This fourth edition of General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry: An Integrated
Approach has, like the earlier editions, been written for students preparing for
careers in health-related fields such as nursing, dental hygiene, nutrition, occupational
therapy, athletic training, and medical technology. The text is also suitable for students
majoring in other fields where it is important to have an understanding of chemistry and
its relationship to living things. Students who use this text do not need to have a previous
background in chemistry but should possess basic math skills. For those whose math is
a bit rusty, the text provides reviews of the important material. While designed for use
in one-semester or two quarter General, Organic, and Biochemistry (GOB) courses,
instructors have found that it also works well for one-year courses, especially when combined
with the supplement Chemistry Case Studies for Allied Health Students by Colleen
Kelley and Wendy Weeks.
In a GOB course it is essential to show how the subject matter relates to the students’
future careers. For that reason, this text makes extensive use of real-life examples from the
health sciences.
