Opis:
* Stresses the relationship between inorganic chemistry and the life processes with discussions of acids and bases, oxidation-reduction, nuclear chemistry and radio-activity, and more. * Explains the various chemical processes taking place in the body during normal and abnormal metabolism. * Discusses the role of ATP in metabolism to illustrate the complex processes that occur 'normally' in the body. * Considers the effects of an excess or deficiency of vitamins and hormones, demonstrating the involved inter-relationships in metabolic processes. * Studies the function of nitric oxide and carbon monoxide as neurotransmitters. * Offers the latest research and findings in a number of areas, such as: o Genetics—genetic diseases, gene splicing, possible methods of treating genetic deficiencies, and updated AIDS statistics. o Radiation technology—how radioisotopes are being used in diagnosis and treatment of diseases. o Electron microscopy. * The text has many practical examples, outlines, summaries, review questions, and references. * In this edition, we've added visual appeal and increased conceptual clarity with improved illustrations and many full-color photographs integrated throughout. * Includes intriguing case histories to further demonstrate real-world applications, add perspective, and deepen students' understanding. * Combines coverage of acid base salts into one chapter. * Updates facts regarding medical theory and procedures.
