Basic concepts of chemistry

Basic Concepts of Chemistry began life in 1981 as a text directed at students in a preparatory chemistry course. That is, it was intended for those planning to proceed to a main-sequence chemistry course, but who had little or no background in chemistry or who had a significant interruption of their studies

A Human Perspective MICROBIOLOGY

About a dozen years have elapsed since the last revision of our previous texts. Over the interim, several good microbiology texts by other authors have come and gone. Now, once again, there is a need for an authori- tative, up-to-date microbiology book for introductory students who have little background in chemistry and biology, a book that is easy to read, conveys the important microbiological principles and concepts without excessive detail, and eliminates unnecessary scientific jargon.

Foundations of Physical Geography

The geographic thrust is met in a number of ways. The spatial focus of the subject is emphasized by the use of maps and three-dimensional diagrams. Exam- ples and cases from across the United States and from other parts of the world illustrate distributions of phe- nomena and differences among places.

Elementary algebra: Structure and Use

This is an introductory text in algebra written for students with no background in algebra and for students who need a review before proceeding further. The improvements in this fifth edition evolved out of generous responses from users of the fourth edition. Most of the changes in this edition have been made with an eye toward making the text even more accessible to students with minimal background and to provide a better transition to material covered in subsequent courses, intermediate algebra courses in particular.

Fundamentals of physics

You are about to begin your first college level physics course.

UNDERSTANDING BIOLOGY

Most teachers who lecture to introductory biology classes have been tempted at one time or another to begin by reading to the class the "Science" section of the daily newspaper. Today's paper, for example, re- ports the identification of the gene that causes cystic fibrosis, a fatal genetic disorder that affects more than 30,000 people in the United States today. For years sci- entists have been searching for the gene, which is car- ried silently by an estimated 1 in every 20 Caucasians; studying it may provide clues that will eventually lead to a cure. This discovery is of great interest to every student in a freshman biology class; to premeds and English majors and students majoring in dance. They all want to know about cystic fibrosis, and also about AIDS and cancer and genetic engineering, because these issues affect their lives. They want to learn enough biol- ogy to understand the newspapers and magazines they read.

World Religions A Voyage of Discovery

Human walues

When the course generated more than usual interest among students and faculty, and was approved by the Core Curriculum Committee, we were awarded a University Faculty Development Grant in the summer of 1984. Several colleagues, among them our associate editors, joined us in an intensive seminar to review texts, suggest new readings, and discuss methodology in the teaching of the course material. We then set to work and collected our texts in Human Values in Western Culture: I (1987), Human Values in Western Culture: II (1988), and Human Values in Western Culture: I Revised (1988).
