Chemistry in context : Applying chemistry to society

Chemistry in Context is not a traditional chemistry book for non-science majors. In this book, chemistry is woven into the web of life. The chapter titles of Chemistry in Context reflect today’s technological issues and the chemistry principles imbedded within them. Global warming, alternate fuels, nutrition, and genetic engineering are examples of such issues. To understand and respond thoughtfully in an informed manner to these vitally important issues, students must know the chemical principles that underlie the socio- technological issues. This book presents those principles as needed, in a manner intended to better prepare students to be well-informed citizens.
