Organic Chemistry I As a Second Language: Translating the Basic Concepts

Klein, David M.

Chemistry

John Wiley and Sons

Many students and instructors are overwhelmed by the vast amount of content and concepts presented in General Chemistry. Students often emerge from the course with little understanding of chemical concepts and must be retaught in subsequent courses. This supplemental text can be paired with Olmsted/Williams, Brady, Spencer or any other General Chemistry title. 
David Klein is a lecturer at Johns Hopkins University where he teaches Organic and General Chemistry. He is a dynamic and creative teacher and uses analogy to help students grasp difficult topics. Klein’s unique informal voice and manner of presentation help students truly master key topics in this course. He is also the author of Organic Chemistry as a Second Language; response to this book has been phenomenal.

Sourcebook of Family Theory and Research

Sponsored by the National Council on Family Relations, the Sourcebook of Family Theory and Research is the reference work on theory and methods for family scholars and students around the world. This volume provides a diverse, eclectic, and paradoxically mature approach to theorizing and demonstrates how the development of theory is crucial to the future of family research. The Sourcebook reflects an interactive approach thatfocuses on the process of theory building and designing research, thereby engaging readers in "doing" theory rather than simply reading about it. An accompanying Web site, http://www.ncfr.org/sourcebook, offers additional participation and interaction in the process of doing theory and making science.
