Product Description Mathematical skills and concepts lie at the heart of chemistry, yet they are the aspect of the subject that many students fear the most. Maths for Chemistry recognizes the challenges faced by many students in equipping themselves with the maths skills necessary to gain a full understanding of chemistry. Working from foundational principles, the book builds the student's confidence by leading them through the subject in a steady, progressive way from basic algebra to quantum mathematics. Opening with the core mathematics of algebra, logarithms and trigonometry, the book goes on to cover calculus, matrices, vectors, complex numbers, and laboratory mathematics to cover everything that a chemistry student needs. With its modular structure, the book presents material in short, manageable sections to keep the content as accessible and readily digestible as possible. Maths for Chemistry is the perfect introduction to the essential mathematical concepts which all chemistry students should master.

Mathematical skills and concepts lie at the heart of chemistry, yet they are an aspect of the subject that students fear the most. Maths for Chemistry recognizes the reality of chemical education today and the challenges faced by many students in equipping themselves with the maths skills necessary to gain a full understanding of chemistry. Working from basic yet fundamental principles, the book builds students' confidence by leading them through the subject in a steady, progressive way. Opening with an introduction to the "language" of maths and the essential rules of algebra, the book goes on to cover powers, indices, logs and exponential functions, graphical functions, and trigonometry. It then leads students through both differentiation and integration. The book's modular structure presents material in short, manageable sections to keep the content as accessible and readily digestible as possible. Maths for Chemistry is the perfect introduction to the essential mathematical concepts that all chemistry students should master. A Companion Website for instructors features figures from the book (available for download) and solutions to end-of-chapter problems.

Chemistry for the Biosciences leads students through the essential concepts that are central to understanding biological systems, using everyday examples and analogies to build their confidence in an often daunting subject. Placing an emphasis on clear explanations, it fosters understanding as opposed to rote learning and, by focusing on the key themes that unify the subject, shows how integral chemistry is to the biosciences.

Mathematical skills and concepts lie at the heart of chemistry; however, they are also often the aspects of the subject that students fear the most. Now in a new edition, Maths for Chemistry addresses the challenges faced by many students in acquiring the math skills necessary to gain a full understanding of chemistry. Working from basic yet essential principles, this unique text builds students' confidence by leading them through the subject in a steady, progressive way, moving from basic algebra all the way to quantum mathematics. Employing a modular structure, authors Paul Monk and Lindsey J. Munro present the material in short, manageable sections in order to keep the content as accessible as possible. Opening with an introduction to the "language" of math and the fundamental rules of algebra, Maths for Chemistry goes on to cover powers, indices, logs and exponential functions, graphical functions, and trigonometry before leading students through both differentiation and integration and on to quantum mathematics. It is the first book of its kind to use chemical examples throughout in order to demonstrate the relevance of mathematical concepts to the study of chemistry. The volume is enhanced by definitions of all key terms, self-check questions, and extensive end-of-chapter problems. A Companion Website features additional resources for both students and instructors.

Electrochromic materials, both organic and inorganic, have widespread applications in light-attenuation, displays and analysis. Written in an accessible manner, this book provides a comprehensive treatment of all types of electrochromic systems and their many applications. Coverage develops from electrochromic scope and history to new searching presentations of optical quantification and theoretical mechanistic models. Non-electrode electrochromism and photo-electrochromism are summarised, with updated comprehensive reviews of electrochromic oxides (tungsten-trioxide particularly), metal co-ordination complexes and metal-cyanometallates, viologens and other organics; and more recent exotics such as fullerenes, hydrides, and conjugated electroactive polymers are also covered. The book concludes by examining device construction and durability. With an extensive bibliography, recent advances in the field, modern applications and a step-by-step development from simple examples to sophisticated theories, this book is ideal for researchers in materials science, polymer science, electrical engineering, physics, chemistry, bioscience and (applied) optoelectronics.

Foundations, Fragilities, Futures 'The West in a Nutshell' is a book of thirty reflective essays by Australian author Paul Monk. He subjects the world's mystery and beauty to scrutinizing study. The essays invite the reader to ponder the riches of Western civilisation and they present a distillation of those ideas that are most enduring and powerful in the Western intellectual tradition. Exploring topics from history to religion, sport, poetry, opera, philosophy and geopolitics, Paul beckons the reader into the halls of Western culture.
