eractions, Physical Chemistry for the Life Sciences, Third Edition, explains how the principles of physical chemistry apply to the processes of life. It offers worked examples and multiple case studies throughout, helping students master even the most complex concepts--showing how they apply in biological contexts--and acquire key problem-solving and mathematical skills.

Directly addressing the main challenges faced by students, this book's pedagogically rich approach provides an accessible and holistic guide to the subject. The extended scope of this new edition includes the essential techniques that can be used to characterize biological systems, including biochemical spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, and spectrometry.
