Ask A Pharmacist: These Twelve New Articles By Marvin Orrock, Pharm.D., Of Weber State University Take A Closer Look At Prescription And Nonprescription Health-Related Products That Relate The Chemistry Of This Course To The Student’S Future Career In Allied Health Professions. Articles Look At Medications To Avoid On Test Day, Gluten-Free Foods, And Sports Supplements, Among Other Topics.Chemistry Around Us: These Boxed Features Present Everyday Applications Of The Chemistry In The Course With 19 New To This Edition. New Boxes Address Topics Such As Elements Used In Smart Phone Manufacturing, Health Drinks, And Three-Dimensional Printers.Updated Art Program: Revisions To The Art Program Include A New Flow Diagram Style That Makes The Diagrams Easier To Read.Example Titles: To Make Examples Easier To Use And More Helpful For Review And Study, All Worked Examples Now Include A Subject Matter Title.Revised Significant Figures Rules: The Rules For Counting Significant Figures In Chapter 1 Were Revised To Follow The Standard Convention For Treating Trailing Zeros.Case Studies/Case Study Follow Ups: Eight New Case Studies, Including One On Microcephaly, Open Chapters With Real-Life Scenarios That Students May Encounter At Home And At Work. Each Case Study Incorporates Critical Chemistry Concepts From The Chapter In An Exciting Real-Life Scenario Designed To Make The Reader Feel A Part Of The Experience. The Case Studies Require The Student To Make A Decision About What They Would Do If They Were In That Situation. A Follow-Up To Each Case Study Appears At The End Of Each Chapter.New End-Of-Chapter Exercises: A Significant Number Of The End-Of-Chapter Questions Are New And Cover Topics That Are Current, Engaging, And Relevant To Today’S Students.A Unique And Instructive Art Program: "Talking Labels" In The Art Itself Walk Students Through Each Figure, Pointing Out What They Need To See. Explanations Of Figures Are Incorporated Into The Art, Rather Than Appearing In The Caption, To Help Students Follow Processes And Understand Exactly What Is Happening Within Each Figure Without Having To Go Back And Forth Between Figure And Caption.Student-Focused Boxed Features: New “Ask A Pharmacist” Boxes Focus On Medications, Supplements, And Products Found On Drugstore Shelves And At The Pharmacy; "Ask An Expert" Boxes Discuss Important Questions And Answers About Nutrition And Fitness As Related To Chemistry; "Chemistry Around Us" Boxes Present Everyday Applications Of Chemistry; And Updated "Chemistry Tips For Living Well" Boxes Relate To Students' Health And The Health Of The Patients That They May Care For In Their Future Roles As A Part Of The Allied Health Work Force.A Wealth Of End-Of-Chapter Exercises: The Book'S Wide Range Of End-Of-Chapter Exercises Include "Additional Exercises," Which Are Not Tied To A Specific Section And Often Consist Of Problems That Integrate Several Concepts, And "Chemistry For Thought" Exercises, Which Focus On Conceptual And Cumulative Questions And Ask Students To Apply What They Have Learned To A Particular Cumulative Question.
