He has won numerous honors including several study sections with the National Institutes for Health and was selected for Who’s Who Among America’s Teachers. \u003ci\u003eBiophysical Chemistry\u003c\/i\u003e presents physical chemistry through the use of biological and biochemical topics, examples, and applications to biochemistry. It presents a rigorous, up-to-date treatment of the material without presuming a strong prior knowledge of math theory. Necessary calculus models are laid out in a step-by-step fashion for students less confident in their math abilities. The format of the text allows teachers ample flexibility in deciding which derivations to present in class. Students are guided through an in-depth understanding of fundamental concepts – such as a quantum-mechanical description of the hydrogen atom – and techniques are presented with an emphasis on learning through analysis of real data. Cases are drawn from timely research areas in biochemistry using an integrated approach to problem solving. Every chapter features important recent advances in biochemistry, an examination of current research problems, math and derivation boxes to guide students, and examples of both numerical and concept-based problems.
