A clear and friendly writing style, student-focused approach, and real-world, health-related applications have made Karen Timberlake a best-selling author in the allied health market. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry: Structures of Life, Third Editionbreaks chemical concepts into bite-size pieces, with a step-by-step approach that provides clear and thorough understanding; conceptual questions at the end of each chapter test student comprehension of the material. The Third Edition is available with MasteringChemistry , the most advanced chemistry homework and tutorial system available.
Karen Timberlake is Professor Emerita of chemistry at Los Angeles Valley College, where she taught chemistry for allied health and preparatory chemistry for 36 years. She received her bachelor's degree in chemistry from the University of Washington and her master's degree in biochemistry from the University of California at Los Angeles. Professor Timberlake has been writing chemistry textbooks for 33 years. During that time, her name has become associated with the strategic use of pedagogical tools that promote student success in chemistry and the application of chemistry to real-life situations. More than one million students have learned chemistry using texts, laboratory manuals, and study guides written by Karen Timberlake. In addition to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry: Structures of Life, Third Edition, she is also the author of Basic Chemistry, second edition, and Chemistry: An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry, tenth edition with the accompanying Study Guide, Selected Solutions Manual, Laboratory Manual, and Essential Laboratory Manual. Professor Timberlake belongs to numerous science and educational organizations including the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA).
