About the Author
Frederick Bettelheim was a distinguished university research professor at Adelphi University and a visiting scientist at the National Eye Institute. He co-authored seven editions of INTRODUCTION TO GENERAL, ORGANIC, AND BIOCHEMISTRY, ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, and several Laboratory Manuals. He is also the author of EXPERIMENTAL PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY and co-author of numerous monographs and research articles. Professor Bettelheim received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Davis.
William H. Brown is emeritus professor of chemistry at Beloit College, where he was twice named Teacher of the Year. His teaching responsibilities include organic chemistry, advanced organic chemistry, and, more recently, special topics in pharmacology and drug synthesis. He received his Ph.D. from Columbia University under the direction of Gilbert Stork and did postdoctoral work at California Institute of Technology and the University of Arizona. He is a coauthor on ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, 10e (Cengage Learning).
Mary K. Campbell is Professor Emeritus of chemistry at Mount Holyoke College, where she taught biochemistry, general chemistry, and physical chemistry, as well as advised undergraduates working on biochemical research projects. Her avid interest in writing led to the publication of many highly successful editions of this textbook. Originally from Philadelphia, Dr. Campbell received her Ph.D. from Indiana University and completed postdoctoral work in biophysical chemistry at Johns Hopkins University. Her areas of interest include researching the physical chemistry of biomolecules, specifically, spectroscopic studies of protein-nucleic acid interactions. She is also coauthor with Shawn Farrell on BIOCHEMISTRY, 7e (Cengage Learning).
Shawn O. Farrell, a native of Northern California, received his B.S. in biochemistry from University of California, Davis, studying carbohydrate metabolism. He completed his Ph.D. in biochemistry at Michigan State University, where he focused on the study of fatty acid metabolism. Dr. Farrell became interested in biochemistry while in college, as it was relevant to his passion for bicycle racing. He raced competitively for 15 years and now officiates bicycle races worldwide. He has taught biochemistry lecture and laboratory courses at Colorado State University for 16 years and now works for USCycling. Professor Farrell has written scientific journal articles about specific research projects and about laboratory teaching, as well as articles for sports publications, such as "Salmon, Trout, and Steelheader" magazine. He is co-author with Mary Campbell on BIOCHEMISTRY, 7e (Cengage Learning).

I was pleasantly surprised when my textbook arrived. It actually looked, smelled, and felt like a brand new book! The spine of the book is as stiff as that of a new book!My initial thought was that I had messed up and ordered new when my intention was to purchase the best possible used book. I certainly got more than I expected and, even though this is a book that I would never have choosen given a choice, I am very pleased with my purchase. I also ordered the study guide to use along with the textbook, it is in brand new condition as well. There are no pencil marks, highlighting, etc. I'll certainly check here for availability before other sites, in the future.

This book was the required textbook for a class my daughter was taking. The quality was good and she had no issues with it. With the high cost of textbooks these days, Amazon offers some options to save money, which is definitely a plus when it comes to the cost of college.

The cover is a little bit old, so I expected the book will be with some highlights and writing inside as a used book. But it came out that the book pages are very clean and look like new book pages. I really like it. That is exactly what I want.

Science. The book is good. Easy to learn if you have a good Professor, who explains the topics well so one can understand it. The book has answers to questions with an odd numbers, which is helpful to check yourself if you practice the problems.

I bought this edition of the book, other than the new edition. It is basically the same, except some of the problems are numbered differently. I only paid $8 for this copy, compared to $150 for the newer edition.

Was in good quality like they said. Thank you.

Correct book but bought “new” for $50. Arrived written in, bent corners, and still had previous owners test in it!
