N2 - "In this edition, chemistry is so crucial to an understanding of medicine and biology, environmental science, and many areas of engineering and industrial processing that it has become a requirement for an increasing number of academic majors. Furthermore, chemical principles lie at the core of some of the key societal issues we face in the 21st century-dealing with climate change, finding new energy options, and supplying nutrition and curing disease on an ever more populated planet"--; Provided by publisher ER -
