Overview
""Biophysical Chemistry is an outstanding book that delivers both fundamental and complex biophysical principles, along with an excellent overview of the current biophysical research areas, in a manner that makes it accessible for mathematically and non-mathematically inclined readers."" Journal of Chemical Biology, February 2009 This text presents physical chemistry through the use of biological and biochemical topics, examples and applications to biochemistry. It lays out the necessary calculus in a step by step fashion for students who are less mathematically inclined, leading them through fundamental concepts, such as a quantum mechanical description of the hydrogen atom rather than simply stating outcomes. Techniques are presented with an emphasis on learning by analyzing real data.

Reviews
Biophysical Chemistry is an outstanding book that delivers both fundamental and complex biophysical principles, along with an excellent overview of the current biophysical research areas, in a manner that makes it accessible for mathematically and non-mathematically inclined readers. (Journal of Chemical Biology, February 2009)
Biophysical Chemistry is an outstanding book that delivers both fundamental and complex biophysical principles, along with an excellent overview of the current biophysical research areas, in a manner that makes it accessible for mathematically and non-mathematically inclined readers. (Journal of Chemical Biology, February 2009) This is strongly recommended as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students with backgrounds in the physical and biological sciences. It will also prove extremely useful to university and high school educators, medical doctors, and researchers who want to go beyond a surface treatment of biological phenomenology to its roots in physics and chemistry. (Doody's, February, 2009) Biophysical Chemistry ist ein herausragendes Lehrbuch, das Grundprinzipien genauso ausfuhrlich erklart wie komplexe biophysikalische Zusammenhange; auch aktuelle Forschungsgebiete kommen nicht zu kurz. Verstandlich auch fur Leser, die keine besonderen mathematischen Fahigkeiten mitbringen. (Journal of Chemical Biology, Februar 2009)
