Maison d'édition: Publishdrive

Synopsis

Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, and reactions of organic compounds, which are molecules that contain carbon. Organic chemistry is a vast and complex field, but it is also incredibly fascinating and rewarding. In this book, we will explore the fundamentals of organic chemistry, from the basics of molecular structure to the complex reactions that occur in living organisms.

We will begin by examining the structure of organic molecules. We will learn about the different types of atoms that can bond to carbon, and how these atoms can arrange themselves to form different functional groups. Functional groups are groups of atoms that have characteristic properties and reactivities. By understanding functional groups, we can begin to understand how organic molecules behave.

Next, we will explore the reactions of organic molecules. We will learn about the different types of reactions that can occur, and how these reactions can be used to synthesize new molecules. We will also learn about the factors that affect the rates and mechanisms of reactions.

Finally, we will explore the applications of organic chemistry. We will learn how organic chemistry is used to develop new drugs, materials, and fuels. We will also learn about the role of organic chemistry in everyday life, from the food we eat to the clothes we wear.

**Organic Chemistry for Life** is a comprehensive introduction to the chemistry of life. This book is perfect for students who are interested in learning more about organic chemistry, as well as for anyone who wants to understand the role that organic chemistry plays in our everyday lives.

Subjected to Science - Human...

Susan E. Lederer

The first full-length history of biomedical research with human subjects in the period "before Tuskegee"—from 1890 to 1940 
 
 
 
Long before the U.S. government began conducting secret radiation and germ-warfare experiments, and long before the Tuskegee syphilis experiments, medical professionals had introduced—and hotly debated the ethics of—the use of human subjects in medical experiments. In Subjected to Science, Susan Lederer provides the first full-length history of biomedical research with human subjects in the earlier period, from 1890 to 1940. 
 
 
 
Lederer offers detailed accounts of experiments—benign and otherwise—conducted on both healthy and unhealthy men, women, and children, including the yellow fever experiments (which ultimately became the subject of a Broadway play and Hollywood film), Udo Wile's "dental drill" experiments on insane patients, and Hideyo Noguchi's syphilis experiments, which involved injecting a number of healthy children and adults with the syphilis germ, luetin.
