Mineralogy
Dexter Perkins et al. · University of North Dakota
Minerals are our planet. They form the Earth and the bedrock that we live on, making up all of Earth’s rocks and sediments, and they are important components in soils. So, they literally are the foundations for our lives. Perhaps because they are ubiquitous, most people don’t even notice them or consider that all rock is made of minerals.

Biophysical Chemistry
Serge L. Smirnov and James McCarty · Western Washington University
We wrote this text to serve as the primary source for a series of Biophysical Chemistry courses that we regularly teach as faculty members of the Chemistry Department at Western Washington University, which serve the needs of undergraduate Biochemistry program. The present text is based on the assumption of what WWU Biochemistry majors know and do not know at the time they enter their final year of study toward Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry.
