Sociology 101 - K.Harrison - JJC
Kimberly Harrison · Joliet Junior College
Sociology is the study of social behavior or society, including its origins, development, organization, networks, and institutions. It is a social science that uses various methods of empirical investigation and critical analysis to develop a body of knowledge about social order, disorder, and change. Many sociologists conduct research that may be applied directly to social policy and welfare, while others focus primarily on refining the theoretical understanding of social processes.

Organic Chemistry with a Biological Emphasis
Tim Soderberg · University of Minnesota Morris
In this online textbook, a unique approach is taken to the study of organic chemistry. To the greatest extent possible, biological molecules and biochemical reactions are used to explain and illustrate the central concepts of organic chemistry. This approach covers the main organic reaction mechanisms in a biological context. However, earlier chapters on organic structure and spectroscopy also focus as much as possible on examples of interest to students of biology and the health sciences.
