Clive Bullock reviews this useful resource for A-level students
General, organic, and biochemistry. Connecting chemistry to your life (2nd edn)

As its name suggests, this is really three books in one and aims to provide a comprehensive, one-year course in general and organic chemistry and biochemistry for students of the biomedical and environmental sciences. The level is not specified but I would be happy if my first-year biomedical undergraduates were familiar with the topics covered in its 800 pages. The text is also accessible enough to make this a useful reference resource for A-level chemistry and biology students.
