Carbohydrates are probably nature's most common product. Plants and algae biosynthesize millions of tons of them every year. Carbohydrates are stores of energy and structural building blocks; they are versatile enough to serve as encoders of biological information and, last but not least, they are involved in recognition processes at a molecular level. Research into carbohydrate and glycoconjug…
“This book is about how to teach physics effectively. The intended audience is any physics teacher who is interested in learning about recent developments in physics education… Rather, it is a book with a variety of tools for improving both teaching and learning of physics.”
