There's a classic one:  "Complex variable" written by Churchill.  It's a very understandable book.\n\nHowever if you're looking for something more advanced, "complex variable" written by Conway it's a good option.\n\nIf you do analysis, you can use another classic: "Real and Complex Analysis" of Rudin.

"Human Molecular Biology" by Richard J. Epstein, Cambridge University Press, 2003\n\nThis is a detailed book covering the broad subjects of molecular biology.   Has about 12 pages on polypeptide growth factors  and about 4 pages on hemopoietic growth factors.  It is available on Amazon for about $60 if I remember correctly.\n\nHope this helps.

Applied Therapeutics by Koda-Kimble is a case based pharmacy text.\nThere's also good old Pharmacotherapy by DiPiro which is the gold standard.

Lisa S. Said:\n\n"Amazon lists this one as being highly rated (five stars) --Chemical Engineering Design and Analysis : An Introduction (Cambridge Series in Chemical Engineering) (Paperback)-- around $25 used."\n\nHey!  My first Chem E professor wrote that book!\n\nI'd agree it's a very good book for a first course in ChemE, and it is the only text book I bought that I actually read cover-to-cover.  At Berkeley, that book was used for the introductory course on "Material and energy balances applied to chemical process systems. Determination of thermodynamic properties needed for such calculations. Sources of data. Calculation procedures."\n\nI would definitely second that book as a recommendation.  It does a great job of preparing you for everything else to come, and the line of reasoning is very coherent.  Rather than just throwing some mathematical tools at you, it gives you the sort of comprehension necessary for performing intelligent analysis.

Any on Analytic Geometry. My suggestion is "Analytic Geometry" by Charles Lehmann or "Modern Analytic Geometry" by William Wooton.

I worked with HPLC starting in th days when it was called High Pressure instead of High Performance LC.  I used several chromatographs over a five or ten year period.  It is basically a column chromatograph which is scaled down and uses a pump to move the mobile phase.\nThere are some nice sites which can give you the basics.  In addition there is an on-line forum for asking questions.

Any book from Prentice Hall should be good.\n\nhttp://vig.prenhall.com/catalog/academic/discipline/0,1142,368,00.html\nhttp://vig.prenhall.com/catalog/academic/discipline/0,1142,6,00.html

gas chromatographt (GC) and High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) are different , and to understand why you must think about what chromatography is:\n\nChromatography in its simplest form is like putting ink on blotting paper and watching the colours separate.\nLiquid chromatoraphy uses a "column" which is made from bare or bonded silica, it separates a mixture of compounds by how polar they are. You can use a gradient of different  solvents.\n\nGC also uses a column, but it is a capillary column and instead of using a liquid to carry your mixture which needs to be separated it uses a carrier gas, like nitrogen. You can vary the temperatures in both LC and GC to aid better resolution.\n\nGC is used for more volatile compounds and LC is used more less volatile. HPLC usually refers to reversed phase, normal phase is where the column is vare silica which is very polar. Bonded silica is bonded with hydrocarbons which is non polar.\n\nThe thing to remember is that "like attracts like" so if the column in non polar, the compound to elute first will be the most polar.\n\nTo summarise, they are both separation techniques, one uses gas and the other liquid. You would choose which one to uese depending on how volatile the compounds which you want to separate are.\n\n(^_^)

You might try one of "Shaum's Outline Series" on thermodynamics or physics etc. Here's a list of titles:\n\nhttp://btobsearch.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&btob=Y&isbn=0070507074&itm=1

http://www.archive.org/details/PracticalOrganicChemistry\n\n For homeschooling why would you want an out of date book?  A site like this might be more useful.  \n\nhttp://www.cem.msu.edu/~reusch/VirtTxtJml/intro1.htm
