Martin S. Silberberg received a B.S. in Chemistry from the City University of New York and a Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Oklahoma. He then accepted a position as research associate in analytical biochemistry at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City, where he developed methods to study neurotransmitter metabolism in Parkinsons disease and other neurological disorders. Following six years in neurochemical research, Dr. Silberberg joined the faculty of Bard College at Simons Rock, a liberal arts college in Massachusetts known for its excellence in teaching small classes of highly motivated students. As head of the Natural Sciences Major and Director of Premedical Studies, he taught courses in general chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and liberal-arts chemistry. The small class size and close student contact afforded him insights into how students learn chemistry, where they have difficulties, and what strategies can help them succeed. Dr. Silberberg decided to apply these insights in a broader context and established a textbook writing, editing, and consulting company. Before writing his own texts, he worked as a consulting and development editor on chemistry, biochemistry, and physics texts for several major college publishers. He resides with his wife Ruth in the Pioneer Valley near Amherst, Massachusetts, where he enjoys the rich cultural and academic life of the area and relaxes by cooking, gardening, and singing.

Patricia G. Amateis graduated with a B.S. in Chemistry Education from Concord University in West Virginia and a Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from Virginia Tech. She has been on the faculty of the Chemistry Department at Virginia Tech for 28 years, teaching General Chemistry and Analytical Chemistry. For the past 13 years, she has served as Director of General Chemistry, responsible for the oversight of both the lecture and lab portions of the large General Chemistry program. She has taught thousands of students during her career and has been awarded the University Sporn Award for Introductory Teaching, the Alumni Teaching Award, and the William E. Wine Award for a history of university teaching excellence. She and her husband live in Blacksburg, Virginia, and are the parents of three adult children. In her free time, she enjoys biking, hiking, competing in the occasional sprint triathlon, and playing the double second in Panjammers, Blacksburgs steel drum band.

Rashmi Venkateswaran received her B.Sc. (Hon) in Chemistry from Carleton University in Ottawa and her Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Ottawa. She taught at a progressive magnet school in Charleston, South Carolina, and also taught chemistry and physics at Limestone College in South Carolina before returning to Canada, where she was invited to take a position as Senior Instructor and Undergraduate Laboratory Coordinator at the University of Ottawa. In this position, she was encouraged to develop new teaching methods and use emerging technology to improve student learning at the first-year level in large class sections of 420 students. She also redesigned and renewed the first-year laboratory component of the course in both English and French for classes of 2500+ students. Currently, she is focusing on applying novel pedagogical approaches to the teaching of smaller classes for students in first year with little or no previous chemistry background. The smaller groups of 100 to 150 students have allowed her to work more closely with the students and teach in a more personal and collaborative environment. In 2012, Dr. Venkateswaran was nominated by students for the 2012 Capital Educators Award. Prior to writing this text, Dr. Venkateswaran has been a reviewer of many textbooks and journals and has been active in publishing chemistry articles for the general public. She has also written chemistry content for other textbooks. Dr. Venkateswaran is a strong proponent of outreach programs in science for the general public, with a view to reviving interest in science and mathematics in general and chemistry in particular. She performs shows for the public and at schools called The Magic of Chemistry in which she uses chemical demonstrations to illustrate real-life chemistry in a way that encourages interest in both youth and adults. Dr. Venkateswaran also has a B.A. and an M.A. in South Indian Classical Music (Vocal), which she obtained in India after completing her B.Sc. and before beginning her Ph.D. She is a professional performing artist and has given concerts across North America and in India. She relaxes by singing and cooking with her husband, Hari; her son, Amaresh; and her daughter, Nikhila.
