The book goes into detail with adequate explanation so that a person having done GCSE/A-level chemistry can easily understand the material discussed. The structure of the book is also attractive as it has set sections that flow into one another. This makes more sense to the reader in learning new theories. Explanations and important theories are given as key points which are highlighted differently from the text. The use of colour gives it a "warm" feeling which keeps the user/reader interested in the material, as some of the material can be quite boring to learn. -- First year Dental Student
First off, I feel that the whole Collage Textbook process in this country is a scam. There is no reason for a textbook to cost up to a third of the price of the class you are taking. That being said searching early and shopping around, all though time-consuming can save you tons. For example, the new price at my campus bookstore was a little over $200, and the used price was $151! I was able to get it here on ebay for $70; and I’ll be able to sell it back later either at the campus bookstore or online and make that money back! Now about the book; I’ve read a bit of it and have found that even though the writing style is a bit technical, it is very thorough and has some great examples. There are plenty of color diagrams to assist you and several problems to challenge your intellect. The only downside about the problems is that the solutions in the back of the book are a little lacking. For that may I suggest looking for the “Selected Solutions Manual” by a VCU professor, Joseph Topich. He has gone through the book and given great detail on how to come up with the answer, a good resource to check out the way you did yours and compare the two to figure out if you were right or where you went wrong.Read full review
I bought the book for my Chemistry 1210 class, and did not want to pay the price that the college book store wanted for their copy. The book was way over priced. I am very pleased with this textbook because it explains things simply and in a way that is easier for me to understand. I have seen many text-books where you can't make heads or tail on how to do the problem or other words the text books are vague as to how to perform the problem. This chemisty book explains them. I really like how the book is organized, the coloring, and the photos. These three aspect really make the book attractive and interesting to read. It is alot easier to read than other textbooks.
it's good. I've learned a lot from it , it has a lot of question in the back of the book, However, the only problem that i had with it id that the book doesn't have a lot of examples, so you can do them and practice , then you check your answer because the question in the back don't have an answer,s o you gotta go and ask your teacher.
Very good service. Came before estimated date. ------I bought the NewPhone 74205 three weeks ago and was immediately impressed with the number of features available on this inexpensive phone. It has a 1M-pixel camera, video camera, and speakerphone. The NewPhone's size is perfect for carrying in a pocket and the battery has a pretty good lifespan of roughly 4 hours. My only complaint is that the menu system on the phone makes you click four times before you can find someone in the address book, set an alarm, or perform a additional functions. Other phones I've owned have simpler menus and get you to important features easily. Overall, I'd recommend the phone if you're on a budget.
