Sturdy and big capacity. ready for boy scouts camping trip! wheel feature is good to have for transportation.

Disappointed

I thought I was getting a copy of an actual chemistry textbook. However when I went to look through it. I found out I actually received a copy of the solutions to the exercises in the textbook.

Well written introductory course

I am using editions 8 and 9 of this title to teach chemistry to some very bright homeschoolers. It seems to be a great book for the advanced student. I find it well organized, methodical, and clearly written. I would not recommend it for the student who is weak in science/math, as it covers a lot of ground. Still, if your student is homeschooling because school is too slow, go for it. If you buy used, be very sure you are getting the disk, it's an essential element of the curriculum.

Finally, a readable Chemistry text...

I used this book for Chemistry II (second semester General College Chemistry). Compared to my first semester text, this is the best text ever. College chemistry is designed to be difficult, the books shouldn't be. My 1st textbook talked and discussed as if we were Master's student's majoring in chemistry... not freshman. This text speaks generally in ENGLISH and not in Chemistry jargon like so many textbooks do. You won't get all the unneccessary information that many other texts have, and the author's seem like they actually want you to learn chemistry... not a common idea in chemistry texts or by professors. Of course, as with any college level text, a basic high school chemistry course is recommended before taking or reading this text... Enjoy!!!

The Tool to Pass General Chemistry

This book is simply great. i've seen one or two other books during my two years of study in chemistry (AP and college), and this book was the best. The concepts are presented so clearly, great diagrams, and great problems at the end. The book is VERY student friendly. If you read it carefully, it'll help you greatly in studying (and passing) AP or college level chemistry.

very comprehensive

I checked several chemestry text books at university and found this one to be the most thorough and clear of all.
