DESCRIPTION:
Many many errors in this book. I am using this book for a non-majors chemistry class. It was adopted by the department and I was assigned to teach the class too late to change the book.The distribution of topics is nice for a non-scientific class. However, there are *many* errors in . Terrible textbook. I had to use this textbook for one semester of chemistry. If it wasn't for the internet I would have failed this class. I ended up watching lots of videos on you tube and khan academy, and downloaded a different textbook (free, not pirated) off the inte. College Student said Nice book. Can't tell you that I am absolutely in love with this book since it's just something I need to have for class but it has some nice examples. ect.
Based on student and faculty feedback from nationwide interviews and focus groups, CHEM was developed through a "student-tested, faculty-approved" process. CHEM delivers exactly what today's students need --and want. The result is a concise, engaging, and accessible textbook that presents the basic chemical principles faculty require within a framework of relevant, real world applications that liberal arts students can relate to. Delivered at a value price, CHEM accommodates the diverse lifestyles of today's learners, features a modern, open page design, and includes a wide array of print and online learning aids, including chapter-by-chapter study cards, self-quizzes, interactive flash cards, Go Chemistry and Thinkwell mini-video lectures, and online homework available through the OWL learning system.
