DESCRIPTION:
The non traditional approach of "Chemistry in Context" reflect today's technological issues and the chemistry principles imbedded within them. Global warming, alternate fuels, nutrition, and genetic engineering are examples of issues that are covered in "CIC".. Following in the tradition of the first five editions, the goal of this market leading textbook, "Chemistry in Context, Fifth Edition", is to establish chemical principles on a need-to-know basis within a contextual framework of significant social, political, economic and ethical issues
Good Book for Learning Basic Chemistry This book has standard college textbook features - key terms, chapter exercises, indexes, 'Did You Know' boxes and references to external information. It's pretty accurate for an older book. Pictures and graphs are helpful. Text is good and difficult concepts are explains. The chapters are very long and include a great deal of information per subsection, each subsection has some learning box, aide or external reference.. shannonTwo Stars shannon4040 Required more chemistry knowledge than expected as this was a required test for a 100 level chem class.. 0Two Stars shannon4040 Required more chemistry knowledge than expected as this was a required test for a 100 level chem class.. 0 said Two Stars. Required more chemistry knowledge than expected as this was a required test for a 100 level chem class.. "Very satisfied" according to J. Immel. The paperback edition came in very good condition, with little use to the cover. I thought maybe for it being the paperback edition, considering, the price was slightly high, but better than I could find in a bookstore. Shipping took about 10 days, but arrived within the allotted time.
