Description
This student-friendly text has been written to provide a course in chemical literacy. Providing complete yet concise coverage of core topics, it starts students from scratch and assumes only a minimal experience of mathematics and science. The third edition has been fully updated, and includes a new chapter on Forensic Chemistry. It now has a second colour throughout to enhance its many features including diagrams, examples and exercises, and to highlight important points. The third edition also includes direct references in the text to the companion website which accompanies this book.
