5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for Chemical Engineering
Verified PurchaseI bought a used book in good condition. It doesn't have the chart at the back as expected, but the book is in a very good shape. The 7th edition is better than the 8th edition, there are topics that are removed and shortened in the new edition. Any edition of this book will help you when you study and practice. Answer all the problems in the book and it will help you a lot.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book
Verified PurchaseThis book it pretty tough to get through for chemical engineers because you likely don't have any prior experience. However the material covers everything you need to know for your major. After this you pretty much know what you're going to get in future chemical engineering classes. Its also a pretty well written book, a bit thick so you might have to read it over a few times. It may not seem like it at the time but this is one of the most helpful chem. engineering books you'll ever use. We used it in our introductory chemical engineering class at UC Berkeley.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything I was expecting
Verified PurchaseI needed this book for a Chemical Engineering class at RIT. It was hardcover, nicely packaged with foam and bubble wrap so there were no dinged corners. It came with the sheet of equations and the CD-rom. I bought the New version, so it came with everything as if I had gotten it from my school book store. Also, there was an estimated 2 weeks delivery. But they got it shipped within a day and I had it on my doorstep in less than a week!
