5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent chemistry textbook

I bought this book for my son; I ended up studying the book too. It is written in a very detailed and clear manner. Sample exercises are very explanatory. I also bought the Solution to Exercises.

I was a little confused when I ordered the Solution to Exercises because there are three versions available: 1) Solution to Red Exercises, 2) Solution to Black Exercises, 3) Solution to Exercises. I ordered the third one; it is the solution of both red and black (i.e. ALL) exercises.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great alternative to expensive newer editions!

Perfect! This edition is ‘outdated’ in the eyes of some professors, but the content is very similar to, if not the same as, the newer additions. We were fortunate enough to have a professor who cared about the ridiculous amounts of money the students had to pay for the new addition and allowed them to use this one. Perhaps some of the questions are different, but we have found that the subject matter is the same.
Ask your professor if this edition is acceptable because it can save you hundreds of dollars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't get this item from e-campus!

I've left the seller (e-campus) a 2-star-rated review and guess what??? He blasted at me for leaving him a "false" negative feedback through emails! I was just being honest in the feedback based on the information I was given! Apparently there was a miscommunication between Amazon and the seller. Instead of contacting amazon to resolve the problem to prevent future incident like this, he harrassed me with emails! I mean "What the heck???" So DONT ever buy anything from them - they have a different shipping rate and method than what the amazon market place confirmation will tell you!!!!! If you buy anything from them, check with the seller first about shipping; otherwise, he'll for sure harass you with tons of emails!!! However, the book itself is in the condition as described by the seller - Thank goodness!

This is great book and will recommend for everyone. Starts from basic and gets into pretty detail. There are bunch of questions after each chapter to practice the concepts.
