Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Not recommended
I had to take the course twice at two different colleges. Introductory Chemistry by Cracolice is a much better book. It is more logical, funner, more intelligent, and easier to understand for those who actually wish to learn something. This one is just an excuse of a textbook. Very general, and boring.
