Informationen zum Autor The authors: All three content authors are actively involved in first year chemistry teaching at their respective institutions! and are well placed to appreciate the challenges that incoming students face when studying undergraduate chemistry. By bringing together authors from the three 'strands' of chemistry! the book offers consistently authorative coverage across the subject. Andy Burrows! University of Bath (Inorganic chemistry) Andy Parsons! University of York (Organic chemistry) Gareth Price! University of Bath: (Physical chemistry) Klappentext Chemistry³ establishes the fundamental principles of all three strands of chemistry: organic! inorganic and physical. By building on what students have learned at school! using carefully-worded explanations! annotated diagrams and worked examples! it presents an approachable introduction to chemistry and its relevance to everyday life.
