This book is so clearly written that anyone can use it. It breaks each concept down into small steps and explains everything from absolute basics. It also provides test questions so you can make sure you have understood and properly memorised each chapter (which you need to) before moving to the next.
Even if you are quite a moron at chemistry (which I am) you'll be able to understand it by working steadily through this book. It could also be useful to work through at a faster rate for someone who wants a recap/revision book. A really good buy.

Superb Help Book ! 9 Aug 2004
By M. K Yousuf - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is a truly remarkable book. It is as if the author is sitting right next to you and listening to your mind as you read page after page and as questions arise in your mind, the answers begin to unfold. The author anticipates them and answers them.

This is a must book if you wish for a painless refresher on the very basic fundamentals of chemistry explained and taught in a very friendly and understanding style.

Chapter 3 on atomic structure is a masterpiece. You just cannot afford to miss this chapter ! It is the centerpiece of this book as far as I am concerned. The author does not rush. The entire chapter is one that the reader should not miss. It is this chapter that will make readers truly enjoy chemistry.

The chapters that follow cement the concepts so vital to enjoying chmistry.

This book is a must in anyone's collection of useful and helpful books. It is truly a very economic investment and I recommend this book very highly to anyone wishing to get a refresher on basic concepts.

I passed my chemistry class because of this book 1 July 2007
By Jaybird - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I'm in a Registered Nurse program and was struggling to understand chemistry and the textbook that the school had supplied. I had failed one exam and several dry lab assignments so I bought this book, referred to it often, did the exercises and exam questions in it and I ended up passing with an A, but also with the top score in the class! The practice exercises are great because they explain why an answer is correct-that way if you didn't get the right answer the first time you can see what you did wrong. I would recommend this book to any beginning chemistry student

love it! very helpful! 25 July 2004
By P Chan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
i'm taking an honors course for Chemistry and i'm only a freshman so that was extremely hard but with this book it really helped explain things and i loved his examples cuz even if you didn't get the scientific reasoning at first, you'll get it by his real-life examples. Also, i love his little tests after every mini-chapter and then a unit test. that was extremely helpful. all in all, the book was worth it and its probably a better book than Idiot's cuz it's actually in a format of how a teacher would teach you it so it's easy to understand and its more reliable cuz u know your teacher is going to teach it just like that since he's a teacher himself. get this book! you won't be disappointed! picture models are included to help understand topics as well as answers and explanations to answers for the tests!
