4.0 out of 5 stars Great Condition
The book came brand new and had no damage from shipping. I took one star off because it took longer than expected to receive the book, and because it came almost 2 weeks after my classes started when I ordered it almost a week before I moved to the campus it was an inconvenience. Just something to be reminded to order books plenty early.

2.0 out of 5 stars Terrible Book
Terrible textbook. Poor explanation of concepts (e.g. over-complicated), and is fraught with errors. Worse, the answers are not reported with the correct number of sig figs on numerous occasions!

I have two other Chem textbooks that I have used in the past, and I regularly consult them (especially the one by Tro) for better explanations of these topics.

The book was in perfect condition and it was much cheaper than the price listing at my college book store.
