4.0 out of 5 stars refined and competent, February 3, 2005
This review is from: Chemistry with Online ChemSkill Builder, Eighth Edition (Paperback)
Typically, this book could form the text for a first year undergraduate course in chemistry. Chang covers the 3 major divisions of chemistry - organic, inorganic and physical. Which accounts for the weightiness of the book. Crammed with material that can keep a diligent student quite busy and, hopefully, appreciative.

You are presented with a very refined text, in its 8th edition. Reassuring, because it has successfully come out in so many previous editions. Hence, you can read the text, confident in its proven usefulness to many earlier students.

The online component, ChemSkill Builder, may also be useful to some of you; letting you gauge your understanding.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sufficient practice and clear examples, September 17, 2005
By 
AK "AK" (Matawan, NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chemistry with Online ChemSkill Builder, Eighth Edition (Paperback)
I have used this book for my first year in undergraduate General Chemistry and it has helped me build my basics as well as improving upon them. There are enough problems of each level of difficulty to get sufficient practice. The examples are very helpful to grasp the concept and the extra practice problems further enhance the learning experience. I recommend this book either as a text for a class, or just independent study.
