5.0 out of 5 stars Fine presentation of chemistry for review
I was searching for a book that would serve as a review for a basic chemistry class I took years ago. I still remembered some of the concepts, but not in enough detail to be comfortable with information I was studying in neuroscience. I came across this book and found exactly what I needed -- everything is covered, even some organic, in a neat, easy to follow layout...

1.0 out of 5 stars middling review
The high density of topics with just
a cursory treatment is far less helpful
than just consulting wikipedia or the
relevant schaum's outline. You must
already have had a working knowledge
of chem for this to have any benefit
whatsoever.

This review is from: Instant Notes in Chemistry for Biologists (Paperback)
I was searching for a book that would serve as a review for a basic chemistry class I took years ago. I still remembered some of the concepts, but not in enough detail to be comfortable with information I was studying in neuroscience. I came across this book and found exactly what I needed -- everything is covered, even some organic, in a neat, easy to follow layout. Lots of diagrams, lots of explanation. The writing is precise, with no words wasted, as each concept is presented, explained, and associated with related processes. A good book for anyone reviewing chemistry or wanting a quick, reasonably complex introduction.
