Review
"Seager and Slabaugh is well written, student friendly, and well-organized."
"The authors’ writing style is outstanding. The students and teachers like this book because it is clear and easy to understand,"
"The pedagogical elements of this textbook are very well presented. There is a wide range of choices and the teacher can use or ignore them depending on the teacher’s needs and teaching style. The special topic boxes are very useful teaching tools."
"The ’Chemistry Around Us’ and ’Over the Counter’ boxes were very informative and interesting and should help the student understand the importance of chapter topics."
"Readability and proper level of approach are the main strengths of the text. The extra features (’Chemistry Around Us’ and ’Over the Counter’) are fantastic. The graphics are excellent. The material is accurate and quite up-to-date."

5.0 out of 5 stars
Readable Textbook,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Introductory Chemistry for Today (with CengageNOW 2-Semester Printed Access Card) (Paperback)
Explanations are short and precise. No talking around the busch. I like the textbook with the many illustrations and tables. Each chapter has many practice questions. Advise: buy the solution manual also. I did and it helps me to understand why I did not get to the right answer.
