1.0 out of 5 stars
Strewn with careless errors,
By A Customer
This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Chemistry Foundations (Schaum's) (Paperback)
Within the first two chapters of this book, someone with no prior knowledge of mathematical manipulation of fractions will end up pulling out his or her own hair while trying to match his or her answers to that of the author. Careless errors make this item not worth purchasing. Be warned
