Summary: love it! very helpful!
Review: i'm taking an honors course for Chemistry and i'm only a freshman so that was extremely hard but with this book it really helped explain things and i loved his examples cuz even if you didn't get the scientific reasoning at first, you'll get it by his real-life examples. Also, i love his little tests after every mini-chapter and then a unit test. that was extremely helpful. all in all, the book was worth it and its probably a better book than Idiot's cuz it's actually in a format of how a teacher would teach you it so it's easy to understand and its more reliable cuz u know your teacher is going to teach it just like that since he's a teacher himself. get this book! you won't be disappointed! picture models are included to help understand topics as well as answers and explanations to answers for the tests!

Summary: Superb Help Book !
Review: This is a truly remarkable book. It is as if the author is sitting right next to you and listening to your mind as you read page after page and as questions arise in your mind, the answers begin to unfold. The author anticipates them and answers them.

This is a must book if you wish for a painless refresher on the very basic fundamentals of chemistry explained and taught in a very friendly and understanding style.

Chapter 3 on atomic structure is a masterpiece. You just cannot afford to miss this chapter ! It is the centerpiece of this book as far as I am concerned. The author does not rush. The entire chapter is one that the reader should not miss. It is this chapter that will make readers truly enjoy chemistry.

The chapters that follow cement the concepts so vital to enjoying chmistry.

This book is a must in anyone's collection of useful and helpful books. It is truly a very economic investment and I recommend this book very highly to anyone wishing to get a refresher on basic concepts.
