Résumé

This best-selling text, now in its Ninth Edition, makes chemistry exciting to students by showing them why important concepts are relevant to their lives and future careers. Timberlake's Guide to Problem Solving, visual solution pathways, new InterAct Math web problems, Visualizing the Chemistry questions, and a host of media tools enhance the new edition. It also retains the many features that have made the book so successful: a clear and friendly writing style, a modernized design, Career Focus features, macro-to-micro art work, modern applications and pedagogical tools, and extensive media resources. The book is most suited to the one-semester allied health sequence.
