OverviewChemistry3: Introducing inorganic, organic and physical chemistry, fourth edition, equips students with both the knowledge and skills to engage with and tackle chemical problems across the full breadth of the field. It establishes the fundamental principles of all three strands of chemistry; organic, inorganic and physical. Using carefully-worded explanations, annotated diagrams and worked examples, it builds on what students have learned at school to present an approachable introduction to chemistry and its relevance to everyday life.NEW TO THIS EDITIONAn increased focus on active learning and problem-solving skillsNew Now you try exercises follow worked examples to embed problem-solving skillsNew and updated figures better illustrate and communicate key conceptsUpdated examples of applications that illustrate chemical principlesEnhanced explanations added to clarify some of the more challenging reaction mechanismsOpening chapter thoroughly revised to provide a clear and accessible bridge between school- and university-level studyNew and updated digital resources include over 100 new videos and new online maths problemsNew lecturer resources include open-ended and challenging workshop activities for use in class.This title is available as an eBook.

There are many great examples illustrating the topics. It is a great book to read and study from as a student starting university. This is definitely a book I would buy, read and return to, when I needed an explanation for some basic chemistry. * Michelle Rasmussen, student at the University of Roskilde, Denmark * Plenty of facts and figures are scattered throughout the text which makes reading not solely an educational, but also a fun activity. The examples of real life chemistry applications maintain the connection between theory and practice. The interdisciplinary approach provides a broader chemical understanding while not losing the comprehensiveness of the book. In short, a good all-in-one textbook for first-year students in chemistry. * Jelte van der Valk, student at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands * This material is fantastic and should be used alongside courses. The level of detail is exactly right for undergraduate courses and the colour coding of the boxes for worked examples and summaries make them really easy to find. There are lots of questions for you to have a go at which makes it easy to practice the new skills the book is helping to teach. * Rebecca Snelgrove, student at Keele University * Chemistry3 is the best university chemistry text book for first and second year science students. It is comprehensive and contains all the fundamentals for chemists to know- from analytical to organic chemistry. It is also a student friendly book with tons of pictures and applications of chemistry in the real world. * Christian Nichol J. Geronimo, student at Dublin Institute of Technology * A fantastic all-round reference for university-level chemistry. It is a perfect way to bridge between school and university. * Adam Stubbs, student at Newcastle University * This is an exemplar modern chemistry resource with a very rounded pedagogical approach to engaging students and supporting staff in delivering key chemical concepts and supporting facts. It is a one stop shop for mainstream chemistry fundamentals. * Dr Loretta M. Murphy, Bangor University * Chemistry3 is the best introductory chemistry textbook currently available. It is well written, excels in clarity of presentation, and is an outstanding book from the student learning perspective. All of the concepts covered are well explained and supported by excellent artwork. This is a book that all first and second year chemistry undergraduates should have. * Dr Gareth Owen, University of South Wales * Review from previous edition It is a great textbook for first year courses with really good use of visual aids and excellent provision of worked examples to illustrate the concepts and their applications. It is a perfect transition from A-Level to Higher Education Chemistry. * Dr Rossana Wright, University of Nottingham * Author InformationAndrew Burrows is Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Bath. He completed his first degree and doctorate at the University of Oxford and worked in Strasbourg and Imperial College London before moving to Bath, where he is currently Head of Department. He has taught many aspects of inorganic chemistry, though his current courses focus on s- and d-block chemistry. His research interests are in porous materials such as metal-organic frameworks and he has published over 160 papers. John Holman is Emeritus Professor in the Chemistry Department at the University of York, Past-President of the Royal Society of Chemistry (2016-2018), and Senior Adviser in Education at the Gatsby Foundation. He was the Founding Director of the National Science Learning Centre from 2004 until September 2010, and adviser to the English government as National Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Director from 2006 until September 2010. He has taught learners of chemistry at both school and undergraduate level, has created curricula and written books for science learners up to and including undergraduates, and was the founding director of the Salters Advanced Chemistry programme. In 2014 he was named by the Science Council as one of the 100 leading practising and inspirational UK scientists and in the same year won the Royal Society of Chemistry's Lord Lewis Award and the Royal Society's Kavli Education Award.
