Not a bad buy:
I thought I had already written a review for this seller but I guess it didn't went through. I bought a book from this seller and was very happy with my purchase.

I am largely comparing it to Koltz and Triechal's... more info
Chemistry is not THIS boring!:

I have found several mathematical and theoretical mistakes among the problems of the book, and as other reviewers have mentioned, it is very simplified and does not encompass more than the basic attributes and applications to whatever laws and theories it covers. The worst thing about this book is the fact that it is just an absolute pain to... more info
