For one-semester courses in Introductory/ Preparatory Chemistry. Written for students who have had little or no previous instruction in chemistry, or for those who need a thorough review, this interesting and informative text gives readers the background (and confidence) needed for subsequent success in a college-level general chemistry course. Honing selected portions for greater clarity in presentation, Stoker's book foregoes the multi-topic, "watered down" version of its counterparts by zeroing in on a smaller number of select topics, treating them extensively, and helping students understand them in greater depth.* NEW - 17 vignettes on "The Human Side of Chemistry" - Brief biographies of scientists who helped develop the foundations of modern chemistry. * Enables students to connect with the "people aspect" of chemistry, and understand how the significant contributions of certain individuals helped make chemistry the exciting and central science it is today. * NEW - A "Chemical Extension" application - Adds perspective to worked-out examples that center on specific compounds. Focuses on the chemical compound itself - its relationship to the environment, its relationship to living systems (biochemistry), etc. * Helps students become aware of the compounds "realness", and not lose themselves in the mathematics of problem-solving. * NEW - Extensively expanded marginal note materials - Provides additional details, links between concepts, or historical information about the concepts under discussion. * Summarizes key concepts and gives students tips for remembering concepts or distinguishing between similar concepts. * Value-priced two-color paperback. * Students get a solid chemistry book for one-third less than most competitors. * A focus on fewer topics - with a more extensive treatment. * Not just watered-down general chemistry. Ensures that students gain a solid grasp of essential, fundamental material. * Begins at the beginning - Begins the development of each topic at "ground level" and continues step-by-step until the level of sophistication required for a further chemistry course is attained. * Students require no prior knowledge of the topic but truly prepares students for their subsequent general chemistry course. * An emphasis on problem-solving throughout - Uses dimensional analysis in problem-solving whenever possible. * Equips students with a powerful and widely applicable tool that requires no mathematics beyond arithmetic and elementary algebra. * A stress on significant figure concepts in all problem-solving situations - Provides two answers to the example: the calculator example (which does not take into account significant digits), and, in color, the correct answer (which is the calculator answer adjusted to the correct number of significant figures). * Emphasizes the importance of precise use of significant figures. * Over 5,000 questions and problems - Counting problem subparts. * Provides students with more opportunities to become proficient at problem-solving than any other text on the market. * Numerous worked-out examples - With detailed commentary. * Students are shown the proper way to mentally dissect and solve a problem. * Two independent, but similar, problem sets - At the end of each chapter; one with answers, one without. Divides chapter-end problem sets into three sections: Practice Problems - single-concept, routine drill problems categorized by topic and arranged in the same sequence as chapter coverage; Additional Problems - more difficult problems that involve more than one concept; Cumulative Skills Section - draws on material covered up to that point, and allows students to practice problem-solving techniques presented earlier. * Provides instructors and students with a variety of problems for both self-study and homework.

This text, aimed at nursing and other allied health majors, boasts a clear, comprehensible writing style and a pedagogical approach that is easy to apply and use. The early chapters of the text focus on fundamental chemical principles. Later chapters, built on the foundation of these basic principles, develop the concepts and applications central to the fields of organic chemistry and biochemistry. The text's pedagogy is supported by graphics features and problem sets that help students learn and retain material.The HM ClassPrep CD-ROM features everything an instructor needs to develop lectures. This cross-platform CD includes PowerPoint slides with text figures, tables, and photos; Animations and simulations; "Chemistry at a Glance" sections; Instructor's Resource Manual; and printed Test Bank.The text's art program helps students visualize the molecular world. The text includes models that more closely match what students see in multimedia resources. Reactions are conveniently color-coded in the organic chapters.Every chapter includes "Additional Problems," giving current users a fresh selection and expanding the range of difficulty in this popular problem category.

Product Description: This useful resource reinforces skills with activities and practice problems for each chapter. After completing the end-of-chapter exercises, students will be able to check their answers for the odd-numbered questions.
