Ann Lewis-Kell reviews the new edition

This recent publication from Wiley is aimed at the US market. It would be suitable for post-16 students who wish to improve their chemical knowledge either as a supplementary resource or to improve their understanding of where the subject fits in to the world around them, for example by looking at what you can do with a chemistry degree.

The book is divided into five sections over 22 chapters. The use of margin icons help the reader to prioritise their learning needs, eg the tip icon for focusing on the easiest way to solve a problem or the remember icon for the most important facts that should not be forgotten.
