Paul Monk and Lindsey J. Munro

Paul Monk has teamed up with Lindsey J. Munro to prepare a second edition of his highly popular Maths for Chemistry: A chemist's toolkit of calculations

The second edition has nearly doubled in size relative to the first, owing to the inclusion of some additional topics - both at the introductory and more advanced level - as well as more examples and self-tests. Certainly, some of the advanced level topics go beyond the first year syllabus of most undergraduate chemistry degrees. This is advantageous as many students are unable to purchase multiple support texts alongside the main chemistry textbooks they need. However, there are some peculiarities about both the layout and order of the chapters that will make the book difficult for some students to use.
