Inorganic Chemistry

Like the Group Theory textbook I ordered, it also is a useful tool to understand Inorganic Chemistry. Without this companion book, I would have nearly failed the course. Also, an essential must have

This textbook would be great for someone who already knows the material, and just needs a review. But, it is impossible to learn inorganic chemistry from this textbook without turning to other sources to fill in details it leaves out. It doesn't teach.

Good

Perfect brand new textbook. It was $100 less than what the book store at school was charging very reasonable price. It came faster than expected I am very happy with it.

This book is a good survey for basically all of the elements, most of it is done by group. I highly recommend this book for undergrad/graduate. What to expect: survey on most of the transition metals, electronics of metals, plus metal magnetism. This book does have an expectation of you to have background in chemistry. At the end of the book there is a section for applications of inorganic chemistry (coordination, catalysis), but it does not go into great detail on those subject. What not to expect: Inorganic reactions, they go surface level on reactions. Details at the end of the book (ie catalysis, that area of study is soooo large its hard to fit in a book) Overall, I highly recommend this book, its very easy to read for a graduate student

Don't forget to factor in import tax! Got a surprise when there was an extra $27 fee when I picked it up from the post office. Otherwise, lovely book. Great condition.

Advertised as the 7th edition however is actually an “international edition” none of the same content, very disappointed, had to purchase another for my class.
