This handbook is written for any student between the ages of 15 and 19 studying Chemistry. Its content meets the core chemistry requirements of IGCSE, IBDP, A-Level and AP courses. The material will also help an undergraduate whose course requires a basic foundation in Chemistry. It offers an alternative, succinct perspective to enable students to understand key concepts and can be used as a concise reference resource or a review guide. Each topic contains comprehensive explanations supported by diagrams and worked examples. The final sections of the book hold useful reference material for experimental work and offer guidance on how to write laboratory reports. There is also a series of practice calculation questions with solutions.

The demonstrations capture interest, teach, inform, fascinate, amaze, and perhaps, most importantly, involve students in chemistry. Nowhere else will you find books that answer, "How come it happens? . . . Is it safe? . . . What do I do with all the stuff when the demo is over?"
Shakhashiri and his collaborators offer 282 chemical demonstrations arranged in 11 chapters. Each demonstration includes seven sections: a brief summary, a materials list, a step-by-step account of procedures to be used, an explanation of the hazards involved, information on how to store or dispose of the chemicals used, a discussion of the phenomena displayed and principles illustrated by the demonstration, and a list of references.

This book presents historical and conceptual considerations about some of the topics of a general chemistry syllabus used by the authors as introductory lectures to the said course. On the basis of their teaching experiences, the authors have arranged their ideas, so as to make the salient points of scientific disciplines like chemistry clear and easily used. In other words, their considerations may be employed as outlines of lectures on specific issues, which are to be completed by adding pertinent explicative examples and reading passages. To conclude the discussion of this subject, the authors also give some ideas as to considering a cultural approach to the teaching of chemistry, which they consider very important, and in general their proposal to improve the present way of teaching scientific disciplines.

Young people intuitively understand that matter takes different forms - water, for example, can be liquid, solid ice, or gaseous steam.
