The New edition of this classic book has been thoroughly revised,
but remains faithful to the principles that have established it as
a favorite among teachers and students around the world. It
provides a concise and relevant treatment of inorganic chemistry
and is written with such clarity that it is undoubtedly among the
easiest to read of its competitors.
The book is organized into six 'Parts': theoretical concepts and
hydrogen; the s-block; the p-block; the d-block; the f-block; and
other topics (the nucleus and spectra). To make sections easy to
find, the text ids divided into a large number of chapters and
includes a comprehensive index, a detailed table of contents and
around 600 references classified according to complexity.
An important aspect of this book is its concentration on the
commercial exploitation of inorganic chemicals, something
noticeably missing among other texts at this level. In this new
edition that strength has been built on and much of the coverage in
this area has been extended and brought up to date. Interest in
environmental chemistry has continued to escalate since the last
edition and this is reflected in increased coverage of the
inorganic aspects of the subject. Every chapter in the book has
been revised and updated and it now follows the IUPAC
recommendation that the main groups and the transition metals be
numbered from 1 to 18.
The guiding principle of the numerous changes to this new volume
has been to ensure that treatment of material is always simple,
straightforward and relevant. The result is a book which can be
used with confidence by those who require a thorough grounding in
inorganic chemistry and its importance to themodern world.
