Chemistry is widely considered to be the central science: it
encompasses concepts on which all other branches of science are
developed. Yet, for many students entering university, gaining a
firm grounding in chemistry is a real challenge. Chemistry(3)
responds to this challenge, providing students with a full
understanding of the fundamental principles of chemistry on which
to build later studies. Uniquely amongst the introductory chemistry
texts currently available, Chemistry(3)'s author team brings
together experts in each of organic, inorganic, and physical
chemistry with specialists in chemistry education to provide
balanced coverage of the fundamentals of chemistry in a way that
students both enjoy and understand. The result is a text that
builds on what students know already from school and tackles their
misunderstandings and misconceptions, thereby providing a seamless
transition from school to undergraduate study. Written with
unrivalled clarity, students are encouraged to engage with the text
and appreciate the central role that chemistry plays in our lives
through the unique use of real-world context and photographs.
Chemistry(3) tackles head-on two issues pervading chemistry
education: students' mathematical skills, and their ability to see
the subject as a single, unified discipline. Instead of avoiding
the maths, Chemistry(3) provides structured support, in the form of
careful explanations, reminders of key mathematical concepts,
step-by-step calculations in worked examples, and a Maths Toolkit,
to help students get to grips with the essential mathematical
element of chemistry. Frequent cross-references highlight the
connections between each strand of chemistry and explain the
relationship between the topics, so students can develop an
understanding of the subject as a whole. Digital formats and
resources Chemistry(3) is available for students and institutions
to purchase in a variety of formats, and is supported by online
resources. The e-book offers a mobile experience and convenient
access along with functionality tools, navigation features, and
links that offer extra learning support:
www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/ebooks The e-book also features
interactive animations of molecular structures, screencasts in
which authors talk step-by-step through selected examples and key
reaction mechanisms, and self-assessment activities for each
chapter. The accompanying online resources will also include, for
students: * Chapter 1 as an open-access PDF; * Chapter summaries
and key equations to download, to support revision; * Worked
solutions to the questions in the book. The following online
resources are also provided for lecturers: * Test bank of
ready-made assessments for each chapter with which to test your
students * Problem-solving workshop activities for each chapter for
you to use in class * Case-studies showing how instructors are
successfully using Chemistry3 in digital learning environments and
to support innovative teaching practices * Figures and tables from
the book
Using Taiwan as a case study, this book constructs an innovative
theory of a political sociology of language. Through documentary
and ethnographic data and a comparative-historical method the book
illustrates how language mediates interactions between society and
the state and becomes politicized as a result; how language,
politics and power are intertwined processes; and how these
processes are not isolated in institutions but socially embedded.

The renowned Oxford Chemistry Primers series, which provides
focused introductions to a range of important topics in chemistry,
has been refreshed and updated to suit the needs of today's
students, lecturers, and postgraduate researchers. The rigorous,
yet accessible, treatment of each subject area is ideal for those
wanting a primer in a given topic to prepare them for more advanced
study or research. Moreover, cutting-edge examples and applications
throughout the texts show the relevance of the chemistry being
described to current research and industry. This new edition of
Thermodynamics of Chemical Processes is the only self-contained
text to cover the thermodynamics of chemical processes at a level
appropriate for undergraduates. Describing the basic principles
which govern reactivity and phase equilibria in chemical systems,
the text is written at the first year undergraduate level and
contains a number of worked examples and problems to help students
through this introductory material. It shows the application of the
theory to disciplines such as biochemistry, materials science,
environmental science, forensic and analytical sciences. This new
edition places an emphasis on applying the principles and solving
problems rather than on formal proof of theorems and detailed
mathematical understanding. The ideas of enthalpy, internal energy
and entropy are covered to lead into Gibbs free energy and how it
can be used to correlate and predict the equilibrium position and
properties of chemical reactions and multi-phase systems.
Background mathematical ideas are introduced as needed, and the
text includes material describing how the physicochemical
principles can be applied to related areas such as materials
science or biochemistry.
