  • Excellent source on the subject of chemistry

    Excellent source for the home chemist !! Very well presented with the information needed to get novice and semi skilled off on the right path to safe chemistry!! Even those who are graduate chemist would appreciate this work presented within the pages of this book!! One can use the text here and branch off in further areas to a more in depth study, or point them in the direction for a future to pursue. Very well could lead to further schooling in the subject. At the very least it will give anyone a taste of what real chemistry is about, with a hands on guide into chemistry in a novice format .
