An Integrated Approach

About this book

This revised Sixth Edition presents the basic fundamentals on a level appropriate for college students who have completed their freshmen calculus, chemistry, and physics courses. All subject matter is presented in a logical order, from the simple tothe more complex. Each chapter builds on the content of previous ones. In order to expedite the learning process, the book provides:

  • "Concept Check" questions to test conceptual understanding
  • End-of-chapter questions and problems to develop understanding of concepts and problem-solving skills
  • End-of-book Answers to Selected Problems to check accuracy of work
  • End-of chapter summary tables containing key equations and equation symbols
  • A glossary for easy reference
