Chemistry³: Introducing inorganic, organic and physical chemistry de Andrew Burrows

Chemistry³: Introducing inorganic, organic and physical chemistry

Autor Andrew Burrows, John Holman, Simon Lancaster, Tina Overton, Andrew Parsons, Gwen Pilling, Gareth Price
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 sep 2021

Recomandăm Chemistry³ ca resursă fundamentală pentru studenții din primul an de facultate, fiind un instrument esențial pentru pregătirea examenelor și consolidarea unei baze teoretice riguroase. Această a patra ediție se distinge prin capacitatea de a unifica ramurile adesea fragmentate ale chimiei — organică, anorganică și fizică — într-o singură disciplină coerentă. Ne-a atras atenția modul în care autorii abordează direct barierele matematice care îi descurajează frecvent pe studenți; în loc să evite complexitatea, volumul oferă un „Maths Toolkit” integrat și explicații structurate care ghidează cititorul prin calculele esențiale.

Spre deosebire de alte manuale introductive, Chemistry³ pune un accent deosebit pe tranziția lină de la liceu la universitate. Textul identifică și corectează activ erorile conceptuale comune, folosind exemple din lumea reală și fotografii pentru a ilustra relevanța chimiei în viața cotidiană. Cititorii familiarizați cu Chemical Structure and Reactivity de James Keeler vor aprecia abordarea holistică a acestui volum, însă vor găsi în Chemistry³ un suport pedagogic mult mai explicit pentru dezvoltarea abilităților matematice și a tehnicilor de rezolvare a problemelor.

Deși coordonatorul principal, Andrew Burrows, este cunoscut în alte contexte academice pentru lucrări juridice precum Principles of the English Law of Obligations, expertiza sa în structurarea informației complexe se reflectă aici prin claritatea excepțională a expunerii. Volumul nu se limitează la teorie, ci integrează resurse digitale avansate, de la animații moleculare la soluții detaliate, transformând o materie densă de peste 1400 de pagini într-o experiență de învățare interactivă și accesibilă.

De ce să citești această carte

Această carte este ideală pentru studenții la chimie, inginerie sau științe ale vieții care doresc să depășească faza memorării mecanice. Câștigați o înțelegere profundă a principiilor fundamentale și, mai ales, încrederea de a utiliza matematica în context chimic. Este un ghid complet care elimină confuziile specifice primului an de studii universitare, oferind totodată resurse digitale pentru o învățare vizuală eficientă.

Despre autor

Echipa de autori a volumului Chemistry³ este una interdisciplinară, reunind cadre didactice de prestigiu și cercetători activi. Deși numele Andrew Burrows este strâns legat de jurisprudența britanică, fiind profesor de drept comercial la Oxford și autor al unor lucrări de referință precum A Restatement of the English Law of Contract, contribuția sa și a colegilor săi (John Holman, Simon Lancaster, Tina Overton ș.a.) în acest manual de chimie se concentrează pe rigoarea academică și claritatea didactică. Colectivul combină expertiza în chimie organică și anorganică cu strategii moderne de pedagogie, asigurând un echilibru între conținutul științific și nevoile de învățare ale studenților contemporani.

Descriere

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. Chemistry³ 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, Chemistry³'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. Chemistry³ 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, Chemistry³ 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 resourcesChemistry³ 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

Recenzii

Review from previous edition It is a great textbook for first year courses with really good use of visual aids and excellent provision of worked examples to illustrate the concepts and their applications. It is a perfect transition from A-Level to Higher Education Chemistry.
Chemistry3 is the best introductory chemistry textbook currently available. It is well written, excels in clarity of presentation, and is an outstanding book from the student learning perspective. All of the concepts covered are well explained and supported by excellent artwork. This is a book that all first and second year chemistry undergraduates should have.
This is an exemplar modern chemistry resource with a very rounded pedagogical approach to engaging students and supporting staff in delivering key chemical concepts and supporting facts. It is a one stop shop for mainstream chemistry fundamentals.
A fantastic all-round reference for university-level chemistry. It is a perfect way to bridge between school and university.
Chemistry3 is the best university chemistry text book for first and second year science students. It is comprehensive and contains all the fundamentals for chemists to know- from analytical to organic chemistry. It is also a student friendly book with tons of pictures and applications of chemistry in the real world.
This material is fantastic and should be used alongside courses. The level of detail is exactly right for undergraduate courses and the colour coding of the boxes for worked examples and summaries make them really easy to find. There are lots of questions for you to have a go at which makes it easy to practice the new skills the book is helping to teach.
Plenty of facts and figures are scattered throughout the text which makes reading not solely an educational, but also a fun activity. The examples of real life chemistry applications maintain the connection between theory and practice. The interdisciplinary approach provides a broader chemical understanding while not losing the comprehensiveness of the book. In short, a good all-in-one textbook for first-year students in chemistry.
The topics are very thoroughly explained and are at exactly the right level for the student. There are many great examples illustrating the topics. It is a great book to read and study from as a student starting university. This is definitely a book I would buy, read and return to, when I needed an explanation for some basic chemistry.
