Providing equal coverage of organic, inorganic and physical chemistry - coverage that is uniformly authoritative - this text builds on what students may already know and tackles their misunderstandings and misconceptions. The authors achieve unrivalled accessibility through carefully-worded explanations, the introduction of concepts in a logical and progressive manner, and the use of annotated diagrams and step-by-step worked examples. Students are encouraged to engage with the text andappreciate the central role that chemistry plays in our lives through the unique use of real-world examples and visuals. 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.

Introducing Inorganic, Organic and Physical Chemistry

Chemistry³

Chemistry is widely considered to be the central science: it encompasses concepts from which other branches of science are developed. Yet, for many students entering university, gaining a firm grounding in chemistry is a real challenge. Chemistry� 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� is written by a team of chemists to give equal coverage of organic, inorganic and physical chemistry - coverage that is uniformly authoritative. The approach to organic chemistry is mechanistic, rather than the old-fashioned 'functional group' approach, to help students achieve a fuller understanding of the underlying principles. The expertise of the author team is complemented by two specialists in chemistry education, who bring to the book a wealth of experience of teaching chemistry in a way that students enjoy and understand, and who understand the challenges of the transition from school to university. 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. The authors achieve unrivalled accessibility through the provision of carefully-worded explanations and reminders of students' existing knowledge; the introduction of concepts in a logical and progressive manner; and the use of annotated diagrams and step-by-step worked examples. 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� 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� 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.

The labatory manual and study guide supports your teaching with a broad range of practicals, emphasising saftey and risk assessment. It is an essential companion to Chemistry in Context and can also be used alongside other Advanced Chemistry books. It offers practicals wwith detailed instructions, for openended investigations and opportunities for assessed practical work in the four skill areas of planning, implementing, analysing and evaluating.

Chemistry in Context - Laboratory Manual

Intelligent and perceptive, this examination of the universal truths inherent in all cultures and religions is a powerful, scholarly analysis of Western esotericism’s deepest teachings. John Holman contends that the perennial philosophy is not only at the heart of all world religions, but also of all major schools of thought and writings by the great thinkers and philosophers—no matter how diverse the presentation of their perceived truths. In an accessible way, Holman sheds light on a number of esoteric topics including: The Absolute and the One, the Great Chain of Being, the Philosopher’s Stone, the Seven Spirits, the evolution of consciousness and the Eternal Now—paying particular attention to the subject of time. This thought-provoking book helps us to develop a better understanding of the nature of reality and our potential for transcendence—and revolutionizes the debate on the perennial philosophy.

Three indentures or written contracts, dated 1706, 1742, and 1775, for the lease of tenant farms in the English counties of Cornwall and Gloucester. The first contract, dated Feb. 15, 1706 between Edmund Bray of Great Barrington, Gloucester County, and James Young, acknowledges lease of farm land by Young for a rent of 15 pounds. Names of witnesses appear on verso--John Kutter and J. Wm. Cruse--along with filing information and date. The second indenture, dated simply 1775, records the lease by Peter Bown of Rosemerrin, Cornwall to yeomen William Uran and John Holman of a farm in the "mesnage and tenement" of Roscarrich for yearly rent of 41 pounds. Finally, the last contract between John Hearle and John Dout, both of Cornwall, is a lease of farm land in the parish of Budock for seven pounds. All three indentures stipulate that the lease is for the land only, excluding any mines or minerals found on the property, as well as all timber trees of oak, ash, and elm. In addition, tenants must preserve and maintain the buildings and roofs on the land. Hearle also specifies that he has the right to repossess his land after three months of unpaid rent.

Chemistry3 establishes the fundamental principles of all three strands of chemistry; organic, inorganic and physical. Using carefully-worded explanations, annotated diagrams and worked examples, it builds on what students have learned at school to present an approachable introduction to chemistry and its relevance to everyday life.
