Based on feedback from students and professors alike, this introductory textbook has been revised to offer material in a different sequence, and expanded end-of-chapter questions. A major theme of the text is the introduction, explanation and illustration of the problem-solving methods of beginning chemistry. Approaches to solutions chemical problems, and the unit-equation, factor-label or dimensional-analysis methods are explained in detail with numerous examples. Relevant analogies and special topics continue to reinforce, introduce and illustrate chemical concepts.

This publication is an entry-level textbook designed to meet the needs of college students who learned some chemistry in their high school years, but not enough to prepare them for advanced courses in chemistry, or to satisfy the chemistry prerequisite for courses they might want to take in other scientific disciplines. The history of chemistry is emphasized to an unusual degree here primarily to give the narrative a storyline, but its historical emphasis has an important secondary benefit. Much of the vocabulary chemists use to describe chemical phenomena today emerged early in the development of the discipline, when their understanding of them was still in a primitive state. As such, the persistence of these words and the concepts behind them makes sense only in the light of history.
