The thought of taking a course in basic chemistry (secondary or collegiate) usually conjures up feelings of dread for most students….So, what's an instructor to do? Throw in the towel or acknowledge the difficulty many students have with understanding basic chemistry?
The difficulty is all too real, and what doesn't help matters is the fact that most textbooks explain even simple concepts in a confusing manner. Thus, the need arises for an easy-to-understand guide one that could serve as a companion volume to basic chemistry textbooks. Stop Faking It! fits the bill.
The book is focused on making science fun and on helping students and teachers understand not only formulas and rules, but their underlying implications. It manages to present scientific information simply while at the same time diving to an impressive depth of knowledge….This book does a genuinely fine job of breaking down difficult concepts for students struggling with chemistry. It should be utilized as an additional resource or companion guide for any chemistry textbook. Stop Faking It! Chemistry Basics is strongly recommended to anyone with an interest in basic chemistry.
