Review
"The nursing students need to understand how chemistry will affect them and their patients as practicing nurses. I am not satisfied that our students fully understand the reason we require chemistry. They see it as "just another hoop to jump through." I think this textbook did a wonderful job of pulling the nursing students’ interest by showing them the practical side of chemistry."
"The book covers topics in enough detail to satisfy instructional requirements yet is liked by students as it gives them the opportunity to get online help, practice concepts, and enjoy special topic coverage."
"The art program is excellent. This text is easy to read due to the enormous amount of illustrations and diagrams."

Reader Reviews
This review is from: Chemistry for Today: General, Organic, and Biochemistry (with GOB ChemistryNow™ and InfoTrac®) (Hardcover)
The explanations provided in this text book are decent; although, on occasions the book's breadth is insufficient. Unfortunately, the answer keys and test questions that accompany this text are riddled with inaccuracies. After my Organic Chemistry class gets back each test, we spend a half hour eliminating faulty questions. Further, while this book is egregiously expensive, one must pay extra to access the online features.
