Description
This solid, yet value-priced paperback gives you the background and confidence you'll need to succeed in chemistry. Stoker focuses on the most important topics-omitting organic and biochemistry chapters-and teaches the problem-solving skills students in this course need. Each topic is developed at "ground level," and continues step by step until the level of sophistication required for a further chemistry course is attained.

Person
Stephen Stoker of Weber State University in Ogden, UT, has taught the gamut of introductory chemistry courses, specializing in GOB, for the past 30 years. Weber State has a very large Health Professions school, and GOB is geared at students with little or no experience in chemistry (notably Allied Health and Nursing majors).
