Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A clear introduction to modern inorganic chemistry. Covering both theory and descriptive chemistry, the text begins with atomic structure, bonding, and stereochemistry and then treats inorganic solids, acids and bases, and bioinorganic chemistry. This second edition includes optional sections on group theory, very thorough discussions of inorganic solids, and expanded material on subjects such as the mechanisms of reactions and bioinorganic chemistry. Presents numerous figures to encourage ``model-thinking'' and provides solved examples.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
