Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Textbook suitable for an independent course in applied inorganic chemistry or as a complement to a standard text in a full-year course on inorganic chemistry introduces basic principles of applied inorganic chemistry that are of continuing (rather than ephemeral) relevance. Assumes a background of first-year general chemistry and introductory organic chemistry. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
