This innovative, pedagogically driven text explains difficult concepts in a student-oriented manner. The book offers a rigorous and accessible treatment of general chemistry in the context of relevance. Chemistry is presented visually through multi-level images--macroscopic, molecular and symbolic representations--helping students see the connections among the formulas (symbolic), the world around them (macroscopic), and the atoms and molecules that make up the world (molecular). KEY TOPICS: Units of Measurement for Physical and Chemical Change;Atoms and Elements; Molecules, Compounds, and Nomenclature;Chemical Reactions and Stoichiometry;Gases;Thermochemistry;The Quantum-Mechanical Model of the Atom;Periodic Properties of the Elements;Chemical Bonding I: Lewis Theory;Chemical Bonding II: Molecular Shapes, Valence Bond Theory, and Molecular Orbital Theory;Liquids, Solids, and Intermolecular Forces;Solutions;Chemical Kinetics;Chemical Equilibrium;Acids and Bases;Aqueous Ionic Equilibrium;Gibbs Energy and Thermodynamics;Electrochemistry;Radioactivity and Nuclear Chemistry;Organic Chemistry I: Structures;Organic Chemistry II: Reactions;Biochemistry;Chemistry of the Nonmetals;Metals and Metallurgy;Transition Metals and Coordination Compounds MARKET: Appropriate for General Chemistry (2 - Semester) courses.
The book also includes a number of innovative features, including interactive exercises and real-world applications, designed to enhance student learning.
The second edition of The Chemistry of Soils, published in 2008, has been used as a main text in soil-science courses across the world, and the book is widely cited as a reference for researchers in geoscience, agriculture, and ecology.

In What is Chemistry? he encourages us to look at chemistry anew, through a chemist's eyes, to understand its central concepts and to see how it contributes not only towards our material comfort, but also to human culture.
The Ninth Edition also retains McMurry's hallmark qualities: comprehensive, authoritative, and clear. McMurry has developed a reputation for crafting precise and accessible texts that speak to the needs of instructors and students.
The book presents an array of discoveries, theories, and technological applications as it traces the evolution of the "central science"--Publisher's description.
She's daring them to change the status quo. Laugh-out-loud funny, shrewdly observant and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters, Lessons in Chemistry is as original and vibrant as its protagonist.
