ATKINS PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY (12版)

The exceptional quality of previous editions has been built upon to make the twelfth edition of Atkins' Physical Chemistry even more closely suited to the needs of both lecturers and students. The writing style has been refreshed in collaboration with current students of physical chemistry in order to retain the clarity for which the book is recognised while mirroring the way you read and engage with information. The coupling of the broad coverage of the subject with a structure and use of pedagogy that is even more innovative will ensure Atkins' Physical Chemistry remains the textbook of choice for studying physical chemistry. The gold standard physical chemistry text, which evolves with every edition to meet the needs of current students Exceptional mathematical support - including annotated equations, equation checklists, and mathematical resources - enables students to master the maths which underlies physical chemistry The development of problem solving and analytical skills is actively encouraged by frequent worked examples, discussion questions, exercises, and problems A range of other learning features, including video tutorials, brief illustrations, and key concept checklists, are incorporated throughout to aid students in their study of physical chemistry
