An excellent textbook: very easy to read and fosters great understanding. Physical chemistry can be a very mathematical and complex area, but this textbook makes it easy to understand and is something I see myself using to help me carry out both lab work and physical chemistry questions. * Sophie Shearlaw, student, University of Strathclyde * This book continuously improves and makes the learning process enjoyable. There are countless examples and exercises which can provide enormous support to both learners and lecturers. * Milan Antonijevic, lecturer, University of Greenwich * The explanation of the concepts is great. The examples are really helpful: the authors really address almost every way in which the equations could be used. Truly a helpful textbook. * Eva Pogacar, student, Heriot-Watt University * Covers all the topics that you would want in an undergraduate course on physical chemistry. It includes succinct overviews of mathematical concepts that students need to understand, and is extremely well-organised, breaking material into manageable sections. * Kristin Dawn Krantzman, lecturer, College of Charleston * This textbook has always been, and continues to be, an excellent physical chemistry textbook. I highly recommend. * Mikko Linnolahti, lecturer, University of Eastern Finland * Extremely useful Physical Chemistry textbook. Contains helpful overviews of useful equations and concepts. Schematics break down concepts and are good to support learning. Detailed content throughout. * Gabrielle Rennie, student, University of Strathclyde *
