Introduction to Modern Inorganic Chemistry, 6th edition by Ra Mackay
This popular and comprehensive textbook provides all the basic information on inorganic chemistry that undergraduates need to know. For this sixth edition, the contents have undergone a complete revision to reflect progress in areas of research, new and modified techniques and their applications, and use of software packages. Introduction to Modern Inorganic Chemistry begins by explaining the electronic structure and properties of atoms, then describes the principles of bonding in diatomic and polyatomic covalent molecules, the solid state, and solution chemistry. Further on in the book, the general properties of the periodic table are studied along with specific elements and groups such as hydrogen, the 's' elements, the lanthanides, the actinides, the transition metals, and the "p" block. Simple and advanced examples are mixed throughout to increase the depth of students' understanding. This edition has a completely new layout including revised artwork, case study boxes, technical notes, and examples. All of the problems have been revised and extended and include notes to assist with approaches and solutions. It is an excellent tool to help students see how inorganic chemistry applies to medicine, the environment, and biological topics."Overall the chemistry is very solid in this book. . I would definitely recommend that this book be stocked in a university library."
– Brian Murphy, Department of Chemistry, UAE University, in Physical Sciences Educational Review, Vol. 6, No. 1
"What is attractive about this book? First, it provides an exhaustive overview of the fundamental bases of inorganic chemistry. Second, boxes located in the margins or in the middle of pages provide enlightening facts about inorganic chemicals as they relate to everyday life…I am convinced these linkages between inorganic chemistry and real life are essential for attracting talented young students to the field"
