About the Book

In INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY: AN ACTIVE LEARNING APPROACH, Cracolice and Peters use a question-and-answer format so readers can actively learn chemistry. This approach is reflected in three words of advice and encouragement that are repeated throughout the book: Learn It Now! Each chapter includes an Everyday Chemistry section that illustrates how chemistry is applied in daily life. The fourth edition integrates new features such as technological resources, coached problems, and enhanced art and photography, all of which dovetail with the authors' active learning approach.
