BASICS OF INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY is comprised of chapters 1-19 of Cracolice and Peters, INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY, Third Edition, and includes David W. Ball's ESSENTIAL ALGEBRA FOR CHEMISTRY STUDENTS, as an appendix. BASICS OF INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY takes an active learning approach through a question-and-answer presentation in which students actively learn the material while reading through the text, rather than reading with the intent to learn later. For example, the authors turn the passive statement "read the author's solution" into the active "work the problem with guided methodology from the authors." This text allows instructors to tailor the order of chapters to accommodate their particular needs. This modularity is achieved not only by carefully writing each topic so it never assumes prior knowledge, but also by including any and all necessary preview or review information needed to learn that topic.
