1: Awesome.
I don't know what the other peoples problems are with this book, but it is great, and the online addition was very helpful. I learned chemistry from this book without going to class, and I pulled an A in the class. It teaches you the concepts very easily, and shows step-wise procedures in how to answer problems, and not just in a way that limits your ability to solve, but in a manner that promotes general understanding for how to solve a bunch of problems. Great Book, highly recommended.

2: hard to follow...somewhere, I think the author was making a point
The author is way too long winded and the book is hard to follow. I spent lots of time looking online for other explanations to what I was supposed to get from this book. Whoever wrote that it is more of a collection of chemistry stuff than an explanation of the concepts is completely on target. I found "Chemistry: Concepts and Problems: A Self-Teaching Guide (Wiley Self-Teaching Guides)" a wonderful walk through guide that is very understandable and teaches what this Chemistry book of over 1000 pages, just can't get across. I should mention that the online tutorials were too general to be useful and the site was down for 2 weeks when I started class and now has been moved and it will not allow me to access using the same code as before the transfer to a new site. Tech support was not very helpful and just kept telling me to be patient...for two weeks while they fixed the website....horrible experience.

3: Love the Price
I had to buy this book for my chemistry class and it would have been almost $180, but I found it at a great price in good condition from koug58.

4: Chemistry 105 Book
It was exactly what I needed. And it was a way good price. 1/2 the price they sold it for at my school bookstore.

5: If you want to study Chemistry do not get this book
I used this book for General College Chemistry and I would like to say that this is possibly the worst Textbook I have ever used. It is poorly written and is quite simply hard to follow. I would recommend that you purchase an adjunct Chemistry textbook if you are going to use this one.
