Chemistry For Dummies January 19, 2009 Sue D. Webb 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It is such a detailed book. I used to think I knew a lot about chemistry, but when I read Chemistry For Dummies, I learned a lot more. Thanks John T. EdD Moore.

Insulted by Cover! May 15, 2008 Tony Dent (Dresher, PA USA) 2 out of 56 found this review helpful
Sorry, but I couldn't get pass the cover of this supposedly helpful book. Unlike the "Physics for Dummies" or the "Biology for Dummies" books, J Wiley chose to use the picture of a Black kid to illustrate their chemistry text. There is an obvious biased message in that choice. I suggest you try another publisher if you need help in your chemistry class.
Very Helpful! Highly Recommended ! March 17, 2008 booklover71755 (California) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
As a High Schooler who is taking Honors Chemistry, I bought this book in case I needed help understanding its abstract ideas. And boy am I glad I did! I don't know how many times I have referred to this book when struggling with the material covered in class. With its simple English for "Dummies", this book is very well written and really helps me grasp the concepts of Chemistry. If you are taking this class in the future and a little apprehensive about how well you will do in the world of atoms, isotopes, the periodic table, and more, then do yourself a favor a BUY this book, you won't be sorry!
Great Chemistry Intro December 30, 2007 David Willetts (Perth, Western Australia) 2 out of 5 found this review helpful
An excellent introduction/refresher book. The only issue I had was the habitual America-centric writing I have to endure with most U.S books. When talking about pollution for example we only got figures for the United States as if no where else is relevant. These books are sold and read outside of the U.S.
