Let this guide help you visualize chemistry! Filled with colorful infographics, this book makes it easy to see how chemistry breaks down, and when you can see it, you’re much more likely to understand and remember. Complex topics become approachable and enjoyable! The introduction section features a “Timeline of Discovery” showing how the field of chemistry has developed over time. Then, 14 chapters cover the fundamental principles of chemistry, beginning with the atom and building from there. I especially liked the chapter on the periodic table explaining its structure and purpose. The last chapter on electrochemistry is fascinating! Each chapter ends with a double-page spread that summarizes what was learned with an illustrated “Recap.” Any difficult terms are defined in the colorful glossary at the back of the book. 191 pgs., pb.
