Award-winning educator Peter Siska brings years of research and teaching experience to University Chemistry , a new, distinctive honors general chemistry textbook that offers a logical framework of core ideas to give students a solid understanding of chemistry. The book is built on the premise that mastery of a few central ideas will enable students to comprehend and appreciate complex chemical processes.
Modern topics, such as the spectroscopic applications of quantum chemistry, are woven into the text to ignite students' imaginations and give them an appreciation for the experimental nature of the science. Rigorous in its quantitative coverage, University Chemistry helps students think through chemical problems, integrate ideas, and approach chemistry conceptually as well as mathematically.
The book's superior media program draws on the most state-of-the-art animations, simulations, and interactive chemical equations to help students visualize complex chemical processes and master problem-solving techniques.
Peter Siska is a professor of chemistry at the University of Pittsburgh, one of the top chemistry departments in the country. Peter is a physical chemist, trained at Harvard, who works on the chemistry of electronically excited molecules. He has published numerous papers in the best journals. In addition to his research, Peter is also well known for his teaching and has been recognized for his contributions in the classroom. This year he was awarded the Bellet Arts and Sciences Excellence in Teaching, and in 1987, he received the Chancellor's Distinguished Teaching Award.
