化学：物质及其变化研究 （第4版）

　　The student-friendly style of the book makes the content accessible without sacrificing either breadth or depth of coverage. The text's informal writing style， emphasis on problem solving， and state-of-the-art media package make this book an ideal fit at schools with large class sizes and a wide range of student abilities and backgrounds. The authors' goal was to create a complete package （text + media + supplements） which would challenge the better-prepared students and provide support to the lesser prepared students， giving ALL students a chance to succeed. 4e welcomes a new co-author Fred Senese， Frostburg State University， the creator of the award-winning General Chemistry Online and Ask Antoine （the most hit general chem web resource in the world with over 15 million hits/year）. In addition to creating the new Brady/Senese website， he has also worked with Jim Brady to do significant revisions in the text.

　　Written by Jim Brady， an author well known for his ability to communicate chemistry， and Fred Senese， the architect of the most visited general chemistry website.
