Your home computer can help you get to grips with the fundamentals of
chemistry. General Chemistry: An Integrated Approach, by John Hill and Ralph
Petrucci, comes with an interactive CD-ROM that helps to bring the subject alive
and links to a companion website. However, like other American texts, it uses
units and symbols abandoned by the rest of the world. Published by Prentice
Hall, £24.95, ISBN 0139186735.
