    SMARTWORK IS INCLUDED!!
  

*by C***D on Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2015*

I received my book in the mail very quickly! It is brand new as advertised. AND it comes with SmartWork access and the eBook. That was the most important part of my purchase. some people will still sell their books with a used access code. That is why YOU NEED TO PURCHASE THE BOOK NEW. I was a little worried I would make the purchase and SmartWork would not be included, but it is found inside the first few pages. My university bookstore is selling the book for twice the amount on here. If you are trying to save your money this would be a great purchase to make! A periodic table is also located inside the book. I glanced at the first chapter to see how understandable the book would be, and it seems like a pretty reasonable read. The only thing abut the book itself that worries me is that all of the solutions to the practice questions are not in the back of the book. Only some of them. So! I am considering purchasing the solutions manual. I am not sure if I will or not yet. The only thing I did not like about my purchase was when I opened the package, on the plastic covering, there was a sticker saying NOT RETURANABLE IF PLASTIC IS BROKEN, and my books covering was broken before I even opened the box. So...if your book has an issue I'm assuming you wouldn't be able to return it?? My book was fine so no returns necessary! I did take pictures of the covering before I touched the book just in case there were any issues. Other than that, this is a wonderful purchase for any college student trying to save money!!!!!!!

    CHEM 105 - General College Chemistry
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2015*

Got this for a college class. It's a pretty textbook... textbook. Not really any surprises here- it's a book about chemistry, full of chemistry-related concepts and definitions with practice exercises to apply what you read in every chapter. Also included is access to an interactive eBook as well as registration for online tutorials and homework, something more and more textbooks seem to be doing lately. I highly recommend fully utilizing the online/digital supplements with this book, they are awesome at helping you work through things.
