Chemistry: The Molecular Nature of Matter and Change with Advanced Topics 8th edition, authored by Martin Silberberg and Patricia Amateis has earned its place as a classic in the general chemistry market. The 8th edition has been revised to further optimize the textbook. The authors used data from numerous responses to questions in LearnSmart, a learning system that evaluates student understanding of course content. The data highlighted the learning objectives that proved to be difficult for students, which prompted revisions to the text, along with additional learning resources such as videos and slideshows. The etextbook offers illustrations ranging from macroscopic to microscopic molecular, exercised worked out in every chapter, and a wide variety of engaging application problems across many subjects such as engineering, materials, medicine, and environmental studies. The text and applications have been made more concise, the artwork was improved, and the design was simplified to be more open and modern. A newer edition is also available.

About The Author
Martin Silberberg
Dr. Martin S. Silberberg received his B.S. in chemistry from the City University of New York in 1966 and his Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Oklahoma, in 1971. Dr. Martin then accepted a research position at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, where he studied the chemical nature of neurotransmission and Parkinson's disease. In 1977, he joined the faculty of Simon's Rock College of Bard (Massachusetts), a liberal arts college known for its excellence in teaching small classes of highly motivated college students. As Head of the Natural Sciences Major and Director of Premedical Studies, Martin taught courses in organic chemistry, biochemistry, general chemistry, and nonmajors chemistry. The close student contact afforded him insights into how college students learn chemistry, where they have difficulties, and what strategies can help them succeed. In 1983, Dr. Martin Silberberg decided to apply these insights in a broader context and established a textbook writing and editing company. Before writing his own book, he worked on biochemistry, chemistry, and physics texts for several major college publishers. He resides with his wife and child in Massachusetts. For relaxation, Martin sings, cooks, and walks in the woods.
Patricia Amateis
Dr. Patricia Amateis got her B.S. in Chemistry from Concord University in West Virginia and a Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from Virginia Tech. Pat has been on the faculty of the Chemistry Department at Virginia Tech for over 26 years, teaching Analytical Chemistry and General Chemistry. For the past 14 years, Professor Amateis has served as Director of General Chemistry, responsible for the oversight of both the lecture and lab portions of the large General Chemistry program.
Patricia has taught thousands of college students during her career and has been awarded the Alumni Teaching Award, the University Sporn Award for Introductory Teaching, and the William E. Wine Award for a history of university teaching excellence.
