"Chemistry in Context weaves chemistry into the web of life. Each chapter reflects a real and pressing societal issue such as global warming, acid rain, alternative fuels, nutrition, air quality, and genetic engineering. Underlying each issue is significant chemical content. By engaging students in this content and the issues to which it relates, Chemistry in Context prepares them to be well-informed citizens both today and in the years to come."
