This book covers chemical kinetics from the working chemists' point of view. Competing books present a more theoretical presentation of kinetics. This book is a "how to" book for designing experiments, analyzing, and critiquing them. Chemical Kinetics and Reaction Mechanisms also prepares chemists to devise experiments to test different hypotheses. A diskette that helps students solve end-of-chapter problems is packaged with each text.

As a medicinal chemist and enzymologist I found this book to be not to my taste. Very little attention is devoted to Michaelis Mentin and the steady state approximation. Nor is very much attention paid to the organic chemistry of the rate laws of organic reactions. www.booko.org—freebook and password
But I suppose this is necessary. This is a general text on kinetics and in that regard it is a very good one. For starters it's small, making it easy to carry. This compactness of size leads to a corollary compactness in language. It's brevity makes difficult concepts a little easier to understand because they aren't smothered in endless confusing verbiage and examples.

With the knowledge comprised here you should be prepared to utilize kinetics in almost all circumstances. However, for specific functions, such as enzymology, a more specific book on the subject is recommended.

Summary: Good intro book

Espenson's book is ok. It's a little difficult to read at times, but covers the basics fairly well. More references would be useful. A good introductory book.

Summary: Generally a good book
Rating: 4
This book has a lot of basic stuff in it. It is rather easy to read and simplistic. It is a good introductory kinetics book, but copyright by www.booko.org
