Chemistry in Context Description
Following in the tradition of the first six editions, the goal of this successful, issues-based textbook, Chemistry in Context, seventh edition, is to establish chemical principles on a need-to-know basis for non-science majors, enabling them to learn chemistry in the context of their own lives and significant issues facing science and the world. The non traditional approach of Chemistry in Context reflects today's technological issues and the chemistry principles imbedded within them. The seventh edition applies sustainability principles wherever possible. Global warming, alternate fuels, nutrition, and genetic engineering are examples of issues that are covered in Chemistry in Context.

I bought this text off of Amazon because it was 5 dollars cheaper than at the school store. Plus I could get it delivered for free instead of fighting the crowds to grab a book.
Anyway, what I did not know is that the book the school store sold came with the access code for Blackboard Connect (which is required for my class, it may not be for others). This book did not. The code costs about 30 dollars. So check with your professor before the class starts, and try to find an edition with the access code card instead of over-paying like me.
I do like the textbook though. Just heed my warning so you don't have to over-pay.
