For courses in hazardous materials.

A guide to hazardous materials, for both the chemistry novice and the emergency responder
Chemistry of Hazardous Materials covers principles of basic chemistry and the chemical properties that make materials hazardous. Assuming no prior knowledge of basic chemistry, the text is equally useful as a teaching tool for the non-science major and an on-the-job resource for the emergency responder. With a simplified, streamlined layout, the 7th Edition includes an introduction to the latest technologies, additional challenging exercises, and a discussion of current events to offer context for ways of interpreting, handling, and storing hazardous chemical substances.
