Freeman: New York, 1996. ISBN 0 7167 3077 4. The second edition of the text The Elements of Physical Chemistry by Atkins is clearly written and should be readily understandable to undergraduates. In general, the presentation of topics is traditional, beginning with the behavior of gases, moving next to classical thermodynamics and related topics, and then covering quantum phenomena.

Aspects of most major topics generally presented in undergraduate physical chemistry courses are included in the text. The author purposely minimizes the use of mathematics, especially calculus. Such minimization of mathematics disallows many questions about physical chemistry from being adequately addressed, and students will be limited to using physical chemistry as a mere tool and likely will lack good understanding of the underlying principles. At the end of some sections that do not show the underlying mathematics, the author includes justification sections for the interested reader, in which more of the mathematics is presented. The text contains numerous worked examples that are solved by the use of a stated strategy which precedes the actual solution. Ample use is made of figures and illustrations, which for the most part are readily understandable, and symbols and abbreviations are uniform and standard. The figures are presented in shades of grey rather than in color, to keep low the purchase price of the text.The author states in the preface that 'I have had students of the life sciences particularly in mind while preparing this revision', and the level of difficulty is appropriate for such students with weak backgrounds in mathematics.
