In the first part of the book, the introduction to inorganic chemistry and the structure of atoms and the birth of elements, which are the basics of inorganic chemistry, are covered, and the basic chemical bonds that form molecules are introduced. After that, the bonds and properties of inorganic compounds are explained based on molecular symmetry and group theory.
This book provides a good introduction to coordination chemistry, organometallic chemistry, main group element chemistry, and solid-state chemistry, which are the foundations of inorganic chemistry.


Additionally, the addition of problems using original literature and electronic materials through Web of Science and SciFinder Scholar, as well as practice problems using computer programs, on nanochemistry, which has recently been receiving attention, is believed to have heightened students' sense of the times in the IT and information age.
The translators believe that this book will be helpful to students who wish to study chemistry and inorganic chemistry in depth, as it is faithful to the principles, contains concise descriptions, easy-to-understand illustrations, examples, and basic and practice problems.
