The Chemical Storylines book is the backbone of the entire course! It is arranged in 'storyline' chapters, and we work through each chapter in turn. The text is designed to make chemistry interesting and relevant and to place the chemical theory into context. The Storylines book directs all of your learning, pointing you to the Chemical Ideas book when you need to study the relevant theory, and directing you to appropriate experimental work.

The book also contains assignments within the body of the text, aimed at supporting your understanding as you go along.
