Chemistry at Work. Brenda Shapiroo & Stan Shapiro. (1989). Copp Clark Pitman. ISBN<br />

0773047301<br />

Doesn't cover all the objectives in our Level III chemistry courses at a high enough<br />

level to be used as the main text, but has a great "h<strong>and</strong>s-on" approach with lots <strong>of</strong><br />

activities <strong>and</strong> creative or practical examples. A good teacher's resource, or good text<br />

for students taking chemistry for general interest.<br />

Chemistry Today 1. R.L. Whitman, E.E. Zinck, R.A. Nalepa. (1988). Prentice Hall.<br />

Can be used for all Level III chemistry courses. Lab manual available.<br />

Conceptual Physics. Paul G. Hewitt. (1992). Addison-Wesley. ISBN 0-201-28651-3<br />

Covers physics conceptually rather than mathematically, with equations <strong>of</strong>ten written<br />

in words as "guides to thinking" rather than "recipes for algebraic problem-solving".<br />

Does not quite cover all our objectives; however, it would be a good approach for<br />

someone who would like to do physics, but has trouble with math. Teacher's edition,<br />

teaching guide, tests, concept exercises, worksheets, lab manual, <strong>and</strong> video lessons<br />

are available.<br />

Earth Science (Canadian Edition). Samuel N. Namowitz <strong>and</strong> Nancy E. Spaulding. (1987).<br />

D.C. Heath <strong>and</strong> Company. ISBN: 0-669-95294-X<br />

Covers most <strong>of</strong> the objectives for S 3212 Earth Science, excluding the section on<br />

Newfoundl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> Labrador Geology. Also deals with many concepts found in the IS<br />

3211 Oceanography course.<br />

Electricity. Edward Fogden. Copp Clark Pitman. ISBN 07487-0208-3.<br />

Part <strong>of</strong> a series, Science Now!, <strong>of</strong> magazine-style books which incorporate recently<br />

(1981). CBS College Publishing, carried by Harcourt-Brace & Company (Holt, Rinehart, &<br />

Smaller text which does not cover our objectives as well as the recommended text <strong>and</strong><br />

doesn't go into as much detail.<br />

Energy. Edward Fogden. Copp Clark Pitman. ISBN 07487-0209-1.<br />

Part <strong>of</strong> a series, Science Now!, <strong>of</strong> magazine-style books which incorporate recentlypublished<br />

information on various science subjects at various ability levels.<br />

Energy. J.J. Wellington. (1992) Copp Clark Pitman. ISBN 0-748713441.<br />

Part <strong>of</strong> a series, Extending Science, which emphasizes the environmental <strong>and</strong> social<br />
