Moore is something approaching a Holy Cannon of Physical Chemistry. This is a text that should be on the reference bookshelf of every chemist. Moore boils everything in Chemistry worth knowing down to its essentials and then builds it up gracefully and flawlessly. Once you have an operational grasp of the required background material and want to learn about how things really work, you'll fall in love with this book.
