Educated at Washington and Lee University, as well as Cornell University, he held National Institutes of Health postdoctoral appointments at the University of Manchester Institute for Science and Technology in England and at Indiana University. Professor Kotz has co-authored three textbooks in several editions - INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, CHEMISTRY & CHEMICAL REACTIVITY, and THE CHEMICAL WORLD - along with the INTERACTIVE GENERAL CHEMISTRY CD-ROM. He also has published research on inorganic chemistry and electrochemistry. He was a Fulbright Lecturer and Research Scholar in Portugal in 1979 and a visiting professor there in 1992, as well as a visiting professor at the Institute for Chemical Education (University of Wisconsin, 1991-1992) and at Auckland University in New Zealand (1999).

He also was an invited speaker at a meeting of the South African Chemical Society and at the biennial conference for secondary school chemistry teachers in New Zealand. In addition, a recent tenure as a mentor of the U.S.

Chemistry Olympiad Team, Professor Kotz has received numerous honors, including a State University of New York Chancellor's Award (1979), a National Catalyst Award for Excellence in Teaching (1992), the Estee Lectureship in Chemical Education at the University of South Dakota (1998), the Visiting Scientist Award from the Western Connecticut Section of the American Chemical Society (1999), and the first annual Distinguished Education Award from the Binghamton (New York) Section of the American Chemical Society (2001).

Providing the most innovative homework, assessment, and study tools available for general chemistry, this thoroughly revised new edition of CHEMISTRY & CHEMICAL REACTIVITY, 8e, International Edition continues to offer the signature clear explanations, macro to micro orientation, enhanced problem-solving strategies, and superior art program that have made it a best-seller. The text emphasizes the visual nature of chemistry, illustrating the close interrelationship of the macroscopic, symbolic, and particulate levels of chemistry. The highly acclaimed art program illustrates each of these levels in engaging detailand is fully integrated with key media components. Now featuring more coverage of green/sustainable chemistry, the new edition provides students with even more problem-solving support through a revised format for worked problems, new problem strategy maps, new Review & Check problems, and more. OWL (Online Web Learning), a fully customizable homework and tutorial system (now featuring an interactive e-Book) maximizes student study timeand your options for assignments.
