Not the best on audible

hard to listen to on audio due to all the links and equations. great concepts, just not good to listen to. i wish i bought the paper version

Disappointing, but with potential.

The narrator reads entire urls and tables (and he also often reads elements by their abbreviations instead of just saying their names), although he has a listenable voice and perfect delivery. Reading tables and urls fluffs the already-minimal content; beyond the fluff, there is probably only about 3 hours of content, which isn't enough to merit paying a credit. However, that content is incisive and helpful. The author has good insight, so I would love it if she updated and expanded this book and/or created more chemistry audiobooks (such as on biochemistry), and I would probably buy them.
