This concise textbook meets several objectives. First, the topics included were selected in order to provide essential information in the major areas of inorganic chemistry (molecular structure, acid-base chemistry, coordination chemistry, ligand field theory, solid state chemistry, etc.). These topics form the basis for competency in inorganic chemistry at a level commensurate with the one semester course taught at most colleges and universities.
这本简明的教科书满足了几个目标。首先，所包含的主题是为了提供无机化学主要领域（分子结构、酸碱化学、配位化学、配体场理论、固态化学等）的基本信息。这些主题构成了无机化学能力的基础，其水平相当于大多数学院和大学教授的一学期课程。

The second objective has been to stress fundamental principles in the discussion of several topics. For example, the hard-soft interaction principle is employed in discussion of acid-base chemistry, stability of complexes, solubility, and predicting reaction products.
第二个目标是在讨论几个专题时强调基本原则。例如，在酸碱化学、络合物的稳定性、溶解度和反应产物的预测等方面都采用了软硬相互作用原理。

Third, the presentation of topics is made with an effort to be clear and concise so that the book is portable and user friendly. This book presents in convenient form a readable account of the essentials of inorganic chemistry that can serve as both as a textbook for a one semester course upper level course and as a guide for self study.
第三，主题的呈现力求简洁明了，便于携带和使用。这本书以方便的形式呈现了一个可读的无机化学的基本内容，既可以作为一个学期课程的教科书，也可以作为自学的指南。

Figures, tables, and end-of-chapter problems round out this pedagogically rich, thematically balanced text for advanced undergraduate and graduate level students.
图表、表格和章末问题使这篇教学内容丰富、主题均衡的课文更适合高年级本科生和研究生。

Concise coverage maximizes student understanding and minimizes the inclusion of details students are unlikely to use.
简洁的报道最大限度地提高了学生的理解力，并尽量减少了学生不太可能使用的细节。

Discussion of elements begins with survey chapters focused on the main groups, while later chapters cover the elements in greater detail.
要素的讨论从调查章节开始，重点放在主要群体上，而后面的章节则更详细地讨论这些要素。

Each chapter opens with narrative introductions and includes figures, tables, and end-of-chapter problem sets.
每一章以叙述性的介绍开头，包括图表、表格和章末习题集。
