chemistry with the publication of The Chemistry Student’s Companion in conjunction with Lulu (www.lulu.com), the world’s fastest-growing provider of print-on-demand books.
“ My students and I got tired of textbooks that were pretty to look at, but had no real substance ”
The Chemistry Student’s Companion is a designed as a supplement to the traditional textbooks used in Honors Chemistry classes. It focuses on a conceptual understanding of how chemistry works, rather than on memorizing rules and facts that have little bearing on the physical reality of the universe around us.
Schaffter came to Lulu because he wanted to be in control of the publishing process and found Lulu’s print-on-demand tools to be fast, easy and, most importantly, free. He involved his students in the entire process, so that they would also be able to create and distribute materials in an affordable and efficient manner. The Chemistry Student’s Companion is available for purchase at www.lulu.com, in a marketplace filled with other unique and wonderful surprises.
“My students and I got tired of textbooks that were pretty to look at, but had no real substance” said Schaffter. “I decided to write a book of my own and have my students edit it. That way, I was certain that the final product would be something they could understand and use.
“Using Lulu, I am able to make revisions as needed. Since the books are printed on demand, users are always able to get the latest version of the work, and at a very reasonable price.
“It is my vision that in the future, all textbooks will be done this way, so that students will be given their texts, rather than have them turn them in at the end of the year. My book is much like Lulu itself—it puts control of your destiny in your own hands.”
