The 191 problems in this book cover most of the area of stereochemistry, including nomenclature, stereogenic elements (centers, axes, planes) and their descriptors, symmetry, inorganic stereochemistry, determination of enantiomer excess, conformation of acyclic and cyclic compounds, and more. The answers, in addition to providing solutions to the problems, frequently include additional explanations of the underlying principles. The problems are ordered more or less in order of increasing difficulty. (I had a hard time with some of the problems toward the end myself )... 

The subject of inorganic stereochemistry is mainly concerned with coordination compounds of metal ions, often called simply metal complexes. Throughout this text, it has been assumed that the reader, from his previous study of general and analytical chemistry, has become acquainted with the more elementary concepts concerning complexes. The naming of such complexes was described in Chapter 18.
