Customer Reviews:
wonderful introduction to organic chemistry December 27, 2006 This book is a wonderful guide and has phenomenal explanatory power. I was grade eight when I first picked up this book and I am pretty confident that I understood every topic presented therein. The authors are very meticulous about dividing a big topic into several smaller ones for readers' ease of comprehension. Not only is this a good guide for one who has no basics in organic chemistry, it is also probably a good reference on the bookshelves of practicing organic chemists or curious people. All this praise, however, hinges on one caveat, that the reader has (very) basic grasp of general chemical knowledge.
