  - The great book for undergraduate studentI had met this book on my undergraduate studies, it was the most interesting and exciting one(compare to other organic chemistry books) I had read on organic chemistry. It is even possible to learn the organic chemistry completely alone without visiting any lectures. Still as graduate student me and other chemistry students in the university prefer this book in case you need to refresh the basis knowledge in organic chemistry. Rating: - Really great Ochem bookReally really loved this book. One of the best written college textbooks i have read in a long time 1). GOOD examples 2). REALLY thorough. It will cover nearly every topic in the entire ochem spectrum. When i was studying for the MCAT and couldnt find the answer to something all i had to do was pop open this book and find out about wolf-kirschner reductionr etc etc. 3). well written 4). easy to understand Cons 1). really expensive, the solutions manual is really expensive too. Also the modeling kit is really expensive lol. LOTS OF DOUGH, but if you can afford it its really a great book. Rating:  - Very strange way of teaching organic chemistryI just finished this class last semester. I found this book easy to follow, but I think it could have been arranged better. For instance, I would've started with SN 1/E 1 and SN 2/E 2 reactions first instead of jumping straight into the reactions of alkenes. I would've also appreciated if all of the nomenclature was in one concise chapter. I do appreciate the reaction summaries at the end of every chapter. That was quite useful. I really did not like the chapter on Mass spec, I felt it was lacking. The book also had some errors when it came to the practice problems and the answers in the back of the book. The chapter on stereochemistry was a headache. Do yourself a favor and attend the lecture and skip the chapter. Rating: - Great conditionThe book arrived faster than the quoted time, and was in great condition. The inside had no markings and the cover was not damaged in any way. Would buy from this seller again. Rating: - 2 day serviceReceived book in 3 days but paid for 2 day service. However, item was exactly what was stated. The one day did not make that big a difference but was a little irritating. Book was great. |
