A graet organic chemistry book October 4, 2009

This book is written in a very rational and logical way. Any student who wants to become a scientist should study science as a scientist. For such a student, this organic chemistry book is a great tool and resource, because it provides chemical information, encouraging the student to ask questions like what, why and how during the learning process. It smoothly creates connections between new information and the knowledge that the student already possesses. So it is not so hard to read through the book even though organic chemistry is comparatively a hard subject.

It came quickly and it was exactly what I ordered with no markings or bendings in the book. Same information as the book that could be bought in the book store.

Definitely buy this through Amazon... SUBSTANTIALLY cheaper than any book store.
There isn't much to say about the quality of the book. It's a textbook. Anyone who loves organic chemistry probably loves the book. Anyone who would rather gnaw through their own arm than study organic chemistry is probably not thrilled they have to take the class or that the book is so expensive.
