Book Overview
Introduction to Organic Chemistry, 5th Edition provides an introduction to organic chemistry for students who require the fundamentals of organic chemistry as a requirement for their major. It is most suited for a one semester organic chemistry course. In an attempt to highlight the relevance of the material to students, the authors place a strong emphasis on showing the interrelationship between organic chemistry and other areas of science, particularly the biological and health sciences. The text illustrates the use of organic chemistry as a tool in these sciences; it also stresses the organic compounds, both natural and synthetic, that surround us in everyday life: in pharmaceuticals, plastics, fibers, agrochemicals, surface coatings, toiletry preparations and cosmetics, food additives, adhesives, and elastomers.

exactly as it said
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
I needed an Organic Chemistry book used because I didn't want to spend 200$ in the bookstore and this one for only 30$ caught my eye. It said there was a mild coffee stain along the bottom and some wear around the edges. The book arrived with exactly that condition and I am pleased that the seller was honest and there were no troubles whatsoever.
A valuable and well-written tool
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This text is a valuable and well-written tool for any person that may have little familiarity with organic chemistry but is interested in learning. Text is accompanied by diagrams and pictures that provide visual aid to help in understanding. Throughout the chapters, sample questions are included along with descriptive answers that help understand the solution's process. Each chapter has questions pertaining to the material covered that are objective as well as questions that may be meaningful in a real-life context. Solutions to problems only exist in the text for odd-numbered questions. Even-numbered questions will require the solution manual.

There are a lots pictures in the book, and explain theories very well. However, solutions for problems are not in this book, have to buy seperately.
