Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"Eminently appropriate for our students. The organization of this text is not matched by any other that I have seen. . . . Only Fessenden proceeds logically from sigma-bond chemistry to non-polar pi-bond chemistry to aromatic pi-bond chemistry and then to polar pe-bond chemistry. This organization is the result of an insight few, if any, authors have had."

2.0 out of 5 stars
I have the old addition and its no improvement,
By A Customer
This review is from: Organic Chemistry (Non-InfoTrac Version) (Hardcover)
I have had this text for an intro to organic class this last semester, and using the old version for the class was easy since it hasnt changed in the new revsion. I hate to say it but it is well written except for the structure of the molecules since they are all in letter format, why couldnt they revise the new edition with line angle drawings the ink cost is the same.... it makes it that much harder to read with the current typewriter style samples

Great treatment of a difficult topic!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Organic Chemistry (Hardcover)
This is a fine text. The authors have broken down a rather difficult subject into easily digestable units, which helped my understanding of the whole. You should also use the companion CD. This is a great tool for visualizing the 3-D structure of complex molecules. I bought this book and have refered to it many times. Do yourself a favor and buy this great text!!!

The most helpful I ever used,
By saintshadow@juno.com (Malden, MA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Organic Chemistry (Hardcover)
I think if you're chemistry major while you're taking organic chemistry, you should buy this text, because it helps you steps by steps. Of course, whoever disagrees my opinion, I've no control to know which organic text(s) is the best.
