5.0 out of 5 stars Good stuff, September 24, 2007
This review is from: The Organometallic Chemistry of the Transition Metals, 4th Edition (Hardcover)
I'm an organic chemistry graduate student with some inorganic background, but I know very little about organometallics. This book seems to be a very good introduction for someone like me. Well written, understandable, relevant.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for learning organometallic chemistry, November 26, 2009
By 
Jayson (Lincoln, NE) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Organometallic Chemistry of the Transition Metals, 4th Edition (Hardcover)
This book was recommended for an organometallic class I took in graduate school. I haven't seen many other organometallic textbooks but, in general, this is one of the best textbooks I've used for any class. The wording is easy to understand, and the author explains things in a way suitable for someone who has had no organometallic chemistry and little inorganic chemistry. At the same time it covers a very wide breath of organometallic chemistry.

It is a very useful book for any organometallic chemist and any organic chemist who deals with transition metal catalysis.

4.0 out of 5 stars Concise, readable, January 17, 2007
By 
Ben E (Knoxville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Organometallic Chemistry of the Transition Metals, 4th Edition (Hardcover)
Of the organometallic texts I've seen, this is my favorite. It provides a good introduction and eases the reader into heavier material. It's a great reference and a good starting point for learning the subject.
