an organic chemistry introduction through mechanisms

A very good aspect of this book is to present the basics of organic chemistry through mechanisms. It is much easier to memorize a reaction if you can explain it by a mechanism. If you read this book and beside work with the outstanding "Writing Reaction Mechanisms" by Miller et al. you are ready to start with more advanced concepts

Can't miss hit of the summer!!!

Solomons' Organic Chemistry is the "feel good," hit of the year. A must own for anyone who's anybody!! Scintillating portrayal of pi and sigma bonding orbitals. But of course, the functional groups take the cake...as always
