Organic Chemistry Hardcover – 5 November 2010

4.5 out of 5 stars 191 ratings
Edition: 8th

Master organic chemistry with the help of this proven best-seller! John McMurry's ORGANIC CHEMISTRY is consistently praised as the most clearly written book available for the course. In John McMurry's words: 'I wrote this book because I love writing. I get great pleasure and satisfaction from taking a complicated subject, turning it around until I see it clearly from a new angle, and then explaining it in simple words.' Through his lucid writing and ability to show the beauty and logic of organic chemistry, McMurry makes learning enjoyable. The highest compliment that can be given to a chemistry book applies to McMurry: It works!

    Very well written textbook for the class. My professor is a bit hard to understand and pay attention to so I read the book constantly to know what will be discussed and what is being talked about in class. Read the section I was supposed to for my midterm and I feel I did great just from the knowledge the book gives. It can be a bit simple though on some concepts that would probably need more clarification.

    As far as an Organic Chemistry textbook can go, it is proving to be pretty useful. It is clear and makes sense. It came in good condition without any writing inside the textbook. I bought in order to use for a Organic Chemistry 2 class in the summer, so far it's serving it's purpose!
