ReviewsHornback's mechanistic organization is only different from our current approach in that we cover the functional groups as the major topic of most chapters. But our underlying approach is basically mechanistic. Therefore using Hornback would not present any significant challenges., Hornbacks mechanistic organization is only different from our current approach in that we cover the functional groups as the major topic of most chapters.

Therefore using Hornback would not present any significant challenges., Hornback’s mechanistic organization is only different from our current approach in that we cover the functional groups as the major topic of most chapters. But our underlying approach is basically mechanistic. Therefore using Hornback would not present any significant challenges., The end-of-chapter problems as well as the problems within the chapters are excellent. Many questions work students through the necessary fundamentals. Only thereafter are more sophisticated problems introduced., I share the author's view that the mechanistic approach is really the only good way to teach the material. I also support the author's focus on major mechanistic classes, while not covering less important classes of reactions., I share the authors view that the mechanistic approach is really the only good way to teach the material.

I also support the author’s focus on major mechanistic classes, while not covering less important classes of reactions., Hornback will serve the average students well and also be an excellent foundation for further exploration by more advanced students. Overall the writing style is concise and focused, helping the students stay focused on the most important concepts of the chapter with out becoming lost in details and distractions.

Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Second Edition - the first mechanistic-oriented book written at a level that organic chemistry students will understand! Specifically, the focus on mechanisms is a unifying theme, rather then just an organizing principle. Organizationally mainstream, it is unique in bringing in mechanisms as a unifying principle, and reactions are organized by mechanism type not by functional groups. And now, text/media integration has never been so seamless with the introduction of Organic ChemistryNow for ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Second Edition., ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Second Edition - the first mechanistic-oriented book written at a level that organic chemistry students will understand Specifically, the focus on mechanisms is a unifying theme, rather then just an organizing principle.
