Organic Chemistry
Description:... For courses in organic chemistry taken by science and pre-health majors. This innovative text from acclaimed educator Paula Bruice anticipates students challenges and appeals to their need to learn visually in this often-abstract subject. Emphasising that students should reason their way to solutions rather than memorise facts, Bruice encourages students to think about what they have learned previously and apply that knowledge in new settings. The text balances coverage of traditional topics with bioorganic chemistry, recognising the importance of bioorganic topics for todays students.
