Why? In John McMurry's words: "I have been asked hundreds of times over the past ten years why I wrote this book. 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. I write to explain chemistry to students the way I wish it had been explained to me years ago." Through his lucid writing and ability to show the beauty and logic of organic chemistry, McMurry makes learning enjoyable for students. The highest compliment that can be given to a chemistry book applies to McMurry: It works! Mainstream in level, McMurry's coverage is concise yet doesn't omit any key topics. McMurry blends the traditional functional-group approach with a mechanistic approach. The primary approach, by functional group, begins with the simple and progresses to the more complex so that readers who are not yet versed in the subtleties of mechanisms are first exposed to the "what" of chemistry before beginning to grapple with the "why." Within this primary organization, the author places a heavy emphasis on explaining the fundamental mechanistic similarities. In this edition, McMurry retains his standard-setting features (including his innovative vertical format for explaining reaction mechanisms) while revising his text line-by-line to include hundreds of small but important improvements. For example, the Sixth Edition includes new examples, additional steps in existing examples, new problems, new phrases to clarify the exposition, and a vibrant new art program. In addition, new icons in the text lead students to a variety of new online resources. McMurry's text is in use at hundreds of colleges and universities around the world, from North America, to the United Kingdom and the Pacific Rim. 2039542 21 3 2003 Organic Chemistry (with Printed Access Card InfoTrac ) total:27|5:4|4:8|3:8|2:4|1:3| 27 87 41 11 4 0 false false Sat Sep 05 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 18:34:31 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 18:41:22 -0700 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Wed Aug 13 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Jan 11 00:21:03 -0800 2008 Sat Aug 16 17:59:17 -0700 2008 more...]]> 0 0 false false Wed Feb 04 18:56:39 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 04 18:59:55 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Fri Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 10 17:51:14 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 21 14:42:48 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Apr 03 14:31:34 -0700 2008 Thu Apr 03 14:33:14 -0700 2008 Professors should be required to write a book before they teach. there will always be too much information to learn, and not enough time for the professor to teach it to you.
