Good Deal

It was a great brand new book and the shipping time was quick.Organic Chemistry: Structure and Reactivity

Great for reference and review

I own several organic chemistry books: Organic Chemistry By Solomons and Fryle, this book (an older edition), Schaum's Organic chemistry, and Organic Chemistry as a second language. I think that this book lacks in the substitution and elimination reaction chapters. My teacher explained that wonderfully and if you get a good book that explains that well such as organic chemistry as a second language or have a good teacher then Ege's book will make more sense in the syntheses chapter. This book does a great job explaining mechanisms and expects you to know how to write them out unlike Solomons and Fryle who care more about products than how you got them. The summaries and concepts maps are great. The other problem I found with this book is that some of the problems are very advanced (as in graduate level) and she expects you to know things that are not covered in the book until later such as the names of certain organic molecules which are pertinent in solving the problem. This author does a great job explaining isomers, quantum mechanics, and includes topics from every branch of organic chemistry. The author explains thoroughly there is a lot to learn from each chapter but you will be well prepared for later classes.

I like this author better than others

This author seems to put complex concepts in terms you can easily understand. I am currently studying out of the McMurry organic chemistry book and find it much more vague.

Two thumbs up!

Dr. Ege taught me organic chemistry when I took organic chemistry in my undergraduate. She is one of not many chemists I have seen thus far that can present her expertise in such a friendly and simple manner. I used her text as a textbook for class and this book gave me valuable knowledge of Chemistry. This new edition has been recently updated and Dr. Ege still maintains her unique talent in making difficult subject easy. For those who are afraid of taking this burdensome class. Try reading this text and do the problem sets given at the end of each chapter. I am sure that you will love organic chemistry like thousands of Dr. Ege's students. This book is well organized, clear, comprehensive and ideal for future reference. It may seem too expensive, but you pay a little more for a much better one...

In-depth and detailed

Excellent organic chemistry textbook. Many mechanisms and coherent explanations of reactions. Problems throughout the book require a very thorough understanding of the material. Study guide very detailed and helpful.
