Customer Reviews

The book arrived with strong Smoke smell

The book arrived with strong smoke smell which I cannot get rid of. It's so strong that I couldn't read it without feeling sick...

Great condition and fast shipping

The book was brand new just like its description. Arrived earlier than expected time, and I'm very pleased with my purchase

best textbook

this book is recomanded for any people who are interested in organic chemistry. it is so easy to read and understand

I Love Vollhardt

After perusing several other texts at different colleges, I have come to the conclusion that the Vollhardt book is indeed a well done text. Although more examples would have been nice, I feel that the reactions are done in a straightforward manner and the Chemical Highlights provided are fantastically interesting. The Viagra synthesis presented was very helpful in discussing yields of pharmaceutical drugs. Overall, I'd give this book a B+/A-

A very ilustrative, explanatory book

If you want a book to start learning university Organic Chemistry...this is the one. The text is well writen, very clear and is always acompanied with ilustrations wich use color to enhance your understanding. These factors make it a easy-to-grasp book (but still concise) that doesn't demand any high level chemistry. It covers some necessary bonding concepts, nomenclature, reaction mechanisms and examples of organic chemistry applications. It was very helpful for me...and I still refer to it for the concepts of reaction mechanisms and structures in organic chemistry issues.

Very good book for .chemistry sudent

befor i bought the book me & my friend check alot of books and we think this book is one of the best book today on the market the book show u and explain u how reaction are going in color (very nice and use full ) in the last of each section u have a summery reaction list and the exrcise are very good like in the test & this book come with very nice prog that exercise u and show u 3d reaction like sn1,sn2,e1,e2 benzen reaction and more any way don't hate organic chemistry soooooo much :-) bye bye ,and good luck on your's exam y.m bar-ilan university
