Reviews
I liked the slightly informal tone of writing, almost as if I was being taught one-to-one by the author. It felt personal and honest, as if the author wrote the book to help me personally. * Stephen Robertson, student, University of York *
This book would be a chemistry student's friend. It is different to any I have read before. There is a comforting level of informality, where you felt like your friend was going through and explaining things to you. * Yasmine Biddick, student, University of Birmingham *
This text represents a new way to teach organic chemistry and produce independent, critically thinking chemists; it acknowledges the connected world in which students live and utilises that to avoid the traditional endless lists of reactions for rote learning. Instead, this text focuses on the discipline and practice required by the novice and gives them the tools to become an expert. * Dr Jennifer Slaughter, Department of Chemistry, University of Manchester *
This is a unique textbook that does something no other text does - it speaks the language of the modern student and is formatted with that in mind. * Professor Mark Bagley, Department of Chemistry, University of Sussex *
