Paperback + ALEKS 360, McGraw
Janice Smith's Organic Chemistry shows students thebeauty and logic of organic chemistry by providing them atext that makes organic chemistry interesting, relevant, andaccessible to all students without sacrificing the rigorneeded to be successful in future courses. This textcontinues the successful student-oriented approach anduses less prose and more diagrams and bulleted summariesfor today’s students, who rely more heavily on visual imageryto learn than ever before. Each topic is broken down intosmall chunks of information that are more manageable andeasily learned.
