Reviews

The authors have succeeded admirably in the updating of a classic in the pedagogy of organic chemistry. ( Journal of Medicinal Chemistry , August 2009) This book is suitable for advanced undergraduate students, researchers and professional chemists. Both the writing and the diagrams are simple and clear. ( Reviews, May 2009)
