Trade ReviewFrom the reviews of the fifth edition:
“Carey and Sundberg had written the most detailed and briliant account in the subject of organic chemistry. … The book provides an abundance of reaction examples organized in schemes. It makes studying very effective and helpful. … Advanced undergraduates and graduate students will welcome this new edition and the depth of materials covered.” (Philosophy, Religion and Science Book Reviews, bookinspections.wordpress.com, May, 2014)
