Designed to provide a thorough grounding in fundamental chemical principles, the book focuses on key elements of organic chemistry and carefully chosen material is illustrated with the extensive use of pharmaceutical and biochemical examples.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In order to establish links and similarities the book places prominence on principles and deductive reasoning with cross-referencing. This informal text also places the main emphasis on understanding and predicting reactivity rather than synthetic methodology as well as utilising a mechanism based layout and featuring annotated schemes to reduce the need for textual explanations.\u003cbr\u003e * tailored specifically to the needs of students of Pharmacy Medical Chemistry and Biological Chemistry\u003cbr\u003e * numerous pharmaceutical and biochemical examples\u003cbr\u003e * mechanism based layout\u003cbr\u003e * focus \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The ease with which the author conveys predictability in fundamental chemical reaction pathways distinguishes this book.\" (\u003ci\u003eJournal of Medicinal Chemistry\u003c\/i\u003e, 2007)  \u003cp\u003e\"...the textbook accomplishes its distinctive purpose with clear writing and appropriately selected content\" (\u003ci\u003eJournal of Natural Products\u003c\/i\u003e, 2007)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Do you want to add life to your organic chemistry course?
