Organic Chemistry, 2/e (Paperback)

Inspiring and motivating students from the moment it published, Organic Chemistry has established itself in just one edition as the student's choice of an organic chemistry text.

The second edition refines and refocuses Organic Chemistry to produce a text that is even more student-friendly, coherent, and logical in its presentation than before.

Like the first, the second edition is built on three principles:

An explanatory approach, through which the reader is motivated to understand the subject and not just learn the facts;

A mechanistic approach, giving the reader the power to understand compounds and reactions never previously encountered;

An evidence-based approach, setting out clearly how and why reactions happen as they do, giving extra depth to the reader's understanding.

The authors write clearly and directly, sharing with the reader their own fascination with the subject, and leading them carefully from topic to topic. Their honest and open narrative flags pitfalls and misconceptions, guiding the reader towards a complete picture of organic chemistry and its universal themes and principles.

《有機化學》自出版以來，就以啟發和激勵學生的方式而聞名，成為學生選擇有機化學教材的首選。第二版對《有機化學》進行了改進和重新聚焦，使其在呈現方式上比以前更加學生友好、連貫和邏輯。

與第一版一樣，第二版建立在三個原則上：
- 解釋性方法，激勵讀者理解主題，而不僅僅是學習事實；
- 機械性方法，使讀者能夠理解以前從未遇到的化合物和反應；
- 以證據為基礎的方法，清楚地說明反應發生的原因和方式，加深讀者對有機化學的理解。

作者以清晰直接的方式撰寫，與讀者分享他們對這個主題的迷戀，並仔細引導他們從一個主題到另一個主題。他們坦率和開放的敘述指出了可能遇到的困境和誤解，引導讀者對有機化學及其普遍主題和原則有一個完整的理解。
