Joel Karty helps students succeed in organic chemistry, and our adopters overwhelmingly agree that his mechanistically organized approach works. The Third Edition includes a new video series that models the critical thinking skills that students need to master. Redesigned, two-column Solved Problems then coach students in applying those critical thinking skills to solving chemical equations, which helps them avoid overreliance on memorization. Interactive features in the book and Smartwork consistently give students opportunities to practice what they've learned.
