| Description | | - Admirably complements its popular and successful predecessor
- Broad international appeal for all students starting in chemistry and biochemistry
- Good A level text, consolidates and builds on the syllabus
- Can also be used as a stand-alone tutorial text
- Uses a wide variety of interesting and useful compounds to reinforce basic ideas

This book provides problems, with answers and tutorial guidance, on the organic chemistry encountered by students in their last year of A-level and at the beginning of undergraduate courses in Chemistry and Biochemistry. The layout of the book runs parallel with that of the successful Foundations of Organic Chemistry
by the same authors. The first three chapters cover basic physical organic
chemistry, setting the scene for the mechanistic organic chemistry covered later. The problems are accompanied by useful hints, and the answers with tutorial comments which reinforce the chemical principles involved.
