| - 'Core Carbonyl Chemistry is recommendable particularly to first year degree students as the subject matter as presented is a microcosm of organic chemistry, describing reactions, their mechanisms and conditions and their synthetic relevance. Warmly recommended, especially as a supplement to a brief lecture course.' - Aslib Book Guide, vol. 63, no. 3, March 1998

| Description | | - · Covers topic central to study of organic chemistry
- · Useful to all chemistry undergraduates
| | This Primer deals, in a brisk manner within a modern mechanistic framework, with the chemistry of the carbonyl group as found in aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acid derivatives. This material is central to all foundation courses in organic chemistry and will be useful to all university students reading chemistry or biochemistry, especially in the first year. |
Readership: Main: First and second year chemistry undergraduate students. Other: Undergraduate biochemistry students.
