   Använd som kursbok i grundläggande organisk kemi.

   Boken är lätt att förstå och har bra exempel. Den är tydlig i sin form och har övningsuppgifter med lösningar/svar. Dock finns extraövningar utan lösningar och svar. För att erhålla lösningar till dessa krävs inköp av en separat bok i samma prisklass som själva boken...
