Written by Janice Gorzynski Smith and Erin Smith Berk, the Student Study Guide/Solutions Manual provides step-by-step solutions to all in-chapter and end-of-chapter problems. Each chapter begins with an overview of key concepts and includes a short-answer practice test on the fundamental principles and new reactions.

In Organic Chemistry, 3rd Edition, Dr. David Klein builds on the phenomenal success of the first two editions, which presented his unique skills-based approach to learning organic chemistry. Dr. Klein’s skills-based approach includes all of the concepts typically covered in an organic chemistry textbook, and places special emphasis on skills development to support these concepts. This emphasis on skills development in unique SkillBuilder examples provides extensive opportunities for two-semester Organic Chemistry students to develop proficiency in the key skills necessary to succeed in organic chemistry.

"The Seventh Edition has been written with students like you in mind who are encountering organic chemistry for the first time. When learning and studying organic chemistry, you first must master fundamental principles of structure and reactivity that will then serve as the foundation on which to lay subsequent information. When we put a puzzle together, as depicted in the cover image of this book, we must work piece by piece until the larger picture comes into view. Similarly, the individual steps to learning organic chemistry are quite simple; each by itself is relatively easy to master. But there are many pieces involved in learning organic chemistry -- far too many to memorize. One would never try to memorize the position of each piece within a 500 piece puzzle! Mastering organic chemistry requires an understanding of fundamental principles and the ability to use those principles to reason, analyze, classify, and predict."--
This is the Student Study Guide and Solutions Manual to accompany Organic Chemistry, 2e. Organic Chemistry, 2nd Edition is not merely a compilation of principles, but rather, it is a disciplined method of thought and analysis. Success in organic chemistry requires mastery in two core aspects: fundamental concepts and the skills needed to apply those concepts and solve problems. Readers must learn to become proficient at approaching new situations methodically, based on a repertoire of skills. These skills are vital for successful problem solving in organic chemistry. Existing textbooks provide extensive coverage of, the principles, but there is far less emphasis on the skills needed to actually solve problems.
