Great textbook. Everything is extremely detailed, but not to the point where there's useless information. The problems throughout the chapters have answers in the back, and the end-of-chapter problems have answers in the solutions manual (which, by the way, is also excellent). There are also lots of examples provided, which are very helpful for those who are visual learners.
This is a very good textbook and I would recommend it to anyone who is learning organic chemistry. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-11-02 01:28:33 EST)

This book is simple to understand even amidst all the details it provides. The explanations are clear and concise while explaining all the jargon and convention. The Vollhardt text also gives a really good background to why reactions occur rather than plopping reactions on the page.

My class lecture was great! So I didn't really use the book as much. If anything, I used it for the questions after each chapter and reviewed it on the study guide which I purchased separately. Can't say too much, but it definitely came free shipping, fast shipping, and was priced below what the school was offering.

Perfect condition, exactly what I was looking for, and much cheaper than buying it from my bookstore!

Even if you do not attend any O. Chem class, you can study this book and learn a lot. I took Organic Chemistry at University last year and we used a different book for that class. O. Chem by Vollhardt provides some more materials than needed for the first and second year of O. Chem class, but it helps you to have a better understanding about the subject.
