This primer concisely lays down the basic concepts required for a thorough understanding of organic chemistry, including those physical ones. Each concept is explained clearly and carefully with analogies and examples where necessary. There is a particular emphasis on identifying the common mechanistic themes between reactions, rather than the chemical differences between homologus series, as found in standard texts. I would recommend this book to interested A-level (pre-university) and university students, especially those having difficulty in appreciating that organic chemistry is more than a wide array of unconnected reactions.
