Just what the student was looking for. Zubrick certainly has quite an eye for humour. All areas of organic chemistry that you are likely to meet in the undergraduate laboratory have been addressed. Lots of valuble information that will make this book easily worth it's purchase if one reads it and re-reads it carefully. Book seems alot thinner than edition 3 but is probably alot neater.

Organic Chem Lab Survival Manual
|
|
An excellent book for anyone whos interested in organic chemistry, but doesn't know where to begin. Zubrick's "serious humor" gives the book an "interesting" tone... I'd recomend it to anyone, it's well worth the money!

I have had the opportunity to use this great manual for two semesters; it continues to be a permanent fixture to my hip. O. Chem can be and is for some a very difficult subject but Professor Zubrick has the rare talent of making the lab understandable and less of a fearful experience. Through his knowledgeable insight as well as his calm but "safety-first" attitude I have truly become an Organic Chemistry fan ("geek"). Thank you for all the laughs and wonderful guidance your manual has provided me throughout the two semesters. I recommend this manual to any O. Chem students, enthusiasts, as well as professors. Hope Professor Zubricks' next manual/book is as enjoyable to read...can't wait!
