This accompaniment to Brown/Foote, Organic Chemistry, 2/e, teaches a skill essential to learning organic chemistry. By working through the program, students learn to push electrons to generate resonance structures and write organic mechanisms. Features: * The first chapter on Lewis Structures consolidates and improves the understanding of organic structure. * The workbook format requires active participation in learning. New to this edition: * A new chapter on solving mechanism problems (Chapter 4) was added in response to growing concern over students' problem-solving skills. * A new chapter on biochemistry (Chapter 5) was added to correspond with the structure of most organic chemistry courses.
Daniel Weeks is a native of New Jersey. He earned a B.S. in chemistry at Wesleyan College in West Virginia, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in organic chemistry at the University of Delaware. After a post-doctoral year at Brown University he began to learn his craft during a temporary appointment at Haverford College. He taught at Seton Hall University for about 20 years and finished his career with ten delightful years at Northwestern University. While he published research on the mechanisms of hydrolysis of organic compounds in aqueous solutions, mostly in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, his greatest satisfaction came from "seeing the light go on in his students' eyes." He has a reputation as an informative, entertaining and even funny lecturer. He is a self-confessed "ham" who always remembered that although what he taught was old stuff to him it was new to his students.
