## Description

Organic chemistry can be a challenging subject. Most students view organic chemistry as a subject requiring hours upon hours of memorization. Author David Klein's Second Language books prove this is not true―organic chemistry is one continuous story that actually makes sense if you pay attention. Offering a unique skill-building approach, these market-leading books teach students how to ask the right questions to solve problems, study more efficiently to avoid wasting time, and learn to speak the language of organic chemistry. Covering the initial half of the course, Organic Chemistry as a Second Language: First Semester Topics reviews critical principles and explains their relevance to the rest of the course. Each section provides hands-on exercises and step-by-step explanations to help students fully comprehend classroom lectures and textbook content. Now in its fifth edition, this valuable study resource covers the characteristics of molecules, the nature of atomic bonds, the relationships between different types of molecules, drawing and naming molecules, and essential molecular reactions.

Review: Buy this book if you're taking Ochem! - This book breaks problems down into really simple, easy-to-understand bits. Everything is explained! Plus there are lots of practice problems and solutions to help you learn and prepare yourself for exams. This book was recommended to me before I took Ochem, and I'm so glad I got it. I feel like I developed a solid understanding of the material, and I ended up with an A in the class. Just purchased the second volume without hesitation now that I'm taking the second semester.
Review: the best organic chemistry book on the market - First, there are 2 volumes of this book (that I know of). This is the first volume. I absolutely recommend this book for anyone in organic chemistry. This book teaches better than 85% of professors. I think this book covers functional groups and nomenclature plus a few other topics. The explanation is much more concise than a standard textbook but it's supplemented with problems that will help you grasp the meaning. Trust me. I am telling you to disregard negative reviews about this book. Some have purchased used books that have writing inside (that sucks). Some are saying positive reviews were coerced (that's a lie). Some probably really struggled to learn from this book (if that was you then STEM is NOT the way for you friend). If you want to learn organic chemistry and your professor meanders about life, or goes a mile a minute, or is fine and you just need some extra help... get this book

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ best book hands down
*by J***J on August 28, 2025*

Let me give David Klein a big fat juicy kiss, best book ever. Got an A+ in both Orgo 1 and 2 because of his two Organic Chemistry as a Second Language books. Words can't describe how much I love this man and his incredible way of teaching orgo.
