Illustrated Glossary of Organic Chemistry

Dr. Hardinger also wrote his own text books. He’d charge $35ish for them through the university publisher instead of making us buy much more expensive professionally published text books. I personally thought they were well written and his problem sets and worked explanations were clear and concise. All in all a great professor.

For example: rather than trying to force people to memorize solvent-reaction combinations, have them actually try the wrong combinations and show them physically what happens. Seeing the reaction fail, then getting into why that is would likely stick more than just seeing a red X mark beside the wrong selection on paper. Always found doing the lab course first made the subject just make sense.

The "you won't always have a reference" argument is nonsense. Am I going to be teleported back in time and have to recreate modern medicine?
