Organic Chemistry, Global Edition -- Modified Mastering Physics with Pearson eText

English

By (author): Jan Simek Leroy Wade

For courses in Organic Chemistry

Engage students in complex problem solving with unparalleled pedagogy

Wade & Simek's Organic Chemistry focuses students on the fundamental reasoning and principles of organic chemistry without compromising the conceptual underpinnings and clear explanations needed to prevent memorization. The authors' hallmark student-oriented approach to problem-solving directs students to the individual steps of each reaction, shows how the steps contribute to the overall reaction, and incorporates unique strategies and hints. Organized around functional groups, the text incorporates complete discussions of mechanisms. The two-tiered approach to Mechanism and Key Mechanism Boxes concentrates on 20 Key Mechanisms that comprise nearly all of the mechanisms students will encounter.

Mastering is the teaching and learning platform that empowers you to reach every student. By combining trusted author content with digital tools developed to engage students and emulate the office-hour experience, Mastering personalizes learning and improves results for each student.

L. G. Skip Wade received his B. A. from Rice in 1969 and then went on to Harvard University where he did research with Professor James D. White. While at Harvard he served as the Head Teaching Fellow for the organic laboratories and was strongly influenced by the teaching methods of two master educators Professors Leonard K. Nash and Frank H. Westheimer. After completing his Ph.D. at Harvard in 1974 Dr. Wade joined the chemistry faculty at Colorado State University. Over the course of fifteen years at Colorado State Dr. Wade taught organic chemistry to thousands of students working toward careers in all areas of biology chemistry human medicine veterinary medicine and environmental studies. He also authored research papers in organic synthesis and in chemical education as well as eleven books reviewing current research in organic synthesis. Since 1989 Dr. Wade has been a chemistry professor at Whitman College where he teaches organic chemistry and pursues interests in organic synthesis and forensic chemistry. Dr. Wade received the A. E. Lange Award for Distinguished Science Teaching at Whitman in 1993. Jan Simek was born to humble coal-mining parents who taught him to appreciate the importance of carbon at a very early age. At age 14 he was inspired to pursue a career teaching chemistry by his high school chemistry teacher Joe Plaskas. Under the guidance of Professor Kurt Kaufman at Kalamazoo College Dr. Simek began lab work in synthesis of natural products that turned into research in hop extracts for the Kalamazoo Spice Extraction Company. After receiving a master's degree from Stanford University Dr. Simek worked in the pharmaceutical industry synthesizing compounds designed to control diabetes and atherosclerosis and assisted in the isolation of anti-cancer antibiotics from natural sources. Returning to Stanford University Dr. Simek completed his Ph.D. with the legendary Professor Carl Djerassi who developed the first synthesis of steroidal oral contraceptives. Dr. Simek's 35-year teaching career was spent primarily at California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo where he received the university's Distinguished Teaching Award. Other teaching experiences include Albion College the University of Colorado at Boulder Kalamazoo College and the University of California at Berkeley. In addition to his pharmaceutical research he has industrial experience investigating dyes surfactants and liquid crystals and he continues to consult for the biotechnology industry. Although his outside interests include free climbing in Yosemite performing in a reggae band and parasailing over the Pacific as close as he gets to any of those is tending his backyard garden with his wife Judy.
