"Joel Karty doesn't just think that students benefit from a mechanistic approach-he can prove it. With the third edition, Joel brings organic chemistry to life through a new series of student-focused videos on mastering mechanisms and succeeding in the course. Furthermore, Joel has brought more active-learning into the text, including a new two-column solved problem format that helps promote understanding over memorization, and in-text features that challenge students to apply new concepts just after reading about them"--

Motivate every student to think about, practice, and apply organic chemistry.

Joel Karty's text helps students succeed in organic chemistry, and our adopters overwhelmingly agree that his mechanistically organized approach works. The Third Edition includes a new video series that models the critical thinking skills that students need to master. Redesigned, two-column Solved Problems then coach students in applying those critical thinking skills to solving chemical equations, which helps them avoid overreliance on memorization. Interactive features in the ebook and Smartwork consistently give students opportunities to practice what they’ve learned.

Joel Karty earned his BS in chemistry at the University of Puget Sound and his PhD at Stanford University. He carried out postdoctoral work with Stephen Craig at Duke University and began teaching at Elon University in the fall of 2001, where he currently holds the rank of full professor. At Elon, Joel teaches primarily the organic chemistry sequence and general chemistry, as well as physical chemistry. In the summers, he teaches an organic chemistry preparatory course as part of the SMDEP program at the Summer Biomedical Sciences Institute sponsored by the Duke University School of Medicine. His research interests include studying the contributions by resonance and inductive effects in fundamental chemical systems, and he also investigates the mechanism for pattern formation in periodic precipitation reactions (such as the Liesegang phenomenon). Joel is the author of the very successful student supplement, The Nuts and Bolts of Organic Chemistry (2005), which has gone into its second edition as Get Ready for Organic Chemistry (2011).
