This text gives students a solid understanding of organic chemistry by stressing how fundamental reaction mechanisms function and how reactions occur. Through three editions, Organic Chemistry by Frank Carey, has distinguished itself as one of the most fundamentally sound and innovative two-semester organic chemistry texts on the market. Now through the use of state-of-the-art technology, the 4th edition of the text breaks new ground in presenting organic chemistry as a three-dimensional science. With over 300 new illustrations and seamless integration of reaction animations and molecular modeling exercises, the 4th edition of Carey clearly offers the most up-to-date approach to the study of organic chemistry.
Francis A. Carey is a native of Pennsylvania, educated in the public schools of Philadelphia, at Drexel University (B.S. in chemistry, 1959), and at Penn State (Ph.D. 1963). Following postdoctoral work at Harvard and military service, he was appointed to the chemistry faculty of the University of Virginia in 1966. Prior to retiring in 2000, he regularly taught the two-semester lecture courses in general chemistry and organic chemistry. With his students, Professor Carey has published over forty research papers in synthetic and mechanistic organic chemistry. In addition to this text, he is coauthor (with Robert C. Atkins) of Organic Chemistry: A Brief Course and (with Richard J. Sundberg) of Advanced Organic Chemistry, a two-volume treatment designed for graduate students and advanced undergraduates. He was a member of the Committee of Examiners of The Graduate Record Examination in Chemistry from 1993-2000. Frank and his wife Jill, who is a teacher/director of a preschool and a church organist, are the parents of Andy, Bob, and Bill and the grandparents of Riyad and Ava.
