A new edition of the popular abridgement of the author's "Organic Chemistry, 4th Edition", this text contains all the material of the parent text except for the chapters on special topics and nucleic acids. This edition, unlike the previous two editions, is in a full-colour format, which makes the illustrative material much more effective and informative. It also features an early treatment of stereochemistry, use of ionic reactions to introduce mechanisms, early treatment of alcohols and ethers, expanded treatment of organic synthesis, and many new problems.

The molecule on the cover is called dopamine. Although this is a relatively simple organic molecule, it is a major neurotransmitter in the brain. Dopamine plays a pivotal role in the regulation and control of movement, motivation and cognition. It also is closely linked to reward, reinforcement and addiction. Abnormalities in brain dopamine are associated with many neurological and psychiatric disorders including Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia and substance abuse. This close association between dopamine and neurological and psychiatric diseases and with substance abuse make the dopimine system an important topic in neurosciences research and an important molecular target for drug development.
