Announcing "Organic Chemistry"
Available from The Great Courses in October, 2014!

The Great Courses - Now Enjoy Brilliant College Courses in Your Car or Home
Over the last 12 months, I have been working diligently alongside the talented people at The Great Courses to bring to you an Organic Chemistry course for everyone!  Whether you are a rising sophomore preparing for the rigors of a college O-chem course or someone in the throws of a life-long love affair with learning topics of all kinds, you will find something for everyone in this course!

In short, if you are searching for an entertaining and fun, yet rigorous and technical introduction to Organic Chemistry - then I am proud to invite you to take a tour of this powerful, fascinating and ever-growing science with me.  We will spend 36 lectures together discussing a broad array of topics, including how Organic Chemistry saved the whales, nearly destroyed the ozone layer, and even how it might be used in the future to launch our species into space.  These are just a few of the many fascinating topics that we will explore together.

The Great Courses has given me an opportunity to teach Organic Chemistry in way that it never has been before: with college-level detail, but broadcast TV-quality illustration and graphics.  It is a marriage of teaching techniques which is long overdue, and you can experience it with my new course at your own pace in the comfort of your own home!


I spend 18 hours explaining all of the basics of Organic Chemistry which can help college-level students get their head wrapped around this topic - all mixed with a healthy dose of historical narrative and modern examples to spice up the subject!
