Orgaaniline keemia - Ants Tuulmets

2nd, revised and expanded edition.

In the development of this organic chemistry textbook, recommendations from practicing teachers have been taken into account; compared to the previous edition, the mandatory theoretical material has been slightly reduced and refined. The text is structured to highlight the most essential and required content. Supplementary materials include interesting facts and provide in-depth explanations of certain topics (for example, the chapter on nucleic acids). This offers teachers greater flexibility, allowing them to tailor their approach based on the capabilities of their students and the class, as well as their own personal preferences. The supplementary material also helps teachers establish connections between different subjects. Each chapter outlines key learning outcomes, provides a concise summary of the most important points, and includes numerous exercises. Discussing these exercises in class forms an integral part of the learning process.
The examples and supplementary materials primarily relate to everyday life, human health, and the chemical industry. The focus is on the economic and political role of the industry, rather than on technical details. The textbook is well-illustrated.
While designed for upper secondary school (gymnasium), the way the material is presented also makes it well-suited for use in vocational schools.
