This approach is brilliant! Visualizing organic chemistry can transform the learning experience. It's not just about memorizing reactions; it's about feeling the flow of mechanisms. I wonder how this could change student engagement in complex topics.

This was a fantastically interesting course, and I in particular owe Professor Parsons a debt of thanks for going above and beyond in helping this humanities-background student work through the concepts! It was great prep for the Harvard food science micro course I am now doing.

We tried hard to be aware of this in the new edition of Chemistry3. It’s not perfect yet but hope readers notice a better balance. And not just photos but mentions too.
