In chemistry, good problem-solving requires a balanced combination of scientific intuition andmethodical analysis. Additionally, thoughtfully presented diagrams and infographics can conveya large amount of complex information in a more intuitive and accessible manner. 100 Must-KnowMechanisms (Second Edition) strives to be at the intersection of these two key principles. Itsthorough visualizations enable experienced readers to use it as a quick reference for specificmechanisms of interest. At the same time, the book’s breadth of covered reactions, from classic tocutting-edge, make it a good study-aid for the developing chemist. A slow and consistent study ofthe entire series of mechanisms can help set the foundation for good scientific intuition, while itsdetailed infographics and careful navigation features encourage coming back to it frequently. Thisedition includes over 40 new illustrations, numerous new mechanistic schemes, enhanced originalfigures with a variety of real-case examples, and more
