No small feat considering people with PhDs in the hard sciences are challenged to teach at an introductory level. It's quite simple, so of limited use by the end of the first semester of a 2 semester ochem series. Despite what the title suggests, it's got a brief explanation of the material, and then some questions. It's not strictly a workbook. I would strongly suggest getting it just before going into ochem to get a brief overview, and by the end of the first semester you'll see where things are heading in the 2nd semester. The practice questions are also good for the level of the book. Don't expect to get much out of this book if you are at the end of the year and looking for more practice questions. It's too basic for that.
