Robert Thornton Morrison (1918–2010)

Talk about comprehensive!

If you ever need something not covered here, you're probably a post-grad chemist.

Morrison and Boyd is *the* classic in my generation. I don't even keep one in my office, because every colleague has a copy that I can borrow.

This is the definitive college textbook of organic chemistry, used by most schools around the country. I graduated from college in 1973 and still remember using this book which I found to be highly informative and instructive (I got an A in the course).
