The highly acclaimed Encyclopedia of Analytical Chemistry provides a much needed professional level reference work for the 21st Century. Encyclopedia of Analytical Chemistry is the most comprehensive analytical chemistry reference available, covering all aspects from theory and instrumentation through applications and techniques.
The chemistry and techniques are described as performed in the laboratory (environmental, clinical, QC, research, university), in the field or by remote sensing. The level of detail is similar to that of a lab protocol and together with the cited references, will support the analysis of complex inorganic, organic and biological structures by academic and industrial researchers. Encyclopedia of Analytical Chemistry also enables preparation of procedures, protocols and "cookbooks" by managers and staff of laboratories.
Encyclopedia of Analytical Chemistry comprises over 600 articles, arranged alphabetically by topic, in approximately 14000 pages, in 15 volumes.
Features:
* Outstanding authorship and the highest calibre editors
* Excellence of peer-review
* Article Summaries
* Over 6500 illustrations, many in colour
* Extensive cross-referencing to facilitate navigation between articles
* Extensive bibliographies with up-to-date references
Encyclopedia of Analytical Chemistry is the essential cross-disciplinary reference work for all analytical chemists in academia and industry. All fields of chemical research are covered: analytical, organic, physical, polymer, inorganic biomedical, environmental, pharmaceutical, industrial, petroleum, forensics and food science.

"The encyclopedia will be of great value for all scientists employing and interpreting analytical methods. Therefore, the purchase of this work can be unrestrictedly recommended to libraries in universities, governmental organisations and industrial enterprises." (Angewandte Chemie International Edition, March 2002)
"I therefore can unreservedly be recommended to anyone who has to deal with analytical chemistry, be it as user, researcher, teacher or student. Especially libraries should not miss this chance of getting a contemporary overview over a highly dynamic field of chemical science" (F.L. Dickert, Peter A. Lieberzeit Institute of Analytical Chemistry, Vienna University)
