DESCRIPTION:
"$1,200??" according to DStanding. I bought the 1997 edition of this book, with CD, in 2001 for $70.00 -- I cannot recommend it as being worth more than that. I really didn't find it to be very useful for my original intent, which was to have a good reference for instrumental techniques, including those used in pharmaceutical and biological research. The CD included with the book has a simple, almost DOS level, program that installs and aids to some small extent in picking specific methods to do analysis of some sample type you input. My only. Review from Analytical Consumer Jo R. Jordan Have you ever tried to explain what analytical chemistry is, to a friend, relative, or stranger feigning interest in what you do? The attempt quickly reveals the depth and complexity of a field so easily named with two simple words. Where do you begin? What do you leave out? Trying to write a textbook on the many facets of analytical chemistry is even more difficult; some attempts run to many volumes. Some texts focus on the physical principles of a technique, others on the applications. Prentice-Hall's new . "A Good book for Any instrumental Lab" according to Robert Garber. This book is a must for the instrumental chemist. It covers it some detail most general and specialized instrumental techniques employed by chemist. It also gives specific applications of these techniques, manufacturers of instruments and supplies, and estimates on costs. In my lab I often find people first refering to this book when reviewing a new technique or wishing to 'brush up' on a technique they have not used in a while. It is a good first reference and I reccomend it to any analytical chemist.
Each section consists of chapters describing the most commonly used instrumental techniques in the area of analysis. Each chapter presents basic information about a specific technique. Each chapter contains the following topics: 1) a summary page, 2) how it works, 3) what it does including current applications, 4) types of samples analyzed, practical economic information, 5) summary of the routine operational characteristics, and 6) references to more detailed information on the technique.. This book/disk Handbook provides introductory information about the most widely used instrumental techniques and methods used in analytical chemistry and helps the reader determine which technique is most appropriate for their needs. The common format used for each chapter facilitates selection and comparison of techniques. This book/disk Handbook consists of an introduction and seven sections, each addressing a major area of chemical analysis (separation techniques, optical spectroscopic techniques-qualitative, optical spectroscopic techniques-quantitative, mass spectrometry, electrochemical techniques, microscopic and surface techniques, polymer and macromolecular techniques) and a floppy disk containing Technique Selection software
