Book Description

047197255X 978-0471972556 April 29, 1997 Second Edition
Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy Second Edition Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy incorporates two widely used and well established analytical chemistry techniques. This second edition follows an extremely successful first edition, Atomic Absorption and Emission Spectroscopy, and takes into account the increasing contribution in recent years of plasma emission spectroscopy to this important field. Plasma-based techniques are discussed in detail and the coupting of plasma spectroscopy with mass spectrometry is also considered. This highly readable text first introduces the reader to the subject and then, by means of self-assessment questions, regular summaries and lists of learning objectives, allows the readers to learn more about this important subject at their own pace. Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy is an excellent introduction to the topic for the practising analyst. Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning This series provides a uniquely comprehensive and integrated coverage of analytical chemistry, focusing on basic concepts, classical methods, instrumental techniques and applications. The learning objectives of each text are clearly identified and the student's understanding of the material is constantly challenged by self-assessment questions with reinforcing or remedial responses. The overall objective of Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning is to enable the student to select and apply appropriate methods and techniques to solve analytical problems, and to interpret the results obtained.

4.0 out of 5 stars Clear, concise, and well thought out, November 19, 2002
By 
This review is from: Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy, 2nd Edition (Paperback)
Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy is a well thought out introduction to absorption and emission spectroscopy. The author presents the principles involved in AA, GFAA, ICP-AES, and ICP-MS in a clear and concise manner and provides self-assessment questions so readers can measure their understanding of the various subjects as they are presented. The author avoids unnecessary details in describing instrumentation while maintaining crystal clarity about how the systems work. Typical is the description of the Echelle spectrometer which could not have been easier to understand. The diagrams supported by concise narratives on distinctly uncluttered pages can hardly be improved upon. If you are looking for a good introduction to this subject you need look no further.
