Book Description

0471157368 978-0471157366 December 23, 1997 1
Clear, accessible coverage of modern NMR spectroscopy-for students and professionals in many fields of science

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has made quantum leaps in the last decade, becoming a staple tool in such divergent fields as chemistry, physics, materials science, biology, and medicine. That is why it is essential that scientists working in these areas be fully conversant with current NMR theory and practice.

This down-to-basics text offers a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of the fundamentals of NMR spectroscopy. Using a straightforward approach that develops all concepts from a rudimentary level without using heavy mathematics, it gives readers the knowledge they need to solve any molecular structure problem from a complete set of NMR data. Topics are illustrated throughout with hundreds of figures and actual spectra. Chapter-end summaries and review problems with answers are included to help reinforce and test understanding of key material.

From NMR studies of biologically important molecules to magnetic resonance imaging, this book serves as an excellent all-around primer on NMR spectroscopic analysis.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is the study of molecular structure. It is a growing technique particularly in biochemistry and medicinal chemistry, that provides detailed information on molecular structure and dynamics that other methods cannot. Assuming only a first-year chemistry course for background, this practical guide describes all the necessary details of NMR spectral analysis.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reference that is worth it's weight in Gold, February 26, 2004
By 
This review is from: A Complete Introduction to Modern NMR Spectroscopy (Paperback)
A valuable refernce for any organic chemist in the early years of a career in industry or as a graduate student. Aviods being bogged down in quantum theory and explains NMR in a clear concise manner. I have read the first 1/3 and couldn't be more pleased. I would also recommend Andrew Derome as well.

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Complete Introduction to Modern NMR Spectroscopy (Paperback)
Macomber's book does not presume a rigorous practical or theoretical background in NMR for the reader. It is an invaluable first step for students and self-teachers of NMR. It is an excellent gateway to more intensive or mathematical texts.
