Electronic and photoelectron spectroscopy provides extraordinarily detailed information on the properties of molecules. This book presents the basic principles and experimental techniques employed in electronic and photoelectron spectroscopy. A major feature is the extensive use of case studies to illustrate how spectra are assigned and how information can be extracted. The text is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying courses in spectroscopy.

Review
"For a scientist with a solid math and chemistry background, this is an excellent book on spectroscopy. Highly recommended." CHOICE
"This text bridges the gap between the basics and cutting edge applications of electronic spectroscopy at a level appropriate for upper-level undergraduates and junior graduate students...clearly written and easily digested." - Journal of the American Chemistry Society, Caroline Chick Jarrold, Indiana University

Book Description
Electronic and photoelectron spectroscopy provides extraordinarily detailed information on the properties of molecules. Applications extend beyond spectroscopy into important areas such as chemical dynamics, kinetics and atmospheric chemistry. This book aims to provide the reader with a firm grounding of the basic principles and experimental techniques employed in electronic and photoelectron spectroscopy. A major and unique feature is the extensive use of Case Studies to illustrate how spectra are assigned and how information can be extracted. The book is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying courses in spectroscopy.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Book for Spectroscopists,
By
This review is from: Electronic and Photoelectron Spectroscopy: Fundamentals and Case Studies (Hardcover)
I am a graduate student studying Chemical Physics and own many spectroscopy books. This book is the best for giving short and concise introductions to the most important fundamental topics in electronic and photoelectron spectroscopy. Unlike Herzberg or E.B. Wilson text, there aren't many mathematical derivations which is nice if you want to short review on a specific topic and don't want to muck around in the details.
The way the book is broken up into three sections is also very nice in that you can build up to reading and understanding the Case Studies in the last part of the book. I recommend this book to any student that need to know fundamental spectroscopy. If you need to know about photoelectron spectroscopy (my area of research), this is a must have.
3.0 out of 5 stars
Well-written, poorly interpreted for kindle,

This review is from: Electronic and Photoelectron Spectroscopy: Fundamentals and Case Studies (Kindle Edition)
As far as I've been able to tell so far, this book is well-written and the level is good for a graduate student in spectroscopy. The kindle version has a table of contents, but no chapter breaks that allow the reader to navigate the book. To me, that is a serious oversight, and I hope the publisher considers adding that key feature. I will probably return this and get the paperback version.
