Editorial Reviews

Review
`... recommended without reservation both to the novice and to the expert in fluorescence.'
Analytical Biochemistry
`In addition to its use as a student text, it should be a particularly valuable reference for those involved in biochemical research.'
Chemistry in Britain


Product Description
`In the second edition of Principles I have attempted to maintain the emphasis on basics, while updating the examples to include more recent results from the literature. There is a new chapter providing an overview of extrinisic fluorophores. The discussion of timeresolved measurements has been expanded to two chapters. Quenching has also been expanded in two chapters. Energy transfer and anisotropy have each been expanded to three chapters. There is also a new chapter on fluorescence sensing. To enhance the usefulness of this book as a textbook, most chapters are followed by a set of problems. Sections which describe advanced topics are indicated as such, to allow these sections to be skipped in an introduction course. Glossaries are provided for commonly used acronyms and mathematical symbols. For those wanting additional informtion, the final appendix contains a list of recommended books which expand on various specialized topics.' from the author's Preface --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

2.0 out of 5 stars Over Rated, December 13, 2007
This book is fine if you want to pay for a reprint of papers and other peoples theories in one book, the book is over rated, and compiled by an old out of date scientist who has lost his shelf life a decade ago. Everything in this book can be found free of charge in published papers.
Why is the author allowed to delete peoples reviews and comments when its not favourable ? I also found it interesting that most of these reviews where compiled by his long standing girl friend whom is his secretary, just look at the reviewers ! shame shame shame on you ! Is it any wonder why everyone who has the misfortune of working with this man hates the very sound of his name and leaves with a bitter taste in their mouth - well known in the community, for being a joke ! follow Wolfbeis, Gratton, Geddes who are far more on the cutting edge of science, not following other peoples work and then claiming it as their own.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Luminescence Bible, March 8, 2007
What's more to say? This is the authoritative, the definitive volume for luminescence experiments from theory to all of the most useful applications. It is readable, dense, useful and indispensable if you do fluorescence, lifetime measurements, energy transfer studies, etc., etc.
