NMR spectroscopy is one of the most important and widely used techniques for the identification of compounds. Based on an established course, this core text: offers a truly modern and updated approach; provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject; includes a multi-disciplinary approach, concentrating on basic principles and concepts; contains chapters of worked examples and problems to encourage a fuller understanding of topics; and, offers a pedagogical approach, starting with quarks and nucleons, and moving on to cover NMR imaging, COSY (Correlated Spectroscopy) and NOESY (Nuclear Overhauser Effect Spectroscopy). As a core subject in many science disciplines, this text will appeal to a wide range of students, as well as practising scientists and technicians. Assuming only a basic knowledge of complex numbers and matrices, it carefully and lucidly aids readers to fully understand this challenging subject.
