"The book contains a number of case studies and this brings the subject to life...This book would be a useful addition to the bookshelf of a pharmaceutical analysis laboratory."
BTS Newsletter, Summer 2005

"This book fills a gap for a comprehensive, comprehensible and illustrative guidebook and reference on current method validation in pharmaceutical analysis. I would thoroughly recommend purchase of this book which I would anticipate will become highly cited over the coming years."
Chromatographia

"...a well-written textbook with well-organized chapters...extensively referenced from world-renowned experts in the field."
