Review
by J. Landesberg, Adelphi University
Gokel (Washington Univ., St. Louis) has prepared a new edition (1st ed., 1987) of a useful handbook that students and researchers will find extremely valuable. It is a convenient reference work that provides tables for physical constants of organic and inorganic compounds as well as spectral data and thermodynamic properties; these sections make up the bulk of the manual. There are more than a thousand pages of tabled data, divided into 11 sections: organic compounds; inorganic and organometallic compounds; properties of atoms, radicals, and bonds; physical properties; thermodynamic properties; spectroscopy; physiochemical relationships; electrolytes, electromotive force, and chemical equilibrium; data useful in laboratory manipulations and analysis; polymers, rubbers, fats, oils, and waxes; abbreviations, constants, and conversion factors. Easy-to-use index. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students through professionals.
