Synopses & Reviews
This book is intended as an introductory text. It starts at the very fundamentals of the interaction of light and matter and progresses through the laws of light absorption, instrumentation and standards to the newer chemometric techniques. Other chapters cover colour, structural aspects of UV spectroscopy, detection in high performace liquid chromatography and flourescence.
