Many of the important techniques of analytical chemistry remain based on established principles, but some areas are undergoing rapid change. Revisions and additions to the successful second edition of this book include the wider application of the Fourier transform principle to IR as well as NMR, a look at the continuing rise in the importance of plasma based atomic spectrometry including the development of ICP-MS and the relative decline of arc-spark emission methods, the rapid developments in computer applications, the increasing prominence of thermal methods of analysis and the highlighting of y-ray spectrometry post-Chernobyl. Written for undergraduate students of analytical chemistry, this book also provides routes to follow up more specialized study.
