Description

The powerful and versatile technique of EPR is covered succinctly and clearly in this primer, making it an ideal introduction for those new to the field.

  • Focused introductions designed to give students an in-depth understanding of a diverse range of important topics in modern chemistry.
  • Frequent diagrams and margin notes support students in their learning.
  • Questions at the end of every chapter and interactive online questions encourage active learning and promote deep understanding.
  • In-depth assistance provided on the practical interpretation and generation of EPR spectra.
  • The technique's diverse applications are demonstrated through frequent worked examples.
