The late Arthur I. Vogel, formerly Head of the Chemistry Department, Woolwich Polytechnic, London Revised by J. Bassett, R. C. Denney, and J. Mendham, Thames (formerly Woolwich) Polytechnic, London; and G. H. Jeffery, formerly of the School of Chemistry, Thames Polytechnic, London VogeJ has been an essential part of any well-equipped analytical laboratory, academic or professional, since 1939 and remains the basic text for the teaching and practice of quantitative inorganic analytical chemistry. This fourth edition, a complete revision of the 1962 volume, has been designed to bring the book completely up-to-date in modern methods of analysis, maintaining a very careful balance between traditional methods and modern instrumental techniques. The various chapters have undergone substantial changes. Sampling and statistics are now treated in greater detail than in the previous editions. The sections on gravimetry and titrimetry have been reorganized in line with the current level of usage, and substantial extensions have been made to the information dealing with spectrometric and electrochemical methods including details of modern instruments available for these purposes. For the first time atomic absorption spectrometry is introduced, along with an introduction to the theory of the subject. Chromatographic and thermal methods are also dealt with in connection with their applications in inorganic chemistry. '[VogeJ] should have a strong appeal to teachers and students of all grades, as well as being an essential volume for the reference library.' —Chemical Age 1978. 960 pages, 20 line drawings, 29 halftones, 20 tables cloth $35.95
The late Arthur I. Vogel, formerly Head of the Chemistry Department, Woolwich Polytechnic, London Revised by B.S. Furniss, A.J. Hannaford, V. Rogers, P.W.G. Smith, and A.R. Tatchell, Thames (formerly Woolwich) Polytechnic, London Here is a completely revised and updated edition of a uniquely comprehensive reference work. In the two decades since the publication of the third edition, considerable changes have occurred in the theory and practice of organic chemistry. In order to incorporate these changes into the text, a number of important new features have been introduced, including major new sections on safety, chromatography, photochemistry, and spectroscopic methods. The section on experimental techniques has been completely rewritten to provide a thoroughly modern treatment of apparatus and reaction procedures, isolation and purification techniques, and methods for the determination of physical constants. The major proportion of the valuable preparative procedures included in the previous edition has been retained, and is supplemented by a selection of new synthetic methods. The expanded and reorganized preparative sections are accompanied by concise introductory surveys incorporating appropriate mechanistic discussions. The sections on qualitative organic analysis and derivative preparations have been combined and augmented by an extensive discussion of interpretive spectroscopy. Unique in providing in a single volume a comprehensive account of practical organic chemistry Vogel's Textbook is an essential handbook for students, teachers, and research workers alike. 1978. 1280 pages, 351 line drawings, 26 halftones cloth $45.95 ISBN 0-582-44250-8
