He was previously a member of the chemistry faculty of the Catholic University of America. Dr. Gordon received a B.S. degree in Chemical Engineering from Northeastern University and a Ph.D. degree in Organic Chemistry from New York University. He is the author of more than 25 articles published in journals and books in such diverse areas as stereochemistry, synthesis, new drug development, organic semiconductors and chemical education. R. A. FORD is Assistant Professor at Montgomery College in Takoma Park, Maryland. He was previously Assistant Professor at Catholic University. Dr. Ford received a Ph.D. degree at Wayne State University. Klappentext information, such as names and addresses of microanalysis companies and chemistry publishers, descriptions and commercial sources of atomic and molecular models, and safety data for hazardous chemicals. More than 500 key references are also included, most of which are recent. There are important hints and definitions associated with the art as well as the state of the art for the appropriate subjects. Also found throughout the book are about 250 suppliers and directions for obtaining special booklets or other material. Containing a wealth of useful information, The Chemists Companion will be an indispensable guide for students and professional chemists in nearly all the chemical disciplines. In addition, it will provide for the teacher and student an unusual adjunct for use in a broad cross-section of chemistry courses. Zusammenfassung Here in one source is a wide variety of practical! everyday information often required by chemists but seldom found together! if at all! in the standard handbooks! data collections! manuals! and other usual sources.
