Using Literature

by Stuart James

Introduces the chemist to the available literature and to the methodology for information searching. It uses actual facsimile pages to illustrate the variety and requirements of individual sources of reference -- classical works, standard sources, and new database and online material. Material is at the level of Senior Technician and is designed for those interested in the basics of analytical chemistry and instrumental techniques who wish to study in a more flexible way or to augment traditional college attendance. Self Assessment Questions test and reinforce understanding of the material, and a Summary and List of Objectives appear at intervals throughout the text. Ample reference lists of commonly used scientific symbols and values, units of measurement and a periodic table are provided at the end of the book.
