NMR Spectroscopy Explained : Simplified Theory, Applications and Examples for Organic Chemistry and Structural Biology provides a fresh, practical guide to NMR for both students and practitioners, in a clearly written and non-mathematical format. It gives the reader an intermediate level theoretical basis for understanding laboratory applications, developing concepts gradually within the context of examples and useful experiments. • Introduces students to modern NMR as applied to analysis of organic compounds. • Presents material in a clear, conversational style that is appealing to students. • Contains comprehensive coverage of how NMR experiments actually work. • Combines basic ideas with practical implementation of the spectrometer. • Provides an intermediate level theoretical basis for understanding laboratory experiments. • Develops concepts gradually within the context of examples and useful experiments. • Introduces the product operator formalism after introducing the simpler (but limited) vector model.
