In contrast to the second edition, the third edition of ‘‘Fungi and Food Spoilage’’ is evolutionary rather than revolutionary.

Emphasis on structure activity relationship, molecules in 3-D and spectroscopic methods based on homologous series.

This explains the ongoing success of the earlier editions of this book. However, since the amount of available data has considerably increased over the years, we decided to prepare an entirely new manuscript.

Although numerical data are, in principle, universal, the compilations presented in this book are extensively annotated and interleaved with text.

This edition covers all important areas of the chemical industry, yet it is reasonable that it can be covered in 40 hours of lecture.

Whilst this book will provide the necessary subject matter, the reader will ultimately be responsible for their own progress. Tutors will also find this book invaluable as a source of material for lectures and tutorials.

The aim of this book is to help people performing routine operations in Organic Synthesis in a laboratory. This book, the first one in a series, focuses on the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones.

The aim of this book is to describe the major features of these compounds and the way in which chemical and physical methods have been used to establish their structures and then to show how these structures can be rationalised in ...

This textbook introduces the basic facts and principles of chemistry. Suitable for senior high and college students.

Abstract: A college textbook covering the broad fields of the structural principles and reaction behavior of organic molecules is presented for chemistry majors.
