2 Essential Mathematics for NMR Spectroscopists Keith C Brown Beginning with a review of the important areas of mathematics, this book then covers many of the underlying theoretical and practical aspects of NMR spectroscopy from a maths point of view. Competence in algebra and introductory calculus is needed but all other maths concepts are covered. It will bridge a gap between high level and introductory titles used in NMR spectroscopy. Uniquely, it takes a very careful and pedagogical approach to the mathematics behind NMR. It leaves out very few steps, which distinguishes it from other books in the field. This is an essential text aimed at graduate students who are beginning their careers in NMR spectroscopy and laboratory managers if they need an understanding of the theoretical foundations of the technique.

3 Intermolecular Interactions in Crystals Fundamentals of Crystal Engineering Edited by Juan Novoa Crystal Engineering concerns the design and synthesis of molecular crystals with desired properties, which requires a deep understanding of intermolecular interactions. This new book brings together all the current information about the most relevant intermolecular interactions providing an introductory text for graduates. The textbook introduces the nature and identification of bonds and the latest knowledge of their physical meaning. Properties of the most relevant intermolecular bonds identified in molecular crystals are described. Cooperative effects from different bond types present in one solid are also explained.

4 NMR in Glycoscience and Glycotechnology Edited by Koichi Kato and Thomas Peters New Developments in NMR NMR in Glycoscience and Glycotechnology Edited by Koichi Kato and Thomas Peters Focusing on solution and solid-state NMR of carbohydrates, glycoproteins, glycotechnologies, biomass and related topics which will have significant impact on the development of therapeutic agents eg vaccines, this volume is timely and useful not only for NMR specialists but also for a broader scientific community. The precise analysis of glycosylation patterns in humans can be used in therapies of utmost importance. However, the complexity and heterogeneity of dynamic glycan structures often discouraged researchers from actively challenging and addressing this important issue. Written by leading experts in the field, this book is an important contribution to the literature in this area for a wide spectrum of readers.
