Description
Spin Dynamics: Basics of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Second Edition is a comprehensive and modern introduction which focuses on those essential principles and concepts needed for a thorough understanding of the subject, rather than the practical aspects. The quantum theory of nuclear magnets is presented within a strong physical framework, supported by figures. The book assumes only a basic knowledge of complex numbers and matrices, and provides the reader with numerous worked examples and exercises to encourage understanding. With the explicit aim of carefully developing the subject from the beginning, the text starts with coverage of quarks and nucleons and progresses through to a detailed explanation of several important NMR experiments, including NMR imaging, COSY, NOESY and TROSY. Completely revised and updated, the Second Edition features new material on the properties and distributions of isotopes, chemical shift anisotropy and quadrupolar interactions, Pake patterns, spin echoes, slice selection in NMR imaging, and a complete new chapter on the NMR spectroscopy of quadrupolar nuclei. New appendices have been included on Euler angles, and coherence selection by field gradients. As in the first edition, all material is heavily supported by graphics, much of which is new to this edition. Written for undergraduates and postgraduate students taking a first course in NMR spectroscopy and for those needing an up-to-date account of the subject, this multi-disciplinary book will appeal to chemical, physical, material, life, medical, earth and environmental scientists. The detailed physical insights will also make the book of interest for experienced spectroscopists and NMR researchers. • An accessible and carefully written introduction, designed to help students to fully understand this complex and dynamic subject• Takes a multi-disciplinary approach, focusing on basic principles and concepts rather than the more practical aspects• Presents a strong pedagogical approach throughout, with emphasis placed on individual spins to aid understanding• Includes numerous worked examples, problems, further reading and additional notesPraise from the reviews of the First Edition:”This is an excellent book… that many teachers of NMR spectroscopy will cherish… It deserves to be a ‘classic’ among NMR spectroscopy texts.” NMR IN BIOMEDICINE”I strongly recommend this book to everyone…it is probably the best modern comprehensive description of the subject.” ANGEWANDTE CHEMIE, INTERNATIONAL EDITION
User’s Reviews
Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐This book can be regarded as a necessary reading for researchers or users in the field of NMR. The author explains the relationship between quantum mechanics and NMR in a simple and precise way, while attaching great importance of visualization and intuition. NMR is a concrete manifestation of quantum angular momentum, therefore, the author was implementing the abstract quantum spin into visualization throughout this book. The author’s effort and enthusiasm to make readers understand and immerse themselves in the fascinating part of NMR is self-evident.Malcolm H. Levitt is one of the masters of solid-state NMR, but the proportion of solid-state NMR in this book is quite low. I look forward to his future publication of a book dedicated to solid-state NMR.
⭐I couldn’t wait to read it, but after just a few minutes of opening it, I’m turning the page, and it FALLS OUT IN MY HAND. Five pages later it happens again. Very poor quality paperback binding. The pages were never even attached- simply tucked inside the book in the right spot. And with this happening less than 10 pages in, I’m not looking forward to seeing how many more times this happens over the rest of the 760 pages… Very upset that this is what I get for $75! I even bought one for a friend and am very frustrated about the poor investment.**Note: I bought TWO- one for me and one for a friend, and now they both have pages falling out! So this was not even a one-time thing! Spoke to Wiley publishing, and they claim the book was not actually theirs. Mixed messages, low quality product, frustrating.
⭐A quality book that is not too heavy.
⭐perfect
⭐I’m a graduate student studying for oral exams and this book really helped NMR click for me. Very well written and approachable, even for someone with a weaker math background (biochem) who needs to learn NMR!
⭐As described and arrived on time
⭐It’s incredible how very technical concept are made easy to follow. Well written, well structured and complete.The only defect is that my copy is lacking some pages at the end.
⭐The book really does a very good job explaining such a difficult subject tojust about anyone with high school math background. I wish more advanced physicstopics were handled this way.
⭐Ein Empfehlung meines Dozenten und ich bereue die Kaufentscheidung nicht! Sehr gut und anschaulich erklärt. Die mathematischen Grundlagen sind auch erklärt. Besonders die vielen Beispiele und visuellen Darstellungen machen die Thematik sehr gut verständlich.Deutlich klar Erklärung, hilfreich für AnfängerSo schnell,dass ich genug Zeit habe zu wiederholenI like it
⭐I use it as reference book
