Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Although originally invented and employed by physicists, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy has proven to be a very efficient technique for studying a wide range of phenomena in many fields, such as chemistry, biochemistry, geology, archaeology, medicine, biotechnology, and environmental sciences. Acknowledging that not all studies require the same level of understanding of this technique, this book thus provides a practical treatise clearly oriented toward applications, which should be useful to students and researchers of various levels and disciplines. In this book, the principles of continuous wave EPR spectroscopy are progressively, but rigorously, introduced, with emphasis on interpretation of the collected spectra. Each chapter is followed by a section highlighting important points for applications, together with exercises solved at the end of the book. A glossary defines the main terms used in the book, and particular topics, whose knowledge is not required forunderstanding the main text, are developed in appendices for more inquisitive readers.

Patrick Bertrand received his undergraduate education at the Ecole Centrale de Paris. He received his PhD in physics in 1977 and his doctorat es sciences in 1981. Since 1989, he has been a Professor at the Université de Provence, now Aix-Marseille University. He is a well-known specialist in the applications of EPR spectroscopy to the study of electron-transfer proteins and redox enzymes. He is the author of over a hundred publications and several books in this field.

Reviews for Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy: Fundamentals

“The book targets graduate students and researchers who are interested in acquiring the broad background knowledge needed to interpret the spectra and understand the applications of EPR technique. A set of problems, with hints to solutions, covers a wide range of difficulty.” (Christian Brosseau, Optics & Photonics News, osa-opn.org, October 1, 2020)
