Description
Nuclear magnetic resonance and electron paramagnetic resonance have become some of the most powerful tools of modern analytical chemistry. From its origins in the 1940s to recent cutting edge advancements, the history of magnetic resonance is tied to the lives of the many scientists who helped explore its fundamental principles and practical applications. Pioneers of Magnetic Resonance is a collection of these stories, starting with the scientists who first
discovered the phenomena, detailing magnetic resonance's initial use in chemistry, and how it became such a ubiquitous technique. The authors' personal recollections of the giants in the field give unique insight into the connection between people and their impact on the scientific community.
