This bestselling standard, now in its fifth, completely revised
English edition, is an excellent source of technological and
economic information on the most important precursors and
intermediates used in the chemical industry. Both a handbook and
ready reference, this volume has a uniform structure for ease of
use, with a number of fold-out flow charts illustrating complex
chemical processes, plus summaries and relevant statistical data in
the margins. The text is rounded off by a comprehensive list of
references and a detailed subject index.
From reviews of previous editions (authored by K.
Weissermel/H.-J. Arpe)
"This book is an immensely comprehensive and practical work.
University chemistry students would benefit from reading this book
as it provides a valuable insight into chemical technology, which
is often lacking in undergraduate chemistry courses. The university
lecturer can obtain examples of applied organic syntheses and keep
up to date with the constant changes in chemical manufacturing. It
should appeal most to chemists and engineers in the chemical
industry, who should benefit from the technological, scientific and
economic interrelationships and their potential developments."
(Synthesis - Journal of Synthetic Organic Chemistry)
"It would be unkind and misleading to call this book a poor man's
Kirk Othmer, but it could almost be described as an encyclopedia...
it is easy to read and one has to admire the authors' dedication
and endeavor in getting so much into a single volume. They have
provided a book that is interesting reading as well as being an
excellent reference. It is a highly recommended book, which I hope
the authors will find the energy to continue updating on a regular
basis." (Chemistry in Britain)
..".it should be ready to hand to every chemist or process engineer
involved directly or indirectly with industrial organic chemistry.
It should be in the hand of every higher-graduate student,
especially if chemical technology is not part of the study, like in
many college universities..."
(Tenside-Surfactants-Detergents)
"Whether student or scientist, theorist or practician - everybody
interested in industrial organic chemistry will appreciate this
work. ..." (farbe + lack)
