"The editor has done an excellent job. The book is strongly recommended for any research group seriously involved in the application of modern e.p.r. methods in biology or medicine." --International Journal of Biological Macromolecules

"...the book will be valuable for several years to come and the Editor is to be congratulated on his timely venture. I urge all people who claim to be active in EPR to study it." --Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry

Advanced EPR: Applications in Biology and Biochemistry provides an up-to-date survey of existing EPR techniques and their applications in biology and biochemistry, and also provides a wealth of ideas for future developments in instrumentation and theory. The material is broadly organized into four parts. In the first part (chapters 1 to 6) pulsed EPR is discussed in detail. The second part (chapters 7 to 12) provides detailed discussions of a number of novel and experimental methods. The third part comprises seven chapters on double-resonance techniques, five on ENDOR and two on optically- and reaction yield-detected resonance. The final part is devoted to a thorough discussion of a number of new developments in the application of EPR to various biological and biochemical problems.
