Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy in Biology and Medicine, presents the experimental and basic aspects of functional and pathological tissue characterization of MRS. A balance is drawn between the basic science, practical technologies and biomedical applications. Covering recent developments in the field: localization, 2D NMR, spectroscopic imaging, data quantification and quality assessment, as well as the basic principles of magnetic resonance spectroscopy, this book provides the lecturer and postdoctoral student, with a valuable research tool for the laboratory. This book is didactically-orientated, with 13 chapters devoted to MRS methodology, 3 chapters on MRS equipment, 13 chapters on clinical and experimental MRS, as well as an appendix containing the basic sciences for MRS and a MRS glossary.

Review:

This is a very find product that represents an encyclopedic coverage of this exciting and emerging field of study and expertise. The book is well illustrated, both with line diagrams and occasional half-tone images. There are several thousands of references. The detail that has been followed on producing this magnificent tome extends to a multilingual glossary including French, Germany, Spanish and Italian in addition to English. The work is a must for all who are engaged in MRS - or who wish to understand the literature in this area.

...as the basis for a course or series of lectures, it should be very suitable. In general, the editors have succeeded in putting together a clear and comprehensive view of a broad field... The book is well organized and carefully integrated, and relatively free of typographical errors-something which is all too rare in current publications. The physical production is excellent and there are a fair number of illustrations, all of high quality.
