"This is very nicely produced book is the first comprehensive treatment of FFF since Janca's book...it is required reading for all users of FFF...any collection of books on separation sciences would be incomplete without it." (Trends in Analytical Chemistry, Vol. 20, No. 5, 2001)"The goal of these 34 contributions is to provide a guide for first-time users of FFF by describing the four primary subtechniques, with specific examples and applications for each." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 24, No. 4, December 2000)
