• Important Figures of Analytical Chemistry from Germany in Brief Biographies.- Important Figures in Analytical Chemistry from Germany: From the Middle Ages to the Nineteenth Century.- Growth into a Scientific Discipline: The Nineteenth Century.- Development of Instrumental Techniques: The Twentieth Century.

"This book provides a comprehensive overview of the contributions of German chemists to the development of analytical chemistry, spanning from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century. ... it is addressed to all researchers who are curious about the way chemistry and analytical chemistry developed." (Luigia Sabbatini, Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, Vol. 40, 2015) "This book is part of a series, Springer briefs in molecular science, devoted to the history of chemistry. Following a general overview, each chapter consists of a very short introduction followed by a series of biographical entries, which are well referenced ... . the text is easy to read and the photographs are generally well produced ... . this book makes a useful addition to the chemical literature and is recommended to chemists and, in particular, historians of chemistry." (Peter Reed, Chemistry World, 2015)
