"It is a comprehensive overview of non-covalent interactions and a guide to characterising molecular complexes by physical methods." (Journal of Inclusion Phenomena Macrocyclic Chemistry, No.40 2001)"... this book... deserves to find a large audience. Both experienced and future researchers will benefit from reading it and keeping it close at hand." (Angewandte Chemie, 18th September 2000)"Any research group in this field will find this book an excellent resource... it would be an excellent 'starter pack' for graduate students about to embark on an adventure in supramolecular chemistry." (Chemistry in Britain, May 2000)
