"The authors bring complementary expertise to this book. . .Both experiments and theory are treated with considerable depth. . . .From start to finish this book is excellent. . . .Anyone working in this field or in related fields will want to own this book."--Journal of the American Chemical Society"The authors are to be congratulated and thanked for a timely and important contribution to the textbook literature in the field of unimolecular reactions. They have produced a remarkably balanced and integrated account of both experiment and theory, which is already becoming a standard reference for workers in the field." --Journal of Chemical Education"The authors bring complementary expertise to this book. . .Both experiments and theory are treated with considerable depth. . . .From start to finish this book is excellent. . . .Anyone working in this field or in related fields will want to own this book."--Journal of the American Chemical Society"The authors are to be congratulated and thanked for a timely and important contribution to the textbook literature in the field of unimolecular reactions.
