Description
Most chemists, whether they are biochemists, organic, analytical, pharmaceutical or clinical chemists and many pharmacists and biologists
need to perform chemical analysis. Consequently, they are not only confronted with carrying out the actual analysis, but also with problems
such as method selection, experimental design, optimization, calibration, data acquisition and handling, and statistics in order to obtain
maximum relevant chemical information. In other words: they are confronted with chemometrics. This book on chemometrics, written by some
of the leaders in the field, aims to provide a thorough, up-to-date introduction to this subject. The reader is given the opportunity
to acquaint himself with the tools used in this discipline and the way in which they are applied. Some practical examples are given and
the reader is shown how to select the appropriate tools in a given situation.
As such the book provides the means to approach and
solve analytical problems strategically and systematically, without the need for the reader to become a fully-fledged chemometrician.
The authors' aim was to write a tutorial book which would be useful to readers at every level in this field.
