The second edition of this thorough compendium contains a unique collection of high-level information on NMR, MRI, and ESR. The breadth of the coverage is reflected by the team of contributors from 20 nations, spanning a broad spectrum of disciplines. Modern Magnetic Resonance provides a unique and comprehensive resource on up-to-date uses and applications of magnetic resonance techniques in the sciences, including chemistry, biology, materials, food, medicine, pharmaceuticals and marine science. The widespread appeal of MMR methods for revealing information at the molecular and microscopic levels is noted and examples are provided from the chemical and other sciences. This unique set of volumes covers all the areas encompassed by "Modern Magnetic Resonance", by bringing together the various techniques and their applications in many scientific areas, the internationally renowned Editors have created a resource of broad appeal to the scientific community.

Professor Graham A. Webb has been actively engaged in research involving many aspects of NMR for about 25 years both at University College London and the University of Surrey, where he became a Professor of Physical Chemistry. During this time he authored more than 400 published primary research papers, gave presentations at about 200 international conferences dealing with NMR and supervised about 70 Ph.D. theses. He is editor of Annual Reports on NMR  and he has edited The Royal Society of Chemistry Specialist Periodical Reports on NMR for over thirty years. Professor Webb organizes the biennial international conferences on Applications of NMR in Food Science.
