{"product_id":"9789401060813","title":"Chemical Nomenclature","description":"\u003ch1\u003eChemical Nomenclature\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003ch2\u003eThurlow, K.J.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eChemical nomenclature can be a complicated subject. As a  result, most works on the subject are rather dry textbooks and  primarily consist of sets of instructions on how to name chemicals.  This practical book proves that chemical nomenclature can be  interesting, not just a `necessary evil'. \u003cbr\u003e  Written in a lively and engaging style by experts in their particular  fields, this new book provides a general discussion on why good, clear  nomenclature is needed. It introduces the reader to the various forms  of nomenclature without reading like a textbook. Both `systematic' and  `trivial' nomenclature systems are used widely (and interchangeably)  in chemistry and this new book covers both areas. For example,  systematic nomenclature in both the CAS and IUPAC styles is  introduced. These systems have many similarities but important  differences which the chemist should be aware of. Specialized naming  systems are needed for polymers and natural products and these areas  are covered in separate chapters. The naming of elements is a very  topical subject at the moment and so this is included to ensure a  comprehensive coverage. \u003cbr\u003e  Covering a wide range of topics in the area of nomenclature and acting  as an introduction to a varied field, this book will be of interest to  industrial chemists as well as students at senior undergraduate and  postgraduate level.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-28\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401060813\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-4958-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 247\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358782550156,"sku":"9789401060813","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401060813.jpg?v=1775794165","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789401060813","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
