Critics Review
[The text is] extremely clear and easy to follow. I really like the fact that applications are brought in. Even when they are referred to in later chapters, it gives the learner the possibility to see the ‘point’ of learning the material and why it is important. * Dr Charlotte Willans, University of Leeds *
Although this is a Primer and meant to be a good summary of the material concerned, I consider it to be excellent for most undergraduate module needs, and I would have no hesitation in adopting this text for my current short course within a module at FHEQ Levels 6 & 7. * Dr Chris Amodio, University of Surrey *
Helen C. Aspinall
Helen C. Aspinall is Professor of Chemistry at the University of Liverpool. She completed her BSc and PhD at UCL, and then continued her postdoctoral research at Columbia University in New York and then Queen Mary College in London. Her research is largely based around chemistry of lanthanide elements. Her teams have developed new lanthanide-based catalysts and, through collaboration with materials scientists at Liverpool, developed precursors for the growth of thin films of lanthanide (and other metal) oxides.
