What They're Saying
Critics Review
An excellent textbook, covering the full range from fundamental aspects of atomic and molecular structure to structures and properties of bioinorganic macromolecules and novel nanomaterials. * Professor Aldrik Velders, Wageningen University *A highly informative and engaging introductory text; an excellent companion for all chemistry students wanting to better understand inorganic chemistry and its contemporary applications * Dr Julia Sarju, University of York *This is an excellent book that covers the foundational material of many aspects of inorganic chemistry. It also builds on those topics to develop more advanced themes. The book is easy to follow, has some brilliant figures and explanations, as well as incorporating real life examples and data sets to illustrate the points made * Dr Brian Chalmers, University of St Andrews. *
About The Author
Mark Weller
Mark Weller is an honorary professor of chemistry at Cardiff University. His research interests cover a wide range of synthetic and structural inorganic chemistry including photovoltaic compounds, zeolites, battery materials, and specialist pigments. Mark has taught both inorganic chemistry and physical chemistry methods at undergraduate and postgraduate levels for over 40 years, with his lectures covering topics across materials chemistry, the inorganicchemistry of the s- and f- block elements, and analytical methods applied to inorganic compounds. He is a co-author of Characterisation Methods in Inorganic Chemistry and an Primer (23) on InorganicMaterials Chemistry.
Jonathan Rourke is Reader in Chemistry at Cardiff University and Honorary Professor of Chemistry at the University of Warwick. He received his PhD at the University of Sheffield on organometallic polymers and liquid crystals, followed by postdoctoral work in Canada and back in Britain. His initial independent research career began at Bristol University and then at Warwick, before he moved to Cardiff. Over the years Dr Rourke has taught most aspects of inorganic chemistry,all the way from basic bonding, through symmetry analysis to advanced transition metal chemistry.
Fraser Armstrong is an Emeritus Research Fellow of St John’s College, University of Oxford. He was anAssociate Professor at the University of California, Irvine, before joining the Department of Chemistry at Oxford in 1993. His interests span the fields of renewable energy, hydrogen, enzymology, mechanistic biological inorganic chemistry, and electrocatalysis by enzymes. He has received numerous awards and honours, including the European Medal for Biological Inorganic Chemistry (1998), the Joseph Chatt Medal (2010), The Davy Medal of the Royal Society (2012), the Bailar Medal of theUniversity of Illinois (2015⁄16), the Glenn T. Seaborg Lectureship in Inorganic Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley (2021-22), and the Mok Hing-Yiu Distinguished Visiting Professorship in Chemistryat the University of Hong Kong, 2023-25. He was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of London (FRS) in 2008.
Simon Lancaster has taught Chemistry at the University of East Anglia since his appointment as a lecturer in 2000. He won a National Teaching Fellowship and an RSC Higher Education Teaching Award in 2013 for ‘blurring the boundaries between the internet and the lecture theatre’. Simon was promoted to a chair in Chemistry Education in 2014. He was selected as one of RSC’s 175 face ofdiversity in 2016 and championed inclusion and diversity as President of the Education Division Council from 2017-2020. He is a passionate advocate for evidence-based teaching innovation, and is indemand as a speaker and consultant well beyond the chemistry arena. He has shaped UEA’s Science teaching provision as Associate Dean for Learning and Teaching since 2022 and has led the adoption of tailored active blended learning approaches and extended reality technologies. He regards the lecture theatre as his laboratory and continues to teach over 100 contact hours a year.
Tina Overton was the Director of the Leeds Institute for Teaching Excellence at the University of Leeds, UK.
