When a master teacher of chemistry, known for his lucid
writing, has free rein to present the area in which he is a
world-renowned research expert, the result is certain to be
engrossing. And when that area is one which uniquely illus-
trates the application of certain principles of chemistry, the
product is bound to be of utmost value and usefulness.
Professor Moeller’s appealing and representative vignette of
modern inorganic chemistry is all this and more. The fun
Dr. Moeller had in writing ‘The Chemistry of the Lanthan-
ides” will be mirrored by your enjoyment as you read it.
And in the reading you will acquire a clearer insight into
many basic relationships between atomic structure and
properties of the elements.
You will discover also that a thorough understanding of
the lanthanides provides the ideal approach to the fascinating
chemistry of the actinides. And, just as important, you will
find completely infectious the author’s spirit of research—
his enthusiasm for the challenge and lure of the unsolved:
problem and the unanswered question.
As editors we are proud to add Professor Moeller’s book, a
thoroughly readable blending of fact and principle, to
Setecrep Topics in Mopern Cuemistry. We are confident
that you will find it interesting, stimulating, and useful.
