“All up, this is a great student text. It is well presented, well illustrated, well backed-up and user-friendly.”  (Chemistry in Australia, 1 July 2015)

“This is a very well written, enjoyable textbook of analytical chemistry. It may be used in different contexts: in a first course of analytical chemistry for chemists; for teaching equilibrium calculations in a general chemistry course; as an invaluable source of teaching ideas and resources for professors who use other textbooks; and, finally, as a reference work for practicing analytical chemists. Thus this book should certainly have a place on the bookshelf of any analyticalchemistry student, professor, or professional.”  (Anal Bioanal Chem, 21 June 2014)
