✦ Synopsis

This short text (98 pages plus appendices and index} is by the Head Chemist of Atom& International, Canoga Park, California, In his preface the author says"This tionograph presents a number of pertinent techniques for the analysis of actini-CICS. . .", With this part of the sentence the reviewer agrees; but not with the rc-' mainder " . . . and provides sufficient information to guide the analyst in modifying procedures to meet special situations".

The book merely skims through a wide range of techniques, none of which can be covered thoroughly in the space available, and the result is that a feeling of dissatisfaction is left with the reader because hc is simply redirected to other referenccs. That feeling is not helped by occasional odd statements which indicate the author's unfamiliarity with some parts of his subject, e.g. in chapter VIII on analysis by emission spectroscopy, "Samples often need to be purified prior to analysis. Suitable techniques for purification include cavvier ~i~~~~~~~~~~, ion exchange and solvent extraction" (reviewer's italics) * This book can be recommended only as a brief introduction to the analytical chemistry of the actinides, not as an authoritative text.
