| Handbook of Modern Sensors: Physics, Designs, and Applications
by Jacob Fraden (Author)
The Handbook's coverage of sensors is extensive, ranging from simple photodiodes to complex devices containing components in combination. It offers hard-to-find reference data on the properties of numerous materials and sensing elements and emphasizes devices that are less well-known, whose technology is still being refined, and whose use permits the measurement of variables that were previously inaccessible.

| Structure Determination of Organic Compounds: Tables of Spectral Data
by E. Pretsch (Author), P. Bühlmann (Author), C. Affolter (Author)
This volume presents in the form of texts, tables, charts and graphs a modern compilation of spectroscopic reference data for IR, UV/Vis, 1H- and 13C-NMR, MS (incl. prototype spectra of almost every important class of organic compounds and spectra of MALDI and FAB matrix materials) and is intended as a short textbook and a hands-on guide for interpreting experimental spectral data and elucidating the chemical structure of the respective compound behind it. The concise texts include special...

Product Description
The third edition of the established classic text reference, Principles of Fluorescence Spectroscopy, will enhance upon the earlier editions' successes. Organized as a textbook for the learning student or the researcher needing to acquire the core competencies, Principles of Fluorescence Spectroscopy, 3e will maintain the emphasis on basics, while updating the examples to include recent results from the literature. The third edition also includes new chapters on single molecule detection, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy, novel probes and radiative decay engineering. This full-color textbook features the following: - Problem sets following every chapter - Glossaries of commonly used acronyms and mathematical symbols - Appendices containing a list of recommended books which expand on various specialized topics - Sections describing advanced topics will indicate as such, to allow these sections to be skipped in an introductory course, allowing the text to be used for classes of different levels Principles of Fluorescence Spectroscopy, 3 rd edition, is an essential volume for students, researchers, and industry professionals in biophysics, biochemistry, biotechnology, bioengineering, biology and medicine. |

THE fluorescence textbook by Al Bacone (SoCal, USA)  5 Stars
August 31, 2009
Whether you like it or not (and I do, very much), every student of fluorescence spectroscopy or imaging should be familiar with Lakowicz. Not for beginners or for the faint of heart, this book combines detailed descriptions of the theory behind fluorescence and luminescence phenomena with a more than adequate set of examples and study problems. Keep this one on the shelf, especially if you occasionally need to brush up on time-resolved fluorescence techniques or energy transfer phenomena- I've used it as my standard reference over 10 years both as a student and as a professional practitioner of fluorescence spectroscopy, and I keep coming back to it.

Excellent buy by Michael A. Moxley (Lincoln, NE) 5 Stars
December 23, 2007
This book is an excellent buy for anyone who knows little to nothing about fluorescence spectroscopy and someone who wants a great reference on the subject. I definitely haven't read all of this book, however what I have read has been very good. What's nice is that everything is referenced like a research article would be, so if there's anything that's not explained to the reader's satisfaction then they have the option of going straight to the original research article. So far, I have been impressed with the additional reading sections in the back of the chapter. What's also nice is the CD-ROM that comes along with the book. It contains all 1300 plus figures on a PDF file. This is very nice for someone who needs to do a lot of presentations.
There's a lab at my university that specializes in fluorescence and this book has become the main reference for their lab. This means something considering how well recognized this professor is throughout the biophysical community.

Over Rated by Academic73 (USA)  2 Stars
December 13, 2007
This book is fine if you want to pay for a reprint of papers and other peoples theories in one book, the book is over rated, and compiled by an old out of date scientist who has lost his shelf life a decade ago. Everything in this book can be found free of charge in published papers.
Why is the author allowed to delete peoples reviews and comments when its not favourable ? I also found it interesting that most of these reviews where compiled by his long standing girl friend whom is his secretary, just look at the reviewers ! shame shame shame on you ! Is it any wonder why everyone who has the misfortune of working with this man hates the very sound of his name and leaves with a bitter taste in their mouth - well known in the community, for being a joke ! follow Wolfbeis, Gratton, Geddes who are far more on the cutting edge of science, not following other peoples work and then claiming it as their own.

The Luminescence Bible by Payam Minoofar (Los Angeles, CA) 5 Stars
March 08, 2007
What's more to say? This is the authoritative, the definitive volume for luminescence experiments from theory to all of the most useful applications. It is readable, dense, useful and indispensable if you do fluorescence, lifetime measurements, energy transfer studies, etc., etc.

| Handbook of Single Molecule Fluorescence Spectroscopy
by Christopher Gell (Author), David Brockwell (Author), Alastair Smith (Author)
Analytical measurements at the single molecule level under ambient conditions have become almost routine in the past few years. The application of this technology to fundamental studies of heterogeneity in biomolecular structure and dynamics, chemical and biological reaction kinetics and photophysics provides a rich playground for molecular scientists. The potential use of single molecule detection for nanotechnology and quantum information processing is a new and almost unexplored area. This...

| Single-Molecule Techniques: A Laboratory Manual
by Paul R. Selvin (Author), Taekjip Ha (Author)
As molecular and cellular biologists move toward nano techniques for performing experiments on single molecules rather than on populations of molecules, a comprehensive manual on how (and why) to carry out such experiments is needed. Single-Molecule Techniques: A Laboratory Manual fills this requirement--it is the first to take researchers who know nothing about single molecule analyses to the point where they can successfully design and execute appropriate experiments. Geared toward research...
