This new edition of a successful textbook has been completely revised and enlarged. In particular the chapters on measurement uncertainty, calibration and validation are practically all new. The authors provide an in-depth but easy to understand coverage of quality assurance for chemical measurements. This includes both internal as well as external quality assurance, necessary statistics as well as total quality management. All this is presented with more than 800 commented slides, which are also provided as downloadable Extra Material. The book will serve as an advanced textbook for analytical chemistry students and professionals in industry and service labs and as a reference text and source of course materials for lecturers.

«Luigi Dei takes a very personal approach to presenting the life and achievements of Maria Skłodowska-Curie, setting them in the broader context of the history of science and European culture between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. More specifically, he traces the links of the scientist, who twice won the Nobel Prize, with Poland (her homeland) and France (the country in which she lived, worked and made her outstanding scientific discoveries)» (Preface, Jan Piskurewicz).

In recognition of António Amorim da Costa's important contributions to history of science, the various chapters of this book by his friends and colleagues cover topics related to the prehistory of chemistry, alchemy, iatrochemistry, the phlogiston period, pneumatic chemistry and more recently the history of quantic chemistry and statistical mechanics, with particular emphasis upon the historical development of chemistry in Portugal and Brazil.ALT_QUEBRA_LINHAHowever, chemistry did not develop in isolation, and the contributions to this book also touch on neighbouring areas, such as electricity, medicine, optics and mineralogy. Neither do they deal exclusively with facts; people are also studied, such as the 18th century Luso-Brazilian engineer José Fernandes Pinto Alpoim, and the 19th century Portuguese chemist from the University of Coimbra, Thomé Rodrigues Sobral, and many more. It is hoped that these "pieces" of history of science will enrich our understanding of the field and acknowledge the contributions made by António Amorim da Costa to this area.
