The ultimate resource on inorganic chemistry – new and completely revised, 10 years after publication of the First Edition.
The first edition of the Encyclopedia of Inorganic Chemistry treated the elements of the periodic system in alphabetical order, with multiple entries for key elements. The articles from the First Edition were written more than 10 years ago and all areas of inorganic chemistry have seen such a vigorous development that it was necessary to update most articles and to add a considerable number of new articles. The result of this major work is the proud Encylopedia of Inorganic Chemistry Second Edition (EIC-2).
- New – now includes colour
- 30% growth on previous edition – now 6,640 pages, published in 10 volumes
EIC-2 continues to present articles in alphabetical order, but the content has been slightly reorganized to the following subject areas: Main Group Elements; Transition Metals and Coordination Chemistry; Organometallic Chemistry; Bioinorganic Chemistry; Solid State, Materials, Nanomaterials and Catalysis; and General Inorganic Chemistry, Theoretical and Computational Methods.
“This work is a revision of the 1994 edition, the only work of its kind…highly recommended.” (CHOICE, May 2006)
“Like its predecessor, this second edition assumes a crucial place on the chemistry reference shelf: it is more in-depth than a single-volume dictionary…more accessible than treatises…and more focused than a general chemistry encyclopedia…” (Library Journal, February 2006)
“This excellent, up-to-date, comprehensive, easy-to-use, definitive, and modestly priced reference work provides more information than is available in single-volume works…” (The Chemical Educator, January/February 2006)
“…excellent, up-to-date, easy-to-use, definitive, and modestly priced reference work…” (Chemical Educator, Vol 11, 2006)
“There is immense knowledge embodied in these volumes.” (Chemistry & Industry, June 2006)
R. Bruce King is Regents’ Professor Emeritus of Chemistry and a Professorial Fellow in the Center for Computational Chemistry at the University of Georgia. In recent years, after a 40-year career in synthetic inorganic and organometallic chemistry and related areas of molecular catalysis, he has increasingly become involved in various computational inorganic chemistry projects in collaboration with colleagues at the University of Georgia as well as universities in Romania and China. Dr. King has published more than 675 journal articles and edited or authored more than 20 books including more than 100 journal articles since 2000. He has won American Chemical Society Awards in Pure Chemistry and Inorganic Chemistry. He has organized international conferences in the areas of inorganic chemistry, boron chemistry, mathematical chemistry, and the Periodic Table, all of which resulted in edited books. He was the American Regional Editor of the Journal of Organometallic Chemistry for 17 years and served as Editor-in-Chief for the first two editions.
