Chemistry

Chemistry is the study of the substances of which matter is composed, the investigation of their properties and reactions, and the use of such reactions to form new substances. It is sometimes referred to as "the central science" because it connects physics with other natural sciences, and it has a wide range of applications in many industries, some of which play a key role in the global economy.

The distinguished authors of the books and textbooks listed under Research and Markets’ Chemistry category are the world's leading researchers. These top-quality publications are comprehensive and readily accessible, covering all the key areas in today’s research. When available, pre-publication titles are also included to give you the possibility to stay in touch with the latest developments in your research field.

The readership of this category includes both graduate and undergraduate students, as well as researchers. Show Less ... more
