The title of this book suggests yet another general text on the principles and practice of HPLC-of which there are at least a dozen currently available. This is not the case, however. Instead, the editor has assembled a series of more specialized chapters addressed to the experienced chromatographer. That is, it is assumed that the reader has already been exposed to a more general and basic book on HPLC. Thus, there is no general discussion of the principles of separation, extracolumn effects, how an HPLC procedure is developed, column packings and techniques for reversed-phase HPLC, etc. The first five chapters of the book deal with equipment, quantitative analysis, preparative HPLC, column switching, and sample pretreatment. This paper of the book contains useful material not often seen in other books or review articles. The next two chapters deal with liquid-liquid and ion pair chromatography but ignore reversed-phase, normal-phase, and ion exchange chromatography. The final eight chapters deal with applications in different areas: inorganic samples, forensic chemistry, lipids, nucleic acid metabolites, drugs of pharmaceutical interest, amino acids, proteins, and coal and oil products. To summarize, this book is something between a basic text on HPLC and a review series such as Giddings's Advances in Chromatography. Whereas every practicing chromatographer should have a book of the first kind, libraries are the usual customers for the second kind. The author found this book useful in a variety of ways and so should many other reader.
