It is illustrated with many examples of the importance of coordination chemistry in real life, and includes extensive references and a bibliography." "Introduction to Coordination Chemistry is a comprehensive and insightful discussion of one of the primary fields of study in Inorganic Chemistry for both undergraduate and non-specialist readers."--BOOK JACKET. 590 RCL. 650 0 Coordination compounds. 830 0 Inorganic chemistry (John Wiley & Sons)
