Reviews

Polymer News, 12 October 1989

...here is a truly scholarly work which in many chapters transcends the usual review style and presents a critical survey of the topics under discussion... Invaluable for representative views on the present state of development of certain models and theories.

Society of Chemical Industry, December 1989

A remarkable achievement of farseeing organisation, authoritative content and elegant production. A milestone in the literature of polymer science, in terms of coverage, clarity and level of presentation.

Chemistry in Australia, March 1990

These seven volumes... Represent one of the most significant contributions to the reference literature on synthetic polymers. The index of 250 authors reads like a "Who's Who" of comtemporary polymer science... Every academic and industrial polymer group should have a set.

Chemistry in Britain, R.A. Pethrick, September 1993

...the chapters presented in this supplement are excellent and provide the reader with a balanced and up-to-date summary of a range of important topics in polymer science... This book maintains the standard set in the original seven volume work and is a valuable resource for those involved in teaching polymer science.
