The editors of this book have attempted to make it more than a mere compilation of papers and discussions. Since it represents the first comprehensive collection of data in this field, they have endeavored to make it a model of accuracy as a reference source. All of the chapters were reviewed by more than one person closely associated with trace metál studies; pertment references were added to the discussions; and an appendix of formuláé of metal-binding compouncls was included.
