The renowned Oxford Chemistry Primers series, which provides focused introductions to a range of important topics in chemistry, has been refreshed and updated to suit the needs of today's students, lecturers, and postgraduate researchers. The rigorous, yet accessible, treatment of each subject area is ideal for those wanting a primer in a given topic to prepare them for more advanced study or research.
The learning features provided, including questions at the end of every chapter encourage active learning and promote understanding. Furthermore, frequent diagrams, margin notes, and glossary definitions all help to enhance a student's understanding of these essential areas of chemistry.
d-Block Chemistry provides a succinct introduction to the field of transition metal chemistry, assuming little prior knowledge, and giving students a clear conceptual overview of the wide variety of d-block metal complexes. The text is enhanced throughout by numerous bespoke line diagrams and three-dimensional structures, enabling the reader to visualise these important inorganic compounds.

MEDIA REVIEWS
The d-block elements and their complexes can bewilder undergraduates with their multiple oxidation states, geometries, valence electron counts and ligands. Mark Winter's d-block chemistry is a good and approachable introduction to put this bewilderment in context. * Simon Higgins, Chemistry World, September 2015 *
