	Basic Gas Chromatography
	By: Harold M. McNair, James M. Miller ISBN: 0471172618 Publisher: Wiley-Interscience Release Date: 15 January, 1998 Bioscience book rank: 209976	An excellent primer on the subject. If you're thinking of bringing GC into your lab, or are just brushing up on the subject, this is the book for you. Some of the derivations focused on quantitative analysis are a bit pedantic and might not be applicable to the average user, but overall the book is a good balance between practice and theory. good information about all type of GC. Description and techniques instructions. It's a general book, so you'll not find deep information of a typical GC. A very good reference for those who just start to learn gas chromatography. The book was written in a format that make it easy to understand with more emphasis on the practical side rather than theoretical treatment for GC. After 40 years of intensive development, gas chromatography is still a very formidable technique.
	*Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry: An Introduction (Analytical Techniques in the Sciences (AnTs) )**
	By: Robert E. Ardrey ISBN: 0471498017 Publisher: Wiley Release Date: 11 April, 2003 Bioscience book rank: 485940	This book is very fundamental. For someone with little knowledge about HPLC-MS, this is the right book for him/her. IF you want to learn LC/MS, start with this book.
	Chromatography: Concepts and Contrasts
	By: James M. Miller ISBN: 0471472077 Publisher: Wiley-Interscience Release Date: 29 November, 2004 Bioscience book rank: 742406	The text is readable, but tends to be somewhat repetitive in parts. There seems to be some sections that could be covered more in depth, but for a general overview of chromatography, this books seems to be decent enough. In the graduate course I'm taking, this text book is supplemented with journal articles to fill in some of the missing depth. This structure seems to work well.
	Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, Third Edition (Chromatographic Science)

	Modern Practice of Gas Chromatography
	By: Robert L., PhD Grob, Eugene F., PhD Barry ISBN: 0471229830 Publisher: Wiley-Interscience Release Date: 11 June, 2004 Bioscience book rank: 215211	This book is an excelent reference source for all aspects of modern GC analysis. It covers topics in great depth but is still easy to read for less expirienced chromatographers. The important parameters are covered in depth (column, optimization, inlet systems) providing enough information to solve most problems. The end of the book has several chapters on application specific techniques such as pharmaceutical or petrochemical analysis. You will probably learn more from this book then you would taking a short course on the subject, and the cost is much less. I work in an analytical lab and usually borrow my texts from the Univ. of WA library in Tacoma rather than have my corporation buy them. This text is easy to read and comprehensive. I showed it to our senior scientist asking if our company should buy this text instead of borrowing it. He looked through it and said yes, that it's always good to have good references. One of the most useful reference book in gas chromatography. The book is written in a fashion that is easy to understand by novice and experienced chromatographers. Wonderful details about mechanism of separations, valuable information on flash vapourization process, and the utilities of the various detectors. All in all, a must have book for those who seriously like to be good in gas chromatography
