Summary
Summary
This book will address the strong call for greater utilization of modern NMR in undergraduate education. There has yet been a book to note the numerous chemistry departments integrating NMR across their curricula. Researchers and educators are developing and implementing innovative experiments and pedagogies that are NMR-enabled. The proposed symposium series book will be the first publication to assemble and present these efforts, and will be a comprehensive resource for educators who wish to update their curricula with modern NMR experimentation. Significant progress has been made by educators in recent years to better incorporate modern NMR as an interdisciplinary tool for problem solving into first and second year courses such as general and organic chemistry; this book will report on and review many of these recent advances in first and second year chemistry. Significantly, the proposed book is explicitly designed as a comprehensive resource to educators. The book will help inform the evolution of chemistry curricula to better incorporate NMR as a tool for supporting interdisciplinary, contextual learning.

Choice Review
With the advancement of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy over the past 25 years, NMR has become the primary analytical tool in the chemical sciences. Chemical education has adapted by trying to teach more NMR in the undergraduate curriculum. This has been hindered at smaller institutions by the high cost of cryogenically cooled instruments, and thus greatly limited what could be done experimentally. Recently, FT-NMR was made accessible to these colleges by the introduction of low-field, permanent magnets in FT (Fourier transform) instruments. These are much less costly to buy and maintain than their superconducting counterparts. This ACS symposium series discusses ways in which NMR can be incorporated into the college chemistry curriculum. Overviews consider how to include teaching and using NMR throughout the curriculum to enhance the educational experience. There are also specific experiments to include in a given area of chemistry: bio-, physical, inorganic, and organic. There are even chapters on developing a nonmajors' course based on NMR and incorporating NMR in a high school chemistry class. A must read for those interested on including more NMR into their chemistry curricula. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Faculty. S. S. Mason Mount Union College
