Title: A wealth of macrocyclic knowledge
Review: Gokel has compiled a superb monograph on the subject of macrocyclic polyethers. This book is a great collection of fundamental aspects of crown ethers and cryptands; from the discovery by C. Pedersen, to general synthesis, and concepts in complexation. A very comprehensive coverage of host/guest chemistry, however, prior knowledge and experience in organic or inorganic chemistry is necessary to fully appreciate this text.
