Contributors to this volume focus on the fundamentals of the technique of analyzing material based on the atomic weight of the species, using the power and definition of lasers to enable measurement of smaller quantities and more finely localized particles. Each chapter deals with a particular application area and should be sufficient to form an entry point for the utilization of mass spectrometry by graduate students and researchers. The book provides the first full discussion of the new techniques of laser applications in the field.

"Lubman's book is an excellent compilation of articles covering the
diverse and exciting applications possible when lasers and mass
spectrometry are combined. Unlike many books of this type, it
conveys a sense of the development of the technique, its
variations, and its shortcomings . . . . . The article authors are
clearly well chosen from those active in the field. A useful and
interesting book for those who are knowledgeable in the field and
also those who
are interested in finding out about it." --Choice
"Lubman has produced a coherent collection of all of the aspects of
lasers in mass spectrometry, and the book would be suitable as a
textbook for an advanced class, given students with strong previous
backgrounds in both optical spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. I
can recommend Lasers and Mass Spectrometry for both individual and
library purchase." --Applied Spectroscopy
"Each chapter constitutes a "stand-along" review of each research
group's area of interest, including background on optical and mass
spectrometric techniques . . . . the chapters are well referenced
and an extensive index is included . . . . the book is a good
reference source for those working with lasers and MS and for those
interested in the advances in chemical analysis afforded by the
coupling of these techniques." --Analytical Chemistry
"Very good contributions from all the authors."--Journal of the
American Chemical Society
"A useful, practical, and interesting book, at a very good and
affordable price." --Microchemical Journal
"Extremely well written and edited. I would highly recommend this
book to anyone who is currently working in the field....or any
professor thinking of teaching a graduate level course in this
area....A fantastic book." --Microchemical Journal
