Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy

The protean nature of the applications of NMR is regularly reflected in Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy. Volume 24 is no exception, and it is an ineluctable fact that all areas of science appear to benefit upon submission to the blandishments of NMR. The examples provided here encompass solid state NMR, solid state NMR imaging, NMR studies of interfaces, NMR investigations of cells and organisms, 199 Mercury NMR, and some applications of NMR to the area of coal science.
