C-H Activation

From the reviews: "C-H Activation is a collection of 12 independent chapters, written by renowned authors. ... The descriptions of future perspectives, applications ... experimental procedures at the end of the chapters will be very valuable to readers, particularly students. ... I strongly recommend the book ... intellectually rewarding, and promising avenues of research within organic and organometallic chemistry. It is an essential reference source for the practitioners in the field for many years to come, and it should have a privileged spot on many bookshelves."
