Macrocyclic Compounds in Analytical Chemistry

This book provides general synthetic information with regard to many types of macrocycles. However, in order to carry out a successful synthesis, it would be necessary to look up the appropriate article in a particular chemistry journal (this book clearly cites many references). In addition to synthetic information, there are many useful graphs and diagrams which relate the topic to analytical chemistry quite nicely. However, I feel as though 404 pages (not including the index) is a little short for discussing macrocycles in analytical chemistry. Several classes of molecules I was hoping to see weren't present. Nonetheless, I would recommend this book highly because it provides a good amount of information and provides the basis for finding even more information.
