While this is true of any chemical analysis, modern advances in trace-level analysis are critically dependent on developments in mass spectrometry. \u003cp\u003eThe approach adopted throughout the book is to emphasize the fundamentals underlying the scientific instruments and methodologies, illustrated by historically important developments and more recent innovations. However, discussions of the fundamentals are reinforced and related to the real-world by two chapters dedicated to method development and validation. Finally, how \"the fundamental things apply\" to real-world problems is illustrated in the final chapter devoted to representative examples from a wide range of application areas.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book does not cover important branches of mass spectrometry that provide accurate and precise quantitative measurements of \u003ci\u003erelative\u003c\/i\u003e concentrations, e.g. variations in isotopic ratios of an element by isotope ratio mass spectrometry and accelerator mass spectrometry.
