Chemical and physical analytical methods that are used to study art materials and archaeological objects have shown that such scientific investigation is an essential tool for acquiring information on the materials that make up these objects and for assessing their decay. Organic Mass Spectrometry in Art and Archaeology provides an overview of the analysis of art and archaeological materials, presenting the fundamental principles along with procedures and various mass spectrometric techniques used, including LC/MS, GC/MS, Tof-SIMS and compound-specific stable isotope analysis. Included within this text, from an international group of contributors, are: Case studies and examples illustrating how techniques can be used to reveal the history of objects, including how they were producedDidactic examples of the analytical results of real samplesA comprehensive and relevant bibliography Edited by world-wide respected specialists with extensive experience of the GC/MS analysis of art objects, this text will provide a useful source of information to scientists, researchers, students, archaeologists, art historians and museum conservators and anyone with an interest in art conservation and restoration.

\ From the Publisher"Nevertheless, this book provides a great overview both for students and beginning scholars in conservation science. It will function as a book of reference for experienced conservation scientists." (Anal Bioanal Chem, 2010)\ "Minor criticisms aside, this is a really useful sourcebook and should be consulted by everyone working in the field." (Chromatographia, November 2010)\ "Overall, I can recommend this book to those who wish to learn how organic mass spectrometric techniques can help unravel very old but also very interesting and relevant mysteries. In particular, I think all archaeometry researchers who are unfamiliar with these techniques will be pleasantly surprised by the current opportunities offered by MS (e.g., TOF-SIMS can provide direct imaging information from a solid sample), and they may discover new ways to enhance or complement their current research." (American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2011)\ "The book is an extensive source of information with numerous case studies and examples illustrating how MS can be used to reveal the history of objects". (Materials World, 1 October 2010)"\ Contributors discuss organic compounds and analytical techniques at an undergraduate level with multiple easy-toreference tables and charts. In addition, all chapters include extensive bibliographies for supplementary information at both introductory and advanced levels." (CHOICE, 2010)\ \ \
