This book is one of the first and most comprehensive books on the method of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy of transition metals and the theoretical frameworks to describe the spectra. I was first introduced to this book during my work towards my Ph.D. continued to use it as a postdoc, and still use it frequently. EPR spectroscopy is one of the key methods in the area of bioinorganic chemistry, and the physical concepts developed by Abragam and Bleaney in the 1960s provide the basis for obtaining detailed insight into complex biological questions.
