"Chemists, chemical engineers, and material scientists who want to know more about the chemistry and structural control of polymers would find extensive information in this book…" (MRS Bulletin, February 2006)

“…the most comprehensive treatment of this topic that I have encountered … an essential component of the book collection of any research group involved in polymer synthesis.” (Advanced Materials, 2005; Vol., 17; 16)

“…an excellent textbook for today’s students of polymer chemistry, chemical engineering and materials science, as well as a current reference for the researcher….” (Apollit, 2005)

"This is the fourth edition of what has not only become a classic textbook but is most useful as a reference book...the author...writes clear and precise sentences and makes what can be a dry subject interesting to read.” (E-STREAMS, October 2004)

"...an admirable text for teaching...and also serves as a valuable reference...a real investment and an important desk reference for polymer synthesis chemists." (Polymer News)
