The book by
Jayashree A. Parikh includes the major areas of applied chemistry related to
corrosion, alloys, fuels, composite materials, and green chemistry. Applied
chemistry textbook stresses the practical application of chemical principles to
real-world situations. Some of the mechanisms of corrosion along with its
prevention, properties, and applications of various alloys, in addition to the
importance of sustainability practices in the study of chemistry are presented
here. It is meant for that reader who would care to learn about the chemical
properties and how this affects the modern materials and the environmental
practices; green chemistry emphasis would focus on finding environmentally
friendly alternatives, making this resource very relevant and timely in the
field.

Laboratory
manuals and the like generally contain little more than mere descriptions of
technical methods of analysis, and explanations of the underlying chemical
principles or of their applications are seldom attempted. It is evident that
such books can be of very little help to students. The mechanism of the
reactions involved in analytical methods is by no means so clear that
explanation is unnecessary, since a student usually begins technical analysis at
a comparatively early stage in his course. This book is a solution for all these
difficulties.The author, as lecturer in the Darmstadt Technical School, knows
from his long experience that it is just the emphasis laid upon the technical
application of an analysis which deepens the student's knowledge and
understanding of chemical processes.
