Book’s topic Chromatography has become one of the most used tools in analytical chemistry today. Its suitability for the separation of components in complex mixtures has significantly contributed to the advancement of Science in so many research fields. With more than one century of evolution, lots of technical and methodological improvements, with several Nobel Prizes awarded as a result, have meant that the capabilities of chromatographic methods have increased dramatically. An important group of developments is based on the coupling of at least two separation processes to generate multidimensional approaches. In the particular case of gas chromatography (GC), the development of multidimensional procedures has increased the total peak capacity and resolving power attainable making possible the direct analysis of complex samples that seemed unattainable some decades ago. Although notable heart-cut GC applications have been presented, the application of comprehensive two-dimensional GC (GC × GC) is undoubtedly the major breakthrough in the field of multidimensional chromatography. Although most

important leaps forward in the evolution of GC × GC are related to developments on modulation instrumentation and procedures, improvements on column technology and data analysis have strongly contributed to establishing GC × GC as a mature technique in the field of chromatography. The book Basic multidimensional gas chromatography edited by Nicholas H. Snow provides a broad overview covering the fundamental principles involved in the development and application of multidimensional GC. Written by renowned experts in the field, important topics related to theoretical and practical aspects are presented described in detail. Contents The book is structured into 8 chapters for a total of 309 pages. Each particular chapter is centered on a specific part of a multidimensional procedure, with two additional introductory chapters revealing the historical background of GC × GC as well as the evolution from single-dimension to multidimensional GC. This way, the core of the book is composed of monographic chapters covering the most relevant features of column configuration and technology applied to multidimensional GC, modulators, inlets and samplings, detectors and basic data handling, advanced data handling applied to GC × GC, and a review of the most notable applications developed so far. Moreover, an appendix includes interesting information for further reading and resources. The aspec
