• Comprehensive and updated review and discussion of the field of hydrocarbon chemistry
• Includes literature coverage since the publication of the previous edition
• Expands or adds coverage of: carboxylation, sustainable hydrocarbons, extraterrestrial hydrocarbons
• Addresses a topic of special relevance in contemporary science, since hydrocarbons play a role as a possible replacement for coal, petroleum oil, and natural gas as well as their environmentally safe use
• Reviews of prior edition: “...literature coverage is comprehensive and ideal for quickly reviewing specific topics...of most value to industrial chemists...” (Angewandte Chemie) and “...useful for chemical engineers as well as engineers in the chemical and petrochemical industries.” (Petroleum Science and Technology)
