Summary
Phosphorus compounds play a leading role in several major industries and an auxiliary role in many others. They are components of adhesives, cosmetics, detergents, foods, fertilizers, flame retardants, fluorescent lamps, matches, medicines, paints, pesticides, plastics, rust-proofing compositions, semiconductors, and many other industrial materials. This book summarizes the key features of phosphorus chemistry, biochemistry, and technology. Providing a comprehensive, well-organized, and effective resource for scientists and engineers working with phosphorus, it includes topics such as oxyphosphorus compounds, carbophosphorus compounds, azaphosphorus compounds, and metallophosphorus compounds.

Critics Review
Praise for the Fifth Edition The chemistry of phosphorus is so vast that it is extremely difficult to compress the important material into a single volume. Nonetheless Corbridge has managed to do this while at the same time making the material quite readable. The scope of the book is very broad. ranging from the extraction of phosphate rock to the role of palindromic sequences in DNA transcription, to metal complexes of P rings. The presentation includes a historical review which is useful and not belabored, but emphasizes fundamental synthetic transformations, structures, properties and applications. –Thomas B. Rauchfuss, in Journal of the American Chemical Society, 1996 I have to conclude that not only does the book achieve good coverage but it also is well indexed, something very difficult for any author to achieve. Definitely recommended. –Simon Cotton, in Polyhedron, 1996
