The second edition of this textbook offers extended information on imaging as well as
relaxation. A new chapter has been added to cover hyperpolarisation. As before Essential NMR
is a set of lecture notes for scientists and engineers who want to brush up on their knowledge
of NMR. It is also a compendium for graduate and postgraduate students of physics and chemistry
as well as for their teachers covering all fields of NMR i.e. NMR methodology and hardware
chemical analysis 2D-spectroscopy NMR imaging flow NMR and quality control NMR. The
material selected and organized for a one-semester course is presented in a concise and
informative way. Each page addresses a particular topic and holds an illustrative figure as
well as explanatory text providing the key information. The book is intended for beginning
