Horst Friebolin did his Ph.D. under the supervison of Prof. R. Mecke at the University of Freiburg, Germany, in 1963. Between 1963 and 1979 he worked at the Institute for electronic materials at the Fraunhofer Society and at the Institute for Macromolecular Chemistry at the University of Heidelberg. After two years in industry (BASF, Ludwigshafen, Germany) he finished 1971 his habilitation and joined in 1972 the Institute for Organic Chemistry at the University of Heidelberg, where he was appointed full Professor in 1974. His research fields are the isolation and characterization of natural products as well as enzyme-catalyzed reactions.

From reviews of previous editions: "This book is a pleasure to read and if it does not arouse the student's interest, then it is difficult to see what could. It is clearly written and illustrated ... good value and essential reading for anyone wanting to know more about NMR." Chemistry in Britain "Another paperback that I would advise students to buy ... [it] can be recommended for general purchase by all chemists." New Scientist "This book deserves much praise. If only all authors took as much trouble to produce a work of such clarity and relevance... The book forms an excellent bridge between the very simple texts on spectral interpretation and more specialist works with an emphasis on mathematical theory... This book is highly educational and will be of benefit to those who have to teach NMR and to students and scientists in academic and industrial laboratories... this work is right up to date with an inclusion of most widely used modern NMR methods with a style and content that is superb."

"... with it's fourth edition, Friebolin's NMR textbook remains the valuable companion and helpful guide as which it is well-known and appreciated among chemists and other scientists who seek a practical, comprehensive, but easy-to-read introduction into high-resolution NMR spectroscopy on organic molecules."

Polymer Research, Mainz, ChemPhysChem
 
"The book is also especially recommended to biochemists, medicinal chemists, and others with still different backgrounds and who maybe not look back on a comprehensive training in physical chemistry but nevertheless like to understand (!) NMR in addition to merely employing it as a 'black box technique' ... What more could be said on behalf of this nice volume that has not been said before - either here or in other comments on previous editions? The best testimony is doubtless given by the book itself: go and read and be
