* Most current state-of-the-art overview of this important classof compounds, encompassing many new and emergingapplications
* The number of articles on organic azides continues to increasetremendously; on average, there are more than 1000 new publicationsa year
* Covers basic chemistry as well as state-of-the-art applicationsin life science and materials science
* World-ranked authors describe their own research in the widercontext of azide chemistry
* Includes a chapter on safe synthesis and handling (azides candecompose explosively)

"This book is timely and important - the first devoted entirely toazides to appear in 26 years. . . The editors are to becongratulated for attracting so many experts to produce anexcellent work in a timely fashion that should find a place in alllaboratories." (JACS, 2010)
