Reviews from the First Edition
"This is a highly informative and very affordable book... Sjostrom
deals with an immense amount of highly condensed information in an
expert and authoritative manner... very well illustrated throughout
and this adds much to the ease of understanding of the basic
chemistry and applications of it in the cellulose industries."
--THE FORESTRY CHRONICLE
"Professor Sjostrom has been very successful in bringing all these
diverse aspects of wood together in a very readable book." --WOOD
SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
"I strongly recommend it as a textbook for both teachers and
students. In fact I strongly recommend it for all those interested
in wood chemistry." --FOREST PRODUCTS JOURNAL
