Yury A. Zolotov is the Head of the Department of Analytical Chemistry at Lomonosov Moscow State University, Russian Federation. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Analytical Chemistry and the author of several books in Russian, English, German, Japanese and Romanian.

"It provides an outstanding overview of the achievements in analytical science in Russia during the last century, when much of the development remained unrecognized outside the Soviet block. This book might be considered as a reference book for those interested in history of science, in particular analytical science of the twentieth century until now. ... the book is a unique resource to any scientist interested in the development of this field." (Reiner Salzer, Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, Vol. 411, 2019)
