It is immense happiness and deep gratitude that I present this edited book,
Spectral and Instrumental Methods in Inorganic Chemistry. The journey
toward completing this book has been both challenging and rewarding—
filled with learning, exploration, and the joy of discovery.
I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all those who have
supported and inspired me throughout this endeavor. I owe a special debt of
gratitude to my elder brother, Shri. Ramchandra Patil, a farmer whose
values of hard work and perseverance have always guided me, and to Shri.
Krishna Patil for his constant encouragement.
My heartfelt thanks go to my wife, Mrs. Madhavi Patil, for her unwavering
love, understanding, and patience, and to my children, Manushree and
Shambhuraje, for being a continuous source of joy and motivation.
I am also thankful to my student, Ms. Mamta Pimpale, for her valuable
assistance in proofreading the manuscript.
This book is dedicated to my beloved parents, whose blessings and
sacrifices have been the foundation of all my achievements.
