This book provides knowledge of the basic theory, spectral analysis methods, chemometrics, instrumentation, and applications of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy—not as a handbook but rather as a sourcebook of NIR spectroscopy. Thus, some emphasis is placed on the description of basic knowledge that is important in learning and using NIR spectroscopy. The book also deals with applications for a variety of research fields that are very useful for a wide range of readers from graduate students to scientists and engineers in both academia and industry. For readers who are novices in NIR spectroscopy, this book provides a good introduction, and for those who already are familiar with the field it affords an excellent means of strengthening their knowledge about NIR spectroscopy and keeping abreast of recent developments.

Nakatsuji, Y. Ozaki, eds.: Frontiers of Quantum Chemistry, Springer (2017). He won the Tomas Hirschfeld Award (1998), EAS Award in Achievement in Near-Infrared Spectroscopy(2001), Gerald S. Birth Award (2006), Bomem-Michelson Award (2014). The Chemical Society of Japan Award (2017), The Medal with Purple Ribbon (2018), Pittsburgh Spectroscopy Award (2019). He has about 35 years of teaching experience.
Christian W. Huck received his Ph D from Innsbruck University in 1998 and received his habilitation in 2006. In 2014 he received a call to the University of Stuttgart. In 2016 he followed a call to the University of Innsbruck where he currently holds the position of a full professor for analytical chemistry. His research interest includes vibrational spectroscopy with main focus on NIR, Chemometrics and other analytical techniques and was the receiver of Tomas Hirschfeld award (THA) in 2018.
Satoru Tsuchikawa received his Ph D from Nagoya University in 1998. His research interest includes applications of NIR, IR, and Terahertz spectroscopy to agricultural and wood sciences. He published more than 120 peer reviewed papers andseveral books; for example, S. Tsuchikawa ed.: Useful and Advanced Information in the Field of Near Infrared Spectroscopy, Research Signpost (2004). D. D. Stokke, D. D., L. H. Groom eds.: Characterization of the Cellulosic Cell Wall, Blackwell Publishing (2006). Y. Ozaki, W. F. Mc Clure, and A. A. Christy: Near-Infrared Spectroscopy in Food Science and Technology, Wiley-Interscience, New York (2007). He won several awards, including the Buchi NIR Award (2003), the Perkin Elmer Award (2003), and Tomas Hirschfeld Award (2017), Gerald S. Birth Award (2018). He has about 25 years of teaching experience.
Søren Balling Engelsen received his Ph D in Molecular Modelling from The Technical University of Denmark back in 1992. He is currently professor of Biospectroscopy at University of Copenhagen. His research interest includes development and application of high-throughput quantitative spectroscopic methods (NIR, IR, Raman and NMR) for food and biological samplesin quality control, process analytics, foodomics and metabolomics. A key issue in this line of research is the development of multivariate chemometric methods (exploration, regression and classification) for optimal spectral information extraction. He has published more than 260 publications in peer reviewed scientific journals. He chaired the 18th International Conference on Near Infrared Spectroscopy, ICNIRS 2017, in Copenhagen. He received the Tomas Hirschfeld Award in 2015 and was knighted by the Queen of Denmark in 2018. He has about 25 years of teaching experience and has been main responsible for the supervision of more than 35 Ph D students.
