From the reviews of the second edition:
"The expansive range of topics in mass spectrometry is well surveyed in this large volume. Gross . manages extraordinary breadth and adequate depth, delving into classical and current topics in theory, instrumentation, and applications. This work serves as a useful reference for those in the field . but also functions effectively as a textbook, with 'Learning Objectives' for each chapter and several appendixes outlining step-by-step approaches for students to solve problems. . Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above." (E. J. Chang, Choice, Vol. 49 (3), November, 2011)
"Mass Spectrometry by Jürgen Gross is aimed at all mass spectrometrists and MS data users who practice their profession beyond routine and wish to better understand the basics and gimmicks of modern mass spectrometry. . gains a vivid impression of the innovative energy and creativity of the field. . a highly useful guide to the technical world of analytical mass spectrometry. It is unique, as it is a condensed source of numerous details that are rarely discussed at the expert level in one place." (Wolf Dieter Lehmann, Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, Vol. 401 (10), December, 2011)
"This is a serious and substantial textbook, which will be invaluable for established users of mass spectrometry wanting to revise their knowledge, as well as newcomers wishing to learn the subject from an historical and extremely thorough viewpoint. The text explains in detail, with excellent figures and photographs, the principles of mass spectrometry from ionisation techniques (starting with electron impact) through to instrumental designs (finishing with travelling wave stacked ring ion guides and orbitrap technologies)." (Alison Ashcroft, Chemistry World, December, 2011)
"While undergraduates might find the exemplary explanations of the many varieties of mass spectrometry helpful, this text is really aimed at researchers who wish to better understand their equipment or look into alternative approaches for analysing samples. It is a fantastic reference guide, with many schematics and photographs of equipment. It also contains useful guides on how to search reference libraries. The layout is perfectly functional, and a detailed table of contents and index make the text a delight to use." (Rebecca Ingle, The Times Higher Education, November, 2011)
