Abstract
The aim of this book is to introduce an exciting new capability for obtaining data from intact biological systems. It is based on the use in living systems (and related models such as isolated viable organs) of a technique, electron paramagnetic resonance (abbreviated as EPR) or electron spin resonance (ESR), that previously had been successfully used in pure chemical, biochemical and model biophysical systems.
