The classic text on the topic has now been updated and thoroughly modernized for more efficient classroom teaching and self-learning.

Thisbe Lindhorst is full professor at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Science of Christiana Albertina University of Kiel (Germany). She studied chemistry at the Universities of München and Münster, received her diploma in chemistry/biochemistry in 1988 and her Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry in 1991 at the University of Hamburg. After a postdoctoral stay at the University of British Columbia she became Private Docent in 1998 at the University of Hamburg. Since 2000 she holds a chair in Organic and Biological Chemistry in Kiel. Her scientific interests are in the field of synthetic organic chemistry and in biological chemistry, especially in glycochemistry and glycobiology. Current research is focussed on the study of glycosylated surfaces and control of cell adhesion. She is the author of over 150 publications and of the textbook "Essentials in Carbohydrate Chemistry and Biochemistry". She has been an elected member of the DFG Forschungsforum from 2008 to 2016 and served as elected president of the German Chemical Society (GDCh) in 2016-2017.
