Once upon a time, in a quaint little village, there lived a witch named Elara. She was not like the scary, wicked witches that you read about in fairy tales. Instead, Elara was known for her magical green thumb and her extraordinary garden. Every morning, Elara would wake up with the sun and tend to her garden. Her garden was her pride and joy, filled with colorful flowers, exotic plants, and mystical herbs. It was a sight to behold, a true paradise on earth.
The literature of multidimensional NMR began with the publication of three papers in 1975, then nine in 1976 and fifteen in 1977, and now contains many tens of thousands of papers. Any attempt to survey the field must therefore necessarily be very selective, not to say partial. In assembling this handbook, the Editors have sought to provide both the new researcher and the established scientist with a solid foundation for the understanding of multidimensional NMR, a representative if inevitably limited survey of its applications, an authoritative account of classic techniques such as COSY, NOESY and TOSCY, and an account of the latest progress in the development of multidimensional techniques.
In the second part, the main families of multidimensional techniques, arranged in approximate order of increasing complexity, are described in detail, from simple J-resolved spectroscopy through to the powerful heteronuclear 3D and 4D methods that now dominate the study of structural biology in solution. In assembling this handbook, the Editors have sought to provide both the new researcher and the established scientist with a solid foundation for the understanding of multidimensional NMR, a representative if inevitably limited survey of its applications, an authoritative account of classic techniques such as COSY, NOESY and TOSCY, and an account of the latest progress in the development of multidimensional techniques.
It was a sight to behold, a true paradise on earth. People from far and wide would come to marvel at Elara's garden, and they often left with a handful of enchanted flowers or a potion crafted from her herbs. Elara had a special connection with her garden.

This handbook is structured in four parts. The first opens with an historical introduction to, and a brief account of, the practicalities and applications of multidimensional NMR methods, followed by a definitive survey of their conceptual basis and a series of articles setting out the generic principles of methods for acquiring and processing multidimensional NMR data. In the second part, the main families of multidimensional techniques, arranged in approximate order of increasing complexity, are described in detail, from simple J-resolved spectroscopy through to the powerful heteronuclear 3D and 4D methods that now dominate the study of structural biology in solution. The third part offers and illustrative selection from the very wide range of applications of multidimensional NMR methods, including some of the most recent developments in protein NMR. Finally, the fourth part introduces the idea of multidimensional spectra containing non-frequency dimensions, in which properties such as diffusion and relaxation are correlated.
About EMR Handbooks / eMagRes Handbooks
The Encyclopedia of Magnetic Resonance (up to 2012) and eMagRes (from 2013 onward) publish a wide range of online articles on all aspects of magnetic resonance in physics, chemistry, biology and medicine. The existence of this large number of articles, written by experts in various fields, is enabling the publication of a series of EMR Handbooks / eMagRes Handbooks on specific areas of NMR and MRI. The chapters of each of these handbooks will comprise a carefully chosen selection of articles from eMagRes. In consultation with the eMagRes Editorial Board, the EMR Handbooks / eMagRes Handbooks are coherently planned in advance by specially-selected Editors, and new articles are written (together with updates of some already existing articles) to give appropriate complete coverage. The handbooks are intended to be of value and interest to research students, postdoctoral fellows and other researchers learning about the scientific area in question and undertaking relevant experiments, whether in academia or industry.

She could communicate with the plants, and they seemed to respond to her touch and care. She knew exactly what each plant needed - whether it was more sunlight, a sprinkle of water, or a pinch of her magical fertilizer. With her nurturing hands, she transformed her garden into a haven of beauty and serenity. However, one day, a mischievous bunny sneaked into Elara's garden. It hopped around, nibbling on the leaves and flowers, causing chaos. Elara was furious. She chased the bunny but it was too quick for her. Determined to protect her precious garden, Elara came up with a plan. She brewed a special potion, known as the "Banish Bunny Brew." This powerful potion emitted a scent that repelled the bunny, ensuring it would never set foot in her garden again. Elara sprinkled the potion around the perimeter of her garden, creating a protective barrier. From that day forward, the bunny was nowhere to be seen, and Elara's garden flourished in peace. Her flowers bloomed brighter than ever, and her herbs grew even more potent. People continued to visit her garden, eager to witness its enchanting beauty. Elara's garden became a symbol of hope and magic in the village. It taught everyone the importance of nurturing and caring for nature. Through her love for her garden, Elara reminded the villagers of the wonders that could be brought forth with a little bit of patience and dedication. And so, Elara continued to tend to her garden, sharing its bounty with those who visited. Her green thumb and magical touch remained unmatched, making her garden a place of awe and wonder in the village for many years to come..
Reviews for "Crystals and Cacti: Exploring Magical Succulent Gardens"
1. Sally - 2 stars - I was really excited to read "A Witch in Her Garden" as I love witch-themed books, but unfortunately, this one fell short for me. The plot was predictable and lacked originality. The characters were one-dimensional, and I didn't feel any connection with them. The writing style was also quite basic, and I found myself skimming through pages just to finish it. Overall, I was disappointed and wouldn't recommend it.
2. John - 1 star - "A Witch in Her Garden" was a complete waste of time in my opinion. The story was slow-paced, and nothing interesting happened until the last few chapters. The protagonist was whiny and annoying, and I couldn't sympathize with her at all. Additionally, the book was filled with unnecessary and lengthy descriptions that added nothing to the plot. I found myself bored and frustrated throughout, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
3. Emma - 2 stars - I had high hopes for "A Witch in Her Garden," but it failed to meet my expectations. The writing felt amateurish, and there were numerous grammatical errors throughout the book. The dialogue was stiff and unrealistic, making it difficult to immerse myself in the story. The romance subplot was also forced and lacked chemistry. Overall, I found the book to be a disappointment, and I wouldn't recommend it to fellow readers.
4. Michael - 2 stars - I found "A Witch in Her Garden" to be quite dull and uneventful. The story lacked a strong conflict and suspense, making it hard to stay engaged. The pacing was slow, and the plot seemed to meander aimlessly. The characters were forgettable and lacked depth, making it difficult to care about their journey. While the idea behind the book had potential, the execution left much to be desired, and I wouldn't recommend it.
