HANDBOOK OF PORPHYRIN SCIENCEWith Applications to Chemistry, Physics, Materials Science, Engineering, Biology and Medicineedited by Karl M Kadish (University of Houston, USA), Kevin M Smith (Louisiana State University, USA) & Roger Guilard (Universitéde Bourgogne, France)

Porphyrins, phthalocyanines and their numerous analogs and derivatives are materials of tremendous importance in chemistry, materials science, physics, biology and medicine. They are the red color in blood (heme) and the green in leaves (chlorophyll); they are also excellent ligands that can coordinate with almost every metal in the Periodic Table. Grounded in natural systems, porphyrins are incredibly versatile and can be modified in many ways; each new modification yields derivatives, demonstrating new chemistry, physics and biology, with a vast array of medicinal and technical applications.

As porphyrins are currently employed as platforms for study of theoretical principles and applications in a wide variety of fields, the Handbook of Porphyrin Science represents a timely ongoing series dealing in detail with the synthesis, chemistry, physicochemical and medical properties and applications of polypyrrole macrocycles. Professors Karl Kadish, Kevin Smith and Roger Guilard are internationally recognized experts in the research field of porphyrins, each having his own separate area of expertise in the field. Between them, they have published over 1500 peer-reviewed papers and edited more than three dozen books on diverse topics of porphyrins and phthalocyanines. In assembling the new volumes of this unique handbook, they have selected and attracted the very best scientists in each sub-discipline as contributing authors.

This handbook will prove to be a modern authoritative treatise on the subject as it is a collection of up-to-date works by world-renowned experts in the field. Complete with hundreds of figures, tables and structural formulas, and thousands of literature citations, all researchers and graduate students in this field will find the Handbook of Porphyrin Science an essential, major reference source for many years to come.

Readership: Chemists, physicists, material scientists, polymer scientists, spectroscopists, electrochemists, electronics and photonics engineers, biochemists, biophysicists, medicinal chemists and clinicians.

Stories of Notable Chemists

Spinach on the CeilingThe Multifaceted Life of a Theoretical Chemistby Martin Karplus (Harvard University, USA& Université de Strasbourg, France)

This is an autobiographical telling of Karplus’ life story, and how it led him to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2013. The book captures pivotal moments in Martin’s life — from his escape to Switzerland in 1938 shortly after Hitler’s entrance into Austria; to memorable moments like when his parents gave him a microscope which opened his eyes to the wonders of science; to his education in New England and California; and his eventual scientific career which took him to England, Illinois, Columbia, Strasbourg, and Harvard. It relates how Martin’s optimistic outlook and belief in his vision made it possible for him to overcome setbacks in his life, and turn a subject of study his colleagues considered a waste of time into a central part of chemistry and structural biology.

Women in Their ElementSelected Women’s Contributions To The Periodic Systemedited by Annette Lykknes (Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway) & Brigitte Van Tiggelen (Science History Institute, USA)

This book offers an original viewpoint on the history of the Periodic Table: a collective volume with 38 short illustrated papers on women and their contribution to the building and the understanding of the Periodic Table and of the elements themselves.

Pioneering British Women ChemistsTheir Lives and Contributionsby Marelene Rayner-Canham & Geoff Rayner-Canham (Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada)

Since the 1880s, women chemists have studied academic chemistry and made interesting and significant contributions to their fields, yet they have been absent from the historical record. This book rectifies the gaps, providing a well-researched glimpse into the forgotten world of British women in chemistry from 1880 – 1949.
