Let there be light! It’s a new beginning forThe Comprehensive Series in Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences。First started in 2001, this series has covered some fantastic topics from flavins to lasers. Brand new books have just been published, and the freshly appointed Series Editorial Board is looking for the next big topics.
How did the series emerge? 除了主要的研究和评论，photochemists，photobiologists和有抱负的学生需要更多。为了应对所识别的需要，涵盖完善和深入的新兴领域的全面信息来源，在2001年欧洲光生物学学会(ESP) and the英国皇家化学学会新利手机客户端(RSC) agreed to launch a series of books in photoscience. The series title leaves little untold about its purpose:Comprehensive Series in Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences。 通过从它推出之时一些文件浏览，我们遇到了指令，作者暗示手稿应当提交“用一组磁盘的同时（或CD-ROM）......”今天，软盘是没用的，光盘是一个老式技术，我们通过点击触摸屏设备提交我们的科学论文。如此多的改变，但书系列一直保持着较高的科学标准和最佳原有的特色，这要归功于致力于之前的系列编辑器（圣多纳 - 彼得·Haeder和已故朱利奥焦里）的愿景。 |

And what now?
很快，两个新卷可用。地表水光化学新利手机客户端, edited by Paola Calza and Davide Vione, is now available and it explores the latest research on the photochemical fate of organic pollutants in surface water.Singlet Oxygen, edited by Santi Nonell and Cristina Flors, comprises两卷that present the physical, chemical and biological properties of this reactive oxygen species and its increasingly important applications across chemical, environmental and biomedical areas. Look out for this book in early 2016.
目前，我们正在搜集文献，参加会议并讲话，以我们的同事决定哪些是已在过去几年显著发展，现在可以用新编辑的书籍涵盖领域做的主题。该系列将开放，并且将扩大到包括：其中，在深度报道需要定义的任何话题。
由于两个新的冠军即将公布，新系列编委会，和漂亮的新封面设计，它看起来像在一个令人兴奋的新的开始综合系列在光化学和光生物科学。新利手机客户端We do welcome feedback on books in the series and ideas for areas we should cover in future. To get in touch, please email us atbooks@rsc.org。
