The breadth of scientific and technological interests in the general
topic of photochemistry is truly enormous and includes for example, such
diverse areas as microelectronics, atmospheric chemistry, organic
synthesis, non-conventional photoimaging, photosynthesis, solar energy
conversion, polymer technologies, and spectroscopy. Photochemistry
reviews photo-induced processes that have relevance to the above
wide-ranging academic and commercial disciplines, and interests in
chemistry, physics, biology and technology. In order to provide easy
access to this vast and varied literature, Photochemistry comprises
sections sub-divided by chromophore and reaction type, and also a
comprehensive section on polymer photochemistry.Throughout, emphasis is
placed on useful applications of photochemistry
