New book series cements partnership with Japanese society
A new Royal Society of Chemistry book, Organometallic Chemistry, edited by Hiroshi Nakazawa, Professor at Osaka City University, and Julian Koe, Professor at International Christian University, Tokyo, launches a new series, building on the specialist expertise of the Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry (JSCC).
Other titles in the series will cover bioinorganic, photochemical, electrochemical, solution chemical, physico-chemical, and theoretical concepts alongside analytical and computational tools.
Hiroshi Kitagawa, President of the JSCC and also Professor at Kyoto University, said: "It is my great honour and pleasure to bring the important and high quality books of the Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry to the attention of students and researchers everywhere through this partnership with the Royal Society of Chemistry. I look forward to helping shape the selected books of coordination chemistry into one of the leading reference sources in the field.”
Emma Wilson, Royal Society of Chemistry Director of Publishing, said: “We are proud to be partnering with the Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry to bring these important and high quality books to a wider global audience”.
The series is published in collaboration with the JSCC and provides a comprehensive pedagogic treatment of the major coordination chemistry topics students will encounter during their undergraduate and graduate chemistry degrees. These are English translations of proven teaching tools written and delivered by the JSCC.
About the Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry
The Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry (JSCC) is the largest community in the coordination chemistry field among the world with members from academia, education, industry and other areas. Our prime mission is to create opportunities for information exchange and joint research among researchers for the development of science, technology, and industry related to coordination chemistry, both domestic and overseas, to support the smooth promotion of research by our members, to disseminate research results, and to foster and activate young research personnel. The JSCC supports coordination chemistry in teaching, research and application and contributes to the construction of a better human society through our activities.
