DESCRIPTION	Hardbound. Photochromism is simply defined as the light induced reversible change of colour. It is both of great basic interest and of high application potential and brings together scientists from a variety of domains in chemistry, physics and engineering, as stated in the foreword provided by Jean-Marie Lehn. The field has developed rapidly during the past decade as a result of attempts to improve the established materials and to discover new devices for applications. As photochromism bridges molecular, supramolecular and solid state chemistry, as well as organic, inorganic and physical chemistry, such a treatment requires a multidisciplinary approach and a broad presentation. The first edition (1990) provided an enormous amount of new concepts and data, such as the presentation of main families based on the pericyclic reaction mechanism, the review of new families, some bimolecular photocycloadditions and some promising systems.
