"Congratulations on another volume in the
Advances in Photosynthesis and Respiration (AIPH) series. Govindjee
s mentor
Eugene Rabinowitch wrote the story of photosynthesis in the 1940s and 1950s. No
one could ever hope to do that again; the amount of information is just too
vast for any one person to ever hope to do a proper job of giving the real
state of knowledge. However, Govindjee has really
duplicated Rabinowitch
s
accomplishment in the only way it could be done nowadays, by enlisting editors
who are experts in areas of the field and having them in turn enlist expert
authors. When I look at the AIPH books on my shelf I am struck with how
effectively they collectively summarize the field. I am continually impressed
with how Govindjee has added new books to the series
that make sense and really provide the level of detail that is needed."
