Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage of progress in the major areas of chemical research. Written by experts in their specialist fields the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, supplying regular critical in-depth accounts of progress in particular areas of chemistry. For over 80 years the Royal Society of Chemistry and its predecessor, the Chemical Society, have been publishing reports charting developments in chemistry, which originally took the form of Annual Reports. However, by 1967 the whole spectrum of chemistry could no longer be contained within one volume and the series Specialist Periodical Reports was born. The Annual Reports themselves still existed but were divided into two, and subsequently three, volumes covering Inorganic, Organic and Physical Chemistry. For more general coverage of the highlights in chemistry they remain a ''must''. Since that time the SPR series has altered according to the fluctuating degree of activity in various fields of chemistry. Some titles have remained unchanged, while others have altered their emphasis along with their titles; some have been combined under a new name whereas others have had to be discontinued. The current list of Specialist Periodical Reports can be seen on the inside flap of this volume.

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) Volume 17 highlights major developments in this area reported up to the end of 1999, with results being set into the context of earlier work and presented as a set of critical yet coherent overviews. The topics covered describe contrasting types of application, ranging from biological areas such as EPR and ENDOR studies of metalloproteins and evidence of free-radical reactions in biology and medically-related systems, to experimental developments and applications involving EPR imaging, the use of very high fields, and time-resolved methods. Critical reviews of applications involving bacterial photosynthesis, spin-labelling and spin-probes studies of self-assembled systems, and organometallic chemistry are also included. As EPR continues to find new applications in virtually all areas of modern science, including physics, chemistry, biology and materials science, this series caters not only for experts in the field, but also those wishing to gain a general overview of EPR applications in a given area. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage in major areas of chemical research. Compiled by teams of leading authorities in the relevant subject areas, the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, with regular, in-depth accounts of progress in particular fields of chemistry. Subject coverage within different volumes of a given title is similar and publication is on an annual or biennial basis.

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) Volume 18 highlights major developments in this area reported in 2001 and 2002, with results being set into the context of earlier work and presented as a set of critical yet coherent overviews. The topics covered describe contrasting types of application ranging from biological areas such as EPR studies of free-radical reactions in biology and medically-related systems to experimental developments and applications involving EPR imaging the use of very high fields and time-resolved methods. Critical and up-to-the-minute reviews of advances involving the design of spin-traps advances in spin-labelling paramagnetic centres on solid surfaces exchange-coupled oligomers metalloproteins and radicals in flavoenzymes are also included. As EPR continues to find new applications in virtually all areas of modern science including physics chemistry biology and materials science this series caters not only for experts in the field but also those wishing to gain a general overview of EPR applications in a given area.
