A Committee of the American Chemical Society recognized the value of comprehensive reviews and recommended the publication of two series of monographs. These works serve two distinct purposes. Firstly, they aim to present knowledge on specific topics in a readable format, making it accessible to those in different fields. Many chemists may not realize how their research connects with seemingly unrelated areas. These monographs will help bridge that gap and foster collaboration among researchers. Secondly, they seek to promote further research in the covered scientific branches by providing a thorough overview of existing progress and highlighting areas needing exploration. To support this goal, the monographs will include extensive references, allowing interested readers to delve deeper into the subject matter. In cases where the literature is extensive, a curated selection of key papers will be provided. This initiative marks a significant shift in the American Chemical Society's approach, aiming to establish a robust American chemical literature without prioritizing commercial interests. The success of this endeavor relies on the cooperation of professionals in the chemical and related industries, emphasizing the importance of collective engagement in this venture.
