Yoshihisa Inoue & V. Ramamurthy 
Supramolecular Photochemistry 
Controlling Photochemical Processes

This is the most updated, comprehensive collection of monographs on all aspects of photochemistry and photophysics related to natural and synthetic, inorganic, organic, and biological supramolecular systems. Supramolecular Photochemistry: Controlling Photochemical Processes addresses reactions in crystals, organized assemblies, monolayers, zeolites, clays, silica, micelles, polymers, dendrimers, organic hosts, supramolecular structures, organic glass, proteins and DNA, and applications of photosystems in confined media. This landmark publication describes the past, present, and future of this growing interdisciplinary area.

special journal issues, coauthor of a recently published textbook
Modern Molecular Photochemistry of Organic Molecules and Senior
Editor of Langmuir, he received his Ph D from the University of
Hawaii, Honolulu. Before joining the University of Miami in 2005,
he was employed at Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana,
Du Pont in Wilmington, Delaware, and the Indian Institute of Science
in Bangalore, India.

Yoshihisa Inoue is Professor of Chemistry, Osaka
University, Japan. The author of more than 400 scientific
papers/reviews, thirty-one book chapters, and the editor of two
books, Professor Inoue received his Ph D in chemistry from Osaka
University, Japan. He started his academic career as assistant
professor of chemistry at Himeji Institute of Technology and was
promoted to associate professor before returning to Osaka
University as full professor in 1994. He has worked as director of
the ERATO Photochirogenesis Project and of the ICORP Entropy
