T etsuo N ozoe's “ A utograph B ooks by Chemists 1953–1994”: An Essay

Abstract

Note from the Editor: It is with special pleasure and a warm feeling of gratitude that I introduce Koji Nakanishi's essay which accompanies the publication of the fifth segment of the Tetsuo Nozoe Autograph Books. This project, “Bonding beyond Borders,” is a symbol of the ever‐increasing connectivity among the many members of the chemistry community. Both Nakanishi and Nozoe wrote autobiographies in the Profiles, Pathways and Dreams series that I edited from 1985 to 1997. I learned from their books how close they were as friends and as colleagues. My interest in publishing the Nozoe Autograph Books goes back many years but was stymied by the difficulty of finding a publisher. This interest was rekindled when, in 2006, Nakanishi told me about – and eventually lent me – a one volume specially printed commemorative collection of the Nozoe Autograph Books. At an ACS National meeting, I rushed to show this book to Eva Wille who could not put it down. This was the entry, the personal connection, that led to the publication of the Nozoe Autograph Books by Wiley‐VCH in The Chemical Record. This is another example of bonding, of enthusiasm and commitment, within our community. Jeffrey I. Seeman Guest Editor, University of Richmond Richmond, Virginia 23173, USA
