Exegi monumentum ael'e perennius. The monument I have built will
last longer than bronze. Horace My previous book, "Chitin," (1977)
was listed by the publisher, as a "key research book," among the
most requested books by libraries. It received favorable comments
from. each of the journals which reviewed it, Science, 198, 28 Oct.
1977, Physiological Entomology, 2(4), Dec. 1977, The Canadian
Institute of Food Science and Technology Journal, April 1978, The
Quarterly Review of Biology, 53:361, 1978, Oceanographic Abstracts,
15:182, 1979, Annales de Zoologie-Ecologie Animale, 11:127, 1979,
and Enzyme & Microbial Technology, 2, 1980. The variety of
these journals testifies to the interdisci plinary character of
chitin studies. "Chitin" has really been a landmark, to use the
definition given by Science, because it stimulated interest in the
less known polysaccharides and in modified chitins, besides chitin
itself, to the point that three International Conferences on Chitin
/ Chitosan were convened (Boston, U. S. A. 1977, Sapporo, Japan
1982 and Senigallia, Italy 1985). In convening the 3rd
International Conference on Chitin / Chitosan (1-4 April 1985), one
of the main objectives was the preparation of the present book.
While the proceedings of the previous two Conferences were very
valuable, they did not appear in any book catalogs and this
severely Ii mi ted their distribution."
