The subject matter of this volume has its roots in the early days
of polymer chemistry when gun cotton and Parkesine were first
developed. Indeed, its roots can ultimately be traced into anti
quity, since, in commerce and daily life, man has always carried
out reactions on polymers, e. g. in primitive dyeing and tanning
operations. In more modern times Prof. Staudinger is commonly
acknowledged as the investigator most responsible for the renais
sance of interest in "polymer analogous" reactions. In recent years
it has become apparent that the "black art" of conducting chemical
reactions on macromolecules is an area which is amenable to basic
scientific investigation. Examples of important developments which
have come 'about, in part, as a result of this realization have
been the advances in molecular biology (which may be rightly
considered as the biochemistry of macromo lecules) and by such
milestone achievements as solid phase pep tide synthesis and
affinity chromatography. These few selected examples all have
macromolecules (biological and synthetiC) in common. The
stimulation to wide areas of scientific endeavor re sulting from
these developments would undoubtedly have occurred. sooner, and
certainly with much less difficulty, had the various investigators
been aware of the problems attending attempts at performing
reactions on polymers. The major purposes of this Advanced Studies
Institute were threefold: 1."
