Description
Chemical Society Reviews publishes tutorial and critical reviews. The promotion of international and multidisciplinary awareness and co-operation is particularly encouraged. Articles of "social interest" (eg drugs in sport) are also published, giving an overview of topical areas.Tutorial reviews are written to be of relevance both to the general research chemist who is new to the field, as well as the expert, and are accessible to advanced undergraduates and beyond. They provide an essential introduction to the field and serve as a springboard to further reading. Authors are required to keep length and references to a minimum in order to give an enticing flavour of the topic rather than a comprehensive treatise. The implications of recent developments for the wider scientific community are emphasised. Critical reviews provide a deeper understanding of the topic in hand, yet retain their accessibility through an introduction written for the general reader. They give a critical discussion of the existing state of knowledge of the subject matter, and while not exhaustive in coverage give a balanced assessment of the current primary literature, normally concentrating on the previous 5-10 years. As for tutorial reviews, the implications of recent developments for the wider scientific community are emphasised.
