Critical coverage

As the series grows towards its full complement of titles, it is intended that Annual Reports on the Progress of Chemistry will continue its shift in emphasis towards provision for the general reader of critical coverage of significant advances in all the major areas of chemistry. 

Methoden der Organischen Chemie (Houben-Weyl). Stuttgart G. Thieme, (in German). Comprehensive and critical coverage of experimental procedure and appropriate theoretical background. 

Senior Reporters Prof. M. W. ROBERTS and Prof. J. M. THOMAS This wide-ranging annual review provides critical coverage of selected topics in each volume. 289pp 7.50 (still available Vol 1 7.00)... 

Table III summarizes results for the critical exponents and critical coverages, obtained by percolation theory analysis of the protonic conduction processes for lysozyme and purple membrane, and compares these values with theory.

Data for lysozyme are from Careri et al. (1988). Data for purple membrane are from Rupley et al. (1988). For summaries of theoretical analyses see Stauffer (1985), Zallen (1983), and Clerc et al. (1980). The critical exponent can be considered a truer test of the order of the percolation process than the fractional critical coverage.
