Yet, even as the association theory was at the peak of its acceptance, the pieces to a generally accepted, high molecular weight model were being formed. (Unable to resist the temptation) the high molecular weight concept bounced back with the work of Carl Harries in 1904.

Jens Peder Dahl was closely associated with Carl s research group for many years, and his introductory chapter summarizes his scientific achievements and in particular his contributions to the inorganic renaissance which unfolded from 1950. Harry Gray recounts his very fmitful collaboration with Carl which resulted in a general molecular orbital description of the metal-oxo bond, and he and Jay Winkler review more recent experimental and spectroscopic data on metal-oxo complexes of the later transition metals. Colin Flint also provides a brief review of... 

Fig. 5 Carl Ballhausen visited the Beckman Institute at Caltech on several occasions. This photograph from one visit in the early 1990s shows (left to right) Gary Mines, Jay Winkler, Bo Malmstrom, Harry Gray, Carl Ballhausen, Danilo Casimiro, I-Jy Chang, Jorge Colon, Zhong-Xian Huang, and Deborah Wuttke...

His friend, Carl Harries, wrote an obituary of him but the catastrophes of the Great War of course tended to overshadow everything else, and the death of... 

Eduard Buchner s elder brother Hans was a rather impressive figure. Carl Harries, who was one of the guests at Eduard s wedding where he met Hans, described him as a very tall and fine-looking man with grave but friendly eyes, eminently eloquent and in every way very different from Eduard. Apparently, compared to his elder brother, Eduard seemed much more unassuming, not to say insignificant. It is easy to understand that he looked up to his brother and that Hans had a considerable influence over him. 

At the end of the 19th century, rubber, with gutta-percha, was used mainly as an electrical insulator on wires and cables. Demand was limited, and the supply of natural rubber at a reasonable price (about 1.00/lb in 1900) was ensured. Some work was done during these years on practical syntheses of isoprene and on the replacement of isoprene by its simpler homolog, butadiene, which had been known since 1863. However, advent of the automobile and accelerated use of electric power rapidly increased the demand for rubber, thus raising its price to about 3.00/lb in 1911. These circumstances focused new attention on the production of a synthetic rubber. S. B. Lebedev polymerized butadiene in 1910, and Carl Dietrich Harries, between 1900 and 1910 established qualitatively the structure of rubber as a 1,A-polyisoprene and synthesized larger quantities of rubberlike materials from isoprene and other dienes. 

At a special meeting of the German Chemical Society on June 23, 1890, Fischer reviewed comprehensively the status of carbohydrate researdi. It must have been an unusually attractive lecture. The normally critical Carl Harries wrote ... 

Among the many chemists at that University were Emil Fischer, Max Bergmann and Herman Leuchs, who were biopolymer science pioneers and Carl Harries, who was a pioneer elastomer scientist. 

Gibbs Medal (1973), American Institute of Chemist Pioneer Award (1973), Cresson Award (1973), Priestley Medal (1974), National Medal of Science (1971), ACS Polymer Division Award (1976), Perkin Award (1977) and the Carl-Dietrich-Harries Medal (1978). He was named a pioneer in polymer science by Polymer News (1979). 

Carl Harris at Kluwer Academic Publishers deserves special mention for his unstinted patience, co-operation and guidance. Special thanks to Lachmi Khemlani of University of California at Berkeley for the design of the cover. We also wish to thank Tina Jalalian for her utmost co-operation and the hard work in formatting, editing and preparation of the final manuscript.
