Photosynthesis Web Resources Other Useful Sites A. Books, Journals and MagazinesAlthough books about photosynthesis have not been placed online for economic reasons, there are Web sites that discuss them and commercial sites that sell them. Some of those sites will be listed here. Many of them will include reviews or summaries and list the table of contents – some may even provide a sample chapter. Many journals are now becoming available online, but usually only to university libraries that pay for the service. Many universities have discovered that it is cost effective (cheaper) to subscribe to the online journals on behalf of their students and faculty, than it is to try and subscribe to the hard copy versions of the journal which must be cataloged and archived by library personnel and is only available to one person at a time. Occasionally a hard copy of the journal is unavailable due to misfiling or because it has been sent out to be bound with other issues. The online version is always available and to as many persons as the library has paid for. Even if the journal issue is not available, the journal publisher’s Web site will often contain the table of contents, abstracts, instructions to authors, and sometimes sample issues or articles. Some authors have also maintained certain rights to the papers or chapters they write allowing them to include them on their personal Web pages. Checking an author’s Web site for publication lists will reveal online access if the article shows up as a link. More articles are becoming available as funding agencies insist on public access to research funded by taxpayer money. Books

McKibben, a well-known and popular environmental writer, writes from the point-of-view that climate change has already started and cannot be contained. The author does manage to maintain a positive outlook despite the problems caused by the projected climate change: http://us.macmillan.com/eaarth Eating the Sun: How Plants Power the Planet (2004), by Oliver Morton, published by Fourth State. It is a ‘must’ reading for all, even those only remotely interested in Photosynthesis. It is available from Amazon.com and other sources. His blog for the book is Heliophage and can be found at: http://heliophage.wordpress.com/ and his Twitter site is http://twitter.com/Eaterofsun.

It is a Wiley-Blackwell book: (https://www.blackwellpublishing.com/book.asp?ref=9780632043217&site=1). This is an excellent introduction to photosynthesis and is a great text for college-level courses. We recommend it to all our readers. Molecular Solar Fuels (RSC Energy and Environment Series) (2011), edited by Thomas J. Wydrzynski and Warwick Hillier, is found at <http://www.rsc.org/Shop/books/2011/9781849730341.asp>. The book points out that “World demand for energy is rapidly increasing and is projected to more than double by the year 2050. Finding sufficient supplies of clean energy for the future is one of the major scientific challenges of today”. This book deals very well with this topic.Molecular to Global Photosynthesis (2004), edited by Mary D. Archer and James Barber. See: http://www.icpress.co.uk/lifesci/p218.html. Photobiology: The Science of Light and Life, 2nd Edition, edited by Lars Olof Björn, has a clear and a thorough discussion on “Light,” its measurement and use in biology, including photosynthesis. See its Table of Contents at the following Website: http://www.springerlink.com/content/978-0-387-72654-0 Photosynthesis, 6th Edition (1999), by David O. Hall and Krishna K. Rao has gone through several editions and is still one of the best entry-level textbooks for the study of photosynthesis (http://www.cambridge.org/us/catalogue/catalogue.asp?isbn=9780521644976). Both the authors are now deceased. We hope that someone will take the challenge and produce an equally simple book. Photosynthesis, 3rd Edition, by David Lawlor, is a good overall book. A reviewer wrote, “This monograph gives a comprehensive overview of photosynthetic system.” The book is available from Amazon.com: (http://www.amazon.com/Photosynthesis-Dr-David-Lawlor/dp/1859961576). Photosynthesis: A Comprehensive Treatise (1998, edited by Agepati S. Raghavendra, is found at http://www.cambridge.org/us/catalogue/catalogue.asp?isbn=9780521570008 (Cambridge Press).

Primary Processes of Photosynthesis: Principles and Apparatus (2008), edited by Gernot Renger, is an excellent book that deals with the very first steps of photosynthesis; it is available at Amazon.com <http://www.amazon.com/Primary-Processes-Photosynthesis-Comprehensive-Photobiological/dp/0854043640>. See Govindjee (2010) Photosynthesis Research 103: 161-163, for a detailed review.Probing Photosynthesis: Mechanism, Regulation & Adaptation (2000), edited by Mohammad Yunus, Uday Pathre and Prasanna Mohanty (http://www.amazon.com/Probing-Photosynthesis-Mechanism-Regulation-Adaptation/dp/0748408215). See: http://bioenergy.asu.edu/photosyn/books/probebk.html Stress Biology of Cyanobacteria: Molecular Mechanisms to Cellular Processes (2013), edited by A.K. Srivastava, A.N. Rai and B.A. Neilan, has important photosynthesis content, and since cyanobacteria, like algae, are important for Bioenergy, we list this volume as an important addition to the field. See http://www.crcpress.com/product/isbn/9781466504783 Sustainable Energy – Without the Hot Air, by David J. C. MacKay, is a highly recommended book that covers sustainable energy in a straightforward, non-sensational manner (hence, without hot air); one section is titled, “Numbers, not adjectives,” to indicate that science is more important than political hype. It is available as a paperback book, a free downloadable PDF file, and even chapter-by-chapter on the Web. There are even Kindle and epub versions for digital readers. Access is at: http://www.withouthotair.com/ The Photosynthetic Membrane: Molecular Mechanisms and Biophysics of Light Harvesting (2012), by A. Ruban, Wiley-Blackwell, Chichester, is a welcome addition to the field of photosynthesis; http://queenmaryphotosynthesis.org/~ruban/news.htm
Fig. 19. Some of the great books written by David Walker, http://www.oxygraphics.co.uk/. Before he passed away, David Walker produced a wonderful set of books that approach photosynthesis from several different angles and which are written for several age groups. See Fig. 19. Most are available as free downloads (in accord with the principle of fair-use) from Hansatech Instruments and the International Society of Photosynthesis Research (ISPR). 1.
