This volume represents one of the two edited by inviting a selection of young researchers participating to the European Young Chemist
Award 2010. The other volume concerns the area of Nanotechnology/Material Science and is titled: Molecules at Work.
This book contains the contributions of selected young chemists from the field of synthetic chemistry. The contributions are grouped
under the three following umbrella topics:

Synthetic Methods
Catalysis
Combinatorial and Chemical Biology

This volume is an indispensable read for all organic and inorganic chemists, biochemists, chemists working with/on organometallics,
and Ph.D. students in chemistry interested in seeing what tomorrow's chemistry will look like.
