This title covers a wide range of topics including: molecular conductors and superconductors; design and synthesis of functional molecular materials; organic/inorganic hybrids and photo-induced phenomena.

This volume contains the proceedings of the first ISSP International Symposium on the Physics and Chemistry of Organic Superconductors, which was held at the Komaba Eminence Hotel in Tokyo, August 28-30, 1989. This symposium was attended by 205 scientists from 12 countries. In total 106 papers were presented: 61 as posters, and 39 original papers and 6 review papers in oral sessions. Of these, 102 papers are included in these proceedings. These contributions cover the interdisciplinary field of physics and chemistry of organic superconductors with particular emphasis on the following subjects...
