FOCUS
Surface analysis. David Hercules of the University of Pittsburgh recounts historical aspects of the field, describes the application of electron spectroscopy to quantitative surface analysis of heterogeneous catalysts, and discusses future challenges
Detectors for liquid chromatography. Edward Yeung and Robert Synovec of Iowa State University discuss recent developments in refractive index, absorption, photothermal, fluorescence, optical rotation, electrochemical, and MS detectors for LC
LC expert systems: Is the ultimate goal of programs currently under development to assist the expert or to replace the expert? • NMR imaging microscopy: Improved resolution leads to new chemical and biological applications

EDITORIAL
1987 ACS award winners include Gary Hieftje (Analytical Chemistry), Charles Lochmuller (Chromatography), Friedrich Helfferich (Separations), John Beynon (FieldFranklin), and Janet Osteryoung (Garvan). • Division announces undergrad awards. • Tswett chromatography awardees named
Critical reviews. Books on organic mass spectrometry and transient techniques in nuclear magnetic resonance of solids are reviewed by Henry Fales and Jerry Heeschen
Opportunities. Employment opportunities for analytical chemists are not matched by equivalent educational opportunities. Despite the real-world need for the specialty, fewer universities offer doctoral degrees in analytical chemistry than in other chemical specialties
