Bioluminescence in Progress /

The study of bioluminescence-visible light emitted by living organisms-is truly in progress, as these 35 papers contributed by 49 of the leading scientists active in this field attest. Not since E. Newton Harvey's Bioluminescence in 1952 has there appeared a more comprehensive and critical stud...
