Dedicated to Mary,
for her continuous support and encouragement,
without whom this book would not have been written
Preface
The first edition of Principles was published in 1983, and
the second edition 16 years later in 1999. At that time I
thought the third edition would not be written until 2010 or
later. However, the technology of fluorescence has
advanced at an accelerating pace. Single-molecule detec-
tion and fluorescence-correlation spectroscopy are becom-
ing almost routine. New classes of probes have appeared,
such as the semiconductor nanoparticles, or QDots, and
genetically engineered green fluorescent probes. Addition-
ally, it is now becoming possible to control the excited
states of fluorophores, rather than relying only on sponta-
neous emission. These developments are changing the par-
adigm of fluorescence, from a reliance on organic fluo-
rophores, to the use of genetic engineering, nanotechnolo-
gy, and near-field optics.
I wish to express my appreciation and special thanks to
the individuals who have assisted me in the preparation of
the book. These include Ignacy Gryczynski for assistance
with the figures, Krystyna Gryczynski for drawing the fig-
ures, Joanna Malicka for proofreading the chapters, Kazik
Nowaczyk for the cover design and color digitizing of all
figures, Tim Oliver for typesetting, and the NIH for their
support of my laboratory. And finally, Mary, for her endless
hours of typing, correspondence and support.
