Publisher's Note: The Publisher has received information from members of the Romanian academic community questioning the role of Elena Ceausescu as the editor on this book and as lead author on the contributed chapters, claiming that she did not in fact edit the work and should not have been listed as an author of the contributed chapters. This work is translated into French from Noi Cercetäri in Domeniul Compusilor Macromoleculari published by Editura Academiei Republiçii Socialiste Romania, Bucharest, 1981. The Publisher is posting this note to make readers aware of the concern that has been raised.
