In recent years, a large number of research papers have been written on various aspects of pyrotechnics. However, these articles tend to only appear in specialized publications and symposia proceedings, which are often not readily available, even in large libraries. In the Pyrotechnic Literature Series, collections of research and technical articles are being republished to give greater access to the information. Books in this growing series will be:
- Collections of articles by a single author on various subjects.
