Other Front Matter
Capture non-standard prelim sections in a <front-matter-part>
element.
If a book has prelim material that does not fit in one of the named types then capture it
inside a <front-matter-part>
.
The content of the prelim material must be captured in a
<named-book-part-body>
element. The
<named-book-part-body>
element must contain a
<sec>
element.
Capture the title of the prelim material inside a <title>
element.

<bold>About the Editor</bold>
</p>
<p>Peter Main obtained his PhD from the University of Manchester and, after
post-docs in Manchester and Helsinki, he joined the University of
Nottingham as a Lecturer in Physics in 1979. Following promotions to
Reader and Professor, he eventually became Head of the School of Physics
and Astronomy. His principal research interests were in quantum fluids
and quantum transport in semiconductor and metallic heterostructures. He
was also involved in many teaching innovations.</p>
<p>In 2002, he left Nottingham to join the Institute of Physics as Director
of Education and Science. In this post, he had overall responsibility for
the Institute’s work in education at all age levels, research and
diversity. Among many projects, he worked closely with Ofqual and
awarding bodies on curriculum matters and with government to increase the
number of physics teachers. He also initiated several projects improving
the diversity of participation in physics.</p>
<p>In 2015, he joined King’s College to become Head of Physics; he retains
his interest in many projects in physics education and diversity.</p>

<bold>About the Series</bold>
</p>
<p>The IOP Series in Physics Education aims to provide comprehensive,
authoritative and innovative coverage for those that teach physics and
related subjects at universities and other higher and further education
institutions, and for those involved in physics education research.</p>
<p>The series supports evidence-informed professional practice and will
cover topics including: assessment methods; feedback; conceptual
understanding; problem solving; teaching methods; education technology;
pedagogical theory; curriculum design; student engagement;
misconceptions; employability; and social aspects of education.</p>
<p>Authors are encouraged to take advantage of electronic publication
through the use of colour, animations, video, data files and interactive
elements, all of which offer particular benefits in communicating
pedagogy.</p>
<p>

<p>We are currently commissioning for the series; if you are interested in
writing or editing a book please contact Caroline Mitchell at <ext-link ext-link-type="email" xlink:href="mailto:caroline.mitchell@ioppublishing.org" xlink:type="simple">caroline.mitchell@ioppublishing.org</ext-link>.</p>
