Physical Chemistry textbook
Professor Komorowski is an editor and co-author of the Physical Chemistry textbook (2005-2010) – the comprehensive 4 volume set covering the broad area of contemporary physical chemistry (vol. 1), chemical physics (vol. 2), the physical chemistry calculus (vol. 3) and the physical chemistry laboratory (vol. 4). The book has been composed from parts based on the original text by K. Pigoń and Z. Ruziewicz; the separate book by A. Olszowski and J. Demichowicz-Pigoniowa has also been included. The old texts have been reviewed and refreshed, new parts have been written by ca 50 authors, to make this set the unique modern chemistry textbook ever created in Polish.
Debata o reformie akademickiej: artykuły & książki
Numerous publication focused on the current status of the Polish high education system and the ongoing university reforms have been published. Collection of the selected papers (2017) can be found in the volume: “Co dalej? Akademicka dysputa.” (What next? The academic debate.). The volume of less formal essays was published by the same editor (The hive. Academic pictures. Warsaw University Press, 2015).
