Scientific paper

I will discuss how the mid and far-infrared fine structure lines of abundant atoms and ions can be used to trace the evolution of the interstellar medium in galaxies from earliest times to the present. These lines are of particular interest as they are both easily excited and suffer relatively little from extinction by dust. I plan a review of the current state of knowledge, followed by a discussion of the new science that will be enabled with the advent of SPICA and ALMA.
