[and]... deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers." -Chemistry and Industry "Continues the valuable service that has been rendered by the Modern Aspects series." -Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry "Will definitely be of much use to researchers in the field of electrochemistry. . . . The editors of this well-produced volume deserve all appreciation for maintaining the excellent standard of the series." -Bulletin of Electrochemistry "Extremely well-referenced and very readable.... Maintains the overall high standards of the series." -Journal of the American Chemical Society UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-92263-8 ER -
