From reviews of previous volumes: This long-standing series continues its tradition of offering high quality reviews of established and emerging subject areas, together with the less common aspects of electrochemical science... [and]... deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers. Chemistry and Industry Extremely well-referenced and very readable.... Maintains the overall high standards of the series. Journal of the American Chemical Society
"Continues the valuable service thathas been rendered by the Modern Aspects series." Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry

Rezensionen

From the reviews:
"Electrochemical applications in medicine are growing rapidly, and are under recognised, so the appearance of this book is timely. ... It is likely to be of more interest to electrochemists than to a general medical audience, but will be important to medical specialists exploring electrochemical approaches to therapy and diagnosis. ... this book is a timely and valuable contribution to a growing field, and it is to hoped will gain the attention of both clinicians and electrochemists."
