Surface chemistry and catalysis

"In the past 20 years surface science has provided many revolutionary insights into catalysis to explain the complexities of the processes occurring on catalyst surfaces. There are many books on different aspects of both surface science and catalysis but no other book provides such an authoritative survey of the whole area. Exciting results are still emerging from the many research groups working in this fertile area and the book is an excellent stimulus to researchers at the start of the 21st century."--BOOK JACKET.
