Reviews / Votes
" approximately 4600 catalytic or catalysis related terms are defined by 190 authors and coauthors who are all experts in their respective areas." (Journal of the American Chemical Society, June 9, 2004) "Surprisingly comprehensive, this 824 page work is essentially a dictionary not an encyclopedia giving advanced discussion of terms drawn from all aspects of catalysis. (Choice, June 2004, Vol. 41 No. 10) "The content is well written, suitable for both undergraduates and researchers. (E Streams, Vol. 7, No. 5) "Mit Catalysis from A to Z wird dem Katalytiker ein herausragendes Lexikon an die Hand gegeben." (Chemie Online)More details
