Fundamental Concepts in Heterogeneous Catalysis

This book is based on a graduate course and suitable as a primerfor any newcomer to the field, this book is a detailed introductionto the experimental and computational methods that are used tostudy how solid surfaces act as catalysts.
Features include:
* First comprehensive description of modern theory ofheterogeneous catalysis
* Basis for understanding and designing experiments in the field
* Allows reader to understand catalyst design principles
* Introduction to important elements of energy transformationtechnology
* Test driven at Stanford University over several semesters
