It is now time for a comprehensive treatise to look at the whole
field of electrochemistry. The present treatise was conceived in
1974, and the earliest invitations to authors for contributions
were made in 1975. The completion of the early volumes has been
delayed by various factors. There has been no attempt to make each
article emphasize the most recent situation at the expense of an
overall statement of the modern view. This treatise is not a
collection of articles from Recent Advances in Electrochemistry or
Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry. It is an attempt at making a
mature statement about the present position in the vast area of
what is best looked at as a new interdisciplinary field. Texas A

brings together some dozen processes well known to the electro
chemist and treats them according to their various degrees of
importance. The production of hydrogen is one of the more important
processes, particularly with respect to the prospects of a hydrogen
economy. No one would doubt, however, that the most commercially
important electrochemical processes at the present time are the
production of aluminum and of chlorine. Each of these processes has
a separate chapter devoted to it."
