to the Fundamental and Applied Catalysis Series Catalysis is
important academically and industrially. It plays an essential role
in the manufacture of a wide range of products, from gasoline and
plastics to fertilizers and herbicides, which would otherwise be
unobtainable or prohibitively expensive. There are few chemical-or
oil-based material items in modem society that do not depend in
some way on a catalytic stage in their manufacture. Apart from manu
facturing processes, catalysis is finding other important and
ever-increasing uses; for example, successful applications of
catalysis in the control of pollution and its use in environmental
control are certain to increase in the future. The commercial
importance of catalysis and the diverse intellectual challenges of
catalytic phenomena have stimulated study by a broad spectrum of
scientists, including chemists, physicists, chemical engineers, and
material scientists. Increas ing research activity over the years
has brought deeper levels of understanding, and these have been
associated with a continually growing amount of published material.
As recently as sixty years ago, Rideal and Taylor could still treat
the subject comprehensively in a single volume, but by the 1950s
Emmett required six volumes, and no conventional multivolume text
could now cover the whole of catalysis in any depth. In view of
this situation, we felt there was a need for a collection of
monographs, each one of which would deal at an advanced level with
a selected topic, so as to build a catalysis reference library.
