The present volume of Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry is
composed of four chapters covering topics having relevance both in
corrosion science and materials engineering. All of the chapters
provide comprehensive coverage of recent advances in corrosion
science. The first chapter, by Maurice and Marcus, provides a
comprehensive review on the structural aspects and anti-corrosion
properties of passive films on metals and alloys. These authors
look at recent experimental data collected by in-situ microscopic
techniques coupled with electrochemical methods. A detailed
description is given of the nucleation and growth of 2-dimensional
passive films at earlier stages, their effect on the corrosion
properties of metal surfaces, and the nanostructures of-
dimensional passive films. On the basis of the experimental data
reviewed, the authors present a model for passivity breakdown and
pit initiation, which takes into account the preferential role of
grain boundaries. In Chapter 2, Takahashi and his co-workers give a
specialized account on the electrochemical and structural
properties of anodic oxide films formed on aluminum. In addition to
the electrochemical corrosion-related problems of anodic oxide
films, the chapter reviews state-of-the-art research of nano-/mic-
fabrications based on anodizing treatments combined with
chemical/mechanical processes such as laser irradiation, atomic
force micro-probe processing and thin film deposition techniques.
The understanding of hydrogen/lithium insertion phenomena is of
great importance for the development of the next generation of
functional electrochemical devices such as rechargeable batteries,
electrochromic devices, and fuel cells. This volume introduces a
variety of viable electrochemical methods to identify reaction
mechanisms and evaluate relevant kinetic properties of insertion
electrodes. The authors also outline various ways to analyze
anomalous behaviour of hydrogen/lithium transport through insertion
electrodes.

This book focuses on how current and prospective teachers worldwide
are prepared for the significant task of teaching geography, given
the important role of teachers. It eschews a traditional
career-centric framework (pre-service, in-service teaching) in
favor of a topical approach toward issues that all teachers face.
The book updates thinking on geography education subfields such as
GI education and fieldwork and traces important contemporary
discourses such as digitalization and sustainability. The book
further explains the broad variety of institutionalization of
geography teacher education in various political systems. In short,
this book collects strategies for geography teacher educators
worldwide to provide insight into the challenges, conditions, and
solutions present at the classroom and institutional level. As
such, this book is a must-have for teacher educators and geography
teachers worldwide.
