COMPUTER PROGRAMS FOR CHEMISTRY Volume 4 edited by DeLOS F. DeTAR, Florida State Univ. Compufer Programs for Chemistry provides chemists with list ings and descriptions of tested well-constructed FORTRAN programs—each of which performs a clearly defined calcula tion or other operation. The programs in Volume 4 will be of interest to many chemists-e.g., LSKIN2, CDORD, and EQCENT. In addition, there are programs that can be applied by any one working with computers—GENLSS, FRS3, and EDITQ and EDITID. This volume also includes a number of FORTRAN subroutines for conversion between binary coded numbers and their integer or real representation, as well as packing and unpacking routines. A t a p e c o p y of the program in Volume 4 contains over 15,000 card images of programs and test data. This tape copy can be obtained from the publisher. May 1972,

by J . P. BRENET and K. TRAORE, Electrochemical Laboratory, Louis Pasteur Univ., Strasbourg, France The existence of a transfer coefficient in electrochemical kinetics is no longer disputed, but its actual physical import has remained undefined. Though no claim is made to solve this problem in the present work, it is important in that it con centrates on this essential aspect and its relevance to presentday research. The scope is purposely limited to the kinetic aspects of electron transfer between the electrode and an ionized species, i.e., the electrode transfer layer interface as defined in the terminology proposed by the CITCE. CONTENTS.· The Fundamental Concepts of Electrochemistry. The Theories of Erdey-Gruz, Volmer and Audubert. The Gen eralized Form of Transfer Overtension in Electrochemical Kinetics. Attempts at a Theoretical Interpretation of the Transfer Coefficient. Marcus and Levitch's General Theory of Electron Transfer Reactions. 7 9 7 7 , 758 pp.,
COMPUTERS IN CHEMICAL & BIOCHEMICAL RESEARCH Volume 1 edited by CHARLES KLOPFENSTEIN, Dept. of Chemistry, Univ. of Oregon, and CHARLES WILKINS, Dept. of Chemistry, Univ. of Nebraska This new serial publication is devoted to the application of real-time computer techniques to data-handling problems of all types in the experimental sciences and education. Con tributors are recognized computer experts who describe in detail the work being done in both academic and industrial laboratories. Thus, research workers unfamiliar with these techniques will learn how to apply them in their own lab oratories by seeing how similar problems have already been solved in other laboratories.
