T h e aim of the series is to provide a critical and comprehensive review of the electrochemical behavior of the el ements and their compounds. T h e ele ments covered in each volume are grouped together according to the or ganizational scheme devised for the series. T h e elements reviewed in this volume by eight contributors include Al, In, Ir, Os, Pd, Pt, Rh, Ru, Se, Y, and lanthanides. Each of the nine chapters is organized into five sections of introduction and standard poten tials, voltammetric characteristics, ki netic parameters and double-layer properties, electrochemical studies, and applied electrochemistry. T h e book is a photo-offset copy of type written text. Applied Spectroscopy Reviews, Vol. 10. Edward G. Brame, Jr., Ed. xv + 305 pages. Marcel Dekker, Inc., 270 Madi son Ave., New York, N.Y. 10016. 1976. $32.50
Unlike its predecessors which re viewed primarily vibrational spectros copy, this volume devotes more atten tion to emission spectroscopy. In addi tion to emission spectroscopy there is coverage in the fields of photoelectron, nuclear magnetic resonance, mass, flu orescence, and ultraviolet spectrosco py. T h e first review is by R. T. Bailey and F. R. Cruickshank on applications of infrared fluorescence. T h e second review on biomedical applications of selected ion monitoring is written by workers from the School of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, F. C. Falkner, B. J. Sweetman, and J. T. Wat son. T h e next review by R. K. Harris and B. J. Kimber covers 29 Si N M R spectroscopy. T h e fourth review by G. K. Oertel and G. L. Epstein treats a broad area of study in the applications of spectroscopy to solar research. T h e next one by P. J. Slevin and W. W. Harrison on the hollow cathode dis charge as a spectrochemical emission source describes the use of this emis sion source as well as its fundamental principles of operation. Finally, the last review by G. K. Schweitzer on ele vated temperature vapor photoelec tron spectroscopy covers a field t h a t is undergoing a rapid rise in use. T h e book is reproduced from typewritten text.
