Review: This book aims to bridge the gap between undergraduate and research level electrochemistry books, initiating inorganic chemistry into electrochemical investigations and introducing electrochemists to the many fields of inorganic chemistry. It starts by explaining the theory of electron transfer processes, how they can be studied by different electrochemical techniques, and the practical methods needed. It goes on to discuss the applications of the techniques in different areas of inorganic chemistry (organometallics, coordination compounds, bioinorganics/biomimetrics, materials science etc.). Topics covered include: metallocenes; organometallic and coordination complexes; metal complexes of redox active ligands; metal–carbonyl clusters; superconductors; molecular wires; and proteins.
