BL Authors are well known in the field BL Unique approach discusses the complex features of chemical reactions in terms of simple unifying themes This book from the International Series of Monographs on Chemistry is a classic work in this important area of chemical kinetics, now available in paperback for the first time.The book introduces non-linear phenomena in chemical kinetics using simple model schemes. The models involve chemical
feedback, such as chain branching, autocatalysis, and self-heating. The emphasis throughout the text is on physical and pictorial representation, and on identifying those gross features which are essential.
Research workers in chemical kinetics and chemical engineering will find this book an essential reference.
Scientists in many fields are now expressing considerable interest in non-linearity and the ideas of oscillations and chaos. Chemical reactions provide perfect examples of these phenomena, as oscillating reactions, explosions, ignition, travelling waves, patterns, quasiperiodicity, and chaos are all features of chemical kinetics.
