Book Synopsis

In the decade since the introduction of the first commercial lithium-ion battery research and development on virtually every aspect of the chemistry and engineering of these systems has proceeded at unprecedented levels. This book is a snapshot of the state-of-the-art and where the work is going in the near future. The book is intended not only for researchers, but also for engineers and users of lithium-ion batteries which are found in virtually every type of portable electronic product.

Review Quotes

From the reviews:
"The book does serve as a guide for future development for most aspects of the chemistry lithium-ion system and is definitely a valuable snapshot of the state-of-the-by-no-means-finished-art of lithium-ion batteries."
(John B. Kerr, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Journal of the American Chemical Society, 125:12, 2003)
