Reviews

An updated version of the classical textbook (Powder Surface Area and Porosity, 3rd ed., 1991) by the first two authors the book now includes recent developments in the areas of density functional theory, molecular simulations, pore network theories, and it has an expanded section on heterogeneous catalysts..... An interesting aspect is the book's clear division between theoretical aspects (Part 1) and experimental aspects (Part 2) of the various techniques..... The book also demonstrates a good balance between how deep a theoretical concept is being discussed and how many real-world examples are presented. Summing up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through professionals; two-year technical program students. H. Giesche, Alfred University, in CHOICE, May 2005, Vol. 42 No.09

Summarizing, the book demonstrates a good balance between experimental and advanced theoretical concepts. Sufficient details and practical examples are given throughout the text to establish a better understanding of available methods and background for students and professionals alike, with many references for follow-up study. The book appears to be an extremely useful handbook that should provide the necessary tools for students and researchers, in both industry and academia, to tackle and solve problems associated with the state-of-the art characterization of porous solids and powders.
