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)
