"This book attempts to recover this 'lost world' in the field of electrochemistry through the contributions of different authors who present to the reader a summary of the work of researchers in Eastern Europe in the century of the divided world. ... The book provides extensive and documented information on the development of electrochemistry in Eastern Europe during the twentieth century ... . this book built a new bridge-in space and time-between these two worlds."
