This book provides a timely review of how electrochemistry has been used in the elucidation of events taking place at the nano-scale, either in space or time. This has been achieved by creating a good, balanced mix between theory and applicationsEach chapter commences with a clear and brief introduction that helps the reader become familiar with the topic presented and with the aims pursued by the authors.The book makes very pleasant reading for research scientists in the area of electrochemistry and helps the reader to gain new knowledge, without going into too much in detail, on how electrochemistry could be used to investigate events taking place at the nano-scale.
