Book Description: In 2001 Wyn Roberts celebrated both his 70th birthday and 50 years of working in surface science, to use the term 'surface science' in its broadest meaning. This book aims to mark the anniversary with a contribution of lasting value, something more than the usual festschrift issue of a relevant journal. The book is divided into three sections: Surface Science, Model Catalysts and Catalysis, topics in which Wyn has always had interests. The authors for each chapter were chosen from some of the many eminent scientists who have worked with Wyn in various ways and are all internationally acknowledged as leaders in their field. The authors have produced authoritative reviews of their own specialties which together result in a book with an unrivalled combination of breadth and depth exploring the most recent developments in surface chemistry and catalysis. In the past 20 years surface science has provided many revolutionary insights into catalysis to explain the complexities of the processes occurring on catalyst surfaces. There are many books on different aspects of both surface science and catalysis but no other book provides such an authoritative survey of the whole area. Exciting results are still emerging from the many research groups working in this fertile area and the book is an excellent stimulus to researchers at the start of the 21st century.
