Modern Batteries: An Introduction To Electrochemical Power Sources

Following a general theoretical introduction to electrochemical power cells (excluding fuel cells), all key battery types are discussed in terms of their chemistry, fabrication, characteristics and applications. All electrochemical power sources are covered including primary aqueous electrolyte cells, primary lithium cells, secondary lead-acid cells, secondary alkaline cells, rechargeable lithium batteries and high temperature cells.
