"This second edition is not merely an update of its predecessor; rather, the presentation here reaches an entirely new level. In terms of content, there is hardly any significant aspect of applied homogeneous catalysis that is not addressed. In a concise and precise manner, the individual chapters cover the spectrum from the historical beginnings to current processes, including their technical, economic and environmental challenges. (...) The uniqueness of this work, however, lies in its presentation, which is exceptional both didactically and aesthetically. (...) Numerous photographs of large-scale plants and smaller technical apparatus provide a striking impression of the significance, complexity and scale of plant engineering in the chemical industry."
(Prof. Armin Börner, Leibniz Institute for Catalysis, Rostock, Germany)
 
"Part II deserves special attention for its expert and authoritative discussion of the complex engineering issues often involved in conducting chemical reactions on a laboratory or industrial scale. This section is what makes the book unique, setting it apart from other publications on catalysis. (...) The book is highly reader-friendly: the text is clear, all terms are precisely defined, and the beautiful illustrations are well designed and helpful for understanding the content. Each chapter begins with a brief introduction to the topic and concludes with a key message. A series of specialized questions enables readers to test their knowledge, with the correct answers provided at the end."
(Prof. Dr. Anna M. Trzeciak, University of Wroclaw, Poland)
 
"Although a textbook can never be completely up-to-date, 'Applied Homogeneous Catalysis' stands out from its counterparts with the extensive coverage of the field, and the amount of recently achieved results. Several catalysts, reaction types and methods are treated which - beyond isolated examples - have entered the field of homogeneous catalysis only recently (metal-complex catalysts based on stable carbenes, reactions of CO2, mechanochemistry, flow reactions, switchable solvents, theoretical design of catalysts, the use of AI and Machine Learning, and many more)."
(Prof. em. Dr. Ferenc Joó, University of Debrecen, Hungary)
 
"The combination of scientific rigor, industrial relevance, and thoughtful pedagogy makes this volume an outstanding contribution to the literature. It is likely to become a standard reference for students of chemistry and chemical engineering and will provide an excellent introduction to homogeneous catalysis and sustainable chemistry. At the same time, its breadth of coverage and practical orientation ensure that it will remain a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners alike."
(Prof. Dr. Reinhard Schomäcker, TU Berlin, Germany)
 
"Hervorragendes Lehrbuch für meine Lehrveranstaltung, sehr gute Graphiken, sehr umfangreich."
(Prof. Dr. Matthias Tamm, TU Braunschweig, Germany)
