After publishing the first edition of the book, a new animated video-based course for studying the most common electrochemical techniques was developed. For an instructor who is interested in conducting these laboratories with real instrumentation and chemicals, Appendix C was prepared with detailed description how each of the laboratories can be organized, what data should be collected, and how the data should be treated and presented in a report.

The author recognized that additional examples of the conceptual and numerical problems should be provided to make this book useful not only for the senior undergraduates but also for graduates and professionals. These examples, placed at the end of each chapter, are designed to extend some important aspects of the text.
