Abstract
THE general discussions of the Faraday Society continue to fulfil the useful functions which give to that Society its unique position amongst bodies pursuing similar aims in various branches of science. The discussion on “Electrode Reaction and Equilibria “was held on November 26, 1923, in the very worst of conditions as regards weather, but was attended in person by Prof. Biilmann, of Copenhagen, and by Dr. Heyrovsky, of Prague, as well as by the most keenly interested workers in Great Britain. The permanent record of the discussion forms a volume of nearly 200 pages, and contains 18 original contributions on the two related subjects of reversible and of irreversible electrode reactions, which were the subject of consideration at the afternoon and evening meetings. It is impossible to summarise these papers in a brief note; but the usefulness of earlier issues of the series of reprinted general discussions is so well known, that no further commendation of the latest publication is needed to emphasise its value to all who are interested in the subject with which it deals.
