Dr.Sci. Vladimir S. Bagotsky passed away on November 12, 2012 at the age of 92. Between 1949 and 1965 Vladimir Bagotsky worked at the All-Union Research Institute of Power Sources in Moscow. He was a head of laboratory which developed the batteries for spacecrafts (mostly high capacity silver-zinc and mercury-zinc). Starting from 1960 V. Bagotsky became a leader of the fuel cell development in the Soviet Union and from 1980 he supervised the Russian R&D related to lithium batteries. Since 1965 to 1985 before moving to the USA, Bagotsky worked at Institute of Electrochemistry of the Russian Academy of Sciences as a head of the power sources division. Basic aspects of electrochemical energy conversion addressed by Bagotsky and his co-workers in this Institute are related to electrocatalysis, electrode kinetics on porous electrodes, and electrochemical intercalation. During his scientific career V.S.Bagotsky has authored more than 400 papers in scientific journals (Electrochimica Acta, J.of Electroanalytical.Chemistry, J. of Power Sources, Russian Journal of Electrochemistry, etc.) and six monographs. The first was "Kinetics of Electrode Processes" (1952) published together with A.N.Frumkin, Z.A.Iofa and B.N.Kabanov in Russian and available in English as NBS translation. Already in XXI century, during his USA period, he published "Fundamentals of Electrochemistry" (Wiley, 2006) and the treatise "Fuel Cells: Problems and Solutions" (Wiley, 2009)". Up to his last days Professor Bagotsky has been working on present book.
