16、ies(it is one of only two colored metals,for example,as well as being the most noble and most malleable),but because of its history and its role in society,where it serves as a monetary asset,for adornment,as well as an industrial and decorative metal.Gold has a unique color and has been prized thro
17、ughout history for its beauty and value,but it also has an interesting science that we are just beginning to unravel and exploit.Traditional applica-tions have centered mainly on its metallic properties,and its chemistry has been rather overlooked,but that omission is being redressed.The surprising
18、discovery of golds catalytic properties in recent years and the development of its nanotechnology are leading to some exciting applications with enormous potential in industry and medicine.There have been many excellent books written on certain aspects of the science and technol-ogy of gold,most not
19、ably the book of the Hanau gold conference held in 1996(Gold:Progress in Chemistry,Biochemistry and Technology,edited by Hubert Schmidbaur and published in 1999),and there are several new books covering specific sectors of gold science,for example,on catalysis,chemistry,and nanotechnology.However,fo
20、r those seeking a broader reference source on gold and covering all technical sectors,the most appropriate book on gold,Gold Usage by Bill Rapson and Theo Groenewald,was published over 30 years ago in 1978.The world of gold has changed considerably since then,and we believe it is time for an updated
21、 book that reflects the more recent developments.The interest in the science,technology,and applications of gold has grown considerably over recent years,as evidenced by the huge increase in scientific publications in learned journals,the growth in attendance at the series of international gold conf
22、erences held since Hanau(it returned to Germany in 2009),and the expansion of readership of the sole journal dedicated to gold,Gold Bulletin.It is interesting to note that over$13 billion worth of gold was used in industrial(and medi-cal)applications in 2007,and consumption in this sector is predict
23、ed to grow significantly,much of it in new and green applications.Gold has a significant role to play in our quality of life during the twenty-first century.With the cooperation of some of the leading experts in their field,we have attempted to produce a book that is a worthy successor to Rapson and
24、 to provide an authoritive source of information.We have attempted to cover all the main scientific areas as well as the main areas of application.In some cases this has required some very detailed scientific chapters;other fields require less specific detail and have focused more on the practical a
25、pplication.In addition,to help readers place this sci-ence and technology in the context of a much wider gold market,a chapter on the supply,demand and pricing of gold is included.Taken together,our aim for the book is to appeal to those working in both academia and industry.Keen readers might also
