Cations as very important reaction intermediates have fascinated chemists for a long time. Modern experimental, analytical, and computational methods now allow much more detailed insights into species which were previously thought as being only transient intermediates in synthesis. Kenneth K. Laali has compiled and edited an impressive number of different contributions from authors all over the world. Based on a recent symposium, the book serves as an update on current developments and results in an area that can be widely summarized as carbocation and onium chemistry.
