暫譯: 黏土-有機反應的化學

本書提供了有關粘土礦物與有機分子相互作用的廣泛文獻的全面且批判性的總結，包括反應機制和鍵合模式，以及它們的實際和工業應用。

Benny K.G. Theng is an honorary research associate with Manaaki Whenua-Landcare Research in Palmerston North, New Zealand (NZ). Before joining the research staff of MW-LC in 1992, he was a senior scientist with the NZ Soil Bureau, Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR). The focus of his distinguished research career has been on the behavior and reactivity of small and polymeric organic compounds at clay mineral surfaces. He was born in Indonesia but did all his undergraduate and postgraduate studies at the University of Adelaide, Australia, gaining a PhD degree in soil science. He was a research fellow, lecturer, mentor, and visiting scientist at several universities and research institutes in Australia, Belgium, Germany, Japan, France, Chile, and China. He also did some consulting work for clay-based companies in America and Europe. He is the recipient of a senior Humboldt fellowship (Germany), an Adam Hilger Prize (UK) for his first book, the ICI Prize (NZ) for chemical research, and the Bailey Distinguished Member Award for outstanding contributions to clay science from the Clay Minerals Society (USA). He is a Fellow of the NZ Institute of Chemistry, NZ Society of Soil Science, and the Royal Society of New Zealand. He likes reading historical books and thrillers, playing contract bridge, and listening to classical and chamber music.

Benny K.G. Theng 是紐西蘭帕默斯頓北的Manaaki Whenua-Landcare Research的榮譽研究助理。在1992年加入MW-LC的研究團隊之前，他曾擔任紐西蘭土壤局（Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, DSIR）的高級科學家。他卓越的研究生涯專注於小型和聚合有機化合物在粘土礦物表面的行為和反應性。他出生於印尼，但在澳大利亞阿德萊德大學完成了所有本科和研究生學業，並獲得土壤科學的博士學位。他曾在澳大利亞、比利時、德國、日本、法國、智利和中國的多所大學和研究機構擔任研究員、講師、導師和訪問科學家。他還為美國和歐洲的粘土相關公司提供了一些顧問服務。他是德國的高級洪堡獎學金獲得者、英國的亞當·希爾格獎（Adam Hilger Prize）獲得者（因其第一本書）、紐西蘭的ICI獎（化學研究）以及美國粘土礦物學會頒發的貝利傑出成員獎（Bailey Distinguished Member Award），以表彰他對粘土科學的傑出貢獻。他是紐西蘭化學學會、紐西蘭土壤科學學會和紐西蘭皇家學會的院士。他喜歡閱讀歷史書籍和驚悚小說，打合約橋，以及聆聽古典音樂和室內樂。
