Electron Transfer Reactions in Chemistry: Theory and Experiment (Nobel Lecture)

TL;DR: Since the late 1940s, the field of electron transfer processes has grown enormously, both in chemistry and biology as discussed by the authors, and the development of the field, experimentally and theoretically, as well as its relation to the study of other kinds of chemical reactions, presents an intriguing history, one in which many threads have been brought together.
