and have recently expanded to include proton conducting polymers, par-
ticularly high-temperature and methanol impermeable materials for the
proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and DMFC.

Richard Stone is a reader in engineering science in the department of
engineering science at Oxford. He was appointed to a lectureship in Oxford
in 1993, and for 11 years prior to that he was a lecturer/senior lecturer at
Brunel University. His main interest is combustion in spark ignition
engines, but he also has interests in fuel cells and the measurement of
laminar burning velocities in zero gravity, and he is undertaking a longi-
tudinal study of vehicle technology. This study commenced with 1970s
technology 20 years ago but has now been extended back to the 1920s, with
completion projected in 2020. He has written some 90 papers, mostly in
the area of engine combustion and instrumentation, and he is well known
for his book Introduction to Internal Combustion Engines, the third edition
of which was published in 1999.
Dr. David Thompsett is a senior principal scientist at the Johnson Mat-
they Technology Centre, near Reading in the U.K., where he has been
based since 1986. He currently leads a group responsible for the research
and development of catalyst and membrane components for low-tem-
perature fuel cells. He holds seven patents and has co-authored a number
of publications. He has worked extensively on the development of fuel
cell catalysts for phosphoric acid, proton exchange membrane, and direct
methanol fuel cells, together with the development of catalyst technology
for automotive and diesel emission control. He received his B.Sc. in
chemistry and Ph.D. in inorganic chemistry from the University of Bath
in the U.K.
