But the whole solvent agency of the digestive fluid enters into the category of that exceptional mode of action already familiar to us in chemistry as catalysis.
They have done a great deal with Catalysis in Germany with amazing commercial results, but the subject is one so recent that I had not previously gone thoroughly into it.’” Katherine paused in the reading, and looked across at her auditor, an expression almost of despair in her eloquent eyes.
Sometimes, indeed, there is in our social movements evidence of a singular sort of intellectual _catalysis;_ and a mute fact, so it _be_ a fact, and even under enforced continuance of muteness, through influence of temporary and extraneous circumstances, may yet, like the innocent _platinum_ in a mixture of certain gases, or the equally innocent _yeast-plant_ vegetating in the 'lump' of dough, take effect in a variety of ways, as if by mere presence.

I would like to start by emphasizing the importance of surfaces. It is at a surface where many of our most interesting and useful phenomena occur. We live for example on the surface of a planet. It is at a surface where the catalysis of chemical reactions occur. It is essentially at a surface of a plant that sunlight is converted to a sugar. In electronics, most if not all active circuit elements involve non-equilibrium phenomena occurring at surfaces. Much of biology is conc…
