Abstract
The history of the discovery and study of chemical oscillations and waves is presented from the very first accidental observations up to the systematic design of chemical oscillators. Special emphasis is devoted to the long-term debate over the possibility of pure chemical oscillations, i.e., concentration oscillations in homogeneous closed systems.Keywords
