[Quantitative X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis: Theory and Application].......2000-11-01
Very good. The book goes directly to the issue of what X-ray fluorescence is and its applications. Most books in the field explain lot of techniques and do not treat fluorescence properly. Just to remind, it is one of the most used X-ray techniques in the industry. It was about the time for someone to write a book only about fluorescence.

Book Description
Anatomy and physiology, a key part of the core curriculum in surgical technology, is the central basic science course around which the knowledge of surgical technology revolves. However, most conventional A&P books do not cover the surgical aspects of anatomy and physiology that the Core Curriculum for Surgical Technology requires. Surgical Anatomy and Physiology for the Surgical Technologist provides the basic concepts of A&P and applies them to practical surgery. Throughout the book, examples show how the anatomy and physiology of a particular body system or organ relates to a surgical procedure. This resource includes case studies, review questions, key terms, objectives for each chapter, and information boxes that tie specific anatomical elements to surgical practice. This book meets the requirements of the current edition of the Core Curriculum for Surgical Technology.
Book Description
This inclusive textbook consists of 16 chapters and 4 appendices, one of which is devoted to patents. The book is intended to introduce first-year students during the 2nd semester to various aspects of chemistry as applied to engineering. The subjects treated include energy in terms of fuels - sources (fossil, non-fossil, nuclear), alternatives, storage, and batteries/fuel cells. Other topics covered are corrosion, lubrication, explosives, water and its treatment, cement and concrete, ceramics and composites. Polymer chemistry is introduced for the discussions on adhesives and coatings. Each of the chapters and two of the appendices (Surface Chemistry and Viscosity) conclude with a list of books and articles for further reading as well as a set of exercises which include problems that extend the topics beyond the text.

Book Description
Spatial Patterns offers a study of nonlinear higher order model equations that are central to the description and analysis of spatio-temporal pattern formation in the natural sciences. Through a unique combination of results obtained by rigorous mathematical analysis and computational studies, the text exhibits the principal families of solutions, such as kinks, pulses and periodic solutions, and their dependence on critical eigenvalue parameters, and points to a rich structure, much of which still awaits exploration.
The exposition unfolds systematically, first focusing on a single equation to achieve optimal transparency, and then branching out to wider classes of equations. The presentation is based on results from real analysis and the theory of ordinary differential equations.
Key features:
* presentation of a new mathematical method specifically designed for the analysis of multi-bump solutions of reversible systems
* strong emphasis on the global structure of solution branches
* extensive numerical illustrations of complex solutions and their dependence on eigenvalue parameters
* application of the theory to well-known equations in mathematical physics and mechanics, such as the Swift--Hohenberg equation, the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the equation for the nonlinearly supported beam
* includes recent original results by the authors
* exercises scattered throughout the text to help illuminate the theory
* many research problems
The book is intended for mathematicians who wish to become acquainted with this new area of partial and ordinary differential equations, for mathematical physicists who wish to learn about the theory developed for a class of well-known higher order pattern-forming model equations, and for graduate students who are looking for an exciting and promising field of research.

Somewhat helpful, but..........2004-05-10
This book did help for some songs, especially in deciphering their sometimes indecipherable tunings, but there are too many inaccuracies throughout that keep this book from being credible. The first two books for the first two albums (Sevendust, and Home) were incredibly accurate and had awesome transcriptions. Animosity does not live up to the standard unfortunately. One interesting thing to note is that the "Sevendust" and "Home" books were published by Cherry Lane/Hal Leonard, and Animosity was suddenly published by Warner Bros. I don't know how much experience you all have with tab books, but I own quite a few, and I have to say regrettably that overall, MOST Warner Bros' books are mediocre at best, as far as accuracy in the transcriptions go. I say most, b/c not all their books are bad... some are just as good as CL/HL's books. Let's just say I'm hoping that the book for Sevendust's latest album Seasons, gets published by Cherry Lane!
Here's a breakdown by song to qualify my review:
T.O.A.B - Stated tuning is correct. The verses for this song are hard, if not impossible to transcribe, so I give him (Danny Begelman, the transcriber) credit there. Overall, this song is ok.
Praise - tuning is correct, but the transcription is missing a few obvious guitar parts.
Trust - Correct tuning. The Chorus is HORRIBLY transcribed for this one. Seems like he was taking a stab in the dark for it on this one.
Crucified - This one is a HUGE problem for me. There is so much missing in the Chorus on this one that I don't know where to start.
Xmas Day - Another debacle. To give credit where it's due, he did his best on this one, but the tuning of this song is so unorthodox that it's hard to transcribe. This transcription is probably the least accurate of the whole book, unfortunately.
Dead Set - This one is mostly accurate. He did a good job on this one.
Shine - Here he claims the song is "written in concert key." Does he even know what that means?!? The tuning here is simply WRONG. Since the tuning is screwed up, the entire transcription is too. This was a big disappointment, as this is probably my favorite song on the album.
Follow - This has ALOT going on in the chorus and I have to give Mr. Begelman credit for nearly nailing all the guitar parts, but there are still several inaccuracies here.
Damaged - Good transcription (not hard to pick up on your own though, either).
Live Again - Probably the most accurate transcription in the book.
Beautiful - Good job for the most part (thank god someone figured out the alternate tuning to prove that NATURAL HARMONICS are being played at the beginning, NOT high-positioned notes (sorry, I've just seen so many horiffic transcriptions of this online!!!), but the chorus is missing an essential guitar part.
Redefine - Good transcription.
Angel's Son - Good transcription (but he had help on this one!!! Sorry, not to sound negative here!)
That's it from me. I would recommend that if you want a general guideline for their songs, this book is an ok purchase. If you're looking for a portal into the amazing artistry and creativity of Sevendust through extremely accurate transcriptions, pass this one by.
Finally, whoever the reviewer from WA is... wow, I think the other guy already did justice by calling you an idiot.
Sevendust- Animosity.......2003-11-08
First off, to respond to the reader from WA, you can't write a bad review for a book because you're not familiar with their tunings, well you can but it makes you look like an idiot. The strings are tuned down for the low, crunchy sound; and they are not floppy if you strum them the right way. Also, if you're just starting out, eventhough i know all you fans love and wanna play like Sevendust, their solos and progression are just too advanced for beginners, so you do need some guitar knowledge. Otherwise, this guitar book is like any other: musical notes, tabs underneath, lyrics placed for you, and all the notations. Best tracks: Shine, X-Mas Day, and Angel's Son.
Drop... Tuning.......2003-01-31
I bought this book after buying the cd Animosity. I have liked Sevendust's music a lot, and I wanted to learn how to play it. First off, there are no chord examples in the book, so one must have an adequate knowledge of guitar chords, which I lack. But beyond that, the worst aspect of this book is the horrible tuning Sevendust uses. For example, in a song, the tuning is explained as "guitars tuned 2 steps down from drop D tuning" This way, the first and sixth strings are tuned down three whole steps. Tuning this way 1)is a pain ...2)makes the strings loose and floppy. Another bad point of this book is that the music is incomplete, and the transcription is not matching the recording when played in standard tuning... or something. Anyway, this book is not good for someone who just wants to play the music and not do all the work.

Penzler Pick, April 2001: David Lindsey can write horrific thrillers such as Mercy, which ranks up there with such serial killer novels as By Reason of Insanity by Shane Stevens and The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris. However, he is also the author of gentler tales--psychological suspense where the horror is subtle and comes from everyday and unexpected sources. Animosity belongs in the second category.
Ross Marteau is an American living in Paris, where he makes a decent living as a sculptor. After a particularly nasty breakup with his girlfriend of several years, he decides to return to his home in Texas and work from his studio in the art-friendly city of San Rafael. There he settles into a routine of working in the mornings on his next project and sharing conversation and a beer in the afternoons with his friend Amado Mateos. It is during one of these afternoon meetings that he notices a newcomer to the town.
Celeste Lacan is a beautiful woman who soon approaches Ross with a proposition. She would like to offer Ross a commission to sculpt her sister. Ross demurs--he already has a commission--but Celeste asks him to meet her sister before refusing, and when he does, he understands why Celeste is so insistent. Leda is not only the most beautiful woman Ross has ever seen, she is also the ugliest, and as a sculptor Ross knows that he will learn something new about beauty. As Ross begins working with Leda and meeting Celeste in the afternoons, he becomes obsessed with the two sisters. Life is about to become a living hell for Ross Marteau, and the ending of this story about art and love is breathtakingly horrifying. --Otto Penzler
Book Description
American sculptor Ross Marteau, renowned for his sensual depictions of the female form, is in San Rafael to start a new commission. When he finally meets his new model, he is stunnedshe is, at once, the most beautiful and the most grotesque woman he has ever seen. Fascinated by her misshapen body and the incredible torment in her eyes, he accepts the challenge. But soon he is pulled deeper into their desperate world, and when someone close to them is killed, Ross finds himself ensnared in a web of dark secrets and deadly maneuvers.
Download Description
Ross Marteau is the toast of the international art world for his sensual sculptures of rich and famous women. But when a long-term relationship breaks up badly, he retreats to his Texas hometown--only to have his newfound peace of mind permanently, and profoundly, shattered. One afternoon over lunch, Ross is approached by a woman to whom he feels an irresistible attraction. She introduces herself as Celeste Lacan and asks him to take on a new commission, a sculpture of her younger sister, Leda, promising that the job will present artistic challenges unlike any he has encountered before. Though reluctant, Ross can't help but be intrigued: by Celeste herself and by a photo of Leda's face, a portrait of incomparable beauty.
When he meets her, Ross is stunned to discover that Leda's body is as startlingly unique as her face is beautiful. Just as Celeste predicted, he becomes consumed with portraying the duality of her body . . . and, perhaps, her soul. At the same time, he becomes increasingly aware that the enigmatic depth he sees in Celeste is as mesmerizing as the fathomless torment he sees in Leda. Soon he's romantically involved with one sister; his relationship with the other is much harder to define. As Ross begins to sculpt, Leda vacillates between seductiveness and a mystifying aloofness, while Celeste begins to withdraw from his touch. Then a sudden, violent murder draws him deeper into their world. Too late, Ross will learn that his bond with the women is older, deeper, and more explosive than he could ever have imagined. With Animosity, the twin motifs of repulsion and obsession have never been more powerfully, or more compellingly, portrayed. Here author David Lindsey outdoes himself. You will not be able to guess the ending--nor will you ever forget it.
Customer Reviews:
beautiful writing, unfortunate story.......2006-05-03
David L. Lindsey's writing in this book is fabulous: peaceful, detailed, lyrical. I thoroughly enjoyed the pace and the way Lindsey puts words together to convey descriptions and ideas. The actual story, however, left me cold. Another reviewer mentioned that the protagonist is passive. Worse, he's gullible and apparently completely unable to think for himself. Other characters repeatedly lie to him and he believes every outrageous thing he's told with very little questioning. I'm not sorry I read the book, but I did leave it in a hotel room - it's not a book I'd add to my collection.
A Tale of a Stupid Man.......2005-08-15
I have enjoyed David Lindsey's novels, but this one was a big disappointment. I firmly believed it should be renamed "A Tale of a Stupid Man". I came away with the impression that the main character, Ross Marteau, thought more with his male sex organ than with his brain, and this led him to an inglorious (and probably well-deserved) end.
Let's fit as many male sexual fantasies into one tale as we can..........2005-07-31
The only person in the family that artist Ross Marteau doesn't shag in this tale is the mother.That's because she died before he got to her. I enjoyed this book. The writing is beautiful, but I was annoyed by how gullible Ross was over and over again.chocolatesleuth.com recommends this book though because it packs a lot of suspense.
Spellbinding and captivating!.......2005-07-09
Never have I been so transfixed by a story! Lindsey's protagonist, Ross Marteau, is an intense sculptor, whose relationships with women mirrored his passion. The consequences of the characters' animosity toward each other were astounding. They all became irrevokably dependent on each other as a web of deceit, malice, and evil unraveled all of their lives.
There was also an underlying theme to the story that I found intriguing. It highlighted the paradox in which beauty and ugliness can co-exist within the same person, both on a physical and an emotional level.
This book was seductive. I've never read anything like it.
this well written book is in the end only BLAH.......2005-06-05
I was very upset with Lindsey over this book. He managed to write with beautiful prose that created a very evocative sense of place. I felt like I was inside a classic MGM noir flick, watching characters delve towards the seedier side. But aside from the great writing, the plot here in the end became insulting and rather beside the point. Its as if Lindsey, with this book, were not writing a mystery or a thriller but putting up essences of emotions and places under the guise of a genre novel. So what you have here is something trapped in between a Jim Harrison tale that is biting in its glint edged fury and a David Lynch flick. And with Lynch, I am referring to his films as being nothing more than a grand pastiche of emotions or of moving paintings that really have no plot.
So this book does not work... try Jim Harrison for a tale that it seems Lindsey finds influence in. All of Harrison's books that I have picked up have been very good, so I don't think that you will be disappointed by any of them. Just skip this book, `Animosity,' and move on to something better.
