Principles of Polymerization

ASIN: 0080442862

Book Description

In the ten years since the first edition appeared the renaissance in Free Radical Polymerization has continued and gained momentum.
In this second revised edition, the authors critically evaluate the findings of the last decade, where necessary reinterpreting earlier work in the light of these ideas, and point to the areas where current and future research is being directed. The overall aim is to provide a framework for further extending our understanding of free radical polymerization and create a definable link between synthesis conditions and polymer structure and properties.

The authors have updated all chapters, and added many new references and two new chapters to reflect the significant advances made in radical polymerization. One new chapter has been devoted to
the area of living radical polymerization which is now responsible for a very substantial fraction of the papers in the field.

In addition to offering polymers with unique compositions and properties not achievable with other methodologies, living radical polymerization has also been combined with other
processes and mechanisms to give structures and architectures that were not previously thought possible.

The developments are seen to have great application particularly in the emerging areas of electronics, biotechnology and nanotechnology.

* A new chapter devoted to the growing field of living radical polymerization
* Seven chapters revised and updated with eight years of new research
* An excellent text suitable for graduates in polymer chemistry and a reference source for researchers and practitioners in radical polymerization

Book Description

The preparation and characterization of new materials with precisely controlled macromolecular dimensions, functionalities, and decomposition, as well as with well-defined topologies, is perhaps the main focus of contemporary polymer synthesis. The best control of molecular functions can be
achieved in a controlled/living polymerization -- a chain growth process without chain breaking reactions. Recently, controlled/living polymerizations have extended to radical systems which are not only commercially important, but also have the largest potential due to the availability of radically
polymerizable monomers, facile copolymerization and undemanding experimental conditions. Controlled Radical Polymerization will examine recent advances in mechanistic and synthetic aspects of controlled/living radical (co)polymerization systems. Not only will this book be focused on recent progress
in the dynamically developing field of controlled/living radical polymerization, but it will be a sequel to the very popular ACS Symposium Series 685, 768, and 854. The book will consist of >30 chapters separated into seven subsections: Fundamentals, Mechanism of ATRP, Mechanisms of SFRP and
Degenerative Transfer Processes, Controlled Architecture by CRP, Organic-inorganic Hybrids by CRP, Biomaterials by CRP and Industrial Applications. This book targets chemists and polymer scientists in academia and in industry.

Book Description

In the past 15 years, free-radical polymerization has undergone a dramatic revitalization. "Living polymerization," ATRP (atomic transfer radical polymerization) and RAFT (reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer) polymerization have come to dominate research in this area. Powerful experimental and analytical techniques are now used to probe the basic kinetics and mechanisms of the processes involved. High degrees of control over physical and chemical properties have lead to more efficient polymer production and new products. The state of the art in all these areas was presented and discussed at the IUPAC-sponsored "International Symposium on Free-Radical Polymerization: Kinetics and Mechanism" (SML '01) held in IL Ciocco, Italy, in June 2001. This volume of Macromolecular Symposia presents an excellent overview of modern research in free-radical polymerization.

Somewhat useful basic guide for GA but lacking in areas.......2007-10-10

I have read a ton of guides and information on Google Analytics, have taken a 6 week training course (provided by ROI Revolution who happen to be mentioned in this book as it would have it) and have used it for my companies sites as well as some of my clients. I had never read the first version of this book due to the not-so-flattering reviews of it so I decided to take a look at the latest version to see what it had to offer and if it had any useful content I had missed.

After reading it I would say that it is a useful basic guide for anyone getting started with Google Analytics as well as for those looking to brush up on their knowledge and to have a handy guide. There are also some solid, advanced topics they cover in the book such as regular expressions, advanced filters, as well as many side bars and notes during chapters. However,some of these advanced topics feel like they have been thrust upon the reader under the assumption that the reader already has some understanding of some of the advanced topics. I feel as there was not enough back-story to properly introduce some of their advanced topics and many times the location of these advanced topics messed with the flow of the book; they were introduced at times when the section of the book you were reading was rather basic.

The flow of the book (and the interesting tone at some points) seemed a bit off to me and one of the biggest things in Google Analytics was completely left out or barely even touched upon and that was setting up tracking for an E-Commerce site. There is a lot that goes into this (though it is not necessarily difficult but there are many different variables and codes you will need to know and utilize) and you truly need to assess your website and how it is structured before setting up the tracking code, the hidden form and some of the other utm functions (too little time and space to explain all that here). I was very surprised, and quite dissapointed actually, this was completely left out as it it really is a huge part of Google Analytics. They also did not mention or explain many of the other different variables and codes that allow you to more fully take advantage of Google Analytics and make it work just right for you and your business.

Not a bad basic guide to have handy for understanding the reports and some other things but really surprised at how much they left out for the sake of some of the really basic stuff they left in or espoused upon way too much. There are other resources you will need to truly grasp the whole setup process for more complex websites; this book makes it all seem so simple and basic as it doesn't explain that all too well.

Too basic.......2007-10-02

I found nothing particularly insightful in this book. Should be less "how to" and more "why".

Book Description

Dan Innes hasn't spoken with his daughter, Charlie, for two years. The first news he's had of her is a call from the British embassy in Thailand, informing him that his daughter is in a Chiang-Mai prison on charges of drug smuggling. Dan's shock and anger is rivaled only by a primal desire to rescue his estranged child -- and within days he journeys to the strange, mysterious land. He arrives at the prison -- questions and reprimands running through his head -- but his visit is inconclusive, and he soon finds himself following the faintest of trails in the lawless mountain region near the Myanmar border where opium grows in abundance.

Brilliant.......2004-06-15

I've not read anything else by Joyce, and was introduced to him recently by a friend. Smoking Poppy is part travel-book and part fiction as it examines the effects of drug tourism on one family. Vividly written, it made me want to go to Thailand. I've always wanted to try opium, and this book will put even the most feverent holder of that desire off with it's graphic portrails of the drug's effects.

Drugs, Thugs, Demons and Spirits.......2003-10-08

Danny Innes is trying to put together a life without his wife and kids. Sheila has left him for someone else. His son Phil has moved out and become a fundamentalist Christian. His daughter Charlie went away to university. Then his wife calls to tell him Charlie is in jail in Chiang Mai on drug smuggling charges. Accompanied by his pushy friend Mick and his reluctant son, he makes the trek to Thailand. It is a journey during which he will be dogged by drug dealers, thugs of the worst kind, sorcerers and spirits.

This is a tense mystery filled with peril and exotic locations and though our heroes are in almost constant danger, we are not bombarded with action, just for action's sake. Joyce mixes just the right amount of tension, insight and humor in this book you won't want to put down.

Reviewed by Stephanie Sane

Many rewards await the discerning reader.......2003-05-01

SMOKING POPPY is a daedal novel, and the Booklist précis is all the plot summary a reader requires to 'take a whiff'. What that review does not share is how Graham Joyce has managed to update a familiar tale (Conrad's HEART of DARKNESS) and, in the process, completely and ravishingly made it his own.

The plot, the graceful (writerly) style, the characters - each a 'person in full', although Dan Innes, the novel's core protagonist, really shines. Moreover, there is the novel's sub-text: Graham Joyce has important insights to share about our relationships with each other -- parent:child(ren), child:parent, friend:friend, lover:lover, etc. And that is not the end of the treasure trove Joyce has gifted us; many rewards await the discerning reader.

SMOKING POPPY has so much to say and says it so well. Recommended.

A thriller with heart.......2003-03-14

Dan Innes's little girl, Charlie, is now an adult with a mind of her own. And she's in a Thailand prison. Even though she never turns to her daddy for help anymore, when he hears she could get the death penalty it never occurs to him not to rush to her aid. Leaving behind his intellectual but empty life in London, Dan takes his pub buddy, Mick, and his fanatically Christian son, Phil, and sets out on the long journey to find his daughter. Instead, he finds the girl who stole her passport. Desperate now, he and his buddy and son hire guides to help them follow Charlie's trail in what turns out to be a grueling trek into the wilderness near Myanmar, where they encounter a wild, surreal world of spells and spirits and opium that will either split them apart forever ... or bring them back together.

In SMOKING POPPY, Graham Joyce has done an excellent job of handling both the psychological and spiritual issues mysteriously yet honestly. This book is a striking portrayal of a father's unconditional love for his children (and his children's unfailing desire to protect him). Nothing here is portrayed as right or wrong beyond the demands of loyalty. More than a thriller, more than a family novel, SMOKING POPPY seamlessly weaves the two genres together into a painful, amusing, and unnerving tale of love and violence in the exotically dangerous Asian jungle.

If you have trouble with slightly far-out spirituality, you may have trouble with this story, but if you're interested in a seriously disturbed literary trip, SMOKING POPPY will definitely deliver.

Joyce deserves to become better known.......2002-03-26

I am a big fan of some of Joyce's dark fantasy novels, in particular THE TOOTH FAIRY and REQUIEM. SMOKING POPPY is being marketed as Joyce's second "suspense" novel (after last year's appalling INDIGO). Joyce makes a welcome comeback here in a suspenseful yet moving tale about family ties, self-discovery and the lengths to which parents will go for their children. Although the fantastical element is not present to the same extent as in the novels mentioned above, it still makes a subtle appearance. Joyce deserves greater recognition.
