Since 1955, each volume has been eagerlyawaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. More than 250 volumes have been published (all of them still in print) and much of the material is relevant even today--truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences.

Key Features
* Strategies involved in studying adhesion
* Genetic manipulation of adhesions
* Adhesion and receptor isolation and characterization
* Distinguishes between adhesion and invasion
* Assays for adhesion
* Kinetic and epidemiological considerations of adhesion and infection

Book Description

This volume is devoted exclusively to the interfacial photoelectronic properties of the inorganic layered semiconductors investigated in solid state (Schottky and p-n) photovoltaic and photoelectrochemical (solid/electrolyte) cells. The results of extensive studies on the various interfacial and surface electronic characteristics, interfacial photoreactions and materials aspects of the layered semiconductors reported in the last fifteen years have been reviewed. The layered transition metal dichalcogenides have served as model compounds for the investigation of the details of photoelectrochemical processes and related studies involving surfaces. The layered semiconducting materials have been found to be promising solar cell materials. Significant energy conversion efficiencies have been realized in photoelectrochemical solar cells and in solid state photovoltaic cells. Novel studies including quantum size effects in layered semiconductors have been reported. UHV spectroscopic studies of the surfaces of important layered semiconductors have been given. Recent developments in the preparation of the layered materials have been summarized. New insights into the physical and chemical characteristics of this class of materials have been gained by the studies reported in this book.
Highlights include: -- Data on optical and electronic properties of layered semiconductors; -- Solid state and semiconductor/electrolyte junction characteristics; -- Photovoltaic and photoelectrochemical solar cells based on layered materials; -- UHV spectroscopic studies of surfaces of layered semiconductors; -- Quantum size effects in layered semiconductor colloids; -- Novel layered material preparation techniques.

This book is AMAZING.......2006-12-17

This book is the best thing you could buy for the IB Physics test. It has all the information you need for every single topic. And it goes in order. Nothing is left out. The text looks intimidating at first, but once you start reading and highlighting, it becomes so easy. I used this book to study for my IB physics SL test, and I got a 7. Oh yeah, and for one of my options, I studied a topic my teacher never taught in class. I learned it all myself from the book. So that just goes to show how good it is. I higly recommend this book to anyone that wants to score high on this test. I also bought the IB Biology book, and so far it's helping me a great deal just for tests and quizzes.

From an IB Diploma Graduate.......2006-12-14

I liked it because instead of several paragraphs of essay style writing contained in a regular textbook, this book gives a more concise visual approach and uses many diagrams and boxes with text inside to explain concepts. If you are SL or HL Physics, I strongly recomend this book.

Short and Helpful.......2005-10-09

This book has basically everything that will appear on the physics papers, either standard or higher level. Study it alongst with your textbook(s), solve plenty of physics problems and you will get at least a four over seven. Of course, if you are willing to work harder, I recommend that you get some more A-level physics books, and with those on your bookshelves you will most likely score a seven.

The IB physics bible.......2005-07-09

This book is probably the best resources you can get for IB physics. It is tailored to the IB syllabus and contains nothing more than what you need for the exam. This book is especially useful if your teacher does not teach, or somehow decides not to teach according to the syllabus. Also, it is a must for people who want to do well but are not willing to read through 500 pages of their textbook before the exam. For me, it certainly contributed to my 7 in physics HL, and I know it is probably go to do the same for you.

Not perfect, but best physics book available for the diploma.......2003-11-14

Ok...let me put this straight...this book is concise...it may not contain everything you learnt...but it does a good job in reviewing the materials for the diploma. It is a good resource if you know the stuff and is just looking for a book to help you revise. I finished my diploma, and got descent good grades by this book, it is concise, and that is what I like...instead of those wordy physics books that can teach you something in less than 1 page...but drags on to 3 with damned terrible confusing english. This is a good book. Buy it. You may even need it if you are studying a course in physics in university.

Book Description

Illustrated. Frances Hodgson Burnett's character little Lord Fauntleroy has been a hero now for children for over 100 years, and deservedly so. After all, he has won our hearts with his feisty courage and demeanor. His adventures are a treat and his personality enticing and unique.

Download Description

If them's his lordship's orders, mem, another voice answered, they'll have to be kep', I suppose. But, if you'll excuse the liberty, mem, as it's between ourselves, servant or no servant, all I have to say is, it's a cruel thing,--parting that poor, pretty, young widdered cre'tur' from her own flesh and blood, and him such a little beauty and a nobleman born.

Cheap print job.......2007-07-09

This is an example of the difficulties of shopping online.
I had read the book several years ago and wanted to give a volume as a gift. This printing is unacceptable - unpleasant font, cramped pages and flimsy binding. You will do better with the purchase of a used hardcover volume

A Gentle Story.......2007-06-05

I have always loved "A Little Princess" and "The Secret Garden," but I had not even heard of this book until recently. It is the simple and gentle story of how a little boy's innocence and belief that everyone is good transforms his miserly and cruel grandfather into an admirable man. If you enjoy Burnett's other stories, this one is not to be missed.

Right up there with "A Little Princess" and "The Secret Garden".......2007-03-21

When I was little, two of my favorite books were A Little Princess and The Secret Garden (HarperClassics) by Frances Hodgson Burnett. When I grew up, they were still favorites. So a year ago when I was buying them for my little cousin, and I noticed "Little Lord Fauntleroy", I was astounded. How did I miss such a gem?

The story of little Cedric who warms his old grandfather's heart is beautifully written and quite touching. There is also a lesson to be learned, as we watch what Cedric does with his newfound wealth. What would you do if you were suddenly gifted with such a fortune? This story is perfect for anyone who enjoyed "A Little Princess" or "The Secret Garden"!

A Little Disappointment.......2006-05-19

I wanted this for a long time, and finally received it yesterday from my Amazon Wishlist.

This is the first audio book that I actually find difficult to listen to. The sound quality of this CD is so poor and scratchy that I could be listening to an old radio broadcast. I do not feel as if I am sitting in a room listening to a wonderful story unfold...it's more like I'm listening to a conversation on a cell phone. It actually hurts my ears to listen to this recording.

Every time the reader says any word with the letter "s" the hiss goes right to your brain. I'm not kidding. I still have a headache.

A boy who changed his grandfather.......2005-10-14

I got to know this book "Little Lord Fauntleroy" through the President of SGI, Daisaku Ikeda. This book tells us how a pure, innocent and kind-hearted boy, Ceddie, changed his ill-tempered grandfather. Little Ceddie's mother played a very important role in bringing up his son into such a good character, who always look at people's good points. This good quality of Little Ceddie is what a society need.
