Interactive CD-ROM to accompany Microbiology: A Human Perspective

Book Description

The problem of quark confinement is one of the classic unsolved problems of particle physics and is fundamental to our understanding of the physics of the strong interaction and the behaviour of non-Abelian gauge theories in general. The confinement problem is also are area in which concepts from topology and techniques of computational physics both find important applications. This volume contains a snapshot of current research in this field as of January 2002. Particular emphasis is placed on the role of topological field configurations such as centre vortices and monopoles in proposed confinement mechanisms. Other topics covered include colour superconductivity, instantons and chiral symmetry breaking, matrix models and the construction of chiral gauge theories. Readership: Research scientists and graduate students of high energy physics and nuclear physics.

Book Description

A mathematically consistent formulation of relativistic quantum electrodynamics (QED) has still to be found. Nevertheless, there are several simplified effective models that successfully describe many body quantum systems and the interaction of radiation with matter. Large Coulomb Systems explores a selection of mathematical topics inspired by QED. It comprises selected, expanded and edited lectures given by international experts at a topical summer school and is intended as a high-level introduction for graduate students, postdocs and nonspecialists from related fields.

Book Description

Juxtaposing references to Freud and eye-liner, Icarus and super-glue, Virgin's Triangle gives a humorous commentary on contemporary relationships and Caribbean journalism.

Giselle Karan is twenty-six, attractiveand a virgin. When she meets Vishnu and Robert, men at opposite ends of the social spectrum, she begins to wonder if this condition is only temporary. But, as the Trinidad Carnival approaches, Giselle becomes increasingly confused about which man she should choose: the journalist or the construction worker. Only the sharp wit of the calypso offers a way out of this virgin's triangle.

Hot Carribean Reads.......2003-03-18

If you're looking for a good read Virgin's Triangle is it. The story is hot and spicy like Giselle, the main character. At times I found Giselle to be a little too snooty but all in all the story was great. It was told without all the sensationalism often found in American contemporary romance novels. It was just pure honest FUN without the crazy exaggerations.

Sweet Caribbean Chaos.......2002-03-06

This novel is based in Trinidad and was a fantastic and very entertaining read for me. Giselle Karan is an academic who is working with the Caribbean Media Company where she is a computer ace. Giselle has all that she wants but the only think lacking as far as she could see is a good partner. With her nose in the air she has a choice between Vishnu a construction worker who she physically attracted to, and Robert another man of her ilk who makes good money and will be accepted in the upper class Trinidad society.
CARNIVAL SEASON is coming up soon and this is the event of the year for all Trinidadians. Giselle however will make her choice sometime around then......but the ups and downs and her ifs and buts will determine who her suitor will be. She wants what she considers the good parts from both men.........the physical and good looking side from Vishnu and Robert's intellectual brains and money, and obviously the one everyone will expect her to wed. What will she do???

It may sound like a simple book.............but it was so full of excitement as Carnival draws near, and you're drawn into real transformation.The reader will have a wonderful time and a tremendous surprise at the end that will encourage you to think again. Simply as it seems you will be spellbound with a capital S. I recommend this for all readers who engage in Caribbean fiction and other similar work. Thanks Mr. Baldeosingh........come again soon.

My favorite book of the year.......2001-12-14

I am so glad I read this book, it was so good. It's the story of 26 year old Giselle, who's tryin to decide out of the two guy's she dating which to lose her virginity to. Vishnu, is a construction worker who she's more physically attractive to, and Robert is a guy who she think would be the better choice socially. The book is o funny, and Giselle has an attitude out of this world. Another thing I like about this book is that it was romantic without all the nasty talking, and graphic scences. This by far is my favorite read of the year.
