    Book Description

    This highly organised annual serial provides a clear general review of structure/activity information for each synthetic compound discussed, clearly illustrates structures of compounds in every feasible synthetic pathway, and provides references to the primary literature for each reaction discussed.

    This latest volume provides easy access to solutions to specific problems faced by chemists involved in synthesis and provides information on recent synthetic advances, thereby helping to relieve the information overload that can be encountered in this field.

    The first three chapters of this latest volume organise Carbon-Carbon bond forming reactions, Oxidations and Reductions into reaction types for easy location. Later chapters deal with synthesizing heterocyclic systems, the use of protecting groups, other synthetically useful transformations and specific topic reviews. The final chapter compiles titles and papers within a "hot topic" format and although by no means inclusive, the listing provides a much needed useful reference to these topical areas.

    . Clearly organised and visually appealing

    . Extensive use of references

    . Includes a chapter dedicated to "hot topics" in the field

                Book Description

                One of the more difficult problems facing chemists today is that of "keeping up with the literature." Thus, an organized annual review of synthetically useful information would prove beneficial to nearly all organic chemists, both specialists and non-specialists in synthesis. Weintraub et al. are very successful in creating such an original review.

                        Moving away from his earlier belief in a short, catastrophic history of the Earth, Buckland's Treatise envisages instead progressive change as the Earth gradually cooled as it was prepared for human occupation.

                          When the delightful, daffy Dog Lady of station WZZZ offered to take on the temporary job of traffic reporter, Steve Crow tried to think of reasons to turn Daisy Adams down. Perhaps he knew that sharing the close quarters of a car with her for hours would give the handsome program director no room to resist her quirky charms. He'd always favored low-slung sportscars and high-heeled women, but that was before he fell for a free spirit who caught crooks by accident, loved old people and pets, and had just too many jobs!

                          Loving Daisy turned Steve's life upside down, especially once he adopted Bob, a huge dog masquerading as a couch potato. But was Daisy finally ready to play for keeps?

                          2 out of 5 stars Evanovich has written much much better.......2007-03-01

                          Daisy is a grad student with far too many balls in the air (and jobs for that matter). One of her many jobs is working at a radio station, and she asks for the traffic spot, only to unwittingly become the object of obsession by a mobster after foiling a crime. She also gains the attentions of her sexy boss Steve, who decides that she needs to be protected.

                          Amateur mobsters, a gun-toting granny, and antics galore cannot save this dated and predicatable retread, that could have done with some updating for its re-release. It's hard to believe that Evanovich even wrote this, as it contains some of the cheesiest dialogue ever - definitely pre-Plum.

                          The book was extremely entertaining. I found myself reading and laughing outloud. Janet Evanovich's writing is very funny. The characters almost seem like friends you might have yourself. I love her books!

                          As usual, Janet's books are enjoyable, fantasy reads. The men in her books are pure fiction but still we can enjoy imaginging there actually ARE guys like that out there! Liked the dog, especially.

                          FUN, RELAXATION ARE ONLY A FEW OF THE FEELINGS I HAVE WHEN READING ANY OF JANET EVANOVICH BOOKS CANT GET ENOUGH OF THEM

                          4 out of 5 stars Evanovich Style and Class... or Sass?.......2006-09-21

                          You can see Evanovich was bursting with talent before she even created Stephanie Plum! I can definately see how these aren't the typical "romance novels" but they're just as sexy. Evanovich provides an excellent plot that is always very funny. Her characters are the best! Way to go! Must read anything written by Janet Evanovich!

                          When the delightful, daffy Dog Lady of station WZZZ offered to take on the temporary job of traffic reporter, Steve Crow tried to think of reasons to turn Daisy Adams down. Perhaps he knew that sharing the close quarters of a car with her for hours would give the handsome program director no room to resist her quirky charms. He'd always favored low-slung sports cars and high-heeled women, but that was before he fell for a free spirit who caught crooks by accident, loved old people and pets, and had just too many jobs!

                          Loving Daisy turned Steve's life upside down, especially once he adopted Bob, a couch potato masquerading as a huge dog. But was Daisy finally ready to play for keeps?

                          1 out of 5 stars The Rocky Road to Romance CD (Evanovich, Janet (Spoken Word)).......2007-03-11

                          This is a 6 CD audio book. It was really quite terrible. I have faithfully read Ms. Evanovich's number books, but this was not up to par at all.

                          5 out of 5 stars delightful story!.......2007-03-09

                          Janet Evanovich is a wonderful author! listen or reading for that matter, you can picture everything going on in her stories. she describe the moment in great detail. I would recomend her books to any adult (books have an adult context to them. world rate it at least PG but NOT an R rated book)

                          4 out of 5 stars Delightful as Always.......2006-08-01

                          This was a happy little romp with another one of Evanovich's quirky self-effacing heroines, comical side-kicks and family members, and egotistical yet strong and loving heros.

                          In a world so full of strife, "The Rocky Road of Romance" is a wonderful little mental holiday for anyone reading it or, like me, listening to it on long commutes back and forth to work.

                          4 out of 5 stars The Rocky Road to Romance is a SMOOTH read!.......2005-09-11

                          ---another great love story! I highly recommend the audio version. The story goes by quickly. This book is an entertaining read!

                          5 out of 5 stars Feel like a romance with a humorous slant?.......2005-08-24

                          Evanovich is fast becoming one of my fave authors. This is the 3rd book of hers that I've heard (audiobooks are great for long drives!). This story made me laugh out loud constantly. Critt is a great reader for Janet's material. She puts a lot of expression into the characters that have been so wonderfully created. The storylines may be a bit fluffy, but you can't help smiling and feeling great about the happy endings!

                          5 out of 5 stars a delightful Stuart tale.......2004-07-02

                          A delightful, change-of-pace story from Anne Stuart. He is no madman, a killer, insane, or a dabbler in the Black Arts, this Stuart hero is an alpha-male, not one of her dark gamma-rogues who live outside the laws of man. In fact, he is a man of the law, a policeman from Chicago. After a long two-year manhunt for a serial killer, Matthew Connelly wants only to heal from the death of his partner and the terrible gunshot wound to his hip. Even more, he wants solitude to heal his troubled soul. He comes to an isolated island off the coast of Maine, figuring this to be the perfect place to be alone with himself and face his inner demons.

                          The last thing Matthew wants is a romance, especially with a sassy little redhead who lives just down the beach. The minute he caught sight of Jeannie MacPherson standing in his kitchen, he knew she was going to be trouble. She is not his type.
                          He likes big, buxom blondes, not a pert little redhead that won't take the hint he does not want her TLC. In the following weeks on the island, she keeps invading his solitude, with baked bread, muffins and the mothering that he really resents,
                          though at times he really needs.

                          Jeannie is on retreat as well, but it has stretched to a two-year long sojourn, but at thirty-one, her biological clock is ticking. She wants kids to mother, a man to love her, and she figures after one look, Matthew is not the man for those dreams. Only, something keeps pulling her back. Unable to resist him, she has a torrid affair with him, hoping that it will turn into something more.

                          Very wealthy, she is co-partners of a national ice cream franchise, and when she is called away for a week on business, she tells Matthew she will be back on the island on the following Thursday. Instead, she rushes home on Monday to find Matthew sneaking off the island. Jeannie is devastated that he was not even going to tell her he was leaving. In a fit, she tossed a lobster trap at him breaking a couple ribs and his wrist.

                          Matthew accepts a temporary position as a Police Chief of a growing resort town in Colorado. He figures it will give him time to finish healing, and sort out what he wants to do with his life. Also, give him time to heal from his brush with Jeannie. He plans on giving it five months, to see if he can put the nightmare of being a cop behind him, before seeking out Jeannie again, and seeing if he can build a relationship with her. Only, Jeannie is not about to give him time. She comes to town under the guise of putting in an ice cream factory and proceeds to show Matt there is no escaping her. Jeannie does everything to get Matthews attention, even to stealing his police car, daring him to arrest her.

                          The story is a bit lighter than some Stuart's typical dark and deadly tales, with some charming humor tossed in the mix. Matthew and Jeannie are vivid characters that will enchant you from beginning to end.

                          5 out of 5 stars One of my favourite Anne Stuart novels.......2000-12-07

                          Definitely a comfort book - I read this everytime I want to relax and have a chuckle. Jeannie MacPherson is the "nun" of Muscatoon island - small, red-headed and perky. Matthew Connelly is surly, cynical and absolutely gorgeous. Sparks fly when the convalescing cop encounters the perkily cheerful Jeannie. The dialogue in this book is hilarious and Matthew's appalling painting skills are described with deliciously wicked humour. This is one of those great books that makes you laugh out loud at the antics of the characters!
