ASIN: 3540207708 |
Book Description
The basic concept of this new edition remains unchanged: Emphasis is again put on a broader description of the general methods and processes for the synthesis, modification and characterization of macromolecules. These more fundamental chapters will be supplemented by 115 selected and detailed experiments. In addition to the preparative aspects the book also gives the reader an impression on the relation of chemical constitution and morphology of Polymers to their properties, as well as on their application areas. Thus, an additional textbook will not be needed in order to understand the experiments.
The 4th edition nevertheless contains numerous changes: Chapter 1 and 2 are enlarged, 15 older examples have been replaced by new ones and background text is added. Suitable for students in organic and polymer chemistry as well as for chemists in industry who want to acquaint themselves with the theoretical and practical aspects of macromolecular chemistry.
From the reviews:
"This is an excellent book for all polymer chemsits engaged in synthesis research studies and education. It is educationally sound and has excellent laboratory synthetic examples. The fundamentals are well done for the teaching of students and references are resonably up-to-date. As in previous issues, there are sections dealing with an introduction; structure and nomenclature; methods and techniques for synthesis, characterization, processing and modification of polymers.
....The authors have noted the following changes from previous editions- a new section on correlayions of structure, morphology and properties; revision and enlargement of other property and characterization procedures; additional new experiments such as controlled radical polymerization; enzymatix polymerizations; microelmulsions; and electrical conducting polymers.
This is a high quality textbook at a reasonable price and should be considered as a suitable references for all engaged in synthetic areas of polymer research." (Eli M. Pearce)

The Great Dinosaur Extinction Controversy (Helix Books)

Customer Reviews:
A thought-provoking book with a few faults.......1999-10-04
An Excellent, Thought Provoking Book!.......1999-06-08
The book is an excellent study of how a lie becomes fact........1998-09-28
Unscientific.......1998-08-12
When initially proposed as an explanation of the Cretaceous Mass Extinction in 1980, the meteor impact theory of Alvarez et al was greeted with widespread "howls of rage and laughter" (to use the words of Gould). Over the ensuing years data after data has accumulated till now it is the reigning paradigm. People don't give up their cherished beliefs, their hard earned intellectual positions easily and without good evidence. Some never do. As Kuhn has pointed out some never do accept a new paradigm and we must wait for a generation to die out.
The case in point here is Officer and Page who are still in a state of denial. Their book, THE GREAT DINOSAUR EXTINCTION CONTROVERSY can be viewed as a last gasp attempt to "just say it isn't so". It is not a fairly written book. They leave out data. (example: the results of core drilling at the Chixulub Crater site). And without the hard data to back their position, they fall back on polemics -- They simply deny that there was a meteor impact at all.
One would be annoyed by this, if one did not realize that Officer has left the realm of science and entered that of religion where beliefs must be accepted on faith.
For a comprehensive review of the data that has won over the bulk of the scientific community see NIGHT COMES TO THE CRETACEOUS by James Lawrence Powell, or T. REX AND THE CRATER OF DOOM by Walter Alvarez himself.

Club Vampyre: Guilty Pleasures, The Laughing Corpse, and Circus of the Damned
Laurell K. Hamilton Manufacturer: Guild America Books ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: B000MX5622 |
Product Description
An omnibus edition of the first three Anita Blake novels. The dust jacket flap reads: "I'm Anita Blake, expert on creatures of the night. Vampires call me The Executioner. What I call them isn't repeatable. Ever since the Supreme Court granted the undead equal rights, most people think vampires are just ordinary folk with fangs. I know better. I've seen their victims. I carry the scars ... In my job -- I'm an animator; I raise the dead -- I've seen just about everything. I've dined with shapeshifters, danced with werewolves and been wooed, but not won, by Jean-Claude, the most powerful bloodsucker in St. Louis. When a serial killer started murdering vampires, it was Jean-Claude who wanted me to find the killer. Later, a rogue vamp named Alejandro hit town and wanted to make me his human servant. A war of the undead had begun. Over me. I'd have been flattered, if my life weren't at stake. Speaking of life ... and death ... every animator worth her salt knows that the older the zombie, the bigger the death needed to raise it. After a few centuries, the only death "big enough" is a human sacrifice. Now, I'm no assassin -- sure I kill vampires -- and I don't do it for the money -- but I don't kill people. Like I said, working for Animators, Inc. is just a job, like selling insurance. But all the money in the world wasn't enough for me to take on the particular job Harold Gaynor was offering. Somebody else did, though -- an insane animator. And he wasn't just raising the dead ... he was raising Hell. And it was up to me to stop it ...
