              Description:
              The application of micellar systems has been growing during the last years because of their importance in various practical situations. Continued development of their application is necessary. If the principal economic interest of microemulsions is for some time enhanced oil recovery, the following also have significant applications such as pharmaceutical preparations, painting, and products for engine lubrication. The effect of variation in composition of anionic surfactants (@a oleifin sulfonates) and the presence of a water-soluble charged polymer (Xanthan gum) and an uncharged polymer [poly (ethylene glycol)] on the phase behaviour of pseudo- ternary systems of water-oil surfactants was investigated. Several domains were observed when the composition of surfactants and cosurfactants (e.g., pentanol) in a mixture is varied. The appearance of these domains in the phase diagram has been attributed to the formation of different Winsor systems.

                  Book Description

                  Paroviruses is the first book to describe the new organization of the Parovirus classification in its entirety (as agreed by the International Committee for the Taxonomy of Viruses), alongside cutting-edge information on the virology, immunology, and molecular and cellular biology of each known and proposed member of the family Parvoviridiae. This unique book also describes the clinical manifestations and significance of each virus, including the gene therapy applications of adeno-associated viruses, which is now widely used around the world. The book's highly qualified editor group has drawn together the most highly-qualified contributors from around the world to produce what will undoubtedly become the standard reference on the subject of Paroviruses.

                    Book Description

                    This comprehensive two-volume review reflects the period of transition in the scientific community with respect to the interest in all genera of parvoviruses. More recently, the availability of sophisticated analytical methods have associated parvoviruses with important disearses in animals and in humans. Research interest in parvaviruses is shifting from the molecular aspects of the virus itself to its molecular biology and its infection process, and to virus control-all attributable to the increased link between these viruses and disease. These illustrated texts cover the field and include a section devoted to study techniques specific to parvoviruses.

                                      La undécima edición en español del Sears Zemanski es una obra maravillosa. La física nunca tuvo una presentación tan atractiva. Impreso en papel de calidad, lleno de ilustraciones y fotografías en brillantes colores, y fundamentalmente con una exposición clara y rigurosa de los conceptos, el libro es una delicia. El divertido sentido del humor de los autores se encuentra en muchas de sus páginas. Esta edición marca una diferencia notable con otros textos de física, especialmente con los antiguos, en los que el color estaba ausente y los dibujos escasos. Aun cuando es una obra concebida para estudiantes universitarios, creo que los estudiantes de secundaria la encontrarán muy interesante como libro de consulta. De hecho, los lectores hispanos encontrarán que el Sears es mas claro y atractivo que muchos libros de física para estudiantes pre universitarios.

                                      Book Description

                                      “El año de mis noventa años quise regalarme una noche de amor con una adolescente virgen.”

                                      Un viejo periodista decide festejar sus noventa años a lo grande, dándose un regalo que le hará sentir que todavía está vivo: una jovencita. En el prostíbulo de un pintoresco pueblo, ve a la jovencita de espaldas, completamente desnuda, y su vida cambia radicalmente. Ahora que la conoce se encuentra a punto de morir, pero no por viejo, sino de amor.

                                      Así, Memoria de mis putas tristes cuenta la vida de este anciano solitario lleno de man’as. Por él sabremos cómo en todas sus aventuras sexuales (que no fueron pocas) siempre dio a cambio algo de dinero, pero nunca imagino que de ese modo encontrar’a el verdadero amor.

                                      Esta nueva novela es una conmovedora reflexión que celebra las alegrías del enamoramiento y contempla las desventuras de la vejez, escrito en el estilo incomparable de Gabriel García Márquez.



                                      “In my ninetieth year, I decided to give myself the gift of a night of love with a young virgin.”

                                      An elderly journalist decides to celebrate his 90 years in a grand way, giving himself a present that will make him feel like he’s still alive: a virgin. In the brothel of a picturesque town, he sees the young woman from the back, completely naked, and his life changes radically. Now that he meets her he finds himself close to dying, not of old age, but rather of love.

                                      Memoria de mis putas tristes is the story of this eccentric, solitary old man, a narrative of his sexual adventures (of which there were many), for which he always paid, never imagining that this would be the way he would discover true love.

                                      This new novel, written in Gabriel García Márquez’s incomparable style movingly, contemplates the misfortunes of old age and celebrates the joys of being in love.


                                      From the Hardcover edition.

                                      Si en este libro pretendes encontrar la sátira de Los Funerales de la Mamá Grande; la magia y complejidad de Cien Años de Soledad; el drama de Relato de un Náufrago; la determinación de El Amor en los Tiempos del Cólera; o la melancolía de Extraños Peregrinos: Doce Cuentos; te llevarás una gran desilusión. Pero en cambio, si tus ambiciones son mucho menores, y te dejas llevar ligeramente, sin prejuicios ni tapujos, a través de las breves líneas de este escrito, disfrutarás quizá de una de las historias de amor más sentidas, más profundas y más honestas, salidas de la pluma del creador de Macondo.

                                      Oscar Castro, escritor chileno, escribió "La vida simplemente". Gabriel García Márquez presenta otro perfil de un mismo entorno que al parecer ha sido una constante en el desarrollo de una cultura latinoamericana de la primera mitad del siglo XX.
                                      Esta novela llena de relatos de vivencias de un octogenario personaje que se enamora de una muchacha adolescente que se inicia en un burdel, es muy interesante cómo el autor hace gala de su ingenio para jugar con el tiempo dejando algunos entretenidos acertijos a sus lectores...

                                      I never received this book, I also send back 2 books (Medical Terminology) as for some reason the same book was ordered 3 times and charged 3 times to my account. I got tired of calling and trying to get a refund, one book got returned to me saying that it wasn't Amazons, the other you kept it and never got a refund. I am not happy wiht this type of service, I will not buy any more books from Amazons and I am telling everyone how is it that Amazon's works. I will follow up with the DA to investigate to see if that is how Amazons does business with all customers of this is was just bad luck, but I never received a response from Amazons, therefore I might take other ways to investigate.

                                      I love Gabriel Garcia Marquez, but I have to say that this is definitely not his best work. The characters were very dull, and it pretty much left me feeling like, why should I care?

                                      5 out of 5 stars Cruda pero brillante.......2006-09-30

                                      Gabriel Garcia Marquez nos encanta una vez mas con esa habilidad para hacernos vivir un mundo creado por el. La novela es cruda, incluso algunos podrian encontrar algo vulgar ciertas partes, pero el autor se las ingenia para narrar esos episodios con una harmonia de palabras que hasta el mas sensible no los encontrara ofensivos. La recomiendo a todos los admiradores de autores Latinoamericanos.
