A must have for sheep owners.......2007-04-01
We recently began raising sheep and I was forever searching the internet for solutions to our problems. Since I purchased this book, the searching is over. Every problem we have encountered has been in the book. It's been a great source.
The Most Important Book You SHould Own If You Raise Lambs.......2003-04-12
This is the BEST book if you raise sheep. Young lambs can have so many problems, and they can become weak and die quickly. This book is very easy to use and the dosages for medication are clearly explained. We use it every year. My husband is a Vet and he recommends it.
Book Description
The dynamic field of astrochemistry brings together ideas of physics, astrophysics, biology and chemistry to the study of molecules between stars, around stars and on planets. Astrochemistry: from Astronomy to Astrobiology provides a clear and concise introduction to this rapidly evolving multidisciplinary subject. Starting with the Molecular Universe, the text covers the formation of the elements, simple models of stars and their classification. It then moves on to draw on the theme of the Origins of Life to study interstellar chemistry, meteorite and comet chemistry as well as the chemistry of planets. Prebiotic chemistry and astrobiology are explored by examining the extremes of the biosphere on Earth, seeing how this may be applied to life in other solar systems.
Astrochemsitry assumes a basic familiarity with principles of physical and organic chemistry but no prior knowledge of biology or astrophysics. This innovative text incorporates results from the latest research and ground and space missions, with key images enhanced by a colour plate section.
- includes latest research and results from ground and space missions
- colour plate section
- summary of concepts and calculations at the end of each chapter
- accompanying website www.wiley.co/go/shawastrochemistry
This book will be an ideal text for an undergraduate course in Astrochemistry and an essential tool for postgraduates entering the field.
Customer Reviews:
ambitious attempt.......2006-11-20
This book makes that ambitious attempt to cover a very large and diverse field. The author is clearly very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. There is a great deal of interest in this book, too. That said, there are numerous typos (e.g., a table showing the composition of the atmospheres of the inner planets has a blank column for oxygen; incorrect table citations in the text; tables and figures that do not entirely agree with the description of them in the text; errors in the formulas presented, etc). Further, the author covers some technical topics very briefly, making it hard to follow if you are using this text as your first introduction to the field. So, if you want to use this book as your introduction to the field, this book will have some interesting information for you, but may not be as helpful as more introductory books.

Book Description
The fundamentals of astrochemistry in the gas phase are relatively well established, in contrast to the special relevance attributed to processes involving interstellar dust grains - the solid component of matter diffused among the stars.
This book presents the state of the art in relation to the ways grains interact with gases, the catalytic role played by dust that allows key molecular species (H
2 as well as many complex, possibly prebiotic species) to be formed on its surface - which cannot be obtained efficiently by any other mechanisms, and the interaction between solids (dust grains, icy mantles, cometary nuclei, satellites of the giant planets and minor bodies in the Solar system) in space and energetic agents such as UV photons and fast particles.
The presence and importance of PAH, which may represent the smallest component of the grains, is considered in relation to possible astrobiological pathways and the ever-present mystery of the ubiquitous presence of Diffuse Interstellar Bands and their carriers.

Book Description
A rapidly growing interdisciplinary field, astrochemistry is the study of molecules and their chemistry in sources throughout the universe. In IAU S231, astronomers and chemists survey the current state of the field. The contributions in astronomy show how the study of molecules has aided our understanding of the physical conditions in many different types of regions, from the interstellar medium of our own galaxy to the very edge of the Universe. The contributions in laboratory and theoretical chemistry show how much we have learned about these often exotic chemical processes and how much more there is to learn. Suitable for researchers and graduate students in diverse disciplines, this volume will provide a sense both of the scope of astrochemistry in the early years of the twenty-first century and the immense possibilities of this field for future growth.

Book Description
Astromineralogy deals with the science of gathering mineralogical information from the astronomical spectroscopy of asteroids, comets and dust in the circumstellar environments in general. It is only recently, however, that this field has received a tremendous boost with the reliable identification of minerals by the Infrared Space Observatory. This book is the first comprehensive and coherent account of this exciting field. Beyond addressing the specialist in the field, the book is intended as a high-level but readable introduction to astromineralogy for both the nonspecialist researcher and the advanced student.

Astrophysics Of Gaseous Nebulae And Active Galactic Nuclei
ASIN: 3540433627 |
Book Description
The book is designed as an astrophysics textbook that provides a comprehensive introduction to the physics of Interstellar Matter. It is aimed primarily at those undertaking postgraduate courses, or those doing advanced projects as part of honors undergraduate courses in physics or astrophysics. It should also provide a handy reference to the field for astrophysics faculty and other researchers who are not necessarily experts in this particular subdiscipline. The objective of Astrophysics of the Diffuse Universe is to show how physics can be applied to the understanding and diagnosis of the phase structure, the physical conditions, and the chemical make-up and evolution of the interstellar medium. Consistent with the authors' lecture and course experience, here a systematic approach has been adopted to assist the development of the reader's insight into the physics underlying the subject.
Customer Reviews:
A good supplemental read.......2005-12-26
Another reviewer pointed out the shear amount of typos in this text book, so that remains relevant. I also echo the lack of pedagogical effectiveness, for which I do not necessarily blame the authors --- when is the last time you actually have encountered a pedagogically effective textbook? Although the discussions of physical concepts are probably not as deep or helpful as other textbooks considered to be of more pedagogical nature, what I find valuable in this textbook is the up-to-date reference and the connections made between the various astrophysical phenomena that might escape attention when being bogged down into the details of interpreting what physics says about a particular ISM question. As a student I used Spitzer and Osterbrock and found them to be pedagogically more effective, but when I picked up this textbook, I was also pleased about seeing how things that I learned from the other texts fit into a larger, more up-to-date astrophysical context. For that I think the book deserves a spot as a reference in any graduate level ISM course.
Another terrible book, like Osterbrock.......2004-05-16
This is another of the books I had to use for my graduate ISM course. I dont know what the problem is, but every book Ive read on the ISM was terrible at explaining things (because confusion in this subject is very easy), and none of them have an INDEX thats worth a crap. So dont expect to be able to do the homework problems in there.
Dopita is written a little better than Osterbrock, and there isnt the ridiculous amount of tables strewn within the text, but its not MUCH better.
Topical, but lots of typos.......2003-11-05
I used this as my textbook when teaching a graduate course on the interstellar medium. It has good explanations of a lot of current material, and includes some very detailed derivations for the advanced or interested reader. However, a lot of the basics are glossed over or not clearly explained - this book really needs to go hand in hand with Spitzer's "Physical Processes in the Interstellar Medium" to provide a complete picture. In any case, the big problem with this book is the ridiculous number of errors and typos (I and my students found over 100). This would just be annoying if all these errors were minor things like spelling mistakes. However, many of the errors are catastrophic, e.g. explaining spectroscopic notation but getting the labels all wrong, errors in the derivation of atomic levels, a calculation of cooling timescales which is wrong by a factor of 10^5, etc etc. This proved a very frustrating experience for me and for my students. Unless a second edition comes out with all these mistakes corrected, next time I will likely use this book for reference, but not recommend it to the students, so as to spare them this pain.
