Originally published in 1898. PREFACE: The definite object proposed in this work is an examination of the general history of Europe and America with particular reference to the effect of sea power upon the course of that history. Historians generally have been unfamiliar with the conditions of the sea, having as to it neither special interest nor special knowledge; and the profound determining influence of maritime strength upon great issues has consequently been overlooked. The period embraced is from 1660, when the sailingship era, with its distinctive features, had fairly begun, to 1783, th

A unified treatment of the theories, data, and technologies underlying physical vapor deposition methods With electronic, optical, and magnetic coating technologies increasingly dominating manufacturing in the high-tech industries, there is a growing need for expertise in physical vapor deposition of thin films. This important new work provides researchers and engineers in this field with the information they need to tackle thin film processes in the real world. Presenting a cohesive, thoroughly developed treatment of both fundamental and applied topics, Physical Vapor Deposition of Thin Films

This straightforward presentation explores chemical applications of thermodynamics as well as physical interpretations. The author considers the first and second laws of thermodynamics in turn, after which he proceeds to applications of thermodynamic principles, emphasizing the interpretation of entropy changes and chemical behavior in terms of qualitative molecular properties. 1964 edition.
