This book describes the structures and properties of the main groups of natural pigments, their distribution in Nature, their biosynthesis and f

Wes Britton’s Spy Television (2004) was an overview of espionage on the small screen from 1951 to 2002.

Onscreen and Undercover, the last book in Britton’s Spy Trilogy, provides a history of spies on the large screen, with an emphasis on the stories these films present.Since the days of the silent documentary short, spying has b
