Owen Wister is known to most Americans as the creator of the heroic cowboy in The Virginian (1902). Despite his success as a Western novelist, Wister’s failure to write about his native city of Philadelphia has been lamented by many for the loss of a literary "might-have-been." If only, sighed Wister’s contemporary Elizabeth Robins Pennell in 1914, the novelist could understand that Philadelphia was as good a subject as the Wild West. Hence the surprise when James Butler uncovered a substantial fragment of a Philadelphia novel, which Wister intended to call Romney. Here, published

In the present era of the post "new economy." scores of successful companies are now tending more than ever to steer away from the old model of extreme reward by extreme-speculation. While innovation thrives today, it is focused on the fundamentals of value and high performance. Technology blueprints are concrete, proven tactical and strategic patterns, critical to directly aligning technology execution with a fundamental business vision. Within these pages, a comprehensive set of technology blueprints covers a broad spectrum of areas, from technical leadership to asset assessment and

Carbon dioxide, bicarbonate ion, and carbonate ion comprise the most important acid-base system in natural waters, and the equilibria between them regulate the pH of seawater, as well as most rainwater, stream water, river water, and groundwater. Carbon Dioxide Equilibria and Their Applications provides a clear, compact presentation of this topic, which is central to geochemistry and environmental engineering. It emphasizes a rigorous mathematical and thermodynamic basis for calculations and their application to realistic problems.The book’s first four chapters present the basic equatio
