The Volume will cover a broad range of topics in Electrochemistry in an authoritative manner by internationally renowned specialists. The topics include an overview of theoretical advances in quantitative treatment of solute-solvent interactions and an analysis of the formation mechanisms of porous silicon. Recent advances on the use of electrochemistry in medicine will be surveyed in a chapter by Dr. A. Vijh.

In recent years, the media have inundated us with coverage of the horrors that befall methamphetamine users, and the fires, explosions, and toxic waste created by meth labs that threaten the well-being of innocent people. In Methamphetamine: Its History, Pharmacology, and Treatment, the first book in Hazelden’s Library of Addictive Drugs series, Ralph Weisheit and William L. White examine the nature and extent of meth use in the United States, from meth’s early reputation as a ’wonder drug’ to the current perception that it is a ’scourge’ of society. In se

Recognized experts present incisive analysis of both fundamental and applied problems in this continuation of a highly acclaimed series. Topics discussed include: + A thorough and mathematical treatment of periodic phenomena, with consideration of new theories about the transition between `order’ and `chaos’; + Impedance spectroscopy as applied to the study of kinetics and mechanisms of electrode processes; + The use of stoichiometric numbers in mechanism analysis; + The electro-osmotic dewatering of clays with important implications for the processi

Topics in Number 36 include: + Electrochemical nuclear magnetic resonance (EC-NMR). This powerful non-invasive technique brings new insights to both fundamental and practical key aspects of electrocatalysis, including the design of better anodes for PEM fuel cells. + The recent impressive advances in the use of rigorous ab initio quantum chemical calculations in electrochemistry. This lucid chapter is addressed to all electrochemists, including those with very little prior exposure to quantum chemistry, and demonstrates the usefulness of ab initio calculations, including density functional the

The journals printed in this volume, covering the years 1852 to 1855, find Emerson increasingly drawn to the issues and realities of the pragmatic, hard-working nineteenth century. His own situation as a middle-aged, property-owning New Englander with a large household to support gave him a strong sense of everyday financial necessity, and his wide reading for his projected book on the English impressed him deeply with the worldly success that had conic to that unphiiosophieal people. The growing crisis over slavery at home, moreover, demanded the attention of every citizen, even one as relu

David Michaels is afraid. His palms sweat. His knees threaten to buckle. And his tongue, like his stomach, seems to be tied in knots. For David is due to give a series of presentations. His objective is to win support for his project to save sick children in Amazonia. Fortunately, help is at hand in the unlikely shape of Demosthenes, the 4th-century Greek orator. Under his tutelage, David overcomes his fears and learns how to create a powerful presentation. What he learns, he realises, can be applied to any presentation, large or small. By following David as he gradually masters the techniques
