Key Concepts in Environmental Chemistry provides a modern and
concise introduction to environmental chemistry principles and the
dynamic nature of environmental systems. It offers an intense,
one-semester examination of selected concepts encountered in this
field of study and provides integrated tools in explaining complex
chemical problems of environmental importance. Principles typically
covered in more comprehensive textbooks are well integrated into
general chapter topics and application areas. The goal of this
textbook is to provide students with a valuable resource for
learning the basic concepts of environmental chemistry from an easy
to follow, condensed, application and inquiry-based perspective.
Additional statistical, sampling, modeling and data analysis
concepts and exercises will be introduced for greater understanding
of the underlying processes of complex environmental systems and
fundamental chemical principles. Each chapter will have
problem-oriented exercises (with examples throughout the body of
the chapter) that stress the important concepts covered and
research applications/case studies from experts in the field.
Research applications will be directly tied to theoretical concepts
covered in the chapter. Overall, this text provides a condensed and
integrated tool for student learning and covers key concepts in the
rapidly developing field of environmental chemistry.
Advances in Clinical Chemistry, Volume 78, the latest installment
in this internationally acclaimed series, contains chapters
authored by world-renowned clinical laboratory scientists,
physicians, and research scientists. The serial discusses the
latest and most up-to-date technologies related to the field of
clinical chemistry, and is the benchmark for novel analytical
approaches in the clinical laboratory.
His life thrown into chaos by the death of his father in his youth,
Linus Pauling persevered through an impoverished childhood to
become one of the great scientists and humanitarians of the 20th
century. In a stunningly original examination of the two-time Nobel
Laureate, Oregon State University archivist Chris Petersen touches
upon the major eras of Pauling's life and dials into specific
episodes, themes, accomplishments, and failures at a level of
detail that has not been put forth elsewhere. Topics exclusively
covered here include Pauling's generative process as author of the
groundbreaking text The Nature of the Chemical Bond; the colorful
history of the Linus Pauling Institute; his symbiotic relationship
with the W H Freeman & Co. publishing house; two entirely
separate clashes with the United States Senate and the Soviet
Academy of Science; and the story of his brilliant and troubled son
Peter. Interspersed throughout the book are light pieces that
narrate humorous moments in Pauling's life and other vignettes that
lend insight into his seemingly maverick personality. The
culmination of 15 years of research, Visions of Linus Pauling is a
magisterial piece of work, equivalent to previously unseen footage
of a blockbuster movie.The Pauling Blog:

Advances in Clinical Chemistry, Volume 77, the latest installment
in this internationally acclaimed series, contains chapters
authored by world-renowned clinical laboratory scientists,
physicians, and research scientists. The serial discusses the
latest and most up-to-date technologies related to the field of
clinical chemistry and is the benchmark for novel analytical
approaches in the clinical laboratory.
Annual Reports in Computational Chemistry provides timely and
critical reviews of important topics in computational chemistry as
applied to all chemical disciplines. Topics covered include quantum
chemistry, molecular mechanics, force fields, chemical education,
and applications in academic and industrial settings. Focusing on
the most recent literature and advances in the field, each article
covers a specific topic of importance to computational chemists.
Advances in Clinical Chemistry, Volume 76, the latest installment
in this internationally acclaimed series, contains chapters
authored by world-renowned clinical laboratory scientists,
physicians, and research scientists. The serial discusses the
latest and most up-to-date technologies related to the field of
clinical chemistry and is the benchmark for novel analytical
approaches in the clinical laboratory.
Covering more than 7,800 organic and inorganic chemicals and
hydrocarbons, Transport Properties of Chemical and Hydrocarbons,
Second Edition is an essential volume for any chemist or chemical
engineer. Spanning gases, liquids, and solids, the book covers all
critical properties (including viscosity, thermal conductivity, and
diffusion coefficient). From C1 to C100 organics and Ac to Zr
inorganics, the data in this handbook is a perfect quick reference
for field, lab, or classroom use. By collecting a massive - but
relevant - amount of information in one source, the handbook
enables engineers to spend more time developing new designs and
processes, and less time collecting vital properties data. This is
not a theoretical treatise, but an aid to the practicing engineer
in the field, on day-to-day operations and long-range projects.
