Die Absicht des Verfassers, vorliegende Arbeit im Anschluss an seine "Farbereichemischen Untersuchungen" erscheinen zu lassen, hat leider - durch zwingende Umstande gehindert - einige Jahre ihrer Verwirklichung harren mussen. Nunmehr liegt die langst ge- plante Arbeit vor, die in gewissem Sinne die Fortsetzung der soeben erwahnten ist: Sie setzt da ein, wo die "Farbereichemischen Unter- suchungen" ihren Abschluss fanden, namlich in dem umfangreichen Gebiete der Teerfarbstoffe und den k 0 I 0 r ist i s c h nUn e t e r- s u c h u gen. n Anschliessend an diese wurden die wichtigsten textil- chemischen Untersuchungen eingeflochten und damit ein ab- geschlossenes Ganzes geschaffen. Zweck und Charakter der Arbeit sind dieselben geblieben wie dort, mit dem Hauptunterschiede vielleicht., dass hier auf breiterer Basis aufgebaut und somit weitergehenden Anspruchen Rechnung getragen wurde, wie auch die "Farbereichemischen Untersuchungen" bei einer Neubearbeitung wesentliche Vertiefung und Erweiterung erfahren sollen. Aus der Praxis entstanden, soll die Arbeit vor- nehmlich der Praxis dienen: dem oeffentlichen Chemiker, dem Farberei- chemiker, dem Farbereitechniker. Dann soll sie aber auch - aller- dings die chemischen und farbereipraparativen Grundlagen als be- kannt voraussetzend - dem Studierenden ein Leitfaden und Lehr- buch abgeben und nicht zum geringsten auch dem Farbstoffchemiker ein ubersichtlich geordnetes Material bieten, das ihm die Prufung seiner Produkte und die Schaffung einheitlicher Gesichtspunkte er- leichtern bzw. bei ihm anregen durfte.

Die im N achfolgenden beschriebene analytische Bestimmung und Erkennung der wichtigsten und gebrauchlichsten Appretur mittel erstreckt sich auf den Nachweis der anorganischen, d. h. beim Gliihen unzerstorbaren und organischen, d. h. in der Gliihhitze verbrennlichen Substanzen, welche fiir diese Zwecke in Anwendung zu kommen pflegen. Zunachst ist die Erkennung dieser Korper in Gemischen, die Untersuchung der sogenannten technischen Appreturmittel, wie sie in den verschiedenartigsten Formen z. B. als feste Korper, Pulver, Pasten, weiter als Emul- sionen, Losungen diinnfliissiger und schwerfliissiger Art, als Fette, Oele und dergleichen zum Appretieren der Gewebe in den Handel gebracht werden, in Betracht gezogen. Anschliessend an diese Ausfiihrungen, in welch en der aIl gemeine analytische Gang fiir solche Untersuchungen entwickelt ist, reiht sich die Anwendung dieser Priifungsmethoden bei der Bestimmung der Appretur der Gewebe. Die nach dem Ablosen der Appreturmittel von der Faser erhaItenen Losungen und etwaigen festen Korper, sind mit einigen Einschrankungen im wesentlichen nach denselben Gesichtspunkten zu unterssuchen, wie sie fUr die Bestimmung der einzelnen Substanzen in tech- nischen Appreturgemischen dargelegt wurden. Da, wie eingangs bereits bemerkt wurde, die Technik fiir Appreturzwecke Korper benutzt, welche einerseits der anorgani- schen, anderseits der organischen Reihe entnommen sind, so ist als Grundlage fUr aIle Untersuchungen zunachst festzusteIlen, Massot, Appretnranalyse. 1 - - ob Korper beider Art zugleich vorliegen und bei der Analyse Beriicksichtigung finden miissen, oder ob sich die Bestimmung im Rahmen der analytischen Priifungsmethoden der einen oder der anderen Korperklasse allein zu bewegen hat.

Soft computing refers to a collection of computational techniques which study, model and analyse complex phenomena. As many textile engineering problems are inherently complex in nature, soft computing techniques have often provided optimum solutions to these cases. Although soft computing has several facets, it mainly revolves around three techniques; artificial neural networks, fuzzy logic and genetic algorithms. The book is divided into five parts, covering the entire process of textile production, from fibre manufacture to garment engineering. These include soft computing techniques in yarn manufacture and modelling, fabric and garment manufacture, textile properties and applications and textile quality evaluation.

Dolls have long been perceived as symbols of domesticity, maternity, and materialism, designed by men and loved by girls who wanted to "play house." In this engagingly written and illustrated social history of the American doll industry, Miriam Formanek-Brunell shows that this has not always been the case. Drawing on a wide variety of contemporary sources-including popular magazines, advertising, autobiographies, juvenile literature, patents, photographs, and the dolls themselves-Formanek-Brunell traces the history of the doll industry back to its beginnings, a time when American men, women, and girls each claimed the right to construct dolls and gender. Formanek-Brunell describes how dolls and doll play changed over time: antebellum rag dolls taught sewing skills; Gilded Age fashion dolls inculcated formal social rituals; Progressive Era dolls promoted health and active play; and the realistic baby dolls of the 1920s fostered girls' maternal impulses. She discusses how the aesthetic values and business methods of women doll-makers differed from those of their male counterparts, and she describes, for example, Martha Chase, who made America's first soft, sanitary cloth dolls, and Rose O'Neill, inventor of the Kewpie doll. According to Formanek-Brunell, although American businessmen ultimately dominated the industry with dolls they marketed as symbols of an idealized feminine domesticity, businesswomen presented an alternative vision of gender for both girls and boys through a variety of dolls they manufactured themselves.
