Advances in Soil Science was conceived in 1982 to provide a forum for leading international scientists to analyze and summarize the available scientific information on a subject, assessing its importance and ident ifying additional research needs. This goal seems even more appropriate today. Much is known about our soil resources. The principles learned and the technology developed need to be used to increase food pro duction, particularly in developing countries, and sustain the productivity of the resource base. Advances in Soil Science fills a gap between the scientific journals and the comprehensive reference books. Scientists can delve in depth on a particular subject relating to soil science. Contributors are asked in particular to develop and identify principles that have practical applications to both developing and developed agricultures. Advances in Soil Science was established to be international in scope and cover all subjects relating to soil science. This volume certainly fulfills that objective. The first chapter is concerned with denitrification. The significance of denitrification in nitrogen use efficiency in agricultural, grassland, and forest ecosystems, and in global nitrogen cycling is now well recognized. Therefore, an understanding of denitrification is essential for the efficient use of nitrogen fertilizers and for protecting the environ ment. The second chapter looks at the effects of subzero temperatures on the physical, biological, and chemical processes. This is an important area of soil science that has not been studied in great detail."

Robyn Rhys is a woman that seems to have it all. President of a chain of vocational schools, wife, mother and community leader in Orlando Fl. At 33 she has a life to envy. A woman adapt at being the perfect person for every aspect of her life. But what the world doesn't see is a woman being torn apart. Antonia Colburn has just been appointed the Deputy DA for the new Special Crimes Unit in the city of Chicago. At 34, she is the youngest woman to hold such a position. She has been a passionate prosecutor and an advocate for women and children. Yet her personal life is empty and now her passion for justice is threatening her very existence. Robyn and Toni were the best of friends. A friendship that was torn apart by love, betrayal and secrets. Thrown back together by fate or so they believe. Their reunion will set them on a journey to examine the past. A past filled with secrets that neither wish to reveal. With a common goal to seek justice, each must learn to trust the other. Robyn must find and use the anger she holds inside, while Toni must learn to let go of the same. As the past is revealed and their demons faced, the new bonds they have forged will be tested. And only then can the Darkness within be released.
