Graphene is the strongest material ever studied and can be an efficient substitute for silicon. This six-volume handbook focuses on fabrication methods, nanostructure and atomic arrangement, electrical and optical properties, mechanical and chemical properties, size-dependent properties, and applications and industrialization. There is no other major reference work of this scope on the topic of graphene, which is one of the most researched materials of the twenty-first century. The set includes contributions from top researchers in the field and a foreword written by two Nobel laureates in physics.

Very little phases blacksmith Kenna, so accidentally awakening a Goddess barely gives her pause, until she discovers what gifts Belisama has bestowed in her. She finds herself in the midst of a power struggle between two Gods that she didn't even know existed, but it's the fact that this isn't a challenge she can face alone that will almost get her killed. Morcant has been trapped as part of the Wild Hunt for centuries: he's seen his brother die as part of the curse; friends give up; and he'll do just about anything to keep the remaining members safe. So when he's promised their freedom, he agrees to do what the god Nodens asks, and stop the Godstouched from unwittingly creating more mayhem. But the Godstouched is Kenna, the first woman to touch his heart in millennia, which leaves him with a horrendous choice: her happiness, or freedom for those he thinks of as family.

Mitchy Bear is a story of a curious little bear who's mother warns him not to stray too far from his own yard. But Mitchy Bear's imagination leads him away. Follow him on his adventure to find out if he can find his way home.

I wanted to write about people who have a disease which destroys the ability to communicate or recognise anyone, causes the loss of bodily functions, forces dependency and dehumanises the sufferer - as Lewy body dementia did to my Mum. Some form of dementia affects 1 in 20 of the over 65's and 1 in 5 of over 80's, so many of us - how does it feel if you know that it is happening to you? Some sufferers have said that it enriches awareness and acts as a prism through which life is viewed differently. I could see that fantasy and reality merged in my Mum's mind and often wondered if she had an alternative world where her insecurities and fears manifested themselves as monsters and where she was powerful, resourceful and a leader, in contrast to her claustrophobic, trapped and deteriorating reality. Hopefully there is still power and creativity in the human mind even when it is damaged by plaques and tangles. I have imagined her thoughts based on what she said to me and from what I observed and have described factually and honestly the journey we took together. Recording my experience of her illness, treatment and life in two nursing homes led me to question how we treat our elderly, our shocking lack of effort to communicate with those with dementia and what constitutes identity, self and the soul. 'Over Streams and Squirrel Woods' explores what can happen when reality becomes too painful, and the disconnection between people when they see and hear differently from one another. It is about boundless love, frustration, guilt and the inexorable inevitability of aging. "This is a valuable addition to the dementia literature, rewriting our expectation of what those with dementia can think." John Suchet.
