Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most powerful and widely used techniques in chemical research for investigating structures and dynamics of molecules. Advanced methods can even be utilized for structure determinations of biopolymers, for example proteins or nucleic acids. NMR is also used in medicine for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The method is based on spectral lines of different atomic nuclei that are excited when a strong magnetic field and a radiofrequency transmitter are applied. The method is very sensitive to the features of molecular structure because also the neighboring atoms influence the signals from individual nuclei and this is
important for determining the 3D-structure of molecules.
This new edition of the popular classic has a clear style and a highly practical, mostly non-mathematical approach. Many examples are taken from organic and organometallic chemistry, making this book an invaluable guide to undergraduate and graduate students of organic chemistry, biochemistry, spectroscopy or physical chemistry, and to researchers using this well-established and extremely important technique. Problems and solutions are included.

Reiki is the Japanese word for universal life energy. This volume explains how this remarkable healing method sends energy through the hands of a practitioner into the body of a receiver.

Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfangen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen fur die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfugung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden mussen. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.

This book contains 100 selected essays that Arthur Gunther, editorial page editor of the "Journal News" (Rockland County, NY) has written in the past 25 years. Each contains reflections on Rockland County life, including the author's own experiences with people who have made it interesting and places that are memorable.

Martin Werthmann (*1982) is one of the most prominent artists worldwide to make an intensive study of the woodcut as a genre. His monumental colour woodcuts, executed on large widths of paper, enchant by means of his radically new language of forms and aesthetics, which puts the vague and diffuse in the center of attention. Werthmann's more recent works are based on structures and elements from photographs of attacks and acts of war. In numerous superimposed layers he translates them into the medium of the woodcut and thus creates pictorial spaces which are full of tension and as they hover between beauty and violence. With a particular focus on the SILENCE series this volume presents for the first time a comprehensive overview of the impressive work of this Berlin-based artist.
