The unique properties and functionalities of chalcogenide glasses
make them promising materials for photonic applications.
Chalcogenide glasses are transparent from the visible to the near
infrared region and can be moulded into lenses or drawn into
fibres. They have useful commercial applications as components for
lenses for infrared cameras, and chalcogenide glass fibres and
optical components are used in waveguides for use with lasers, for
optical switching, chemical and temperature sensing and phase
change memories. Chalcogenide glasses comprehensively reviews the
latest technological advances in this field and the industrial
applications of the technology.
In this completely rewritten Second Edition of Trans Fatty Acids in
Human Nutrition authors who are recognised international
authorities in their field have addressed the major areas of trans
fatty acids (TFA) research such as consumption, analysis,
biochemistry, synthesis and natural TFA biosynthesis, health
effects, food formulation, and also regulation and consumer
perception. Each chapter contains the latest references and major
advances and breakthroughs in a specific area of trans fatty acids
research. Furthermore, the book also includes a discussion of a
major issue - the health effects of the natural trans isomers,
comparing their effects to those observed for TFA produced during
hydrogenation.
She wants a future - is that too much? This Thing Called the Future, the multiple-award-winning young-adult novel from J.L. Powers, is finally coming to South Africa, its country of origin. The book is set in Imbali, the sprawling township outside Pietermaritzburg. Khosi is fourteen years old. She lives with her grandmother and her little sister, Zi. Both her parents tell her of the past, about a time when hundreds of Imbali residents were killed in political violence. Khosi wants a future; she wants to help make South Africa a better place. Is that too much in an environment where some men believe that raping virgins, like Khosi, will cure them of AIDS? Meanwhile, Khosi has fallen in love and really, really just wants to experience that warm, fuzzy feeling that happens when Little Man, the handsome boy in her class, touches her hand. In a world where HIV and AIDS are treatable for those with money and access to good state-sponsored care, Khosi has to negotiate hours in clinic lines, vengeful men, her mother's disdain for traditional healers, her grandmother's faith in their sangoma, and the terrible curse her next-door neighbour has cast on their household. This beautifully crafted young-adult novel never preaches and never falls into the trap of “warning” teenagers against anything. It simply deals with the realities of township life and the hardships a young virgin faces. This Thing Called the Future has won several prizes in the USA. LAPA and Catalyst Press are proud to bring it back to its country of origin.
