Particle technology is a term used to refer to the science and
technology related to the handling and processing of particles and
powders. The production of particulate materials, with controlled
properties tailored to subsequent processing and applications, is
of major interest to a wide range of industries, including chemical
and process, food, pharmaceuticals, minerals and metals companies
and the handling of particles in gas and liquid solutions is a key
technological step in chemical engineering.
This textbook provides an excellent introduction to particle
technology with worked examples and exercises. Based on feedback
from students and practitioners worldwide, it has been newly edited
and contains new chapters on slurry transport, colloids and fine
particles, size enlargement and the health effects of fine powders.
Topics covered include:
Characterization (Size Analysis)Processing (Granulation,
Fluidization)Particle Formation (Granulation, Size
Reduction)Storage and Transport (Hopper Design, Pneumatic
Conveying, Standpipes, Slurry Flow)Separation (Filtration,
Settling, Cyclones)Safety (Fire and Explosion Hazards, Health
Hazards)Engineering the Properties of Particulate Systems
(Colloids, Respirable Drugs, Slurry Rheology)

Based on the research of the EU-6th framework funded research
consortium on 'New Modes of Governance in the European Union', this
volume explores the roots, execution and applications of new forms
of governance and evaluates their success.
Lectins have in the past been regarded by many scientists as
curious proteins of uncertain structure and specificity that bind
to carbohydrates of dubious significance themselves. All this is
rapidly changing. The functional importance of glycosylation in
cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions, as well as intracellular
events, has been recognized by the explosion of the science of
glycobiology. This has been paralleled by the realization that
lectins, once they have been well characterized, can be extremely
useful tools for exam- ing structural changes in glycosylation and
their functional consequences for human pathophysiology. Different
lectins vary considerably in their degree of specificity. Some,
such as wheatgerm agglutinin, have fairly broad specificity (for
glucosamine or sialic acid), whereas others, such as Maackia
amurensis, are specific not only for a single carbohydrate, but
also for its linkage (2-3 linked sialic acid). Lectins with
relatively broad specificity may be very useful as an adjunct to
isolation or quantification of soluble glycoproteins, whereas
lectins of known, and precise, specificity will be more useful for
characterization of carbo- drate structure. We have included an
appendix in Lectin Methods and Pro- cols that provides the known
specificities of all lectins cited in the text.

James Rhodes' Plato is a playwright. And a mystic. In his famous
"Seventh Letter" Plato had stated that the essence of his thought
couldn't be put into writing and hence he hadn't done so. This is
the self-interpretation of a mystic, Rhodes concludes. But then,
two eminent questions arise: Why, then, did Plato write at all?
And, how have his writings-his dialogues-to be understood, that is
to be read? Plato intended, Rhodes argues, to direct the souls of
those who entered into his dialogues toward the Good, the sun of
truth. As "truth" cannot be taught but only experienced (the mystic
dimension), Plato makes the readers of his dialogues enter into the
dramas-or "plays" (according to Rhodes)-that are formed by the
dialogues in the mode of a most sophisticated philosophic artistry.
You encounter one aporia after another, doubts heaped upon doubts,
hypotheses searchingly tested. It's a purifying experience to which
you are submitted in following the play, and the hope is, as Rhodes
formulates. "that our souls will bring forth beautiful things by
the end of the process." As befits a political philosopher, James
Rhodes focuses his study on the question of political leadership.
That is to say: true political leadership. The highly original
response he provides is very practical. And at the same deeply
congenial to the "mystical" art of Plato, the playwright. This book
will be a landmark in the field of studies on Plato.

When we met, Sam shared his own story with me and explained his
growing passion to help other Soldiers suffering from
post-traumatic stress. I encouraged him to expand his efforts, and
we kept in touch after he retired. He shared with me the feedback
he received from Soldiers and their families after they had heard
his presentations, and he gave me a copy of his first book,
Changing the Military Culture of Silence. I could only be impressed
as he carried his message across the country. George W. Casey
General, US Army (Ret) Former Army Chief of Staff With our veterans
committing suicide at an epidemic rate of 22 suicides per day, the
chains of stigma must be broken. This book is a reflection of Sam
Rhodes s personal experiences; he wears the proverbial tee-shirt.
One doesn t experience life without experiencing life-changing
events. It s how one handles those changes that counts. This book
addresses ways to handle those changes to effect a positive
outcome. Charles T. Jones Colonel, KYARNG Deputy Chief of Staff
Personnel CSM Rhodes carried the hidden wounds of three combat
tours inside him when he returned to Fort Benning to serve as the
CSM of the Infantry School Training Brigade. After much
soul-searching and anguish, he finally realized and publicly
acknowledged that he suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
(PTSD). In doing so, he realized that part of his healing needed to
include a concerted effort on his part to give back to the extended
family he had come to know so well, his fellow Soldiers and their
families, and to confront the issues plaguing him. Philip R. Tilly,
Lieutenant Colonel, US Army (Ret)"

Digital trade is defined in this book as commerce in products and
services delivered via the Internet. Products and services
delivered via the Internet make up a growing segment of the U.S.
economy. Internet technologies have also transformed how many goods
and services in the economy are produced and delivered. Digital
sales make up more than half of music industry revenue; the digital
shares of sales for games, videos, and books are smaller, but
growing quickly. This book provides information on the role of
digital trade in the U.S. and global economies, describes notable
barriers and impediments to digital trade, and outlines potential
approaches for further assessing the role of digital trade in the
U.S. economy.
At the request of the U.S. Senate Committee on Finance, the U.S.
International Trade Commission undertook an investigation to better
understand the role of digital trade--domestic commerce and
international trade conducted via the Internet -- in the U.S. and
global economies, as well as the effects of barriers and
impediments to digital trade that impede U.S. access to global
markets. This book shows that digital trade contributes to economic
output by improving productivity and reducing trade costs. Digital
trade also contributes to the economy as a whole as it facilitates
communication, expedites business transactions, improves access to
information, and improves market opportunities for small and
medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
