This handbook makes the arduous task of selecting a rheology modifier for a specific application much easier. Technologists can now avoid searching through the technical literature for likely candidates, contacting suppliers for information and recommendations, and paring the list of candidates down from hundreds to a few dozen. With the information provided by the author of the handbook, users can make choices quickly and easily.

The book is divided into four useful sections. Part I reviews the fundamentals of rheology. Part II presents critical details on more than 1,000 commercially available rheology products, arranged alphabetically by chemical type, trade name and supplier's name.

Part III focuses on the selection of suitable rheology modifier candidates, summarizing the supplier's recommended applications for each type and covering pertinent regulatory issues when using a modifier in food or pharmaceutical applications. The handbook provides key information on specific rheology modifiers for food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and household applications, covering 20 different types manufactured by 26 companies worldwide, and ranging from acrylic polymers to xanthan gum. Part IV contains 227 formulations showing which rheology modifiers are recommended for various applications and how they are incorporated into the formulation.

Key Features:

- Highly practical book containing ready-to-use information on rheology modifiers not previously available in one source

- Step-by-step guide provides all the information needed to select the right agent for each type of application -- and shows how to use it

- Saves valuable research time by eliminating the need to contactmultiple suppliers and peruse their catalogs and product sheets

- Appendix contains addresses, telephone and fax numbers, email addresses, and websites of manufacturers, plus a trade name directory

This international collection of research from the field of signed language teaching fills a gap in the applied linguistics literature. While signed language teaching has rapidly established an accepted place in the academic domain of second language teaching, pedagogy has widely been shaped by conventional practices, available teaching curricula, and findings from descriptive linguistic research. In general, developments in curricula, teaching approaches, and assessment have been relatively unmediated by applied, empirical research on learning and teaching. Teaching and Learning Signed Languages contributes to expanding an emerging research literature on contemporary practices and issues in the teaching and learning of signed languages. 11 chapters by authors in Europe, Asia-Pacific and North America address the following themes:
Training of signed language teachers
Contexts for signed language teaching and learning
Application of digital tools at the research-teaching nexus
Learner perspectives
Effects of first and second languages and modality in signed language instruction
Formative assessment

Collection of 22 essays presented at the 2nd Rappaport Symposium. Authors include academicians, physicians, and medical researchers. The articles aim to highlight emerging areas of scientific investigations currently being conducted and to stress new directions for upcoming research. The mechanisms

A New York Times Editor’s Choice One of Newsweek’s Most Highly Anticipated Books of 2021 Named a Bustle Best Book of 2021 An award-winning journalist’s breathtaking mosaic of the tough-love industry and the young adults it inevitably fails. In the middle of the night, they are vanished. Each year thousands of young adults deemed out of control—suffering from depression, addiction, anxiety, and rage—are carted off against their will to remote wilderness programs and treatment facilities across the country. Desperate parents of these “troubled teens” fear it’s their only option. The private, largely unregulated behavioral boot camps break their children down, a damnation the children suffer forever. Acclaimed journalist Kenneth R. Rosen knows firsthand the brutal emotional, physical, and sexual abuse carried out at these programs. He lived it. In Troubled, Rosen unspools the stories of four graduates on their own scarred journeys through the programs into adulthood. Based on three years of reporting and more than one hundred interviews with other clients, their parents, psychologists, and health-care professionals, Troubled combines harrowing storytelling with investigative journalism to expose the disturbing truth about the massively profitable, sometimes fatal, grossly unchecked redirection industry. Not without hope, Troubled ultimately delivers an emotional, crucial tapestry of coming of age, neglect, exploitation, trauma, and fraught redemption.

The human footprint on the global environment now touches every corner of the world. This book explores the myriad ways that environmental archives can be used to study the distribution and long-term trajectories of chemical contaminants. The volume first focuses on reviews that examine the integrity of the historic record, including factors related to hydrology, post-depositional diffusion, and mixing processes. This is followed by a series of chapters dealing with the diverse archives and methodologies available for long-term studies of environmental pollution, such as the use of sediments, ice cores, sclerochronology, and museum specimens.

A WIRED 2020 Book of the Year Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. "Nothing's bulletproof," the salesman said. "The thing's only bullet resistant." The New York Times journalist Kenneth R. Rosen had just purchased his first bulletproof vest and was headed off on assignment. He was travelling into Mosul, Iraq, when he realized that the idea of a bulletproof vest is more effective than the vest itself. From its very inception, poly-paraphenylene terephthalamide, or Kevlar, was meant for tires. Its humble roots and mundane applications are often lost, as it is now synonymous with body armor, war zones, and domestic terrorism. What Rosen learned through intimate use of his vest was that it acts as a metaphor for all the precautions we take toward digital, physical, and social security. Bulletproof Vest is at once an introspective journey into the properties and precisions of a bulletproof vest on a molecular level and on the world stage. It's also an ode to living precariously, an open letter that defends the notion that life is worth the risk. A portion of the author's proceeds will be donated to RISC, a nonprofit that provides emergency medical training to freelance conflict journalists. For more information, go to www.risctraining.org. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.
