Reference materials play an important role in analytical chemistry,
where they are used by analysts for a variety of purposes,
including: checking and calibrating instruments; validating methods
and estimating the uncertainty of analytical measurements; checking
laboratory and analyst performance; and internal quality control.
This book provides guidance and information for the users of
certified reference materials (CRMs), explaining how they can best
be used to achieve valid analytical measurements and improve
quality in the analytical laboratory. General information on CRMs
and how they are produced sets the scene for readers. The
statistics relating to CRM use are then explained in an
easy-to-understand manner, and this is followed by sections
covering the main uses of CRMs. Detailed worked examples are used
throughout. Structured and comprehensive in coverage, this book
will be welcomed by all users of certified reference materials.
This book deals exclusively and comprehensively with the role of
proficiency testing in the quality assurance of analytical data. It
covers in detail proficiency testing schemes from the perspectives
of scheme organisers, participant laboratories and the ultimate
end-users of analytical data. A wide variety of topics are
addressed including the organisation, effectiveness, applicability,
and the costs and benefits of proficiency testing. Procedures for
the evaluation and interpretation of laboratory proficiency, and
the relation of proficiency testing to other quality assurance
measures are also discussed. Proficiency Testing in Analytical
Chemistry is an important addition to the literature on proficiency
testing and is essential reading for practising analytical chemists
and all organisations and individuals with an interest in the
quality of analytical data.
Where do Scottish literatures, art, and cinema stand today? What
and how do Scottish Studies investigate? Creative writers and
scholars give answers to these questions and address vital concerns
in Scottish, British, and European history from the Union debate
and the Enlightenment to Brexit, ethnic questions, and Scottish
film. They present new insights on James Macpherson, Robert Burns,
John Galt, J. M. Barrie, Walter Scott, James Robertson, war poetry,
new Scottish writing, and nature writing. The contributions
highlight old and new networking and media as well as the
persistent influences of the past on the present, analyzing a wide
range of texts, media and art forms with approaches from literary,
cultural, media, theatre, history, political, and philosophical
studies.
What has happened to American liberty? One of the major hindrances
to the advancement of mankind is the subliminal mind control of
political correctness - or PC. Once thought of as merely a method
by which society could become more sensitive to the needs of
others, PC has become a brainwashing technique used by those who
wish to control not only our minds, but also our actions. Those who
use PC in this manner prey on natural human compassions to further
their own hidden agendas. They will advance their agendas by almost
any means necessary, including the use of false accusations and
outright lies. Far too often those agendas have very little, if
anything, to do with the problems they claim to solve. In most
cases, they ultimately harm the very people they claim to help. In
his book, author Ron Walker offers you a stimulating read by
inviting you to recognize and analyze the difference between
sensitive speech and agenda-driven propaganda. Without Firing a
Shot is not about trading one form of mind control for another.
Using real-life examples and in-depth analysis, the author explains
how to look for the signs of the shell game known as political
correctness in order to better understand the world in which we
live. Whether you agree with his opinions or not doesn't really
matter. His thought-provoking commentary challenges and encourages
you to discover a method by which you can free yourself from
preconceived political ideologies, research the facts with an open
mind, discover the truth, and draw your own conclusions.
