Information literacy-the ability to find, evaluate, and use
information resources-is an important skill for future chemists.
Students and scientists need to distinguish between information
provided by Wikipedia, ChemSpider, research journals, and The New
York Times, depending on the intended use of the information
sought. Instructors and librarians may often teach these skills
through stand-alone database demonstrations, video tutorials, and
lectures. However, it is possible to teach these skills in a more
contextual and integrated manner by designing chemistry assignments
that incorporate information literacy as a learning outcome. This
book will prove useful for librarians and chemistry instructors who
are designing courses in which students develop information
literacy in the context of a chemistry course at two-year colleges,
public and private universities, and high schools. The chapters in
this book review the current state of information literacy in
chemistry and provide concrete examples of assignments and
interventions aimed at teaching information literacy skills in
chemistry curricula. A wide range of options are offered for
integrating information literacy into college-level chemistry
courses, including general chemistry, organic chemistry, science
courses for students not majoring in science, and chemistry
capstone research courses.
A powerful novel of the saving grace of language and human
connection, from the celebrated author of The Vegetarian.
'Breathtaking . . . She is simply my favourite living writer to
read, and think with, and see the world with' Max Porter In a
classroom in Seoul, a young woman watches her Greek language
teacher at the blackboard. She tries to speak but has lost her
voice. Her teacher finds himself drawn to the silent woman, for day
by day he is losing his sight. Soon they discover a deeper pain
binds them. For her, in the space of just a few months, she has
lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old
son. For him, it's the pain of growing up between Korea and
Germany, being torn between two cultures and languages. Greek
Lessons is a tender love letter to human connection, a novel to
awaken the senses, vividly conjuring the essence of what it means
to be alive. Translated by Deborah Smith and Emily Yae Won.
'Another stunning gem: quiet, sharply faceted, and devastating'
Kirkus 'Han Kang is a writer like no other. In a few lines, she
seems to traverse the entirety of human experience' Katie Kitamura

Recent advances witness the potential to employ nanomedicine and
game-changing methods to deliver drug molecules directly to
diseased sites. To optimize and then enhance the efficacy and
specificity, the control and guidance of drug carriers in
vasculature has become crucial. Current bottlenecks in the optimal
design of drug carrying particles are the lack of knowledge about
the transport of particles, adhesion on endothelium wall and
subsequent internalization into diseased cells. To study the
transport and adhesion of particle in vasculature, the authors have
made great efforts to numerically investigate the dynamic and
adhesive motions of particles in the blood flow. This book
discusses the recent achievements from the establishment of
fundamental physical problem to development of multiscale model,
and finally large scale simulations for understanding transport of
particle-based drug carriers in blood flow.
A HEART THAT YEARNS FOR MILORD Chen Xing has finally arrived in
Chang’an and is to meet the Great Chanyu, a man rumored to be so
beautiful and adorned in finery that he’s beset by marriage proposals.
So why is Xiang Shu sitting on the Great Chanyu’s throne? Meanwhile,
rumor has it that His Majesty, Fu Jian, will soon enact a decree that
any Hu to marry a Han will receive a stipend. What’s more, anyone could
become a wife, be they woman or man. But those feelings of love are not
exactly reciprocal, as a plot to take down His Majesty is afoot, and a
mysterious assassin leaves the Hu Dynasty scrambling for answers. But
danger or not, Xiang Shu remains conspicuously hesitant to make himself
Chen Xing’s protector. Questions abound as Chen Xing, Xiang Shu, and
Feng Qianjun fall deeper into a tangled web of secrets. Will the
inscrutable Great Chanyu finally say ‘I do’ to Chen Xing’s proposal?
Will Chen Xing uncover clues to the Mara case? And can the three men
quell the winds of revolt? Series Overview: It has been three hundred
years since magic disappeared from the Divine Land. Chen Xing is the

return of the demonic entity known as Mara echo across the land, Chen
Xing is burdened with a daunting task: to seek out his fated
counterpart, the Protector Martial God, and together, to save the
world. Enter Xiang Shu, a condemned man with a haunted past. Accused of
unspeakable atrocities, Xiang Shu is an enigma—handsome, skilled, and
facing execution for crimes he claims he didn’t commit. As their

classic text provides a rigorous introduction to basic probability
theory and statistical inference, with a unique balance between
theory and methodology. Interesting, relevant applications use real
data from actual studies, showing how the concepts and methods can
be used to solve problems in the field. This revision focuses on
improved clarity and deeper understanding.
It has been suggested that national economic policies should focus
on taxation to achieve social equity and interest rates for
economic efficiency; wealth distribution can balance efficiency and
equity through tax rates, interest rates, and exchange rates.
Additionally, while the economic system seeks efficiency and the
social system pursues equity, common interest modifications with
elastic exchange and tax rates should be applied for balancing
efficiency and equity. Wealth Expanding Theory Under the Principle
of Efficiency-Equity Equilibrium is a comprehensive reference
source that considers economic philosophy for extending economic
cognition, balancing economic efficiency and social equity, and
future interstellar economics. Covering key topics such as poverty,
fiscal policy, and macroeconomics, this reference work is ideal for
policymakers, government officials, business owners, economists,
managers, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners,
instructors, and students.
