Concerted Organic and Bio-Organic Mechanisms

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Williams, Andrew, PUBLISHER: CRC Press, The concept of concerted mechanisms was formulated nearly 90 years ago and virtually all general organic chemistry texts mention it. Until now, however, no monograph has addressed the concept explicitly. Over the last two decades, substantial advancements made in the development of precise methods for elucidating concerted mechanisms have heightened the need for a comprehensive text on the subject. Concerted Organic and Bio-organic Mechanisms gathers the salient materials related to this emerging field into a single text. It sets forth the precise definition of concertedness-along with working sub-definitions-and describes rigorous experimental tools chemists can use to diagnose the existence or absence of concerted mechanisms. Advances in our understanding of concerted mechanisms lead to further questions. Concerted Organic and Bio-organic Mechanisms provides the background and the tools researchers need to consider these important questions and further advance the frontiers of reactions, synthesis, and catalysis.

What Has Jerusalem to Do with Beijing?: Biblical

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Yeo, Khiok-Khng, PUBLISHER: Trinity Press International, K.K. Yeo is a promising young voice from Asia whose discernment of the relevance of the gospel to cultures and current socio-political realities in that part of the world is welcome and needed for the West's understanding of the East, and even for the East's understanding of itself. His studies gathered here range from exploration of the philosophical structure of eastern Buddhist cultures to present-day political realities in Malaysia and China. The book is divided into three parts. Part I examines the methods of cross-cultural hermeneutics. Part II represents a dialogue with perennial themes in Chinese culture: Yin and Yang in Genesis and Exodus; the Ming of Tien ("will of God') in Amos and Confucius; the Li and Jen "torah and spirit" in Romans. Part III applies biblical messages to current Chinese situations, including suffering, oppressive acts such as Tienanmen Square, and the role of women. Acquista Ora

Environmental Contaminants in Food

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Moffat, Moffat / Moffat, Colin / Moffat, PUBLISHER: Blackwell Publishers, Written by respected scientists from around the world, Environmental Contaminants in Food presents examples of research activities devoted to ensuring that the input of contaminants into foods is minimized. Chapters detail methods of modern instrumental analysis with specific analytes, with risk assessment, and, uniquely, with sensory assessment and tainting. An essential text for food producers, quality assurance personnel, and government agencies Ultimately the source or cause of food contaminants is of relatively minor relevance to consumers, who are more concerned with acute or chronic toxicological effects of exposure to a contaminant. In contrast, food producers and government agencies should strive to minimize environmental contamination of food by studying the uptake, depuration, and movement of contaminants through the food web; by monitoring food products and the environment; and by establishing protocols and legislation to minimize exposure of end users to contaminants in their food. This volume is directed at food scientists and technologists; ingredients suppliers; quality assurance personnel; analytical chemists and public analysts; and chemists and microbiologists working within environmental health laboratories.

Market Structure and Innovation

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kamien, Morton I., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, Technical advance requires resources and is motivated by the quest for profits; therefore, the rate and direction of advance is determined by the economic system. Recognition of this fact has focused attention on the performance of the market economy in the allocation of resources to technical advance, and the consequent body of research is surveyed and synthesised in this book. The theories of market structure and innovation proposed by Schumpeter, Galbraith, Arrow, Schmookler, Scherer, Mansfield, Phillips, Barzel, Kamien and Schwartz, Loury, Nelson and Winter, Grabowski, Dasgupta and Stiglitz, and others are presented in an integrated form. These theories deal with the nature of competition, the incentives to innovate and the pace of innovative activity under different market structures, and the existence of a market structure that yields the most rapid rate of innovation. In addition, the findings of seventy empirical studies dealing with various facets of the microeconomics of technical innovation are presented. The book is designed to be accessible to economists working in a variety of situations - in universities, business and government - and who are concerned with questions of technical innovation. It is also suitable for senior-level undergraduates and first year graduate students approaching the subject in a comprehensive way for the first time.

The Theory and Philosophy of Organizations: Critical Issues

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hassard, John / Pym, Denis, PUBLISHER: Routledge, "The Theory and Philosophy of Organisations" assesses and analyzes the assumptions upon which our understanding of organizations is based and in doing so aims to redirect the ways in which organizational research is conceived and executed. Contributions to the volume emphasize how all approaches to the study of organizations are influenced by deep metatheoretical assumptions about the nature of science and society. It is argued that these differences create a spectrum of valid perspectives and methods, and the book outlines how conceptual problems in the field have given rise to innovative forms of empirical enquiry such as symbolism, postmodernism, ethnomethodology and structuralism. Criticizing the conservatism which has characterized much of the work in this field, the authors offers this range of methods as a starting point for obtaining richer and more grounded explanations of organizations.
