battles, uncertain of where to turn, the boy's loyal toys look to
have little hope. Could these lost toys be defeated before the
inevitable war has even truly begun? Loyalties are questioned,
soldiers are lost, and dark secrets revealed, in this, the
penultimate chapter of The Stuff of Legend saga, The Stuff of
Legend 5: A Call to Arms.
"This gem of a book provides the student with a clear, concise, and
compelling introduction to the deceptively simple but vitally
important topic of thermodynamics. It involves the relationships
between heat, work, temperature, energy, and states of matter, and
touches virtually every field of science." -Richard N. Zare,
Stanford University "This book introduces students to the Boltzmann
factor in an exceptionally clear and concise way. This is a key
topic for students studying any branch of modern science. Most
importantly, this text adds significantly to our understanding of
both the simplicity and the importance of the Boltzmann factor."
-Graham Hutchings, FRS, Cardiff University This vibrant book takes
the reader on an exciting journey through much of physical sciences
by explaining the wide ranging influence of a single equation, the
Boltzmann factor. This simple relation provides the key to
understanding a remarkable variety of phenomena ranging from, for
example, the behavior of atmospheric pressure at altitude, the
appearance of molecular spectra and the factors that determine
chemical equilibrium. Compact and clearly written book, this book,
which requires no advanced mathematical skills, will enrich and
deepen students' understanding of the molecular sciences. The
insight it provides will enable them to appreciate the elegant
unity that underlies the subject.

Michael Redgrave stars in this classic adaptation of Terence
Rattigan's play. Public schoolmaster Crocker-Harris (Redgrave) has
become a bitter, disillusioned man. Stuck in a loveless marriage
with a wife who openly cheats on him, he has long since lost the
enthusiasm he once showed for his career and his pupils. 'The
Crock', as he is known within the school, has become a figure of
disdain among the students whose life he has made a misery. When
ill health forces him to resign his long-standing post, a simple
act of kindness from one boy has a profound effect on the seemingly
heartless master.
This widely acclaimed text, now in its sixth edition and translated
into many languages, continues to present a clear, simple and
concise introduction to chemical thermodynamics. An examination of
equilibrium in the everyday world of mechanical objects provides a
starting point for an accessible account of the factors that
determine equilibrium in chemical systems. This straightforward
approach leads students to a thorough understanding of the basic
principles of thermodynamics, which are then applied to a wide
range of physical chemical systems. The book also discusses the
problems of non-ideal solutions and the concept of activity, and
provides an introduction to the molecular basis of thermodynamics.
Over six editions, the views of teachers of the subject and their
students have been incorporated. Reference to the phase rule has
been included in this edition and the notation has been revised to
conform to current IUPAC recommendations. Students taking courses
in thermodynamics will continue to find this popular book an
excellent introductory text.
This elegant book provides a student-friendly introduction to the
subject of physical chemistry. It is by the author of the very
successful Basic Chemical Thermodynamics and is written in the same
well-received popular style. It is concise and more compact than
standard textbooks on the subject and emphasises the two important
topics underpinning the subject: quantum mechanics and the second
law of thermodynamics. Both topics are challenging to students
because they focus on uncertainty and probability. The book
explains these fundamental concepts clearly and shows how they
offer the key to understanding a wide range of chemical phenomena
including atomic and molecular spectra, the structure and
properties of solids, liquids and gases, chemical equilibrium and
the rates of chemical reactions.This revised edition has enabled
improvements and corrections to be made.
This widely acclaimed text, now in its fifth edition and translated
into many languages, continues to present a clear, simple and
concise introduction to chemical thermodynamics. An examination of
equilibrium in the everyday world of mechanical objects provides
the starting point for an accessible account of the factors that
determine equilibrium in chemical systems. This straightforward
approach leads students to a thorough understanding of the basic
principles of thermodynamics, which are then applied to a wide
range of physico-chemical systems. The book also discusses the
problems of non-ideal solutions and the concept of activity, and
provides an introduction to the molecular basis of thermodynamics.
Over five editions, the views of teachers of the subject and their
students have been incorporated. The result is a little more rigour
in specifying the dimensions within logarithmic expressions, the
addition of more worked examples and the inclusion of a simple
treatment of the molecular basis of thermodynamics. Students on
courses in thermodynamics will continue to find this popular book
an excellent introductory text.
The exploration for and production of oil and gas to meet our
nation's energy needs also results in the production of large
quantities of water as a by-product. This water, which is produced
from wells during exploration and production, is known as "produced
water." Because produced water may contain a variety of
contaminants, such as salts and minerals, it is often considered to
be a waste stream that oil and gas producers must appropriately
manage and treat before this water can be disposed of. If it is not
appropriately managed or treated, the contaminants present in
produced water discharged from oil and gas operations may threaten
human health and the environment. This book explores the
inextricable link between energy production and water with a focus
on what is known about the volume and quality of produced water
from oil and gas production; what practices are generally used to
manage and treat produced water; and how the management of produced
water is regulated at the federal level and in selected states.

John Mills stars in this gentle musical comedy portraying life in
the 1950s British classroom. Mr Dingle (Mills) is a history and
music teacher at the Angel Hill School. His approachability and
enthusiasm in running the school jazz band have led to him being
well-loved and respected by his students, who go up in arms when it
turns out that the well-meaning but traditionalist and
authoritarian headmaster Mr Frome (Cecil Parker) plans to replace
him and close down the band.
This book examines John Locke as a theorist of migration,
immigration, and the movement of peoples. It outlines the contours
of the public discourse surrounding migration in the seventeenth
century and situates Locke's in-depth involvement in these debates.
The volume presents a variety of undercurrents in Locke's writing -
his ideas on populationism, naturalization, colonization and the
right to withdrawal, the plight of refugees, and territorial rights
- which have great import in present-day debates about migration.
Departing from the popular extant literature that sees Locke
advocating for a strong right to exclude foreigners, the author
proposes a Lockean theory of immigration that recognizes the
fundamental right to emigrate, thus, catering to an age wrought
with terrorism, xenophobia and economic inequality. A unique and
compelling contribution, the volume will be of great interest to
scholars and researchers of political theory, political philosophy,
history of international politics, international relations,
international political economy, public policy, seventeenth century
English history, migration and citizenship studies, and moral
philosophy.
Understanding Third World Politics gives a comprehensive and
critical introduction to the main theories that have been used to
understand political change in developing countries. It examines
the variety of political institutions and processes in the Third
World and critical evaluates the major explanatory frameworks used
by political scientists to understand them. The discussion is
supported throughout by a wide range of topical case studies from
around the world - including features on class in Brazil and
democracy in India. The book concludes by considering the political
instability that so frequently plagues poor countries and by
identifying the conditions required to establish democratic
stability. The fourth edition has been revised and updated
throughout to take account of key political developments, including
foreign interventions in the Middle East, state repression in North
Africa, and the secession of South Sudan. Engagingly written, this
text offers a clear and theoretically rigorous introduction to the
politics of the Third World.
