Sir George Porter (Lord Porter of Luddenham) was one of the most highly regarded and well known scientists in Britain. He was appointed Director of the Royal Institution in 1966, awarded a Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1967, and was the only Director of the Royal Institution to later become President of the Royal Society (1985-1990). Porter had a marvellous gift for communicating his infectious enthusiasm for science, and as President of the Royal Society, he worked hard to improve the status of science, and employed his communication skills ably in the defence of British science under attack from inadequate government funding, of which he was fiercely critical.It was for his work on flash pho...

Progress in Reaction Kinetics, Volume 6 covers various aspects of kinetics. It presents quantitative data on the reaction rates observed in hydrocarbon-active nitrogen systems, noble gases, acids and bases, and rare gas metastable atoms. Comprised of six chapters, the volume begins by discussing the reactions of nitrogen atoms with hydrocarbons. It then illustrates the development of flash protolysis techniques and moves on to chemi-ionization and chemical applications of rare gases. The text concludes by describing salt and medium effects in ionic reactions in aqueous solutions. Students and scientists who wish to increase their understanding of reactions occurring in various chemical reaction systems will find this volume invaluable.
Harold Longston, a confident, educated, successful businessman, worships neither money, nor power, and maybe that's his charm. No, he desires something far far greater, something incalculably more powerful, something without which everything else may be counted as meaningless. He seeks that true indomitable love, the extraordinary love that is, simply put, beyond passion. Harold knows of that place, that rare place, where true lover's reign in a state of perpetual beauty. Despite being rarely seen, onlookers recognize it easily and seldom mistake it for anything except love and all its maturity. A single force, or maybe several, however, seems to block Harold from experiencing the love beyon...
