Physical Chemistry
Ever since Physical Chemistry was first published in 1913, it has remained a highly effective and relevant learning tool thanks to the efforts of physical chemists from all over the world. Each new edition has benefited from their suggestions and expert advice. The result of this remarkable tradition is now in your hands.
Physical Chemistry for the Life Sciences
From thermodynamics to molecular interactions, Physical Chemistry for the Life Sciences, Third Edition, explains how the principles of physical chemistry apply to the processes of life. Offering worked examples and multiple case studies throughout, students are supported to master even the most complex concepts and how they apply in biological contexts, while acquiring key problem-solving and mathematical skills. Directly addressing the main challenges faced by students, this book's pedagogically rich approach provides an accessible and holistic guide to the subject. The extended scope of this new edition includes the essential techniques that can be used to characterize biological systems, including biochemical spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, and spectrometry.
Proselytes of a New Nation
Proselytes of a New Nation analyzes questions such as: Why did many Muslims convert to Greek Orthodoxy? What did conversion mean to the converts? What were their economic, social, and professional profiles? And how did conversion affect the converts' relationships with Muslim relatives in Greece and the Ottoman Empire? Stefanos Katsikas maintains that in the era of nationalism--when Sharia law and the Ottoman legal system could keep converts from inheriting family property; when converts were regarded as either "traitors" or "heroes"--conversion more drastically affected the social fabric of communities and more often led to violence and conflict.
Islam and Nationalism in Modern Greece, 1821-1940
Islam and Nationalism in Modern Greece, 1821-1940 provides an empirically rich account of the Greek state formation and territorial expansion in areas containing Muslim communities. Katsikas examines how state rule influenced the development of the Muslim population's collective identity as a minority and affected Muslim relations not only with the Greek authorities but other ethnic and religious groups such as Jews and Orthodox Christians.
Molecular Modeling of Nucleic Acids
Covering numerous topics in modeling nucleic acids, this volume looks at the role of various spectroscopic methods, simulations of molecular dynamics using particle mesh methods, and dynamic and genetic algorithms for predicting RNA secondary structure. It also covers the thermodynamics of nucleic acid folding and three-dimensional structure prediction based on sequence information.
Biological and Biomedical Infrared Spectroscopy
Although infrared spectroscopy has been applied with success to the study of important biological and biomedical processes for many years, key advances in this vibrant technique have led to its increasing use, ranging from characterization of individual macromolecules (DNA, RNA, lipids, proteins) to human tissues, cells and their components. Infrared spectroscopy thus has a significant role to play in the analysis of the vast number of genes and proteins being identified by the various genomic sequencing projects. Whilst this book gives an overview of the field, it highlights more recent developments, such as the use of bright synchrotron radiation for recording infrared spectra, the development of two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy and the ability to record infrared spectra at ultra fast speeds.

The History of Greece
This complete history of Greece documents ancient times to the present, giving specific attention to its emergence as a modern European nation after the destruction, disease, and death Greece suffered during World War II and the subsequent civil war. Modern Greece started as a monarchy in 1832, with just a fraction of the land it now encompasses. The nation of Greece finally forged its identity in the 19th and 20th centuries after emerging from 400 years of Ottoman domination. This book traces the development of Greece from the Minoan civilization of Crete to modern times, telling the story of how Greece added territory and experienced fierce growing pains—including coups, dictatorships, depressions, enormous influxes of immigrants, and wars—before evolving into today's modern democratic state. The History of Greece provides both an overview of Greece's early history as well as an examination of the difficulties that emerged in 2009 and 2010, such as its recent financial problems and social unrest. Quotes from Greek politicians, scholars, poets, and ordinary citizens are included to communicate Greece's national character.
