Getaway 21 Years of African Travel Writing
This wonderful collection of travel writing captures the very best of Getaway's articles over the past 21 years of travel, exploration and adventure.
Taken In Africa
This Southern African adventure tells the story of Freddy, a young English business man, who embarks on a rescue mission to save the lives of his mother and uncle who have been abducted and held to ransom by members of the people trafficking and criminal underworld now so prevalent in this part of the African continent. The story starts when he unearths some papers in an old suitcase once belonging to his late grandfather leading him to take a trip out to South Africa where his mother and uncle recently moved to. However, on arriving, he is faced with the fact that his relatives have been taken and it is now down to him, with the help of some trusted friends he makes, to rescue them. The backdrops to this story are the beautiful landscapes of Southern Africa set against the trafficking in both people and drugs. There are blood-thirsty and vicious scenes vividly described as Freddy and his friends struggle bravely to achieve a just conclusion to the story.
Luminescence
The aim of this book is to give readers a broad review of topical worldwide advancements in theoretical and experimental facts, instrumentation and practical applications erudite by luminescent materials and their prospects in dealing with different types of luminescence like photoluminescence, electroluminescence, thermo-luminescence, triboluminescence, bioluminescence design and applications. The additional part of this book deals with the dynamics, rare-earth ions, photon down-/up-converting materials, luminescence dating, lifetime, bioluminescence microscopical perspectives and prospects towards the basic research or for more advanced applications. This book is divided into four main sec...

Growth of Antimony on Copper. A Scanning Tunneling Microscopy Study
This study investigates the Copper(111) – Antimony (Sb) system which is characterized by a complex interplay between adsorbate interactions and adsorbate substrate interactions which manifest through self-assembly processes. Surface sensitive techniques such as Low Energy Electron Diffraction and Auger Electron Spectroscopy were utilized to determine the substrate cleanliness prior to the growth of monolayer Sb coverage. The surface chemical reactivity on an atom-by-atom basis of the Cu sample surface was studied by current imaging tunneling spectroscopy. The use of surface sensitive techniques in studying the surface alloy in question allows for more precise statements to be made about the surface structure of the system at various temperatures. Based on the experimental results, a comprehensive study of the adsorption and segregation behavior of Sb on Cu(111), including the mechanisms for phase formation at the atomic scale, is presented in this study.
