The Painted Hall Collection
A curse binds the City of Winter and the Dragon's prophecy holds the key to breaking it. But will a poor fisherman from the South have the means to fulfil the prophecy? Or will the foreignness of the North itself repel him and his efforts? The Painted Hall Collection is a series of four short, old-school fairy-tales designed to open your eyes to wonder. Each story can be purchased separately as a single, or together in this compilation. --- *When Winds Blow Cold* Go north, little human. Go north until the winds blow cold and you walk on water. Go north, and there you will find her. With the Dragon's prophecy ringing in his ears, Danis travels from town to town, seeking a wife. But at every s...
Asphaltenes
During the upgrading of heavy petroleum, asphaltene is the most problematic impurity since it is the main cause of catalyst deactivation and sediments formation. Exploring many aspects related to asphaltenes composition and conversion, Asphaltenes: Chemical Transformation during Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils highlights the various changes that thes
Metal-Organic Frameworks in Biomedical and Environmental Field
This book joins an international and interdisciplinary group of leading experts on the biomedical, energy and environmental applications of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs). The resulting overview covers everything from the environmentally friendly and scale up synthesis of MOFs, their application in green energy generation and storage, and water purification to their use as drug delivery systems, biosensors, and their association with relevant macromolecules (genes, enzymes). This book is focused on the interest of MOFs in applications such as the leading –edge environmental (energy-related) and biomedical fields. The potential of MOFs in these areas is currently progressing at a fast pace, since the wide possibilities that MOFs offer in terms of composition, topology, incorporation of active species (in their porosity, on their external surface or within the framework), and post-synthetic modifications, among others. The aim here is to provide future research goals that emphasize relevant nuances to this class of materials as a whole.
Metal-Organic Framework Composites
Because of their nanoporous structures and ultra-high surface areas Metal-Organic Framework Composites (MOFs) are very interesting materials. The book focusses on the following applications: gas capture and storage, especially molecular hydrogen storage; performance enhancement of Li-ion batteries; gas separation, nano-filtration, ionic sieving, water treatment, and catalysis; sustainable renewable energy resources, electrochemical capacitors, including supercapacitors, asymmetric supercapacitors and hybrid supercapacitors; biomedical disciplines including drug delivery, theranostics; biological detection and imaging; nanoparticle photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT). Keywords: MOF Materials, Hydrogen Storage, Renewable Energy Applications, Lithium Batteries, MOF-Quantum Dots, Clean Energy, Nanoporous MOFs, Supercapacitors, Therapeutic Applications, Biosensing, Bioimaging, Phototherapy of Cancer, Gas Separation, Nano-filtration, Ionic Sieving, Water Treatment, Drug Delivery, Theranostics; Nanoparticle Photosensitizers, Photodynamic Therapy (PDT), Photothermal Therapy (PTT).
Looking After the Ashes: Old Wives' Tales, Taboos; Supernatural and Childhood Superstitions
If you eat while lying down, you will turn into a snake. If you don't polish off all the rice on your plate you will marry a man full of pimples and pockmarks. Looking After the Ashes is a semi-biographical fiction of Kopi Soh's childhood stories. Growing up in a large extended Taoist influenced Peranakan family filled with strong women, Soh hears these words of 'wisdom' daily. She used to live in a world where clipping finger nails at night was strictly forbidden, pointing at the moon would result in one's ears getting chopped off, and children were forced to stay indoors during sundown for fear of collision with evil forces. A world where mental disorders and illnesses were believed to be caused by malevolent spirits. Talisman, mediums and fortune tellers were a part of everyday life.
Tinhead City, KL
In this dystopian KL, a faceless corporation manages the city and hope is as toxic as the air. Abandoned by his father, 19-year-old Zachary Ti learns to fend for himself in the new, gritty world of KL, a district overrun by tinheads that are issuing capital punishment for the slightest of offences. When he accidentally kills two of the cyborgs, Zach is forced to join an elite rebel faction whose methods are more than questionable. Soon he is sent back into the fray of KL—but this time he is a wanted man.
Metal-Organic Frameworks for Biomedical Applications
Metal-Organic Frameworks for Biomedical Applications is a comprehensive, authoritative reference that offers a substantial and complete treatment of published results that have yet to be critically reviewed. It offers a summary of current research and provides in-depth understanding of the role of metal-organic frameworks in biomedical engineering. The title consists of twenty-two chapters presented by leading international researchers in the field. Chapters are arranged by target-application in biomedical engineering, allowing medical and pharmaceutic specialists to translate current materials and engineering science on metal-organic frameworks into their work.

The Woman Destroyed
One of the most influential thinkers of her generation draws us into the lives of three women, all past their first youth, all facing unexpected crises in these three “immensely intelligent stories about the decay of passion” (The Sunday Herald Times). Suffused with de Beauvoir’s remarkable insights into women, The Woman Destroyed gives us a legendary writer at her best. Includes "The Age of Discretion," "The Monologue," and "The Woman Destroyed." "Witty, immensely adroit...These three women are believable individuals presented with a wry mixture of sympathy and exasperation." —The Atlantic
