This book will provide the most recent knowledge and advances in Sample Preparation Techniques for Separation Science. Everyone working in a laboratory must be familiar with the basis of these technologies, and they often involve elaborate and time-consuming procedures that can take up to 80% of the total analysis time. Sample preparation is an essential step in most of the analytical methods for environmental and biomedical analysis, since the target analytes are often not detected in their in-situ forms, or the results are distorted by interfering species. In the past decade, modern sample preparation techniques have aimed to comply with green analytical chemistry principles, leading to simplification, miniaturization, easy manipulation of the analytical devices, low costs, strong reduction or absence of toxic organic solvents, as well as low sample volume requirements. Modern Sample Preparation Approaches for Separation Science also provides an invaluable reference tool for analytical chemists in the chemical, biological, pharmaceutical, environmental, and forensic sciences.

The train is off the rails! What is wrong with the train cars? What are the train cars? And how do we get them back on track? Each train car represents a different topic. We examine each train car to understand the topic and then figure out whether to abandon the train car or see if it can be useful again. In part 1, some of the topics we examine include: What is logic? Is there objective truth? What about objective moral values? Can we know the world around us? Are we good people? Do we have free will? Are any of the four major ethical codes adequate? In part 2, we examine the following questions: Does God exist? Is there any evidence for his existence? What are the implications of the evidence? Is Jesus a myth? Can we trust the biographies of him in the New Testament? How does Jesus solve the sin issue? What is wrong with certain aspects of the current church? There are many challenging concepts that are examined in this book. It is not for the fainthearted; there are many claims in this book that challenge the current status quo.
