Chemical Water and Wastewater Treatment VI
For the ninth Gothenburg Symposium time design and operation engineers as well as supervising and funding administrators in chemical water and waste water treatment, have come together to exchange ideas, experiences and personal views on issues of water and waste water management. While the main thrust of past symposia was in the description of the technological know-how of existing chemical unit-operations in water technology this ninth symposium focuses in addition on aspects of overall energy and mass flux analyses, the strive for more and more sustainable solutions (not only in technological turns) and public private partnership in all areas of water management. As the symposium in its effort to address also different geographical areas and therefore different water problems moved to Istanbul in Turkey a special effort was made in developing a platform for industrial water management.
A Gangster's Paradise - Saratoga Springs from Prohibition to Kefauver
During the era of the American gangster, Saratoga Springs was a virtual "Gangster's Paradise". From Prohibition to Kefauver hoodlums, gunmen and gamblers had the run of the town. With public officials accepting graft on a grand scale, and police looking the other way, a who's who of organized crime made Saratoga Springs their playground. From Charles "Lucky" Luciano and Myer Lansky, to Joe Adonis and Frank Costello, the Spa hosted them all. In his follow up book to ALL THE LAW IN THE WORLD WON'T STOP THEM, retired Saratoga Springs police Chief Greg Veitch tells the stories of the exploits of both home-grown, and nationally known gangsters at the Spa. This historical account of Saratoga Springs between Prohibition and Kefauver takes the reader back to a time when Saratoga was, indeed, A Gangster's Paradise.
Kids!
Childhood. Think about the meaning of this word for us today as we near the end of the 20th century: a time to grow, a time to play, a time to learn, an idyllic time. Did the notion of childhood elicit the same thoughts for people in 18th- and 19th-century America? Indeed, was there even such a concept as childhood then, or is it instead a 20th-century invention that we have come to take for granted? These are difficult questions, in part because there never has been one universal understanding of childhood. How earlier generations viewed life s first stage depended on such factors as where they lived, their occupations, and their legal status as free, indentured, or enslaved Americans. One ...
Philosophy of Action: An Introduction
Philosophy of Action provides an accessible and contemporary introduction to the analytic philosophy of action. Opening with a systematic overview of the main philosophical theories on the nature of human agency, subsequent chapters introduce and discuss the main themes in the traditional and contemporary philosophy of action. Are the reasons for which we act the causes of our movements? What is the nature of intention and intentional action? How does the philosophy of action inform theorizing about autonomy, free will, and moral responsibility? This up-to-date introduction concludes with an overview of recent empirical research on conscious control and intentional action, discussing the philosophical significance of findings from psychology and cognitive neuroscience. Featuring chapter overviews and summaries, open questions for further study and a list of further readings, Philosophy of Action is a valuable resource for undergraduates as well as postgraduates and researchers.

Decanter Centrifuge Handbook
Scope of Publication A reference work for process designers and users of decanters, this book aims to bridge the information gap in this field - that between academic theory promoted in student textbooks and case study data in manufacturers sales literature. Design It includes information on design and specification, preparing the reader to select and correctly size equipment. Purchase As a design or project engineer working with vendors to make final equipment selection, this work provides the readers with the full facts before they start talking to product vendors. Supply In an environment of industry consolidation, the handbook allows you to track suppliers old and new, providing a basis on which users can find the new relevant company for the parts/service he/she wishes to purchase. Operation Once an equipment purchase is made, the user needs to be made aware of how to optimally operate decanters. The Decanter Centrifuge Handbook covers relevant (process) operating issues such as instrumentation and control and the use of flocculents.
