Produced by the North American Anarchist Studies Network (NAASN), and edited by Jeff Shantz and pj lilley, this volume comprises papers from NAASN's 5th Conference [La Red Norteamericana de Estudios Anarquistas / Le Reseau Nord-Americain d'etudes Anarchistes]. Anarchism is experiencing a remarkable resurgence in the new millennium. Not only active in the streets across Turtle Island, growing interest in anarchist scholarship is perhaps unprecedented. This is reflected in the development of the North American Anarchist Studies Network (NAASN). Drawn from papers presented at the fifth NAASN conference in Surrey (on Coast Salish Territories), this collection shows the vitality of contemporary a...
Interest in water will continue to grow for a long time to come. It will continue to spread over a large number of disciplines and technologies. Research into water in all its aspects has become so diverse that even those with a direct interest find it impossible to keep up with the original literature beyond a very limited range. On the other hand, scientists want to keep in touch with a wide spectrum of basic and applied research on water and the role played by aqueous solvents in physical, chemical, biological, technological and environmental processes. Water Science Reviews contains three or four critical reviews of the type previously published in the seven volume work Water - A Comprehensive Treatise. Some reviews update previously published topics while others feature areas of Water Sciences that have never yet been reviewed. A common focus is the central position adopted by water in the systems and processes described.
This anthology of essays by a group of distinguished scholars investigates post-1945 city planning in Britain; not from a technical viewpoint, but as a polemical, visual and educational phenomenon, shifting the focus of scholarly interest towards the often-neglected emotional and aesthetic aspects of post-war planning. Each essay is grounded in original archival research and sheds new light on this critical era in the development of modern town planning. This collection is a valuable resource for architectural, social and urban historians, as well as students and researchers offering new insights into the development of the mid-twentieth century city.
Since the first edition of Biochemical Thermodynamics in 1979, the application of thermodynamics to the study of biochemical and biological systems has continued to advance and has given rise to an expanding body of literature. These advances have arisen largely for two reasons. Firstly, the development of more sensitive and more versatile calorimetric equipment has extended the range of direct enthalpy measurements to smaller heat effects in a wide variety of systems. Secondly, rapid and significant advances have taken place in the field of molecular biology. Such developments have prompted the design of new and sophisticated experiments and also led to a better understanding of thermodynamic data in molecular terms. As with the first edition, the volume starts with studies on peptides and model systems and passes on to macromolecules and systems of increasing complexity. Apart from the sections dealing with basic thermodynamics most of the chapters are completely new and relate to literature which has appeared since the first edition.
