An Introduction to Electrochemical Engineering
Electrochemical processes have an ever-increasing importance in a number of industrial activities. As this book shows, the evolution that has occurred since the start of the 20th century is astonishing and covers a broad range of activities. In spite of this evolution, university texts on industrial electrochemistry are scant, mostly addressed to graduate or post-graduate students and usually focused on specific aspects of the wide variety of electrochemistry applications. Moreover, most of these texts skip over the fundamental principles that are involved in electrode processes and, then, students learn to employ a variety of techniques without mastering their foundations. This book, rather...
Apogee of Empire
Once Europe's supreme maritime power, Spain by the mid-eighteenth century was facing fierce competition from England and France. England, in particular, had successfully mustered the financial resources necessary to confront its Atlantic rivals by mobilizing both aristocracy and merchant bourgeoisie in support of its imperial ambitions. Spain, meanwhile, remained overly dependent on the profits of its New World silver mines to finance both metropolitan and colonial imperatives, and England's naval superiority constantly threatened the vital flow of specie. When Charles III ascended the Spanish throne in 1759, then, after a quarter-century as ruler of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, Spain an...

The Land Is Mine
After their expulsion from Spain in 1492, Sephardi Jews such as Isaac Abravanel, Abraham Saba, and Isaac Arama wrote biblical commentaries that stressed the significance of land. They interpreted Judaism as a tradition whose best expression and ultimate fulfillment took place away from cities and in rural settings. Iberian-Jewish authors rooted their moral teachings in an ethical treatment of the natural world, elucidating ancient agricultural laws and scrutinizing the physical context and built environments of Bible stories. The Land Is Mine asks what inspired this and suggests that the answer lies not in timeless exegetical or theological trends, but in the material realities of late medie...
Genetic Disease Discovery and Therapeutics
Genetic Disease Discovery and Therapeutics presents information on the methods used to determine how specific gene defects influence pathology and phenotype and to review novel therapeutic approaches designed for the treatment of specific genetic and genomic disorders.This book investigates methodologies applied to the characterization of downstream functional effects of specific gene mutations associated with altered phenotypes and clinical disease. It documents evidence of how specific mutations influence pathology and lead to disease manifestations. This book also reviews information on therapeutic approaches that could potentially be applied in diseases due to gene defects. Genetic Disea...
Sixteenth-Century Spanish Bookstore
An article pub. in 1952 on early foreign printers in Burgos mentioned the existence in that city’s archives of a 1556 document concerning the shop of the printer-bookseller, Juan de Junta, an Italian by birth, son of the famous Florentine publisher Filippo di Giunta. The document is a legal contract written in 1556 by the notary Pedro de Espinosa for the lease of the Junta bookstore and print-shop in Burgos and also contains “a very interesting inventory of everything which was in the shop in that year.” Few contemporary documents give us as much primary evidence for the kinds of materials a 16th-cent. Spanish bookstore contained as this document does, for it provides the titles of all the books in the stock, the number of copies of each title, the costs of the individual books, in most cases the format of the book, and, in many cases, the city of publication or the name of the publisher.
