The newest volume in the prestigious series The Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds, this work covers synthesis, reactions, properties, structure, physical chemistry and utility of monocyclic azepines.
Hydrocarbons and their transformations play major roles in chemistry as raw materials and sources of energy. Diminishing petroleum supplies, regulatory problems, and environmental concerns constantly challenge chemists to rethink and redesign the industrial applications of hydrocarbons. Written by Nobel Prize-winner George Olah and hydrocarbon expert Árpád Molnár, the completely revised and expand…
The only book series to summarize the latest progress on organic reaction mechanisms, Organic Reaction Mechanisms, 1981 surveys the development in understanding of the main classes of organic reaction mechanisms reported in the primary scientific literature in 1981. The 17th annual volume in this highly successful series highlights mechanisms of stereo-specific reactions. Reviews are compiled by a…
Location-Based Services (LBS) are the delivery of data and information services where the content of those services is tailored to the current location and context of a mobile user. This is a new and fast-growing technology sector incorporating GIS, wireless technologies, positioning systems and mobile human-computer interaction. Geo-Information (GI) Engineering is the design of dependably enginee…

В своем новаторском исследовании, посвященном истории Гражданской войны в США, Джоан Э. Кэшин изучает проблему борьбы за человеческие и природные ресурсы между мирными жителями и военными. Поначалу мирные жители с радостью помогали войскам Севера или Юга, однако война оказалась таким тяжелым испытанием, что вскоре южане, независимо от их политических взглядов, всецело сосредоточились на собственно…
«Китайский “авангард” 1979–1989 годов» – это критический обзор и анализ четырех наиболее значительных китайских авангардных художественных объединений конца 1970-х и 1980-х годов: «Звезды», «Северный художественный коллектив», «Общество “Пруд”» и «Сямэньские дадаисты». Книга включает интервью с участниками коллективов и дает подробное представление о культурно сложных и варьировавшихся в зависимос…
Опираясь на дошедшие до нас рукописи полифонической музыки XII–XIII веков, ученые долгое время предполагали, что музыкальные тексты Средневековья полностью фиксировались на бумаге, а не игрались по памяти. Анна Мария Буссе Бергер бросает вызов этим традиционным представлениям, сформированным исследователями немецкой школы начала ХХ века, которые подходили к средневековой музыке так, будто она ниче…
Эта книга посвящена периоду с 700 по 1500 год нашей эры, времени, когда мусульманскими странами и Китаем управляли могущественные династии; она описывает то, какие отношения существовали между двумя этими мирами до прихода европейцев. На основе тщательного анализа карт, географических источников и путевых заметок, оставленных китайскими и мусульманскими авторами, автор прослеживает развитие контак…

A practical guide to wastewater pathogens The fourth volume in Wiley's Wastewater Microbiology series, Wastewater Pathogens offers wastewater personnel a practical guide that is free of overly technical jargon. Designed especially for operators, the text provides straight facts on the biology of treatment as well as appropriate protective measures. Coverage includes: * An overview of relevant hist…
One approach to organic synthesis is retrosynthetic analysis. With this approach a chemist will start with the structure of their target molecule and progressively cut bonds to create simpler molecules. Reversing this process gives a synthetic route to the target molecule from simpler starting materials. This “disconnection” approach to synthesis is now a fundamental part of every organic synthesi…
