      Book Description

      Written by a professional automotive sales and finance manager, Auto Buying vs Leasing is intended to help you save time and money by providing you with the knowledge and tools needed to negotiate the best deal. What to look for in new and pre-owned vehicles, how to prepare a currently owned vehicle for trade-in, the importance of dealing on price, plus step-by-step examples to take the mystery out of calculating lease or finance payments is just the beginning. By exploring this industry in depth, this book familiarizes you with industry terminology as it guides them through the ins and outs of cash payment, credit, and financing; after-market products, plus post-sale vehicle care and maintenance warranties. Final chapters caution readers about the potentially dark side of the auto business while offering useful advice to ensure a successful, dread-free car-buying experience.

      The book was very informative. I put it to practical use and saved myself $700 on my last leased vehicle. I have given the book to friends to use and they are thrilled with the results. It was very easy to read and understand.

                              Fundamental phenomena and laws of nature are related to symmetry and, accordingly, symmetry is one of science's basic concepts. Istvan Hargittai has written and edited extensively on the question of symmetry in chemistry, and he has here assembled some very interesting papers which deal with the question of symmetry as it relates to quasi- crystals, networks and their relationships within a fivefold symmetrical context.
                              This information will be useful to chemists (particulary organic and computational chemists) in creating new chemical structures for specific new uses.

                                This revised and updated edition emphasizes the physical concepts and applications of group theory rather than complex mathematics. User-friendly, it offers a simple approach to space groups, answering many frequently asked questions in detail. Features a new chapter on solid state, scores of diagrams and problems and more questions and answers. Mathematical proofs are included in the appendices.

                                3 out of 5 stars It's crap compared to Davison (which is out of print).......2001-03-13

                                Okay so Davisons out of print but it's so much better (and called Group Theory For Chemists)! This book is a bit badly laid out, doesn't explain things very well and is pretty much useless unless you already have at least a simple grasp of Group Theory. I don't know what awful libraries you lot in Cleveland have but this is certainly not a particularly good book.

                                In this text, Dr. Kettle presents the most lucent introduction available for students wishing to attain an understanding of Group Theory for chemical applications. The text is not overly mathematical in its presentation, setting it apart from the numerous other texts available on this subject. After having read this text, a student is amply able to understand discussions of group theory with respect to spectroscopy or otherwise.

                                        This book offers a modern treatment of diffusion in solids, covering such core topics as the transport of mass through the lattice of a crystalline solid. Part I of the book develops basic concepts in diffusion field theory and illustrates them with several applications, while Part II focuses on key solid-state principles needed to apply diffusion theory to real materials.

                                        5 out of 5 stars A fine modern book on a good old topic at last !!!.......2005-08-20

                                        To the curious minds of today and tomorrow:

                                        I've recently gotten this book as a present and read a few chapters of it to date. As I am well versed in diffusion, I presume it's ok for me to comment on the book without having fully read it.

                                        After reading a few chapters, and perusing over the entire volume, I was most impressed with Dr. Glickman's text. He's to be commended for having done a very fine job.

                                        Diffusion is inherently a very mathematical subject. Yet, without a proper presentation of the important aspects of the physical phenomena it is barrren and simply reduced to solving partial differential equations. Glickman's book, seems to succeed at providing the physical picture of diffusion with utmost clarity, while maintaining mathematical rigor. Furthermore, it is up to date and exposes the reader to recent developments in the study of diffusion phenomena. The treatment is primarily on the phenomenology of diffusion. If you fancy to learn more about diffusion kinetics, I recommend the book by Khachaturyan (Theory of Structural Phase Transformations in Solids).

                                        As someone who learned diffusion from Physical Metallurgy books, Shewmon's and Carslaw's books, I find Glickman's very refreshing for it's modern, rigorous and comprehensive.

                                        I highly recommend it.

                                        Cheers,

                                        Dr. E.

                                        ...but a coherent and organized text on diffusion.

                                        This is a complete text on the subject of diffusion. Similar to Shewmon's original "Diffusion in Solids", but Glicksman is more complete and modern. Glicksman is worth purchasing even if you already own Shewmon.

                                        5 out of 5 stars Finally, a complete explanation..........2000-04-06

                                        I have found that mathematically intensive books frequently leave out many of the steps that are critical to a complete understanding of the fundamental equations. Diffusion in Solids does a wonderful job of taking you from start to finish in each problem presented. It is a complete tome worth every dollar spent. Thanks Marty!
