                    From the supplier: Employees of banks or other service industries who inconvenience their customers should not be blamed but the management who hired and trained them. This is because management often confuses the work of their employees with their real job. By work is meant the task that contribute to the overall process of a firm such as a bank. The job, on, the other hand, connotes satisfying customers. Often, employees get the work done but leave unsatisfied customers because of the training they have received from their firms' management.

                          Book Description

                          In the words of those who trod the void and others based at mission control, here are more than fifty of the greatest true stories of suborbital, orbital, and deep space exploration. From Apollo 8’s first view of a tortured landscape of craters on the “dark side” of the Moon to a series of cliff-hanger crises aboard space station Mir, The Mammoth Book of Space Exploration and Disasters offers moments of extraordinary heroic achievement as well as episodes of terrible human cost. High points include the classic, nail-biting account of abandoning Apollo 13 on the way to the Moon and Jerry Linenger’s panic attack during a space walk where he was “just out there dangling.”

                            Book Description

                            Books Dealing with the mechanisms of enzymatic reactions were written a generation ago. They included volumes entitled Bioorganic Mechanisms, I and II by T.C. Bruice and S.J. Benkovic, published in 1965, the volume entitled Catalysis in Chemistry and Enzymology by W.P. Jencks in 1969, and the volume entitled Enzymatic Reaction Mechanisms by C.T. Walsh in 1979. The Walsh book was based on the course taught by W.P. Jencks and R.H. Abeles at Brandeis University in the 1960's and 1970's. By the late 1970's, much more could be included about the structures of enzymes and the kinetics and mechanisms of enzymatic reactions themselves, and less emphasis was placed on chemical models. Walshs book was widely used in courses on enzymatic mechanisms for many years. Much has happened in the field of mechanistic enzymology in the past 15 to 20 years. Walshs book is both out-of-date and out-of-focus in todays world of enzymatic mechanisms. There is no longer a single volume or a small collection of volumes to which students can be directed to obtain a clear understanding of the state of knowledge regarding the chemicals mechanisms by which enzymes catalyze biological reactions. There is no single volume to which medicinal chemists and biotechnologists can refer on the subject of enzymatic mechanisms. Practitioners in the field have recognized a need for a new book on enzymatic mechanisms for more than ten years, and several, including Walsh, have considered undertaking to modernize Walshs book. However, these good intentions have been abandoned for one reason or another. The great size of the knowledge base in mechanistic enzymology has been a deterrent. It seems too large a subject for a single author, and it is difficult for several authors to coordinate their work to mutual satisfaction. This text by Perry A. Frey and Adrian D. Hegeman accomplishes this feat, producing the long-awaited replacement for Walshs classic text.

                              This book covers chemical kinetics from the working chemists' point of view. Competing books present a more theoretical presentation of kinetics. This book is a "how to" book for designing experiments, analyzing, and critiquing them. Chemical Kinetics and Reaction Mechanisms also prepares chemists to devise experiments to test different hypotheses. A diskette that helps students solve end-of-chapter problems is packaged with each text.

                              3 out of 5 stars Good intro book.......2000-12-06

                              Espenson's book is ok. It's a little difficult to read at times, but covers the basics fairly well. More references would be useful. A good introductory book.

                              4 out of 5 stars Generally a good book.......2000-11-30

                              This book has a lot of basic stuff in it. It is rather easy to read and simplistic. It is a good introductory kinetics book, but be prepared to take advantage of other resources in order to accomplish your kinetics task. Not necessarily a great reference book for your graduate studies.

                                Book Description

                                In a chemical system with many chemical species several questions can be asked: what species react with other species: in what temporal order: and with what results? These questions have been asked for over one hundred years about simple and complex chemical systems, and the answers constitute the macroscopic reaction mechanism. In Determination of Complex Reaction Mechanisms authors John Ross, Igor Schreiber, and Marcel Vlad present several systematic approaches for obtaining information on the causal connectivity of chemical species, on correlations of chemical species, on the reaction pathway, and on the reaction mechanism. Basic pulse theory is demonstrated and tested in an experiment on glycolysis. In a second approach, measurements on time series of concentrations are used to construct correlation functions and a theory is developed which shows that from these functions information may be inferred on the reaction pathway, the reaction mechanism, and the centers of control in that mechanism. A third approach is based on application of genetic algorithm methods to the study of the evolutionary development of a reaction mechanism, to the attainment given goals in a mechanism, and to the determination of a reaction mechanism and rate coefficients by comparison with experiment. Responses of non-linear systems to pulses or other perturbations are analyzed, and mechanisms of oscillatory reactions are presented in detail. The concluding chapters give an introduction to bioinformatics and statistical methods for determining reaction mechanisms.

                                  This thoroughly revised and updated edition of one of the classics of kinetics text books continues the successful concept of the 1974 edition: In its first part, a simplified approach to the determination of rate laws and mechnisms is given steadily working up to complex situations. In the following chapters the principles developed there are extensively used in a comprehensive account of reactions of transition metal complexes, including reactions of biological signifacance.

                                  The text is illustrated by numerous figures and tables. Points of further interest are highlighted in special insets. 140 problems, taken from the original literature, enable the student to apply and deepen his newly acquired knowledge and make the book highly useful for courses in inorganic and organometallic reaction mechanisms. Furthermore, a wealth of over 1700 references renders it an indispensable work for the active researcher.

                                    Chemical Kinetics and Mechanism considers the role of rate of reaction. It begins by introducing chemical kinetics and the analysis of reaction mechanism, from basic well-established concepts to leading edge research. Organic reaction mechanisms are then discussed, encompassing curly arrows, nucleophilic substitution and E1 and E2 elimination reactions. The book concludes with a Case Study on Zeolites, which examines their structure and internal dimensions in relation to their behaviour as molecular sieves and catalysts. The accompanying CD-ROM contains the "Kinetics Toolkit", a graph-plotting application designed for manipulation and analysis of kinetic data, which is built into many of the examples, questions and exercises in the text. There are also interactive activities illustrating reaction mechanisms. The Molecular World series provides an integrated introduction to all branches of chemistry for both students wishing to specialise and those wishing to gain a broad understanding of chemistry and its relevance to the everyday world and to other areas of science. The books, with their Case Studies and accompanying multi-media interactive CD-ROMs, will also provide valuable resource material for teachers and lecturers.

                                            5 out of 5 stars Totally Intellectual Creation-the book that is.......2003-05-18

                                            Robert Foley has produced a work of utmost brilliance. Humans before Humanity is thoroughly engaging to both the general reader (myself included) and to the novice in the fields of anthropology, palaeontology, evolutionist, primatologist, geneticist and others. The book is entirely refreshing in its approach and in the discussion of theories relating to the origins, developments, morphology and extinction of the humans before humanity-the common ancestors of modern humans.

                                            The book is organised in a novel (at least to me) way of answering pertinent questions relating to humans. These are questions like, among others, What are human beings; Why Africa; Why are humans so rare in evolution. Each chapter is an intellectual journey with highly scientific approaches, with ample evidences and empirical basis. One such theoretical discussion was on the developments of the large human brains. He summoned theories relating to sociality of the apes (human ancestors) to explain why humans evolved large brains. He also gave a statistical discussion on co-relation of brain size (and all the other mathematical methods of measuring brain size) to sociality. What was most interesting and enlightening was a cost and benefit analysis of large brains, explaining why other apes do not have brains as large as humans, if such large brains were so beneficial.

                                            Throughout the book, especially the later part, Foley summons the cost and benefit approach to explain most characteristics of humans. This is a highly structured way of making sense of the most perplexing questions relating to human evolution. It was the economics of evolution. He also used this approach to explain why other animals did not evolve the way humans did. This approach was used in explaining bipedalism, hominid reproduction, hominid social complexes and others.

                                            The last chapter, I feel, is the chapter worth reading more than any other books in anthropology and evolution. The last chapter answers the question: Does evolution really matter? He sums up the book by exploring the origins of language, culture and cognition. The most annoying yet important debate of nature vs nurture (biology vs culture) is also treated albeit in a brief way and not revealing any bias to one side. His last discussion is a cogent intellectual call to separate consequences from causes. He argues that human evolution has been highly magnificent and even grand-like because of the benefit of hindsight. But it does not warrant grand causes like creationist theories, aquatic theories and other blinding-flash theories, which gave man what he has today. His coup de grace in this scientifically intellectual book, is by saying that during the course of human evolution, "nothing very much happened".

                                            In the plethora of books with the purpose of introducing the reader with the latest theories of human evolution, this book ranks as one of the best. Foley is careful to focus squarely on fossils and scientific theories and not on magnificently wonderful ideas, with hardly any scientific basis. I would recommend this book to all who wish to understand the origins of humans and our ape ancestors. It is a totally intellectual creation-the book that is.

                                            4 out of 5 stars Great coverage of current & fringe anthropology theories.......2001-08-16

                                            Foley manages to say quite a bit in this 200 page book about anthropology, evolution, and a little about sociology too. He addresses not only the mainstream but some peripheral issues as well. All in all he covers a wide range of issues intelligently and resourcefully. The text is harmoniously augmented and complimented by great graphics and charts as well, rendering what I thought was an informative, entertaining, and credible exposition of an often dry and soporific subject matter.

                                            The other reviewer who rates this book one star was obviously way over reacting to some comments by Foley in the opening pages of the book that address the scientifically outdated Boas/Mead SSSM (Standard Social Science Model). This book's strength should be measured by its anthropological relevancy, not the brief, although likely accurate assessment of a paradigm shift away from obsolete social theories toward the more current genetically based models, which is more of a fait accompli than a debate. Foley's pot shots at literary post modernist meddling in the hard sciences is certainly not unwarranted, nor is his de rigour lecture about the idiocy of the religious right verses biological evolution. These are two pretty common and valid criticisms.

                                            Foley does join the status quo and endorse the out of Africa theory, but does give some air time to the likes of Van Daniken and the more credible but still fringe Elaine Morgan. He does this I think to contrast how much has been learned and set into a defined scientific context about the still swampy opaqueness that temporal extension tends to create in anthropology, especially in light of the more anthropocentric critics and cranks that this particular science naturally attracts.

                                            In any event, he proceeds, workman like, to cover the known artifactual and statistical data regarding bipedalism, its concomitant anatomical morphology, classification schemas & lineages, tool usage, radiations, African Eve, allometric neural evolution, etc. I particular enjoyed his discussion of allometric neural evolution and the encephalization quotient statistical model, and their correlation to intelligence relative to the putative survival characteristics of now extinct hominids.

                                            Foley sums up with the cultural considerations of art, langauge, and agriculture. He poses all of his survey in an evolutionary context and never wavers from a most scientific consideration of all the material he analyzes. This book is a thorough, fast paced perusal of anthropology as it stands today (or in 1995 as it were) and helped me to syncretize what can be a daunting ocean of a most dense and often impenetrable science.
