Book Description

Molecular hydrogen is the most abundant molecule in the Universe. In recent years, advances in theory and laboratory experiments coupled with breakthrough observations with important new telescopes and satellites have revolutionized our understanding of molecular hydrogen in space. It is now possible to address the question of how molecular hydrogen formed in the early Universe and the role it played in the formation of primordial structures. This volume presents articles from a host of experts who reviewed this new understanding at an international conference in Paris. It covers the theory of the physical processes and laboratory experiments, as well as the latest observations. It will be an invaluable reference for all students and researchers in astrophysics and cosmology.

Book Description

In what is widely hailed as the best of his many novels, Charles Bukowski details the long, lonely years of his own hardscrabble youth in the raw voice of alter ego Henry Chinaski. From a harrowingly cheerless childhood in Germany through acne-riddled high school years and his adolescent discoveries of alcohol, women, and the Los Angeles Public Library's collection of D. H. Lawrence, Ham on Rye offers a crude, brutal, and savagely funny portrait of an outcast's coming-of-age during the desperate days of the Great Depression.

Bukowski is a chandala-- but he did it well.......2007-09-13

Bukowski is what Nietzcshe referred to as a chandala... he was ugly, he was abused and mistreated, he was a little mean, he was a little perverse, and he suffered and struggled a lot.

But he did it well and documented it well-- even the chandala need their documentarians, historians and champions...

In any event, one thing people shouldn't confuse is that they probably would not want to be charles bukoswki unless it was their lot in life. As with many authors, Bukowski gets to take his shabby life and become a sympathetic protagonist.

It is not a bad thing to examine the lower depths as long as one doesn't forget there are also human heights that are attainable for some people.--not for people like Bukowski -- but for other types.

Bukowski's choice of cuisine says it all-- Bukowski is Ham on Rye, perhaps with a piece of stale swiss cheese and 3 day old potato salad on the side. Bukowski is every 10th guy at the wall mart -- who just also happened to be a writer with some insight into his life.-- perhaps it made it bearable for him. I hope so.

A few days before my fifteenth birthday, I picked up this book and my life was changed forever. I remember tearing through the parts describing the intense boils on his face and the way people treated him. I loved the part about the boy whacking off to his attractive teacher beneath his desk. I loved his drunken antics and the way he behaves: completely and totally in the moment. Everything in this book is so beautiful. This and Women are two of the best books I have ever read. His poetry is great as well. I strongly reccomend everything he has ever written.

And you think you had it tough?.......2007-05-14

A collection of short story style chapters that follows the miserable life of Henry Chinaski, a boy with skin boils so deep they need to be lanced regularly at the local clinic with a drill.
It makes you want to laugh, it makes you want to cry, sometimes it makes you want to throw the book away with revulsion. But despite this, it is definately a page turner, and one of the best books I have ever read.

Bukowski's early life.......2007-05-12

Like all Bukowski's work, Ham on Rye is easily and quickly read. This doesn't mean the book lacks substance. As a great writer, and I believe he qualifies to be called this, he makes writing seem simple. Like Hemingway, Carver, and other great writers did and some still do. It's a pleasure to read a pure artist when he's at the top of his game. Ham on Rye is an important and weighty book. It provides insight into the mind of Bukowski which may help the reader when he or she tackles other Bukowski works, such as his short stories. I'm not sure but I could have used some context on Bukowski when, as a youngster, I read Tales of Ordinary Madness. Now to be sure, I question the veracity of some parts of Ham on Rye, but that didn't deter me. Bukowski often embelishes, which is OK, he's a writer of fiction. If you have a chance, you should read this book.

WOW.......2007-05-11

I won't bore you telling you how good this book is. I will let the other reviews do that.

What I will tell you is that I am 33 years old and have not read a novel since high school. Not because I don't enjoy reading, but because I couldn't find an author worth investing my time into. The search is over. I read this book in 3 days. Then I bought Post Office and Factotum. Read both of those in a week. I have Women and Notes of a Dirty Old Man on order. I can't get enough.
