Boas of the West Indies is a comprehensive survey of boid snakes, commonly known as boas, found on the islands of the Lucayan Archipelago, the Greater Antilles, and the Lesser Antilles. Bringing together the expertise of leading herpetologists R. Graham Reynolds, Robert W. Henderson, Luis M. Díaz, Tomás Michel Rodríguez, and Alberto R. Puente-Rolón, this volume synthesizes established knowledge and new findings on the evolutionary biology, natural history, and conservation statuses of these iconic snakes. One of the most ecologically diverse snake families, boas have inhabited the West Indies for millions of years. From the Cuban boa, which in many folk legends may grow to over twice a person's height, to the Hispaniolan vineboa, discovered only in 2020 and known to measure less than a meter long, Boas of the West Indies examines the eighteen species extant on these islands along with several others now extinct. Species accounts include details such as phenotypic traits, distribution, and behavior. Introductory chapters discuss the history of human-boa interaction, differences between West Indian and neotropical mainland boids, current conservation efforts, and more. Illustrated with over a hundred color photographs and range maps, Boas of the West Indies is a benchmark reference for herpetologists, conservationists, and snake hobbyists that expands our knowledge of—and celebrates—these fascinating creatures so integral to the ecology of these islands.

Darwin's Replacement: Introducing the Godly Life-Science of Atomic Biology As the Replacement for Darwin's Theory of Evolution

Darwin's Replacement: Introducing the Godly Life-Science of Atomic Biology As the Replacement for Darwin's Theory of Evolution

Graham McLennan; Thomas W. Rogers

nidottu
In 1987, a curiosity came to the mind of a new believer in our Creator God. Thomas W. Rogers came from a background in engineering, research, construction, and manufacturing. His nature is to understand how material things are constructed and maintained. The curiosity was to determine how this Creator actually constructs and maintains living entities, including us. When his research and findings went to where previous science had not gone, it was time to get serious. Tom established "Reality Research & Development Inc." to proceed more formally with the research. Through three decades of R&D with input from forty-five scholars, with special credit to the 2016 Nobel Prize Winners for Chemistry, super-intelligence is proven essential for building cell-parts, cells, and us. This, of course, eliminates Evolution as the cause of life as it has no intelligence with which to do the essential works. A new science was created to study the selection and assembly of the right numbers of the right atoms into cell-parts for living entities. The group called the science "Atomic Biology." Tom and his co-author, Dr. Graham McLennan have written the details into "Darwin's Replacement." This may sound technical but the basics are simple enough for a fifth-grader to understand. There seems to be only one real super-intelligent force; the majority of our citizens and our governments call this force, "God." Coupling this science with the facts that God is already highly recognized by the governments of Canada, the USA, the UK, and Australia, this gives our students the inalienable right to be taught Why God is a highly recognized part of Their Governments; especially now for scientific reasons. "The Atomic Biology Institute" has been established as a non-profit organization to further the research and education regarding this subject. Potential benefits that can be produced by applying Atomic Biology include, but are not limited to, improvements in Nutrition, Agriculture, Aquaculture, Medicine, Education, Belief in God, Mental and Physical Health. This is an exciting major project. The Purpose is to bring the credit for creating and maintaining us back to our Creator where it belongs. The Goal is to bring Him into science classes at all levels from grade five through university, to show the enormous scientific works and care He provides for each one of us every second of every day.Your interest is greatly appreciated. It will take many participants to be proud of helping to get the message out there and to make this happen.

""Exchange, Prices, and Production in Hyperinflation: Germany, 1920-1923"" is a comprehensive study of the economic conditions that led to hyperinflation in Germany during the early 20th century. The book is written by Frank D. Graham, a renowned economist who has extensively researched the topic of hyperinflation.The book begins by providing a historical overview of Germany's economic situation before and during the hyperinflation period. Graham then analyzes the impact of hyperinflation on exchange rates, prices, and production. He examines the role of the government, banks, and other economic actors in exacerbating or mitigating the inflationary pressures.Throughout the book, Graham provides detailed quantitative data and analysis to support his arguments. He also draws on contemporary accounts and primary sources to provide a vivid picture of the social and political consequences of hyperinflation. The book concludes with a discussion of the lessons that can be learned from Germany's experience and their relevance for modern economic policy.Overall, ""Exchange, Prices, and Production in Hyperinflation: Germany, 1920-1923"" is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the causes and consequences of hyperinflation, as well as the broader economic and political forces that shape our world.This is a new release of the original 1930 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

This book aids clinicians in supporting and caring for transgender and gender-diverse children and adolescents – youth who are born into an incongruent body. A recent study using data from 19 states reported that 1.8% of American youth identified as transgender. Many people who are transgender will experience gender dysphoria, the intense emotional distress that is caused by a discrepancy between a person's gender identity and their sex assigned at birth. In this compact volume, the authors discuss the variety of domains involved in addressing gender dysmorphia: social, psychological, medical, and legislative/advocacy. They provide clear and concise information on the types and timing of gender-affirming medications and surgical interventions and offer useful suggestions for making interactions in the clinic and the clinical space inclusive for transgender and gender-diverse youth. Among the topics covered include:identity development and gender nonconformity in early childhood and pubertythe importance of access to mental health professionals with expertise in gender nonconformitythe responsible use of developmentally appropriate gender-affirming medications and surgical interventionsrelated clinical issues such as nutrition counselling for youth receiving gender-affirming treatmentscreating a safe and inclusive healthcare environment for transgender and gender-diverse youthadvocating for transgender and gender-diverse patients by working with local and national policy makersProviding Affirming Care to Transgender and Gender-Diverse Youth is essential reading for pediatric healthcare professionals including physicians in pediatrics and family medicine, plastic surgeons, nurses, dietitians, psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and other practitioners. Students in these fields as well aspolicy makers also would find this a useful resource.

Introduction To Statistical Thermodynamics, An

Introduction To Statistical Thermodynamics, An

Robert P H Gasser; Richards W Graham

World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd
1995
nidottu
Statistical thermodynamics plays a vital linking role between quantum theory and chemical thermodynamics, yet students often find the subject unpalatable.In this updated version of a popular text, the authors overcome this by emphasising the concepts involved, in particular demystifying the partition function. They do not get bogged down in the mathematical niceties that are essential for a profound study of the subject but which can confuse the beginner. Strong emphasis is placed on the physical basis of statistical thermodynamics and the relations with experiment. After a clear exposition of the distribution laws, partition functions, heat capacities, chemical equilibria and kinetics, the subject is further illuminated by a discussion of low-temperature phenomena and spectroscopy. The coverage is brought right up to date with a chapter on computer simulation and a final section which ranges beyond the narrow limits usually associated with student texts to emphasise the common dependence of macroscopic behaviour on the properties of constituent atoms and molecules.Since first published in 1974 as ‘Entropy and Energy Levels’, the book has been very popular with students. This revised and updated version will no doubt serve the same needs.

Molecular Modeling Kit to accompany Organic Chemistry, 7e

Molecular Modeling Kit to accompany Organic Chemistry, 7e

T. W. Graham Solomons; Craig B. Fryhle

John Wiley Sons Inc
2003
sidottu
Manipulating models and building molecules in 3-dimensional space is the very best way for students to develop their spatial skills (one of the key issues in organic courses) and to get a real sense of how molecules are put together. To that end, we have done everything we could to make a model set available for students at a price they can afford. The model kit is particularly customized to the Solomons Fryhle text, but can be used with any of Wiley's organic texts. Manufactured by Darling Model Kits, this custom kit was designed by T.W.Graham Solomons. The kit consists of Darling's basic Molecular Vision kit with a few additional pieces, so that p orbitals could be shown in molecules like acetylene. This customized kit also has pieces that allow linear geometry for the sigma bonds of alkynes while also having orthogonal connections at each atom for the associated p orbitals. By attaching balls of the right colors it is possible to show the lobes of the p orbitals that make up the pi bonds in an alkyne. Ball colors can be matched symmetrically to show in-phase orbital overlap, or antisymmetrically to show an antibonding state. Use of colored balls with the appropriate framework geometry is a very nice feature of the Darling model set. Pieces from Darling's inorganic model set and are used for octahedral geometry.

The Business of Research

The Business of Research

Margaret B. W. Graham

Cambridge University Press
1986
sidottu
The story of the RCA VideoDisc is a rare inside look at a company and the way it conducts the complex process of science-based innovation. For nearly fifty years the RCA name was synonymous with innovation in the industries it helped to build - radio and television broadcasting and manufacturing, and electronics. Under David Sarnoff’s leadership the company developed an organization and a management style that gave it the ability to turn scientific discoveries into business achievement time after time. VideoDisc was RCA’s attempt to recapture that leadership after a decade in which David Sarnoff’s successors tried to follow the more fashionable paths to corporate growth of unrelated diversification and acquisition. But RCA’s ability to innovate had been undermined through disuse, and it proved unable to innovate as effectively as its Japanese competitors. Margaret Graham’s book presents an absorbing account of how RCA shaped a sophisticated consumer electronics technology in a research and development effort that spanned fifteen years. We see how the company’s history, its structure, its technical capability, and its competition all influenced the choices that were made in moving VideoDisc from laboratory to development group to market, and ultimately to withdrawal from the marketplace. Graham’s book seeks to examine the nature of science-based innovation as a management problem. It also describes the complex workings of a large corporate R&D organization and the relationship that exists between it and the other components of a major diversified corporation. Above all RCA and the VideoDisc shows that there is nothing innate about the ability to innovate technologically. It is an organizational and managerial skill that must be fostered, maintained, supported, and understood if it is to be practiced effectively. For those inside and outside corporate life who have wondered what industrial research is, why it costs so much, and why it often seems to take so long to produce commercial results, this book will be a valuable introduction to the ‘business of research’.

Van der Corput's Method of Exponential Sums

Van der Corput's Method of Exponential Sums

S. W. Graham; Grigori Kolesnik

Cambridge University Press
1991
pokkari
This book is a self-contained account of the one- and two-dimensional van der Corput method and its use in estimating exponential sums. These arise in many problems in analytic number theory. It is the first cohesive account of much of this material and will be welcomed by graduates and professionals in analytic number theory. The authors show how the method can be applied to problems such as upper bounds for the Riemann-Zeta function. the Dirichlet divisor problem, the distribution of square free numbers, and the Piatetski-Shapiro prime number theorem.
