Gemmology is the science of natural and artificial gems and gemstones, considered to be a geoscience and a branch of mineralogy. Although a profession in its own right, gemmology is often studied by jewellers to augment their abilities of gem identification. This comprehensive guide concentrates on the history of Jade in China, and includes the chapters: The Chou Dynasty; The Classic Age of Jade Carving--from Han to Sung; From Sung to Ming; From Ming Onwards; The Material Aspect of Jade; Jade Objects of the Chou Dynasty Tabulated from Laufer; Note on the Lo-Yang Tombs; and Common Symbols. This rare text constitutes a definitive guide on the subject and will greatly appeal to gemmologists and collectors of rare gemmological texts. This book has been elected for republication due to its immense educational value and is proudly republished here with a new introduction on the topic.
Macrocyclic molecules contain rings made up of seven or more atoms. They are interesting because they provide building blocks for synthesizing precise two or three dimensional structures – an important goal in nanotechnology. For example, they can be used to develop nanosized reaction vessels, cages, switches and shuttles, and have potential as components in molecular computers. They also have applications as catalysts and sensors. Macrocycles: Construction, Chemistry and Nanotechnology Applications is an essential introduction this important class of molecules and describes how to synthesise them, their chemistry, how they can be used as nanotechnology building blocks, and their applications. A wide range of structures synthesised over the past few decades are covered, from the simpler cyclophanes and multi-ring aromatic structures to vases, bowls, cages and more complex multi-ring systems and 3D architectures such as “pumpkins”, interlocking chains and knots. Topics covered include: principles of macrocycle synthesissimple ring compoundsmulti-ring aromatic structuresporphyrins and phthalocaninescyclophanescrown ethers, cryptands and spherandscalixarenes, resorcinarenes, cavitands, carcerands, and heterocalixarenescyclodextrinscucurbiturilscyclotriveratylenesrotaxanescatenanescomplex 3D architectures, including trefoils and knots Macrocycles: Construction, Chemistry and Nanotechnology Applications distills the essence of this important topic for undergraduate and postgraduate students, and for researchers in other fields interested in getting a general insight into this increasingly important class of molecules.

It is expected that this Dictionary will have a wide and varied audience; thus, while many technical terms do not lend themselves to simple definitions, a deliberate effort has been made to couch the definitions in language understandable to the novice and interested nonprofessional without at the same time doing violence to the sensibilities of the professional.

Shadow Dancers fuses elements of the horror genre with traditional fantasy and creates such a place. Instead of ogres and trolls it has werewolves and vampires. Angels and demons replace sorcerers and wizards. Its endangered princess is a N.Y.U. student, its reluctant hero is a New York detective, and its half-caste, tormented, champion of justice is a Shadow Dancer, who has wandered the earth for six millennia. This far away land of magic and mystery exists within the shadows of New York City. This is the home of Shadow Dancers. In Shadow Dancers, Detective Jeffery Cole has the "good fortune" of investigating a Central Park murder that appears to have no logical solution. There are two witnesses and both are equally unreliable; one seems crazy; the other has nothing to say. The crazy one is a young lady, Tricia Morningstar, who claims that her friend was killed by were-wolves. The other witness is a mystery man, an ex-cop, from Detroit, named James Brooks. The problem with him is simple. According to all accounts, Officer Brooks died two years ago. Who is this man, really? Why won't he tell Cole what he knows? The more Cole investigates the case, the stranger things become. He is drawn into a world that shouldn't exist, a world governed by a simple rule: things are not as they appear.

""The Ranks of Death: A Medical History of the Conquest of America"" is a comprehensive study of the impact of disease on the indigenous peoples of the Americas during the period of European colonization. Written by Percy Moreau Ashburn, a medical doctor and historian, the book provides a detailed account of the diseases that were introduced to the New World by the Europeans, including smallpox, measles, and influenza, and their devastating effects on the native populations. Ashburn examines the medical practices of both the European colonizers and the indigenous peoples, and explores the ways in which cultural differences and misunderstandings contributed to the spread of disease. The book also delves into the social and political implications of the disease epidemics, including their role in the decline of indigenous populations and the rise of European dominance in the Americas. Overall, ""The Ranks of Death"" offers a compelling and sobering look at the intersection of medicine, culture, and colonialism in the history of the Americas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
