Many books on dynamics start with a discussion of systems with one or two degrees of freedom and then turn to the generalization to the case of many degrees of freedom. For linear systems, the concept of eigenfunctions provides a compact and elegant method for decomposing the dynamics of a high dimensional system into a series of independent single-degree-of-freedom dynamical systems. Yet, when the system has a very high dimension, the determination of the eigenfunctions may be a distinct challenge, and when the dynamical system is nonconservative and/or nonlinear, the whole notion of uncoupled eigenmodes requires nontrivial extensions of classical methods. These issues constitute the subject of this book.
Completely revised, this new edition updates the chemical and physical properties of major food components including water, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, minerals vitamins and enzymes. Chapters on color, flavor and texture help the student understand key factors in the visual and organoleptic aspects of food. The chapter on contaminants and additives provides an updated view of their importance in food safety. Revised chapters on beer and wine production, and herbs and spices, provide the student with an understanding of the chemistry associated with these two areas which are growing rapidly in consumer interest. New to this edition is a chapter on the basics of GMOs. Each chapter contains new tables and illustrations, and an extensive bibliography, providing readers with ready access to relevant literature and links to the internet where appropriate. Just like its widely used predecessors, this new edition is valuable as a textbook and reference.
Passage To America By: M.C. Deman and C.R. Joyce When Kathrina first travels to the United States from Manila with her family, she is excited to see a new country and experience a new culture. In an unexpected turn of events, she remains in the US and lives there. Years later, Kathrina finds herself working for a cranky, ungrateful man and dating a lackluster boyfriend with no ambitions. Kathrina wants to be an American citizen, and live without fear of deportation. Her heart longs for her American dream to be fulfilled and she will stop at nothing to achieve it. Five Stars: Goals, aspirations, bump on the road, and challenges all mixed of tangled web in the pursuit of the Love and American dream. Looking forward what’s on the next corner. Nicely written. Good Job. Five Stars: I definitely recommend this book to other readers! Love it! Kudos! Five Stars: Highly recommend! Can’t wait to read the continuation.
