Original poems accompanied by the author's own unique artwork depicting the poems morphed into pictures. The pictures are some times whimsical, others are visionary, or feature mythic creatures. The pictures support the poems, no matter what those pretentious editoral voices of "The Others" claim.
An enchanted world Forty pages of inspired pictures: some mystical visions, others dancing figures and vegetation. Owls populate one section watched by a Blue-Footed Booby, "who disapproves." Some critics have said the design and color-combinations are the artist's greatest achievements. Words are of little use in any relation to art. The picture must speak for itself. Scattered among the pictures are four poems by the artist; they give a taste of the book to come.
First published in 1932. The widespread influence of Gregor Johann Mendel’s work and his own remarkable destiny combine to arouse interest in the personality and the life of this investigator who, little known in his lifetime, was one of the pioneers of science. This comprehensive biography of the life and work of Mendel will be of great interest to historians and scientists.
Heterophase polymerization is a century-old technology with a wide range of relevant industrial applications, including coatings, adhesives, rubbers, and many other specialized biomedical and high-performance materials. However, due to its multiscale complexity, it still remains a challenging research topic. It is a broad field covering all heterogeneous polymerization processes that result in polymer dispersions. Its technical realizations comprise emulsion polymerization, dispersion polymerization, suspension polymerization, miniemulsion polymerization, microemulsion polymerization, and others. This book is devoted to the science and technology of heterophase polymerization, considering it a generic term as well as an umbrella expression for all of its technical realizations. It presents, from a modern perspective, the basic concepts and principles required to understand the kinetics and thermodynamics of heterophase polymerization at the atomistic, molecular, macromolecular, supramolecular, colloidal, microscopic, mesoscopic, and macroscopic scales. It critically discusses the important physicochemical mechanisms involved in heterophase polymerization, such as nucleation, particle aggregation, mass transfer, swelling, spontaneous emulsification, and polymerization kinetics, along with the experimental evidences at hand.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Groupware, CRIWG 2005, held in Porto de Galinhas, Brazil in September 2005. The 16 revised full papers and 13 revised short papers presented together with a keynote paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 67 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on groupware development, collaborative applications, workflow management, knowledge management, computer supported collaborative learning, group decision support systems, mobile collaborative work, and work modeling in CSCW.
