The Annotated Build-It-Yourself Science Laboratory

Build Over 200 Pieces of Science Equipment!

By: Windell Oskay,Raymond Barrett

Raymond E. Barrett's Build-It-Yourself Science Laboratory is a classic book that took on an audacious task: to show young readers in the 1960s how to build a complete working science lab for chemistry, biology, and physics--and how to perform experiments with those tools. The experiments in this book are fearless and bold by today's standards--any number of the experiments might never be mentioned in a modern book for young readers! Yet, many from previous generations fondly remember how we as a society used to embrace scientific learning. This new version of Barrett's book has been updated for today's world with annotations and updates from Windell Oskay of Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories, including extensive notes about modern safety practices, suggestions on where to find the parts you need, and tips for building upon Barrett's ideas with modern technology. With this book, you'll be ready to take on your own scientific explorations at school, work, or home.

Measurement Error in Nonlinear Models

By: Raymond J. Carroll,David Ruppert,Leonard A. Stefanski

This monograph provides an up-to-date discussion of analysis strategies for regression problems in which predictor variables are measured with errors. The analysis of nonlinear regression models includes generalized linear models, transform-both-sides models and quasilikelihood and variance function problems. The text concentrates on the general ideas and strategies of estimation and inference rather than being concerned with a specific problem. Measurement error occurs in many fields, such as biometry, epidemiology and economics. In particular, the book contains a large number of epidemiological examples. An outline of strategies for handling progressively more difficult problems is also provided.

GC/LC, Instruments, Derivatives in Identifying Pollutants and Unknowns

By: Raymond C. Crippen

GC/LC Instruments, Derivatives in Identifying Pollutants and Unknowns outlines the methods of identifying various components in products, processes, or discharges to the environment. This book is composed of 14 chapters that demonstrate the utility of gas and liquid chromatographs in the analysis of unknown organic compounds. The opening chapters deal with the isolation and the preparation of derivatives of various pollutants. Considerable chapters are devoted to the analysis and detection of various organic group compounds, including derivatives of acetals, acetates, acids, acid halides, ethers, amines, amino acids, anilides, barbiturates, benzamides, esters, and hydrocarbons. Other chapters cover other group compounds, such as derivatives of oxalates, oximes, peroxides, phenyl, semicarbazones, silicones, sulfur, toluidides, tri-halo acids, and alcohols. The closing chapters describe the identification techniques and instrumentation of pollutant detection. These chapters highlight the utilization of GC/LC data in physic-chemical measurements of various organic pollutants. This book will prove useful to analytical and organic chemists, environmental scientists, and researchers.

Saldora

Early Empire

By: Raymond Pairan Jr

Emerging from an unfathomable distance of space the Destiny a sleek intergalactic exploration cruiser started descending into the orange atmosphere of Naxious. The crew of the Destiny had been gradually moving further from the known galaxies utilizing the “Plaxitive Time Stream” to reach this uncharted region in just two Earth years. They alone, the primate species that inhabited a nondescript solar system on an equally colorful blue world had finally reached, discovered this myth that had been the stuff of legends for so many races. Being a young species in a galaxy comprised of ancient civilizations humanity hadn’t been aware of this mysterious world until they’d ventured out beyond their safe confines many centuries earlier. It was a twist of fate that the youngest race, having leaped technologically ahead of all the rest, now using what other races deemed technological marvels, was now going to set foot upon this fabled world. John’s orders were explicit conveyed by none other than the Director of Space Exploration: “Get to this galaxy, this planet if it existed, and do it fast, under maximum power.” John pressed the Director for why the urgency in getting to a world that few expected to exist but only got the usual “Sorry, John this is highly classified.”

The Work of the Gods in Tikopia

Second Edition

By: Raymond Firth

First published in 1939 and long out of print, this book remains unique as the only full and detailed account by a social anthropologist of a complete pagan Polynesian ritual cycle. This new single-volume edition omits some of the Tikopia vernacular texts, but includes a new theoretical introduction; postscripts have also been supplied to some of the chapters comparing the performances of 1928-9 with those witnessed by Professor Firth on his second visit to Tikopia in 1952. There is a specially written Epilogue on the final eclipse of the traditional ritual, based on a third visit by the author during the summer of 1966.

The Royal Navy and the Slave Trade

By: Raymond C. Howell

The Royal Navy and the Slave Trade, first published in 1987, offers a detailed analysis of the Royal Navy’s slave trade suppression on the East Coast of Africa – an area often neglected in studies of the campaigns against the slavers. It traces the naval impact on the Arab slave trade from Zanzibar dominions and the political implications of that involvement. The naval contribution to the broader ‘Imperial’ debate is also considered. It breaks new ground by dealing with naval operations off East Africa and by presenting an analysis of the interaction of the various Imperial officials in the region, and the subsequent development of British policy.
