The field of matter transport is central to understanding the processing of materials and their subsequent mechanical properties. While thermodynamics determines the final state of a material system, it is the kinetics of mass transport that governs how it gets there. This book, first published in 2000, gives a solid grounding in the principles of matter transport and their application to a range of engineering problems. The author develops a unified treatment of mass transport applicable to both solids and liquids. Traditionally matter transport in fluids is considered as an extension of heat transfer and can appear to have little relationship to diffusion in solids. This unified approach clearly makes the connection between these important fields. This book is aimed at advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students of materials science and engineering and related disciplines. It contains numerous worked examples and unsolved problems. The material can be covered in a one semester course.
The French Wars of Religion were more than a battle for outright military victory. They were also a battle for the hearts and minds of the population of France. In this struggle to win over public opinion, often apparently peripheral issues could be engaged to make partisan points. Such was the case with the polemical literature surrounding Mary Queen of Scots. Based on major new bibliographic research, this study charts the evolving relationship between Mary and French public opinion.

Let's Go is a six-level course for children beginning their studies of English. It combines a controlled grammatical syllabus with functional dialogues, alphabet and phonics work, listening tests in every unit and songs and chants. Four review units per level help to reinforce new structures and vocabulary. Classroom interaction in English is encouraged from the beginning of the programme through a focus on question and answer forms, dialogues, pairwork exercises and communicative games.
Practical Procedures in Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, written by one of the foremost authorities in the field, is the definitive "hands-on" guide for the practicing plastic surgeon. Each chapter presents the actual execution of a specific surgical technique and illustrates the finer points that separate unacceptable from state-of-the-art surgical results. Aesthetic plastic surgery procedures from head-to-toe are covered, including blepharoplasty, rhytidectomy, abdominoplasty, suction-assisted lipectomy, breast augmentation, and lip enhancement. Over 500 photographs and line drawings, with 46 in full color, are the thrust of the book's benefit to the practicing surgeon, as each clearly defines the technical maneuvers essential in achieving flawless results. Prevention of mistakes as well as correction and repair of poor technique are also emphasized - an area that few books stress at all. Truly the most clear-cut technical volume available, this book should be in the hands of all practicing plastic surgeons and residents.

This book gives a realistic overview of model-based testing, its values and prerequisites for success when deploying the approach in a software testing industrialization perspective. The text shows how to save time and lower costs while raising quality in the phases of system testing, acceptance testing and, more generally, all functional testing phases. Key features: Details the key role of model-based testing to ensure continuity in the software testing industrialization process, describing how each step could be implemented. Uses detailed examples – the actiTIME application – to teach techniques of model-based testing, including modeling guidelines, test generation strategies and automated test execution. Offers a companion website which makes available machine-readable versions of case studies and examples used in the book, as well as presentation slides.
