The Versatile Organic Chemistry of Sulfur(IV)

By: Vincent Porte,Roberto Tinelli,Phillip S. Grant,Daniel Kaiser,Nuno Maulide

In the vast landscape of organic chemistry, sulfur-containing compounds play a pivotal role in pharmaceuticals, industrial processes, and a wide range of chemical transformations, where they often enable selective and otherwise challenging functionalization reactions. This primer aims not only to elucidate the fundamental characteristics of sulfoxides and sulfur ylides but also to address key challenges encountered in their chemistry. By examining the influence of molecular structure on reactivity, the authors uncover valuable insights that underpin the utilization of these compounds. The Versatile Organic Chemistry of Sulfur(IV) is conceived as a precursor to our more extensive review, tailored to provide foundational knowledge for readers seeking entry into the more specialized material presented therein. The authors‘ goal for this primer is to equip both novices and seasoned practitioners with an understanding that transcends theoretical concepts, fostering an environment ripe for exploration and innovation.

Decarbonization of Cities in Asia

A Polycentric Approach to Policy, Business and Technology

By: Vincent S. Cheng,Guo-Jun Li

This book provides best practices for decarbonizing cities in East Asia, in which buildings are the major contributor to carbon emissions. Beyond the global commitment through the Paris Agreement to make collective efforts on climate action and accelerated policies, investment and development at the country and city level to combat climate change are occurring at an unprecedented rate. Rapid urbanization and increasing energy demand for large and dense Asian cities require smart and sustainable strategies to balance development with decarbonization. A poly-centric approach is needed, where a combination of policy-, market- and technology-driven changes can aid the transition towards development of carbon neutral cities. With practical examples in the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, green financing, climate action roadmap and policy, deployment of renewable energy, and low- to zero-carbon buildings, readers can find the motivation, considerations and implementation pathways to facilitate the transition into the new normal. It is the hope of the authors to encourage readers to see successful pathways in transitioning into a carbon-free industry and overcoming the effects of climate extremes.

Comprehensive Neurosurgery

(Volume 2)

By: A. Vincent Thamburaj,Sanjai Behari,Sachin Chemate

Introducing Comprehensive Neurosurgery with 118 chapters organized into 8 sections in two volumes and each section has been reviewed by eminent neurosurgeons. This book is meant to serve as a comprehensive guide for Neurosurgical trainees, young Neurosurgeons and those in allied disciplines who participate in neurological care. Volume 2 deals with pathology and management of tumours, increasing interest in degenerative spine in addition to spinal cord lesions and the emerging specialty, restorative neurology. This book intends to be a guide to trainees, young neurosurgeons and those in allied disciplines. Wide spectrum of neurosurgical disorders are covered with 118 chapters organized into 8 sections and 2 volumes; each of the eight sections has been critically reviewed by eminent surgeons. Each chapter specifically attempts to draw together all up-to-date relevant information and integrate theory and practice for a comprehensive learning. The concise and practical style is deliberately chosen for easy use. Comprehensive Neurosurgery is the medical specialty concerned with the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of disorders which affect the spine, the brain, and the nervous system within the head and cervical canal. Comprehensive Neurosurgery can be broadly categorized into two categories, namely surgical neurosurgery, concerned with the operative treatment of disease, and non-surgical neurosurgery, concerned with the management and rehabilitation of patients with acquired brain insults. Neurosurgery is a surgical specialty that deals with the human nervous system. It is both an operating room procedure and a diagnostic procedure. The procedure of neurosurgery deals with the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves. Some of the operations of neurosurgery that you can find in this blog are pituitary tumor surgery, brain tumor surgery and the craniotomy procedure. Besides the surgical operations, Comprehensive Neurosurgery also deals with diagnostic procedures like the myelogram, spinal taps, brain biopsy and the EEG test. Each chapter specifically attempts to draw together all up-to-date relevant information and integrate theory and practice for a comprehensive learning in a concise and practical style.

Aerosol Sampling

Science, Standards, Instrumentation and Applications

By: James H. Vincent

This book provides a comprehensive account of the important field of aerosol sampling as it is applied to the measurement of aerosols that are ubiquitous in occupational and living environments, both indoor and outdoor. It is written in four parts: Part A contains 9 chapters that describe the current knowledge of the physical science that underpins the process of aerosol sampling. Part B contains 4 chapters, which present the basis of standards for aerosols, including the link with human exposure by inhalation. Part C contains 7 chapters that cover the development of practical aerosol sampling instrumentation, and how technical designs and methods have evolved over the years in order that aerosol sampling may be carried out in a manner matching the health-related and other criteria that have been proposed as parts of standards. Finally Part D contains 6 chapters that describe how a wide range of aerosol sampling instruments have performed when they have been applied in the field in both occupational and ambient atmospheric environments, including how different instruments, nominally intended to measure the same aerosol fraction, compare when used side-by-side in the real world. The book draws together all that is known about aerosol sampling, for the benefit of researchers and practitioners in occupational and environmental health and all other fields of science and engineering where aerosols are of interest.

Single-Molecule Studies of Nucleic Acids and Their Proteins

By: David Bensimon,Vincent Croquette,Jean-François Allemand,Xavier Michalet,Terence Strick

This book provides the basis for understanding the elastic properties of nucleic acids (DNA, RNA), the methods used to manipulate them (e.g. optical, magnetic and acoustic tweezers and traps), and how to observe their interactions with proteins (e.g. fluorescence microscopy, FCS, FRET, etc.). It then exemplifies the use of these various methods in the study of three families of DNA enzymes: polymerases, helicases and topoisomerases. The book aims not to be exhaustive, but rather to stimulate the imagination of readers in the application of these single molecule approaches to the study of DNA/RNA and their interactions.
