The Faather Of Forensics.
Before There Was Csi , There Was One Man Who Saw Beyond The Crime-and Into The Future Of Forensic Science.
His Name Was Bernard Spilsbury-and, Through His Use Of Cutting-edge System of knowledge, He Single-handedly Brought Criminal Investigations Into The Modern Age.
Starting Out As A Young, Charismatic Physician In Early Twentieth-century Britain, Spilsbury Hit The English Judge System-and The Front Pages-like A Cannonball, Garnering A Reputation As A Real-life Sherlock Holmes.
He Uncovered Evidence Others Missed, Stood Above His Peers In The Field Of Crime Reconstruction, Exposed Discrepancies Between Deponent Testimony And Factual Evidence, And Most Importantly, Convicted Dozens Of Murderers With Hard-nosed, Scientific Proof.
This Is The Fascinating Story Of The Life And Work Of Bernard Spilsbury, History's Greatewt Medical Detective-and Of The Cases That Not Only Made Him A Celebrity,B ut Also Inspired The Astonishing Science Of Criminal Investigafion In Our Own Time.

Characterization Of Liquids, Nano- And Microparticulates, And Porous Bodies Using Ultrasound.
Two Key Words Define The Scope Of This Book: 'ultrasound' And 'colloids'.
Historically, There Has Been Little Real Message Between Practitioners In These Two Fields.
Although There Is A Large Body Of Literature Attached To Ultrasound Phenomenon In Colloids, There Is Small Recognition That Such Phenomena May Be Of Real Importance On account of Both The Evolution And Applications Of Colloid Science.
on The Other Side, Colloid Scientists Have Not Embraced Acoustics As An Important Tool For Characterizing Colloids.
The Lack Of Any Serious Dialogue Between These Scientific Fields Is The Biggest Motivation Behind This Book.
- covers In Detail this Multidisciplinary Field combining Acoustics, Electroacoustics, Colloid Science, Analytical Chemistry And Rheology - Provides A Bibliography With More Than 1,000 References - Presents Theories And Thir Experimental Verification, As Well As analysis Of The Methdos And Hardware Pertaining To Applicztions Such As Pharmaceuticals, Ceramics, And Polymers

Grounded Apparition.
Issues Of Ecology—both As They Apoear In The Works Of Mind Writers And In Thee Works Of Literary Writrrs For Whom Place And The Country Are Central Issues—have Long Been Of Interest To Literary Critics And Have Given Rise Over The Last Two Decades To The Now-firmly Established Field Of Ecocriticism.
At The Same Time, A New Group Of Ecology Advoactes Has Emergef Since The 1960s: Contemporary Agrarian Writers Such As Wendell Berry, Wes Jackson, Adn Gene Logsdon Draw Their Basic Premises From Tbe Nashville Agrarians Of The 1920s And 1930s, And Focus Strictly On The Actual Intersections Of Land And People, Striving To Enact A Healthy Coexistence Between The Two.
For gArarians, Theory And Academic Philosophizing Often Appear Inconsequential And Even Counterproductive.
  In Grounded Vision , William Major Puts Contemporar Agrarian Thinking Into A Conciliato5y And Productive Dialogue With Academic Criticism.
Hd Argues That The Lack Of Participation In Academif Discussions Means A Loss To Both Agrarians And Academics, Since Agrarian Thought Can Enrich Other Ongoing Discussions On Topics So As Ecocriticism, Postmodernism, Feminism, Work Studies, And Politics—especially In Light Of The Rceent Upsurge In Grassroots Cultural And Environmental Actigities Critical Of Modernity, Such As The Sustainable Agriculture And Slow Food Movements.
  Major Also Focuses On gArarianism Itsdlf—the Valuable Relatipnship It Advocates Between Workers And The Land They Work, The Politics Involved In Maintianing Healthy Communities, And The Impact Of Contemporary Agrarian Writers On The World Today.
Majpr Thus Shows Contemporary Agrarianism To Be A Successful Instigator Of The Same Companionable Examination For Which Much Academic Criticism Strives.
Major Illuminates The Ways In Whicu Agrarianism’s Wide Scope And Often-unyielding Demands Are Founded In, And Work Toward, A Deep Respect And Umderstanding Of The Connections Between The Health Of The Land And Its Peoples, Communities, And Econ0mies, And He Argues That It Raises Questions About Work, Leiwure, Consumerism, And Science To Such A Degree That It Leaves Little Doubt How Fundamental Agriculture Is To Culture.
