 Twyman F, "Prism and Lens Making: A Textbook for Optical Glassworkers, 2nd Edition" English | 2017 | ISBN: 0852741502, 1138455806 | 640 pages | PDF | 293.6 MB Prism and Lens Making: A Textbook for Optical Glassworkers, Second Edition is a unique compendium of the art and science of the optical working of glass for the production of mirrors, lenses, and prisms. Incorporating minor corrections and a foreword by Professor Walter Welford FRS, this reissue of the 1957 edition provides a wealth of technical information and hands-on guidance gained from a lifetime of experience. Although some of the techniques have been replaced by more modern methods, this classic book is still a valuable source of practical assistance as well as being a pleasure to read.  Alan Greene, "Primitive Photography: A Guide to Making Cameras, Lenses, and Calotypes " English | ISBN: 1138170798 | 2015 | 240 pages | AZW3 | 11 MB Primitive Photography considers the hand-made photographic process in its entirety, showing the reader how to make box-cameras, lenses, paper negatives and salt prints, using inexpensive tools and materials found in most hardware and art-supply stores. Step-by-step procedures are presented alongside theoretical explanations and historical background. Streamlined calotype procedures are demonstrated, featuring different paper negative processes and overlooked, developing-out printing methods.  Poultry Meat Science (Poultry Science Symposium) by R I Richardson and C Mead English | June 1999 | ISBN-10: 0851992374 | 464 pages | PDF | 4 Mb This authoritative volume reviews the subject in a style which is comprehensible to the non-specialist. Contributions by leading authorities review avian meat science from basic meat structure and function, color, texture and flavor, through to practical aspects of production, harvesting and slaughter factors affecting meat quality.  Pizza Cookbook: 300+ Recipes for Every Craving by Jaime Heckman English | 2020 | ASIN: B08RRX6LVY | 307 Pages | EPUB | 2.3 MB  Physics and Chemistry of Nano-structured Materials By Shihe Yang 1999 | 221 Pages | ISBN: 0748408738 | PDF | 10 MB The development of nanostructured materials represents a new and fast evolving application of recent research in physics and chemistry. Novel experimental tools coupled with new theory have made this possible. Topics covered in this book include nanocrystals, semiconductor heterostructures, nanotubes, nanowires, and manipulation and fabrication techniques. The core of the book consists of ten lectures by five distinguished researchers, Paul Alivisatos, D.D. Awschalom, Sumio Iijima, Charles Lieber and Phaedon Avouris, presented at an Advanced Study Institute in Hong Kong in January 1999. It should interest materials physicists and chemists as well as materials scientists with an interest in the growth and characterisation of sophisticated materials.

Kabbouche 2009 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 0470512733 | PDF | 2 MB This bookВis a foundation for further study into childhood headache and serve as a quick, up-to-date reference for the recognition, diagnosis, basic understanding, evaluation and management of headache disorders in children and adolescents. Covers primary headache disorders including migraine Covers secondary headaches, including sinus, and post traumatic headache Provides thoughtful guidelines on behavioural management strategies as well as pharmacologic therapies
 Outsourcing Sovereignty: Why Privatization of Government Functions Threatens Democracy and What We Can Do about It By Paul R. Verkuil 2007 | 248 Pages | ISBN: 0521867045 | PDF | 2 MB Reliance on the private military industry and the privatization of public functions has left our government less able to govern effectively. When decisions that should have been taken by government officials are delegated (wholly or in part) to private contractors without appropriate oversight, the public interest is jeopardized. Books on private military have described the problem well, but they have not offered prescriptions or solutions this book does.  K. Peter C. Vollhardt, Neil E. Schore, "Organic Chemistry: Structure and Function, 8th Edition" English | 2018 | ISBN: 1319079458, 1319176976 | 3940 pages | PDF (conv) | 229.6 MB Gain a deeper understanding of reactions, mechanisms, and synthetic analysis and their practical applications as Organic Chemistry breaks down topics using a sensible organization based on the concept that an organic molecule's structure will determine its function.
 Ordering the Heavens: Roman Astronomy and Cosmology in the Carolingian Renaissance By Eastwood, B.S. 2007 | 478 Pages | ISBN: 9004161864 | PDF | 10 MB Based on scores of medieval manuscript texts and diagrams, the book shows how Roman sources were used in the age of Charlemagne to reintroduce and expand a qualitative picture of articulated geometrical order in the heavens.  Ocular Transporters in Ophthalmic Diseases and Drug Delivery By 2008 | 454 Pages | ISBN: 1588299589 | PDF | 19 MB This exceptionally important new work represents recent discoveries and advancements in the study of ocular transporters and their roles in ocular physiology, pathology, and drug delivery. Transporters are found on the membranes of cells and play a key role in transmitting signals between cells. In Ocular Transporters in Ophthalmic Diseases and Drug Delivery, a panel of distinguished authors discusses all the latest developments in the study of ocular transporters. Focusing on the molecular characteristics, localization, and substrate specificities in various compartments of the eye, this volume discusses how transporters regulate the clarity of the cornea and lens,Вthe movements of fluids across the ciliary epithelium, and the transport of nutrients across the retinal pigment epithelium. It also provides an in-depth look at how mutations or dysfunction of specific transporters can contribute to various disorders in the eye, including blindness, and provides readers with potential targets and strategies to allow safe passage of therapeutic drugs into the eye. Ocular Transporters in Ophthalmic Diseases and Drug Delivery is the first text book in this field and offers up-to-date information to clinicians, research scientists in academia, and the pharmaceutical industry. This work has clinical implications for drug development and therapeutic drug delivery, making it an invaluable resource for readers. |
