Overview: This text outlines the fluid and thermodynamic principles that apply to all classes of turbomachines, and the material has been presented in a unified way. The approach has been used with successive groups of final year mechanical engineering students, who have helped with the development of the ideas outlined. As with these students, the reader is assumed to have a basic understanding of fluid mechanics and thermodynamics. However, the early chapters combine the relevant material with some new concepts, and provide basic reading references. Two related objectives have defined the sc

Overview: Diversity within and among living organisms is both a biological impera­ tive and a biological conundrum. Phenotypic and genotypic diversity is the critical currency ofecological interactions and the evolution of life. Thus, it is not unexpected to find vast phytochemical diversity among plants. However, among the most compelling questions which arise among those interested in ecological phytochemistry is the extent, nature, and reasons for the diversity of chemieals in plants. The idea that natural products (secondary metabolites) are accidents of metabolism and have no biological f

Overview: The growing public concern about environmental matters has prompted widespread discussion in the media. Unfortunately much of this public debate has been characterized more by ardour than by information, and often the wildest speculations are pro­ mulgated with the same appearance of veracity as hard scientific facts. It is an important, and often neglected, duty of scientific societies to make sure that the public is properly informed regard­ ing the technical aspects of matters of public interest, and to assure that policy decisions of governmental and other agencies are made with

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The volumes of this classic series, now referred to simply as "Zechmeister" after its founder, L. Zechmeister, have appeared under the Springer Imprint ever since the series‘ inauguration in 1938. The volumes contain contributions on various topics related to the origin, distribution, chemistry, synthesis, biochemistry, function or use of various classes of naturally occurring substances ranging from small molecules to biopolymers.

Overview: Philosophers have studied geometry since ancient times.Geometrical knowledge has often played the role of a laboratory forthe philosopher‘s conceptual experiments dedicated to the ideation ofpowerful theories of knowledge. Lorenzo Magnani‘s new book.Philosophy. .and Geometry. illustrates the rich intrigue ofthis fascinating story of human knowledge, providing a new analysis ofthe ideas of many scholars (including Plato, Proclus, Kant, andPoincaré), and discussing conventionalist and neopositivistperspectives and the problem of the origins of geometry. The book alsoties together the c

Overview: POPULATION GENETICS IS OFTEN THOUGHT TO BE A DIFFICULT SUBJECT. To some extent, difficulties are inevitable in a field where some quite basic points are controversial. However, problems are most acute when theoretical points are discussed, despite the fact that there has been very little controversy over the mathematics. In my experience, the actual mathematical manipulations rarely cause much difficulty. Rather it is that the biologist, lacking the physicist‘s or chemist‘s experience in "reading" mathematical formulae, finds it difficult to appreciate what is happening in a mathemat
