Overview: The intellectual and utilitarian opportunities that lie at the frontiers of chemistry have been recently emphasized by the Pimentel Report. Such report recommends that in the field of chemical research priority should be given to "understanding chemical reactivity" and proposes initiatives aimed at the clarification of factors that control the rates of reaction and the development of new synthetic pathways for chemical change. In the broad field of chemical reactivity, a discipline that has grown with an extraordinary rate is photochemistry. Since the knowledge of the photochemical p

Overview: Highlights the migrant workers’ housing rights in China’s primary cities and includes also cases studies from Latin America and India.Written from a human-rights-orientated perspective and space-citiz.The great migration of farmers leaving rural China to work and live in big cities as ‘floaters‘ has been an on-going debate in China for the past three decades.

In revealing and explaining the socio-spatial injustice, th

Overview: This book uses a model we have developed for teaching mathematical statistics through in depth case studies. Traditional statistics texts have many small numer ical examples in each chapter to illustrate a topic in statistical theory. Here, we instead make a case study the centerpiece of each chapter. The case studies, which we call labs, raise interesting scienti?c questions, and ?guring out how to answer a question is the starting point for developing statistical theory. The labs are substan tial exercises; they have nontrivial solutions that leave room for different analyses of th
