Dana''s New Mineralogy, Eighth Edition describes, catalogs, and classifies the more than 3,000 mineral species currently recognized. Completely rewritten from the seventh edition, the material emphasizes mineral structure and is generously supplemented with unique, specially commissioned structural diagrams. Coverage is carefully balanced, from substantial essays on important species such as calcite and groups such as the feldspars to more compact descriptions of rare minerals. Silicate minerals have been included for the first time, and are classified into homologous groups sharing a similar structure. Entries identify minerals by Dana classification number, name, and chemical formula. Descriptions contain crystallographic data and information on morphology, physical properties, composition, and relationships with other minerals. The Eighth Edition also boasts extensive data on the locations of minerals worldwide, and offers instant access to the primary literature of the past half-centuryincluding often difficult to locate sources from Eastern Europe and China. Extensive indexing makes it easy to find minerals based on proper, variant, regional, or common names. Years in the making, Dana''s New Mineralogy, Eighth Edition has been worth the wait.

La última guía de Ian Stewart sobre el cosmos describe la arquitectura del espacio y el tiempo, la materia oscura y la energía, cómo se forman las galaxias, por qué las estrellas implosionan, cómo empezo todo y como acabara. Considera universos paralelos, que forma podria tomar la vida extraterrestre y la probabilidad de que la Tierra sea golpeada por un asteroide. En terminos sencillos, explica los fundamentos de la gravedad, el espacio-tiempo, la relatividad y la teoria cuantica, y muestra como estan relacionadas entre ellas. Hace ochenta años, el descubrimiento de que el universo esta expandiendose llevo a la teoria del Big Bang sobre su origen. Esto a su vez llevo a los cosmologos a plantear elementos como la materia o la energia oscura. Pero, ¿existe la materia oscura? ¿Podria otra revolucion cientifica estar en camino para retar a la actual ortodoxia cientifica? Estas, entre otras cuestiones, son las que Ian Stewart plantea en su investigacion a traves del campo de la astronomia y la cosmologia.

This book provides an authoritative review of the origin and extraction of strontium and its impact on the environment It also presents the latest strontium decontamination and remediation strategies Around the globe nuclear power is being recognized as a major source of energy and is expected to play a crucial role in meeting the energy requirements of present day society However the pros and cons have to be considered and the safe disposal of large amounts of radionuclide wastes is becoming a matter of great concern These wastes encompass contaminants such as heavy metals and toxic substances which may exist in solid liquid or gaseous forms or a combination of these and as such their disposal requires particular attention The book focuses on 90Sr which is a predominant isotope of strontium and considered an intermediate level radioactive waste with a half life of 28 8 years average biological half life of 18 years and 546 KeV decay energy Written by expert contributors it addresses occurrence detection and extraction of strontium the chemical and nuclear properties of strontium isotopes the fate and migration of strontium in soil its bioaccumulation and its associated health impact mechanistic toxicity response as well as related regulation and
