The aim of the book is to give practical advice for those who want to generate kinetic results, valid for scale-up, and backed by sensible theory and understandable mathematical explanation. 

In the final chapter, Nawwaf Kharma looks ahead to some of the methods that experimental scientists may be using in the coming years. While the main aim of the book is to provide an introduction to AI methods, Kharma delves more deeply into some challenging new areas, opening a window on how a computer scientist views the use of AI to solve practical problems. 

Spectroscopy in Catalysis is an introduction to the most important analytical techniques that are nowadays used in catalysis and in catalytic surface chemistry. The aim of the book is to give the reader a feeling for the type of information that characterization techniques provide about questions concerning catalysts or catalytic phenomena, in routine or more advanced applications. 

The aim of the book is to describe in all simplicity the combinatorial and quantitative science of nucleosynthesis, a pure stellar arithmetic, chaste and contemplative, cloaked in the ironic reticence of nnmbers. It is so penetrating and revealing that it may be considered as our most powerful tool for divulging the material history of the Cosmos. 

The aim of the book is to show (1) a diversity of dihydrogen bonds (2) the nature, geometry, energetics, and dynamics of these bonds and (3) the factors that control the energy of dihydrogen bonds from very weak to very strong. 

The aim of the book is not to turn non-statisticians into statisticians. I do not want you to go away from this book and do statistics. It is the job of the statistician to provide statistical input to the development plan, to individual protocols, to write the statistical analysis plan, to analyse the data and to work with medical writing in producing the clinical report also to support the company in its interactions with regulators on statistical issues. 

The aims of the book are really three-fold. Firstly, to aid communication between statisticians and non-statisticians, secondly, to help in the critical review of reports and publications and finally, to enable the more effective use of statistical arguments within the regulatory process. We will take each of these points in turn. 

Emphasis will be placed on the basic concepts underlying the treatment of actinide systems. Therefore, the aim of the book is not to be comprehensive in all aspects, but rather to present a coherent picture which may be useful to the beginner in actinides emd also to the specialist who might feel that a unified picture can help him in interpreting his results and promote further progress. Appropriate examples are chosen for this purpose. 

Theoretical concepts and the description of experimental methods utilized in actinide research are usually scattered in many textbooks and in the general literature. A further aim of the book is therefore to assemble them in a well connected way. 

The main aim of the book is to introduce the reader to the foundations of relevant chemometric methods and likewise to show for selected and typical case studies what can be achieved by using these methods in environmental analysis. It cannot be the scope of such a book, written for nonchemometricians, to give more than an introduction to chemometrics. So, highly sophisticated chemometric methods are not treated. 

This book continues in the practical tradition of chemometrics. Multivariate methods and procedures that have been found to be extraordinarily useful in analytical chemistry applications are introduced with a minimum of theoretical background. The aim of the book is to illustrate these methods through practical examples in a style that makes the material accessible to a broad audience of nonexperts. 

The basic aim of the book is to present a discussion of some currently available methods for predicting convective heat transfer rates. The main emphasis is, therefore, on the prediction of heat transfer rates rather than on the presentation of large amounts of experimental data. Attention is given to both analytical and numerical methods of analysis. Another aim of the book is to present a thorough discussion of the foundations of the subject in a clear, easy to follow, student-oriented style. 

The aim of the book was not to provide a comprehensive review, but rather to describe selected analogue classes in a more detailed manner. In support of this aim, we should point out that nine of the authors have played key roles as coinventors in the discovery of some of the very important drugs detailed in the book. 

The aim of the book is not to cover the chemistry of such systems in great detail, as this information can be found, if necessary, by consulting a range of other sources (some of which are listed in the references) but to provide specific, detailed information on the use of polymeric materials in the construction sector. As such, coverage of the important chemical details is confined to an introductory chapter, and the main chapters cover the uses of the specific materials, the technology of application and their strengths and weaknesses, as follows. 

Although the aim of the book is to provide an introduction to the field, it does so in a very applications-oriented manner. Thus, the focus of the book is practical rather than theoretical. In a systematic progression, beginning with the fundamental principles of petroleum emulsions, the reader is soon introduced to characterization techniques and fiow properties, and finally to industrial practice. Chapters 1-4 present the fundamental concepts and properties involved in emulsions within the context of their occurrence in the petroleum industry. Chapter 1 sets out the basic foundation for all subsequent chapters. Selected areas of special importance are then expanded in Chapter 2 on emulsion stability. Chapter 3 on characterization techniques, and Chapter 4 on rheological properties. All of these use petroleum emulsion examples for illustration, and in most cases cover the latest useful techniques available. 

The aim of the book is not only to present the state of the art studies on different properties of molten salt systems and their measurement, but also to present the possibilities of modeling molten salt systems, to be able to forecast the properties of an electrolyte mixture from the properties of the pure components in order to avoid experimentally demanding, and in most cases, also expensive measurements. Some direct methods of study on the structure (ionic composition) of molten electrolytes are also presented. 

The first edition of Fundamentals of Clinical Psychopharmacology was only published in 2002 but the aim of the book has always been to provide more up-to-date information than is usually available in textbooks. The field of psychophaimacology is moving rapidly and unfortunately for the contributors (and editors) this has meant having to update the information after a fairly short interval. We are grateful to eveiyone for their enthusiasm and hard work and also to the pubhshers for being able and willing to respond flexibly and quickly. This means that hopeftilly the information will still be in-date by pubhcation. 

While it will encompass many basic and general aspects of the field, the specific aim of the book is to point towards perspectives that bioinformatics can open towards the design of new drugs. It is this pharmaceutically oriented side of the field that provides the strongest fuel for the current widespread interest in bioinformatics. 

The aims of the book have been outlined in Section I examples of how these may be achieved are given in this section. 

Therefore, the aim of the book is to present practical UV spectrophotometry procedures, showing its interest for the direct examination of water and wastewater, and which can be handled with any PC-controlled spectrophotometer. From UV colorimetry to new multiwavelength approaches, water quality measurement can be carried out with a gain in time and simplicity.

According to the general aim of the book, the focus is on calorimetric measurements, which is, by definition, measurements of heat-energy relationships [4],... 

The principal aim of the book is to provide, in a single volume, the background, formalism, and application of group theoretical notion.s as they relate to molecular problems. An attempt has been made to make the pre,sentation simple, although, hopefully, not at the expense of rigor. 

This book has been written for university students studying analytical chemistry, applied chemistry, forensic chemistry, or other such courses where there is an element of HPLC within the course cmriculum. Ihe aim of the book is to explain HPLC from a forensic science perspective, and many of the examples used here are associated with real-life samples that might be expected within a forensic science laboratory. We have tried to maintain a balance between practical solutions and the theoretical considerations involved in HPLC analysis. The book takes the reader on a journey through the world of HPLC it is suitable for first-time users as well as those pursuing postgraduate study or in the early stages of their forensic analysis careers.
