A quarter of a century ago the author stepped into Jens Oddershede s office and asked for support on a problem involving computation with atomic wave functions in connection with a new theoretical scheme to treat stopping of charged particles at intermediate speed. This visit resulted in two related publications, two joint papers and a number of follow-up studies by Jens and several others. In 1989 a Sanibel Symposium was devoted to aspects of the penetration of charged particles through matter, and since then, quite a few quantum chemists have joined the community of theoreticians dealing with particle penetration. 

Cook, Philip J., and Jens Ludwig. Gun Violence The Real Costs. New York Oxford University Press, 2000. The authors, both public policy experts, painstakingly calculate the total economic impact of gun violence. They consider it to be a major public health problem that costs Americans about 100 billion a year, including both the direct costs of injury and the cost of increased security at airports and schools. However, the authors take a moderate stance on gun control, advocating registration of handguns and stricter enforcement and increased sentencing for gun-related crimes. 

Both the cooperative JT effect in its traditional form and the OOA has a reach list of applications discussed in many related publications. Numbered in thousands, they all cannot be reviewed in one paper. Therefore, in no way the present work can be considered as a comprehensive review of either one of these two approaches. Fortunately, some JT crystals, mostly perovskites, were considered by different authors in both ways, applying the OOA and the traditional approach. This provides an opportunity to compare their results using as example a relatively short list of JT crystals. Regarding the cooperative JT effect, an updated review is provided by Kaplan in the present book [6]. For the OOA, its most important details can be found in the fundamental review by Kugel and Khomskii [9]. Recent results were reviewed by Khomskii [10] and Khaliullin [11]. 

We do hope that all those active in the pharmaceutical industry (in particular in analytics, research and development, quality control or related areas), ancillary industry, public health authorities or public health labs, regulatory authorities, universities, forensic medicine etc. will benefit from the use of this new and convenient collection of spectra on CD-ROM. 

Since public participation is a very important part of in EIA studies, care should be taken by the decisive authorities, to include the varying ideas of many of the related public and not to be affected only from the ideas of the political lobbies, and to be able to distinguish real public concerns. 

We now proceed through with our commentary on the thermochemistry of other sulphonic acids and their derivatives. Although we began our literature search with 1941 so as to cover the 50 years before the publication of this volume, the earliest relevant reference is from 1944. In it18, Roth and Rist-Schumacher determined the heat of combustion, AHc (at constant pressure), of n-dodecane-1-sulphonic acid (18) to be 1868.0 3.7 kcal mol-1. These authors related this quantity to the heat of reaction of 69 4 kcal mol-1 that would be liberated by the hypothetical reaction 7... 

To the best of my knowledge, Xenakis and Tondre [12] were the first to use the term microemulsion liquid membrane with reference to a system using an oil-in-water microemulsion to separate oil-soluble components in a U-tube configuration. In a closely related publication [13], the same authors showed the generality of the idea by reversing the transport, using water-in-oil microemulsions to separate and to concentrate water-soluble solutes. 

Lyn Bates has written many technical papers and publications on aspects of bulk solids handling. This book complements related publications by the BMHB, which include the author s earlier book A User Guide to Segregation , as well as User Guide to Particle Attrition in Mechanical Handling Equipment , prepared by a working party chaired by Lyn Bates. 

Considering the rapid increase in the number of SFM-related publications in the field of polymers, it is necessary to focus on key areas and make a narrow selection of the discussed material. The author would like to offer his apologies to those authors who consider possible omissions as negligence by the author. Whenever possible and appropriate, references to the many excellent reviews on particular topics have been included. 

Many activities are presented but the benefits of cadi are not the same. For example, there is no viable alternative to air travel, but there are alternatives to producing electricity with nuclear power plants. A better comparison would be between alternative methods for producing the same quantity. This was not done because the authors of WASH-1400 wanted to relate the risk of national nuclear power usage to risks with which the public is more familiar. 

The Safe Drinking Water Act protects the quality of drinking water in the IJ.S. This law focu.ses on all waters actually or potentially designated for drinking use, whether above or below ground. The Act authorized EPA to establish safe standards of purity and required all owners or operators of public water systems to comply with primary (health-related) standards. State governments, that assume this power from EPA, also encourage attainment of secondary standards (nuisance-related).
