Sometimes my sense of the absurd found its way into my books. A few publishers gave me complete license for my book content and layout, and my love for the absurd reached new heights when St. Martin s Press published my hook Mazes for the Mind. Why on page 417 do we find the photo of people waiting to get on a bus There is no reason at all. Yet neither the publisher nor any readers questioned it. 

Geological Society Special Publications are included in the ISI Index of Scientific Book Contents, but they do not have an impact factor, the latter being applicable only to journals. 

In the following, the reader is introduced to the book contents by illustrating in... 

A brief description of the books contents may be helpful. Chapter 1 by M. Okoroafor and K.C. Frisch is an introduction and also covers the subject of foam formation. The chapter includes a discussion of the Montreal Protocol mandating the development of foams with substantially reduced CFC content by 1995. Chapter 2 is a comprehensive discussion of thermosetting foams of all types, with the emphasis on urethane and phenolic foams. The authors, K. Ashida and K. Iwasaki, are recognized authorities in their fields of specialization. This chapter presents extensive discussions of such fields as composites and syntactic foams. There is some overlap between this chapter and topics covered in later chapters, but the treatments are different.

With reference to the book content, the authors divided it into 11 chapters. The book starts with an overview on membrane selective membranes integrated in the chemical reaction environment. The thermodynamics and kinetics of membrane reactors are also formulated and assessed for different membrane reactor architectures. 

The AR companion website is intended to be used in conjunction with the book content. We aim to periodically update the website with new content and amendments to problems. 

The book content is arranged into three parts. Part I covers the fundamentals of colloid science. This is intended for soil scientists and other researchers not familiar with these principles. Because of that, and as there are many excellent books covering colloid and interface science fundamentals (Verwey and Overbeek 1948 Shaw 1992 Lyklema 1995 Birdi 1997 Hiemenz and Rajagopalan 1997 Hubbard 2002 Shchukin et al. 2002 Birdi 2009), this part discusses all the important concepts but without too much detail, such as extensive mathematical derivations. Part II deals with soil composition and its components, especially the main ones clay and oxide minerals and humic substances. In a similar way to Part I, this is mainly intended for scientists and... 

Book content is otganized in seven chapters and one Appendix. Chapter 1 is devoted to the fnndamental principles of piezoelectricity and its application including related histoiy of phenomenon discoveiy. A brief description of crystallography and tensor analysis needed for the piezoelectricity forms the content of Chap. 2. Covariant and contravariant formulation of tensor analysis is omitted in the new edition with respect to the old one. Chapter 3 is focused on the definition and basic properties of linear elastic properties of solids. Necessary thermodynamic description of piezoelectricity, definition of coupled field material coefficients and linear constitutive equations are discussed in Chap. 4. Piezoelectricity and its properties, tensor coefficients and their difierent possibilities, ferroelectricity, ferroics and physical models of it are given in Chap. 5. Chapter 6. is substantially enlarged in this new edition and it is focused especially on non-linear phenomena in electroelasticity. Chapter 7. has been also enlarged due to mary new materials and their properties which appeared since the last book edition in 1980. This chapter includes lot of helpful tables with the material data for the most today s applied materials. Finally, Appendix contains material tensor tables for the electromechanical coefficients listed in matrix form for reader s easy use and convenience.

Each interview was transcribed in full. It is clear from the outline of our interview approach that many sections could potentially give information about the authors conceptual understanding. Working both individually and collectively, we analyzed the transcript carefidly for indications of the auflior s understanding of current and voltage (and related terms), and for their explanations of aspects of book content and sequence. For each textbook one of us initially analyzed the relevant parts of the book by section, under three headings Section description comment/quotes , Comments/quotes on Current , and Comments/quotes on Voltage . We then collectively considered the analysis, refined it, and formed conclusions about the book s approach. 

Docear is an academic literature suite , which allowed us to increase our structuring and sharing of information. This mind map based tool greatly aided in managing our book content. We feel that if used properly, Docear can provide an excellent framework to tie the safety management system elements and their information together so that they can be tracked and accessed effectively and efficiently (Docear, n.d.).
