Knowledge concise summary

The Brookhart laboratory has contributed much of the knowledge of the polymerization mechanism for the late transition metal a-diimine catalysts. The review by Ittel provides a concise summary of the mechanistic understanding as of the year 2000 [26]. Some of the early findings will be reviewed here and additional insights reported afterward will be presented. In addition to the experimental work, many theoretical and computational studies worthy of discussion have also been carried out. These efforts have been most important in providing insight into the mechanistic details of the highly reactive nickel system, which is often difficult to study experimentally. 

In summary, the new edition of Spiegel s Psychopharmacologv an Introduction should finds its way to the desks and bookshelves of many individuals who are seeking an up to date, thorough, practical, readable, concise summary of the best and newest knowledge in this dynamic field of knowledge which has few peers for importance to the quality of life of the general population. 

All compounds, from the simple ones such as water and ammonia to the most complex, are held together by chemical bonds. All chemical bonds—from purely covalent to strongly ionic—act the way they do because of the nature of the atoms that form the bonds. Our knowledge of those atoms is at the heart of the science of chemistry. Understanding Richard Feynmans little particles has enabled mankind to manage the natural world to suit its needs. Feynman was undoubtedly correct when he said that the atomic hypothesis (or the atomic fact, or whatever you wish to call it) is the most concise and important summary of scientific knowledge produced by mankind. And it is crucial that every generation passes it on to the next. 

A study of the fiber industry is not complete without some knowledge of the characteristics of individual fibers. Since each is so different it is difficult to generalize or compare directly. This section presents a summary of each important fiber, including pertinent information on their manufacture, properties, uses, and current economics in a brief, informal and concise manner. 

Summaries ending each chapter are crafted to allow students to check their knowledge and revisit chapter content in a study-friendly format. Learning is reinforced through concise narrative and through Summary Tables that students hnd valuable. 

The remainder of each listing is divided into two sections, the Quick Reference Summary, which provides a concise, clinically relevant summary of the scientific information and traditional knowledge on the safety of each species or set of species, and the Review Details section, which provides details on the information presented in the summary. 

Also, for many undergraduate students it is important to get the information required in an easy and effective way. In other words, students are usually not interested in reading a whole textbook to obtain the knowledge they require for the problem-solving test next week. What they are really interested in is to see, what they need to know in the test and how to get this knowledge in the most effective way. In my experience students want a very brief( ) summary of the most important equations and concepts (perfiaps in form of a bullet point list) and how to apply them to a problem. Students also appreciate if this information is provided in a concise form as a separate section in such a way that it can be easily identified.
