Incredibly, Frankenstein—one of the most important novels in Western literature—was written by a teenager. When it was published in 1818, Mary Shelley was only 19 years old. Despite her youth, Shelley s story raises a question that is more important today that ever What is the creator s relationship to his or her creation ... 

This book is designed to provide researchers with easy access to information on Chinese medicinal herbs compiled from widely scattered sources in the Chinese and Western literature. Table 1 presents current available information on the major constituents and therapeutic values of more than 1800 species of Chinese medicinal herbs. The data are arranged alphabetically by the Latin name followed by the common Chinese and English names. Tables 2 and 3 present data on a total of 700 North American herbs belonging to the same species or genus as Chinese herbs, and a comparison of active ingredients and claimed therapeutic values. Appendices 1, 2, and 3 cross-reference Chinese and scientific names, and major active ingredients and their sources in the Chinese and North American herbs cited in the tables. 

The first equivalent circuits involving interfacial resistance were published by the Russian authors, Dolin and Erschler, in 1940. This publication came out early in World War II and was not easily available to Western electrochemists. The British electrochemist, Randies, published an analysis somewhat similar to that of Dolin and Erschler (but derived independently of them) in the Faraday Discussion of Electrode Processes of 1947. Because of the easy availability of his work, his name is associated in most Western literature with the beginning of equivalent circuit work in electrochemistry. 

At the beginning of this chapter, equations 11 and 12 were used in calculating the coefficients, Kx ( consumed ) and K2 ( assimilated ). Russian researchers usually prefer to use Kv while in western literature AT, is used because K2 is understood differently (Brett and Groves, 1979). The ratio KJK2 is known as the coefficient of food assimilation, T (equation 28), and... 

In recent western literature, Kt is interpreted as gross conversion efficiency and the western analogue of K2 is net conversion efficiency (Brett and Groves, 1979), but the biological sense of the two coefficients can be obscured by such generalized semantics. A better concept is efficiency of food consumption and assimilation for constructive processes (Zaika, 1983). 

We lead off with these quotes because they illustrate two observations. First, if one judges by the number of references to chemistry in Western literature of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, it would appear that chemical literacy was once more common. From Arthur Conan Doyle to Emily Dickinson, many of these earlier authors displayed a friendly acquaintance with the principles of chemistry and assumed a familiarity on the part of their readers, too. Such allusions to chemistry, unfortu-... 

This book is written mainly for petroleum professionals. Because overwhelming parameters are needed to describe a chemical EOR process, it is not practical to measure every one of them therefore an effort has been made to collect, synthesize, and suimnarize available data, especially Chinese information that is inaccessible in Western literature. An effort has also been made to cover comprehensively the fundamental theories and practices related to alkaline (A), surfactant (S), and polymer (P) flooding processes, especially alkaline-surfactant-polymer (ASP) flooding that has barely been discussed in any enhanced oil recovery book in English. 

Allusions An implied or indirect reference to another person or thing found in another piece of literature or in history in Western literature, quite often a reference to a figure or event in the Bible or mythology. 

The above advice on management has been culled from a study of the Western literature of mustard gas poisoning. Measures recommended by Eastern European sources differ substantially, in terms of drugs suggested, from the above. The following is taken from a Russian source. 

The interested reader should also read the discussion between Kiperman et al. (1989) from one side and Boudart (1989) from the other side, which was published under the title Classical catalytic kinetics what is the point of matter . The discussion brings up a list of important references from both the Russian and Bulgarian (Kiperman ei al.y 1989) and Western literature (Boudart, 1989).

It should be emphasized that averaging technique does not require the grid to be small compared to the layering. These results can be considered as an outgrowth of the integro-interpolation finite-difference schemes. This term first appeared in the Russian literature in the papers of Tikhonov and Samarsky in the 1960 s (in Western literature the closest related technique is called the external approximation). However, only conformal variations of conductivity were treated in the classical integro-interpolation method. 

The earliest report seen in Western literature for the use of soybean seed for animal feed was by Le Comte (1697). All the Northern and Western Provinces (in China) bear wheat, barley, several kinds of millet, and tobacco, with black and yellow pease, with which they feed horses as we do with oats. Bretschneider (1898) concurs that black and yellow peas to which Le Comte refers are varieties of the soybean. 

In Russian scientific literature a special word - cndoecology , i.e. internal ecology, has been coined to reflect the concept of human body being part of environmentj in the Western literature this word however has not been used. 

Isoelectric point is a pH value, at which electrokinetic potential C on the slip plane is equal to 0, at the participation in ion exchange only of protons H% i.e., in distilled and deionized water. In Western literature it is denoted pi or lEP. Isoelectric point of a mineral is determined by the electrokinetic method, i.e., from the pH value, at which a suspension of its particles has the lowest mobility in the electric field. Isoelectric point. As opposed to the zero charge point, isoelectric point characterizes zero charge of hydrodynamic interface, i.e., conditions when 0. 

Advective mixingis a consequence of water filtration. In the Russian hydro-geological literature this mixing as a rule is called convective. However, this term was introduced by physicists for heat transfer within one medium. In Western literature, convection is understood as the motion of molecules within one medium. And transfer of the matter by a solvent is called advec-tion, i.e., advective flux. 

SI. equal to 0 and concentration, temperature and pressure gradients are absent. They are similar to periodical action reactors, in which chemicals are loaded, mixed under assigned stable conditions and instantaneously brought to total chemical equilibrium. This type of models are intended for a forecast not of processes but the state of hydrogeochemical medium when the flow time At. and chemical relaxation time At are equal to 0. For this reason they are often called zero-dimension models (Ozyabkin, 1995 Chen Zhu, Anderson, 2002). In the Western literature they are called... 

In this chapter we will present the approach adopted by Ward and co-workers. Similar treatments have also been given independently by Yamagata and Hirota and by Slonim and Urman. Due to their appearance in the Japanese and Russian literature only, these latter previous treatments did not achieve prominence in the western literature. Furthermore, although it is perfectly possible to develop the theory in a very elementary manner, using Euler angle transformations, and this was the method of the earlier work, we choose to work here in terms of spherical harmonic analysis. The compactness of this representation has many advantages, particularly if the treatment is to be extended beyond transverse isotropy. 

The above-considered pattern provides satisfactory explanation for the mechanism of formation of metal-salt cathode deposits, so-called pears in Russian or carrots in Western literature. Such deposits are very common if the electrolysis is carried out at temperatures below the melting point of a deposited metal. A number of examples can be found in the processes of electrodeposition of refractory and other polyvalent metals (Nb, Ta, Ti, Si, B and others) in fluoride-containing molten salt electrolytes.
