Lawrence M. Principe, Evidence for Transmutation in Seventeenth Century Alchemy, 151-64, in Scientific Evidence Philosophical Theories and Applications, ed. Peter Achinstein (Baltimore Johns Hopkins Press, 2005) on the acceptability of chrysopoetic endeavors for intellectuals, see Principe, D. G. Morhof s Analysis and Defence of Transmutational Alchemy, 138-53 in Mapping the World of Learning The Polyhistor of Daniel Georg Morhof Wolfenbiittler Forschungen 91 (Wiesbaden Harrassowitz, 2000). [Pg.21]

Books were important to Beddoes, except for novels, which he found unsettling and which he regarded as positively unhealthy, especially for women.29 His library and the books he borrowed were his pass-key to the international world of learning. He did not allow revolutions or wars or delinquent librarians to block his access to them. [Pg.160]

The Administrator of the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium explores the idea that the relations between the economy and the world of learning and research are changing under the pressure of the scientific revolution, as the economy of the developed world is Increasingly based on high technology and applied science. [Pg.116]

Further details concerning Commonwealth societies are given in the World of Learning, the Commonwealth Year Book and the Commonwealth Universities Yearbook. Information can also be obtained in London from the Scientific Liaison Officers of the Individual countries (Africa House, Kingsway, London, W.C.2). [Pg.176]

Each chapter in this book provides many problems of different sorts. The inchapter problems are placed for immediate reinforcement of ideas just learned, while end-of-ebapter problems provide additional practice and are of several types. They begin with a short section called "Visualizing Chemistry," which helps you "see" the microscopic world of molecules and provides practice for working in three dimensions. After the visualizations are many "Additional Problems." Early problems are primarily of the drill type, providing an opportunity for you to practice your command of the fundamentals. Later problems rend to be more thought-provoking, and some are real challenges. [Pg.27]

Eormal education and induction training alone do not fully prepare individuals for the world of work continuous learning by way of a variety of learning methods is the only way to achieve maximum performance. [Pg.3]

Then, once the desired fluorine-containing compounds have been synthesized, the real fun begins as the world of fluorine NMR is entered. However, one s first encounter with fluorine NMR can also present a problem because although most synthetic organic chemists are thoroughly familiar with the use of proton and carbon NMR for compound characterization, few have much experience with the use of fluorine NMR for that purpose. Moreover, there is presently no single place where a person can turn to obtain a concise but thorough introduction to fluorine NMR itself and, just as importantly, to learn how the presence of fluorine substituents can enhance the efficacy of both proton and carbon NMR as tools for structure characterization. [Pg.12]

As we take our first steps into the world of troubleshooting, we must consciously attempt to leave our perceptions, presumptions, and past intuition behind us. We must start afresh, and learn to analyze whatever lies ahead, with the due diligence of an unremarkable, but assiduous engineer. Because nothing really is what it seems to be. [Pg.17]

In conclusion, lobsters are excellent models to learn about the natural world of odor dynamics, but they are probably not unique they are... [Pg.167]

Many things are currently in a state of flux within the world of medical education and training, and the way in which candidates approach examinations is no exception. Gone are the days when large weighty works are the first port of call from which to start the learning experience. Trainees know that there are more efficient ways to get their heads around the concepts that are required in order to make sense of the facts. [Pg.263]

Eric R. Kandel, a professor at Columbia University, is one of the world leaders in the science of the central nervous system, which he prefers to call the science of mind. A winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology in 2000, together with Arvid Carlsson and Paul Greengard, for his studies on the mechanism of learning, he has written the history of his life in science in an elegant book In Search of Memory. In this book, Kandel defines five principles of the science of mind. Here they are (and I quote directly) ... [Pg.282]
