    About this ebook

    Studies in Analytical Chemistry, Volume 4: Guide-Lines to Planning Atomic Spectrometric Analysis covers the physico-chemical background of atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) and atomic emission spectrometry (AES).

    This book is composed of six chapters and begins with an introduction to the criteria on choosing the best and most suitable method for solving a given analytical problem. The next chapters deal with the properties, generation, and absorption of electromagnetic radiation, as well as the theory of atomic spectra that require knowledge of X-ray. Other chapters discuss the broadening of atomic lines, which is important for understanding that calibration curves in AAS are always bent. A chapter examines the sensitivity of determination by AAS and AES. The last chapter describes the spectrometric measurement of atomic absorption and emission. This chapter also looks into the influence of the design of the monochromator upon the measured emission intensity and calibration curve by AAS.

    This book will prove useful to analytical chemists and researchers.

      I really enjoyed the book and the boys loved it.
    • 3/5
      I'm not a horse person and not particularly fond of horse books. Therefore, I have little to compare this one too as a "horse" book. It was a pleasant and easy read, based on the real story of the sire of the Morgan Horse Breed. As such, it would appeal to young child interested in horses and early American History. For myself, it wasn't the best Newbery book I read, but it was decent.

      ?Well, the farmer didn?t want to be beholden to anyone; so he gave the singing master a fine big colt named Ebenezer. And for good measure he threw in a mite of a colt called Little Bub. And that Little Bub?? Joel paused, smiling awkwardly. ?He be the one who took on the schoolmaster?s name, Justin Morgan.?This is a darling children?s book about the horse line called the Morgan Horse. The book starts in the late 1700s, telling the story of the earliest traceable horse in the line. When a schoolmaster takes a student with him on a trip to the Green Mountains to visit Farmer Beane in Springfield to get some money which was owed him, the story of the Morgan horse is born. Instead of his money, Justin Morgan receives two colts ? Ebenezer and Little Bub. Joel Goss, the student who comes along for the adventure, loves Little Bub from the very beginning. The beauty of the book is the love story between boy and horse throughout the years. There is quite an interesting list of books consulted listed in the back, along with descendants of the book?s subjects. The illustrations by Wesley Dennis were a beautiful addition to the story.

      Love this story. I've read it a dozen times easily - it takes me maybe an hour - but in that time, there's a lot of richness. Simple language expressing some very strong emotions and bonding between the boy and the horse, and between the boy and his various friends. I don't know how accurate the history is - I suspect the general outline is correct (a schoolmaster was given a colt in payment of a debt, the colt turned out to be both a good worker and a fast runner, possibly the part about carrying President Monroe for a few minutes); the details, especially Joel's feelings for and care of the colt may be invented. Not sure about the part where a "dark-eyed stranger" paid a lot of money for the horse and, apparently, then sold him to a bad master, or a series of bad masters. That seems awfully convenient, story-wise - and awfully similar to King of the Wind, also by Marguerite Henry. But true or not, it's a great story, and one that rewards rereading.

      A childhood favorite re-visited.Is the story as good as I remember? ? YesWhat ages would I recommend it too? ? All ages. Children will enjoy the single storyline; while adults enjoy an easy afternoon read (especially while waiting on a bus, show, doctor, or other appointments).Length? ? Reasonable for an afternoon.Characters? ? Memorable, and few enough that you won?t forget who is who.Setting? ? Real world, even includes President James Monroe.Written approximately? ? 1954.Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? ? Yes! By the end Joel is an adult, yet he still seems to be written about as a kid with no family relationships. Did he marry? Did he speak to either of his parents again? Is this to keep characters down? What really happened to this very real character? What happens to the horse after his return. How long did the horse live?Any issues the author (or more recent publisher) should cover? ? Yes. At one point Joel attempts to buy his horse back with $5.00. How much would that $5.00 be today? What about the $25.00 he does eventually buy the horse back for, how much is that worth today? (I can just imagine a kid reading this and asking their parent to go buy them a horse for $5.00.)
