Liquid Chromatography Detectors (Journal of Chromatography Library) by Raymond P. W. Scott
Publisher: Elsevier Science Ltd; 2 Rev Sub edition (April 1986) | ISBN: 0444426108 | Pages: 288 | PDF | 15 MB
The renaissance of liquid chromatography took place in the late 1960's and early 1970's. The first edition of this book published in 1977 described the detectors that were available at that time and which provided a performance matching that of the contemporary equipment with which they were associated. It is interesting to note that the most popular detectors then (the UV detector, the refractometer detector, the fluorescence detector and the electrical conductivity detector) are still the most commonly used detectors nearly a decade later. Detector design, however, has changed very significantly over the intervening years. Modern high efficiency columns provide very narrow peaks and very fast separations, and thus the physical design of the detectors had to change to meet these new challenges. In 1977, there was little real understanding of the important role played by the detector in the overall function of the chromatographic system and although some of the factors were pointed out in the first edition of this book, in retrospect they appeared to be little understood. This second edition gives an entirely new presentation of the subject of liquid chromatography detectors.

Publisher: McFarland | english | ISBN: 0786442905 | edition: 2009 | PDF | 288 Pages | 14 Mb
Wisconsin is unique in the number of historic movie theatres that remain standing today.

Around 900 Wisconsin theatres are arranged alphabetically by town in entries that provide the theatre's name(s), location, number of seats, and opening and closing dates. There are 335 photographs included.

James Oliver Horton, "Slavery and the Making of America".
Publisher: Oxford University Press | english | ISBN: 019517903X | edition: 2004 | PDF | 256 Pages | 24 Mb
The history of slavery is central to understanding the history of the United States. Slavery and the Making of America offers a richly illustrated, vividly written history that illuminates the human side of this inhumane institution, presenting it largely through stories of the slaves themselves. Readers will discover a wide ranging and sharply nuanced look at American slavery, from the first Africans brought to British colonies in the early seventeenth century to the end of Reconstruction. The authors document the horrors of slavery, particularly in the deep South, and describe the valiant struggles to escape bondage, from dramatic tales of slaves such as William and Ellen Craft to Dred Scott's doomed attempt to win his freedom through the Supreme Court.

Japanese Cinema Encyclopedia: The Sex Films
By Thomas Weisser Yuko Mihara Weisser
Vital Books | November 1998 | ISBN: 9781889288529 / 1889288527
English | 637 pages | HQ PDF | 151.2 MB | RS
This book, by Thomas and Yuko Mihara Weisser of Asian Cult Cinema fame, takes on the "Pink Film" era with an unprecedented scope. The era of the "Pink Films," one of cultural and artistic daring and experimentation in Japan, has hardly been chronicled in the English language, but this book solves that problem! The book is a giant volume, filled with reviews and articles. The Weissers made it their intent to catalog every "Pink Film" that had a theatrical release, and they come as close to doing that as possible! Add to that the intelligent, thought-provoking articles on the history of the medium and an introduction by "Pink Film" star of stars, Naomi Tani, and the result is an absolutely stunning achievement in film history and criticism! A must-have work for any Japanese film completist.
