    • Useful for collegiate students as well as for those who are opting for entrance examinations.This completely new and innovative textbook provides a comprehensive account of pericyclic reactions and organic photochemistry for undergraduate and postgraduate courses. The approach is based on mechanism and reaction type, and the subject matter is developed and concentrated on better understanding rather than on merely grasping factual knowledge.Salient Features: • Basics of the subject are explained in thorough details. • Important points are revisited and mentioned wherever they are relevant. • Provides over 200 excellent thought-provoking textual problems. • Glossary and questions for self-assessment are given at the end of each chapter. • The most important aspect of this book is Chapter 14 which contains about 400 problems and their solutions based on pericyclic reactions and photochemistry. • Applied photochemistry is also discussed in the book.

    Weaning the world off oil and turning it toward hydrogen is a promissory note for a safer world." Rifkin's international bestseller The Hydrogen Economy presents the clearest, most comprehensive case for moving ourselves away from the destructive and waning years of the oil era toward a new kind of energy regime. Hydrogen-one of the most abundant substances in the universe-holds the key, Rifkin argues, to a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable world.

    The purpose of adaptation of this book is to make the learning experience more complete and help students develop a thought process about a given concept and build an aptitude to apply the same to solve a problem. The adaptation adds the distilled teaching expertise of the author to the original text, supplementing it with additional concepts and solved problems at appropriate places based on his experience of learning pattern of the students and obstacles in their learning curve.

    In this title, the treatment is made easy-to-follow by giving step-by-step derivations, explanations and by avoiding advanced mathematics unfamiliar to students. It covers: math and physics thorough review sections; and worked examples, followed by a practice exercise.

    This new edition of the model rocketeer's "bible" shows you how to safely build, launch, track, and recover model rockets--and have fun doing it. Whether you're a beginner or a veteran model rocketeer, the Handbook of Model Rocketry, the official manual of the National Association of Rocketry (NAR), will become your well-used reference book. G. Harry Stine has been a model rocketeer since 1957 when he founded the NAR and started the first model rocket company. Stine's Handbook, after satisfying rocket enthusiasts for nearly three decades, remains the definitive resource. Recent technological progress has had a major effect on the model rocket hobby and sport. This revised and updated edition covers such new technology as: revised computer programs that use improved versions of Basic composite propellant model rocket motors recently approved reloadable model rocket motors building and flying large model rockets radio-controlled boost gliders and rocket gliders solid-state, microchip, computer-readable modules used to measure temperature, pressure, acceleration, and airspeed
