Excerpt from The Absorption Spectra of Solutions as Affected by Temperature and by Dilution: A Quantitative Study of Absorption Spectra by Means of the RadiomicrometerAn investigation of the effect of temperature on the absorption spectra of certain solutions has already been carried out by Jones and Strong.1 The apparatus used was devised by Professor John A. Anderson, 2 who worked somewhat earlier with Jones on the absorption spectra of solu...

Natural hazards are natural phenomena that cause immense damage to the environment. Tornadoes, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and floods are some examples of natural disasters. There are various methods to predict or mitigate natural disasters and the damage caused. Efficient emergency management programs can provide great relief to the affected community. Identifying risks and areas of vulnerability and applying new technology for better des...

Disasters can lead to loss of human life, environmental or material loss. Whether a disaster is naturally caused or is man-made, it requires immediate attention and management. Disaster management mainly concentrates on devising and executing strategies to minimize the effect of disasters. The various advancements in disaster management are glanced at and their applications as well as ramifications are looked at in detail. Coherent flow of top...

Excerpt from The Regular Swiss Round: In Three TripsThe following little book has grown out of the Journal of the First Trip, which was used in lectures for our Reading Room at St. Luke's, and then published in the Leisure Hour under the title of The Regular Swiss Round.The Second Trip served the same purposes, and the Third, after doing duty at our Institute, is now printed for the first time.All are carefully revised, and as the record of th...

Excerpt from The Elements of Physical ChemistryIt has been the aim of the author to deal with the whole subject of physical chemistry in an elementary manner. The rapidly increasing desire, on the part of students of chemistry and physics, to know more of physical chemistry is manifesting itself in every direction. It is with the object of helping such students in the later stages of their college work and in the earlier part of their universi...

Excerpt from East and West London: Being Notes of Common Life and Pastoral Work in Saint James's, Westminster, and in Saint George's-in-the-EastI have written it with deep interest in the grave subjects of which it mainly treats, and I hope to engage the sympathy of those who are anywise concerned in promoting the welfare of their fellows, and, though they may occasionally differ from him, are willing to hear what a man of some experience has ...

Excerpt from The Electrical Nature of Matter and RadioactivityThe content of this book has already been published as a series of articles in the Electrical Review. The two correlated subjects under consideration are of such general interest, that it has seemed desirable that the discussion of them should be made accessible in compact form.The several chapters as they originally appeared have, therefore, been carefully revised, and brought toge...

Excerpt from Past and Present in the EastI have been asked to let these letters appear in a connected form within the boards of a small book. They were written in short intervals of continuous travel - some at my tent door, With groaning camels and garrulous Arabs around me - and thus do not pretend to convey thoughts which re¿ection creates, many of which I have, since, been tempted to piece into their course.About the PublisherForgotten Book...

Excerpt from The Electrical Conductivity, Dissociation, and Temperature Coefficients of Conductivity From Zero to Sixty-Five Degrees of Aqueous Solutions of a Number of Salts and Organic AcidsThe work, thus begun, was continued especially for the following reason: When reference was made to the literature for the conductivity Of any electrolyte at any given temperature, and for the temperature coefficients Of conductivity, We were frequently u...

Excerpt from Holiday PapersI live in London myself, and therefore enjoy the country with' a relish unintelligible to rustics. To me, the country is the land of ease I see the ploughman halting in the furrow, the milk maid with her pail, the hedger with his bill-hook, the reaper with his sickle, but they convey no sensation of toil. They enliven the stage of the country, they are pastoral performers. I am not quite sure, though, about the reape...

Excerpt from The Absorption Spectra of Solutions as Studied by Means of the Radiomicrometer: The Conductivities, Dissociations, and Viscosities of Solutions of Electrolytes in Aqueous, Non-Aqueous, and Mixed SolventsThe work recorded in this monograph, while apparently dealing with several subjects, is in fact closely connected, in that it all bears directly or indirectly on the present solvate theory of solution, which was pro posed in the Jo...

Excerpt from Elements of Inorganic ChemistryThe physical properties Of substances are treated rather more fully than in the earlier text-books, since the tendency today, introduced by physical chemistry, is to bring chemistry and physics more closely together, rather than to separate them as two distinct sciences. The physical properties Of a substance are taken up after its chemical properties, in order that the teacher may conveniently omit ...

Excerpt from The Economics of War and Conquest: An Examination of Mr. Norman Angell's Economic DoctrinesBut he has travelled far beyond this simple truth, and by creating controversy about assertions which are either false or incapable of proof has obscured what is beyond controversy and yet sufficient in itself. In the following pages it will be shown that some economic gain may be achieved by means of a war of conquest. But the money value o...
