UNDER THE CLOSE WATCH OF HER ALL-TOO-HANDSOME AGENT PROTECTOR, ONE WOMAN NEVER FELT SO EXPOSED…After escaping an obsessive serial killer, Dr. Cara Messinger hoped to forget her days in captivity. But life would never go back to normal. Dash Adams and his proposition saw to that. The hands-on FBI agent could protect the half-Navajo beauty–but only if she gave up all control.Whisked away to a safe house on a remote sandstone mesa, Cara felt her world closing in. It was only a matter of time before the killer came back for her. But Cara was more than an innocent victim. She was tired of running, and Dash was a man of action who showed little restraint. And with their business becoming more than personal, could he protect her against a killer who knew no boundaries?

This second edition of a popular textbook is thoroughly revised with around 25% new and updated content. It provides an introduction to both plasma physics and fusion technology at a level that can be understood by advanced undergraduates and graduate students in the physical sciences and related engineering disciplines. As such, the contents cover various plasma confinement concepts, the support technologies needed to confine the plasma, and the designs of ITER as well as future fusion reactors. With end of chapter problems for use in courses.

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is critical for those dealing with toxic, infectious, and radioactive materials. An easily accessible guide for professionals and researchers in all PPE fields, this book takes a fresh look at how PPE is designed, selected, and used in today's emergency response environment where users may need to be protected against deliberately used chemical, biological, or radiological agents in terrorism or warfare scenarios as well as more traditional hazards. Covering the physics, chemistry, and physiology of these hazards, the book explains how PPE protects from various forms of hazards as well as how to use this information to select PPE against these highly hazardous substances for first responder or military users. The design of PPE and components plus relevant performance and evaluation standards are also discussed.

An indispensable reference for any practicing synthetic organic or medicinal chemist, this book continues the tradition of Greene’s as comprehensive in the overall scope of coverage, providing the most relevant and useful examples to illustrate each methodology. • Presents valuable material, on the application of protective groups in organic chemistry, that is not easily found by casual searching • Helps chemists to plan, investigate, and carry out organic syntheses in an efficient manner • Adds over 2800 new references to update since the publication of the last edition • Reviews of the prior edition: «An essential bible for the library or personal bookshelf of chemists performing complex synthesis.» (CHOICE, May 2007) «…the most up-to-date compilation available…should be an integral part of all institutional libraries…it is also highly recommended that individuals…maintain their own copy…» (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, March 8, 2007) «…continues to be a comprehensive guide to the techniques for the formation and cleavage of protective groups.» (Journal of the American Chemical Society, January 31, 2007)
