Sommario/riassunto

This book makes a rare and original contribution on the history of little documented internal land conflicts and boundary misunderstandings in Cameroon, where attention has tended to focus too narrowly on international boundary conflicts such as that between Cameroon and Nigeria. The study is of the Bamenda Grassfields, the region most plagued by land and boundary conflicts in the country. Despite claims of common descent and cultural similarities by most communities in the region, relations have been tested and dominated by recurrent land and boundary conflicts since the middle of the 20th Ce

Sommario/riassunto

Atomemissionsspektrometrie ist eine sehr häufig in der Industrie benutzte Analysentechnik, um den Inhalt der Elemente in unterschiedlichen Proben zu bestimmen. Dieses Buch umfasst die Grundlagen der Methode, den Stand der Technik und vor allem praktische Aspekte zur Durchführung von AES-Analysen. Für den praktisch arbeitenden Analytiker und Forschungschemiker ist diese Publikation ist eine hervorragende Informationsquelle.

Atomic emission spectroscopy is an indispencable technique which is used in industry for quantitative and qualitative analysis of elements in solid, liquid and gaseous samples. This book encompasses the basics of the method, the state of the art and practical applications (sampling, analysis, validation, etc). This publication is an excellent information source for analytical and research chemists who perform practical element measurements.
