Sommario/riassunto

This is the first collection of poetry by a writer best known for his



journalism, as editor of the Texas Observer, but also as a novelist and primary author of a groundbreaking book about U.S. intelligence agency subversion of the underground press in the U.S. The poems in the collection span the forty years in which the poet has undertaken a deeply personal attempt to understand the mystery of things. They parallel his interest in the greater world but burrow deep inside his own psyche in the attempt to find meaning. His poems include the pantheon of subjects embraced by poets through the age

Sommario/riassunto

Catalysis is central to the chemical industry, as it is directly or involved in the production of almost all useful chemical products. In this book the authors, present the definitive account of industrial catalytic processes. Throughout Fundamentals of Industrial Catalytic Processes the information is illustrated with many case studies and problems. This book is valuable to anyone wanting a clear account of industrial catalytic processes, but is particularly useful to industrial and academic chemists and engineers and graduate working on catalysis.
