I am not hurt.I don't need a second chance with him, or a life I thought I had.While he was out forgetting me to become a movie star, I was building a career out of nothing. A career as a paparazzi, but a career. For a foster kid who bounced around every home in Los Angeles, that wasn't easy.This camera is all I have.He's nothing to me. Every time I take his picture and sell it, I remind myself that I did it all without him or his approval, his cinnamon smell or his lithe body. He can light up the screen like a celestial body, but he's nothing to me.He can throw my camera off a balcony, and nothing has to change. We can stay king and queen of the same city, and different worlds.Except this is Hollywood, and here, anything can happen. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
State-of-the-art techniques for tapping the vast potential of polymersThe use of specific non-covalent interactions to control polymer structure and properties is a rapidly emerging field with applications in diverse disciplines. Molecular Recognition and Polymers covers the fundamental aspects and applications of molecular recognition-in the creation of novel polymeric materials for use in drug delivery, sensors, tissue engineering, molecular imprinting, and other areas. This reference begins by explaining the fundamentals of supramolecular polymers; it progresses to cover poly |
