Sommario/riassunto

Philosophically minded science fiction fans will rejoice in this novel from H.G. Wells, the author regarded as one of the originators of the genre who wrote classic gems such as The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine, The Invisible Man, and The Island of Doctor Moreau. Though



more grounded in realism than some of his other works, Tono-Bungay offers an interesting look into the morality of scientific discovery.

Sommario/riassunto

This volume in the Coulson and Richardson series in chemical engineering contains full worked solutions to the problems posed in volume 1.  Whilst the main volume contains illustrative worked examples throughout the text, this book contains answers to the more challenging questions posed at the end of each chapter of the main text.These questions are of both a standard and non-standard nature, and so will prove to be of interest to both academic staff teaching courses in this area and to the keen student.  Chemical engineers in industry who are looking for a standard solution to a real
