Book excerpt: Written by the authors that brought you the best-selling book, Go for No! their next inspiring fable has finally arrived. The Diamond Line is a clever re-imagining of the motivational classic, Acres of Diamonds, by Russell Conwell, first published as a book in 1890. Russell Conwell not only believed it was possible for any person to become rich-he believed it was a person's duty to do so. Furthermore, Conwell felt that each of us is standing in the middle of our acres of diamonds-that everything we need to achieve success and personal wealth is right beneath our feet-if only we are able to recognize it. In The Diamond Line, You will be taken back to an imaginary moment in time before the book was written, having the chance to meet some of the greatest icons in history, including PT Barnum, Andrew Carnegie, Frederick Douglass, and several other interesting and enlightening characters.

Download or read book Diamond Willow written by Helen Frost and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR). This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's more to me than most people see. Twelve-year-old Willow would rather blend in than stick out. But she still wants to be seen for who she is. She wants her parents to notice that she is growing up. She wants her best friend to like her better than she likes a certain boy. She wants, more than anything, to mush the dogs out to her grandparents' house, by herself, with Roxy in the lead. But sometimes when it's just you, one mistake can have frightening consequences . . . And when Willow stumbles, it takes a surprising group of friends to help her make things right again. Using diamond-shaped poems inspired by forms found in polished diamond willow sticks, Helen Frost tells the moving story of Willow and her family. Hidden messages within each diamond carry the reader further, into feelings Willow doesn't reveal even to herself. Diamond Willow is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.
Download or read book El Barrio written by Humberto Cintron and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we look at a work of a creative writer it is not enough to examine form, structure and content. The life of a writer offers us glimpses into their world and insights into the history of their time that formed and informed their work. Their experiences are the foundation upon which the writer builds his or her ideas. In Humberto Cintron we find a skilled wordsmith who intimately understands the impact of structure, the emotional nuances of storytelling and how to apply these literary dynamics to communicate the passionate intensity of his intended message.
Download or read book Nanodiamonds written by Jean-Charles Arnault and published by William Andrew. This book was released on 2017-04-25 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanodiamonds: Advanced Material Analysis, Properties and Applications illustrates the complementarity of specific techniques to fully characterize nanodiamonds from their diamond core (crystalline structure, defects, sp2 carbon, impurities, strain) to their surface (surface chemistry, stability of surface groups, reactivity, surface charge, colloidal properties). The relationship between physical and chemical parameters sits at the heart of what this book is about. Recent advances in the synthesis of nanodiamonds either by HPHT or detonation are covered, along with extended characterization of the core and surface of nanodiamonds, focusing on the most advanced experimental tools developed for nanoscale diagnosis. Each technique presented includes presentation of both principles and applications. This combination of advanced characterizations offers readers a better understanding of the relationship that exists between physical and chemical parameters of nanodiamonds and their properties. In particular, the role of structural defects or chemical impurities is illustrated. Toxicity of nanodiamonds for cells is also discussed, as It is an essential issue for their bioapplications. Final sections in the book cover the main promising new advances and applications of nanodiamonds, the formation of hybrids, and their use in polymer and oil composites. - Provides a focused analysis of the relationship between the physical, chemical parameters, and properties of nanodiamonds - Allows the reader to better understand the material characterization of nanodiamonds and how they can be most successfully used - Presents R&D scientists and engineers with the information they need to understand how nanodiamonds can be used to create more efficient products - Includes novel applications, for example, the formation of hybrids based on nanodiamonds, that are covered in detail

Download or read book All carbon Composites and Hybrids written by Oxana V. Kharissova and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2021-05-07 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All-carbon composites are carbon materials reinforced with other carbon materials, typically nanostructures such as carbon nanofibers or nanotubes. There are a large number of all-carbon materials, many of which demonstrate unique and useful sets of properties. Combining and hybridising different carbon materials and nanomaterials together also opens up a number of possibilities to fine-tune the materials for desirable combinations of these properties. All-carbon Composites and Hybrids provides a broad overview of these materials including discussions of synthesis, characterisation and the applications of a wide variety of all-carbon composite materials. This will be a useful volume for any researchers interested in carbon and nanotechnology.

Download or read book GNSR 2001 written by Giacomo Messina and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation Optical spectroscopy represents one of the most powerful and useful investigation tools. Due to the broad range of applications in scientific and technological Research, its potential is very great. Among the large variety of its branches, a leading role is played by Raman spectroscopy that, allowing the non-destructive material characterisation, is the most-widely utilised diagnostic-tool in Research laboratories. An encounter opportunity for Researchers working in the Spectroscopy field is offered by the Conference organised by the National Group of Raman Spectroscopy and non-linear effects (GNSR). The GNSR Meeting represents an appointment, usually recurring every two years. Its main purpose is to act as a common forum for Spectroscopists, where the most recent and relevant Italian results and applications are presented. The GNSR Conference, hence, constitutes an opportunity for a stimulating exchange of ideas and experiences among the members of the lively Scientific Community involved, including a variety of Scientists, such as Physicists, Chemists, Engineers, Architects, Historians of Art, active in the field of Raman spectroscopy and non-linear effects. Offering the possibility of both divulging assessed results and exploring the feasibility of new projects, the GNSR Meeting promotes the advancement of Raman spectroscopy and related techniques not only in Research, but also in Industry and Education.

This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These volumes contain the invited and contributed talks of the first general Conference of the Condensed Matter Division of the European Physical Society, which took place at the campus of the University of Antwerpen (Universitaire Instelling Antwerpen) from April 9 till 11, 1980. The invited talks give a broad perspective of the current state in Europe of research in condensed matter physics. New developments and advances in experiments as well as theory are reported for 28 topics. Some of these developments, such as the recent stabilization of mono-atomic hydrogen, with the challenging prospect of Bose condensation, can be considered as major break throughs in condensed matter physics. Of the 65 invited lecturers, 54 have submitted a manuscript. The remaining talks are published as abstracts. The contents of this first volume consists of 9 plenary papers. Among the topics treated in these papers are: - electronic structure computations of iron the density functional theory hydrogen in amorphous si topologically disordered materials nuclear antiferromagnetism stabilization of mono-atomic hydrogen gas covalent and metallic glasses nonlinear excitations in ferroelectrics.
