Atomic spectroscopy techniques form an essential part of any elemental analysis laboratory. This book gathers together under one cover the most important techniques of atomic spectroscopy currently available. Each chapter presents the key principles of a technique, describes the associated instrumentation, and discusses representative applications.Atomic Spectroscopy in Elemental Analysis begins with a chapter on method validation relevant to all of the techniques discussed later. Each chapter that follows focuses on a particular technique and was contributed by an expert in that area. Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission (ICP-AES), glow discharge optical emission (GD-OES), microwave plasma atomic emission, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), electrothermal atomic absorption, and flame atomic absorption spectroscopy all receive due attention. The final chapter on chemometrics considers experiment design, multivariate statistics, and data analysis as they apply to atomic spectroscopy.Atomic Spectroscopy in Elemental Analysis is a one-stop resource for atomic spectroscopy techniques, instrumentation, and applications that anyone working in the field of elemental analysis will want on their reference shelf.

The design of this bed has many of the details of a traditional Arts and Crafts piece, with one notable exception. The simple lines, tapering legs, and through-joinery evoke the traditional style, but the use of veneers on the headboard and footboard adds a contemporary twist. The bed still appears to be made of solid wood, but the veneered plywood panels offer protection from wood movement and allow for perfect grain-matching and color-matching. This is also an economical way to use claro walnut. Dimensions: 68-1/2 in. wide x 84-1/4 in. long x 48-11/16 in. high What's Included: Extensive full-size and scale drawings Complete cutlist Step-by-step companion article

Dark Beauty focuses on the minute detail in Harry Clarke’s stained-glass windows, particularly in the borders and lower panels of his work. Clarke’s brilliance as a graphic artist is clearly visible in his book illustrations, which are imbued with precise attention to intricate designs, and he applied the same lavish focus to every facet of his stained glass. The title ‘Dark Beauty’ refers to the duality of Clarke’s work that sees delicate angels juxtaposed with macabre, grotesque figures, and represents the partially hidden details that dwell in the background of his windows—motifs, accessories, flora, fauna, and diminutive characters—which may be missed in light of the dominance of the central subjects. The authors spent many years photographing Clarke’s windows in Ireland, England, America, and Australia, and the resulting 60,000 photos have been carefully whittled down to 500 glorious images. Dark Beauty will provide lovers of Clarke’s stained glass with the opportunity to view previously obscured or unnoticed details in all their unique beauty and inspire their own travels to view Clarke’s work.

Harry Clarke (1889–1931) was undoubtedly Ireland's greatest stained glass artist. During his short life Harry created stained glass windows for churches, private dwellings, and commercial venues throughout Ireland and England, as well as in the United States and Australia. Also an illustrator of books for Harrap and Co. in London, Harry illustrated five books that show his undoubted genius in the area of graphic art. In total 174 windows and a small number of panels were created by Harry Clarke. This book contains the entire stained glass collection of Harry Clarke, including those windows now in art galleries. This collection has never before been photographed or published in its entirety, and will give those who are unfamiliar with the brilliance and originality of Clarke’s marvelous stained glass windows the opportunity to view images of his greatest creations.

This guidebook presents four specially devised treks in the mountains of Greece, showcasing its beautiful scenery, rich flora and cultural interest. The Peloponnese Way crosses the Peloponnese peninsula from Dhiakoftó in the north to Pantazí beach in the south, via Trípoli. Taking in alpine meadows, a dramatic gorge and forest-clad slopes, the 220km route can be walked in around a fortnight. The 460km Pindos Way is a south-north traverse of Greece's mountain backbone, and can be walked in a month, or split into sections of around a week. With remote terrain, navigational challenge and fewer facilities on route, it is the toughest of the four treks but offers a unique chance to experience both the country's wilderness and traditional mountain life. A shorter 80km Zagóri trek can be enjoyed in its own right or incorporated into the Pindos Way, and the final route explores Mt Olympus, home of the ancient gods of Greek myth and the highest mountain in Greece. With clear mapping alongside detailed route description for each stage of the treks, as well as background information about the region and a Greek-English glossary.
