Written by world-renowned and best-selling experts, Nobel Laureate E. J. Corey and Laszlo Kurti, Enantioselective Chemical Synthesis offers an authoritative and comprehensive overview of the field’s progress; the processes and tools for key formations; future development for complex, stereocontrolled (enantiomeric or diastereoisomeric) molecules; and valuable examples of multi-step syntheses. Utilizing a color-coded scheme to illustrate chemical transformations, Enantioselective Chemical Synthesis provides clear explanation and guidance through vital asymmetrical syntheses and insight into the next steps for the field. Researchers, professionals, and academics will benefit from this valuable, thorough, and unique resource. <ul>
<li>In Part I, the authors present clearly, comprehensively and concisely the most useful enantioselective processes available to synthetic chemists. </li>
<li>Part II provides an extensive discussion of the most logical ways to apply these new enantioselective methods to the planning of syntheses of stereochemically complex molecules. This hitherto neglected area is essential for the advancement of enantioselective synthesis to a more rational and powerful level. </li>
<li>Part III describes in detail many reaction sequences which have been used successfully for the construction of a wide variety of complex target molecules</li>

Youth And The State In Hungary: Capitalism, Communism and Class (Anthropology, Culture and Society)

Youth and the State in Hungary takes as its focus the nature of Hungary's youth movements over the last seventy years. In a detailed ethnographic study, Laszlo Kurti examines the lives of youth workers in the Csepel district of Budapest in the context of the wider political and economic transformations witnessed during the twentieth century. Kurti follows State-Youth relations from the inter-war capitalism that made peasants into workers, through the post war state socialism - 'Stalinism' and after - to the reintroduction of capitalism in 1990. This substantial time frame allows an exploration of the transformations and dilemmas of youth, class, gender and ethnicity as they develop across time. In the course of this study two main themes emerge: the reproduction of class in youth culture across shifting socio-economic conditions; and the mobilisation of youth movements in resistance to the state. Youth and the State in Hungary challenges the orthodox equation of youth and resistance by arguing that youth mobilisation has, in fact, served the interests of the state. Nevertheless there remains a genuine space for resistance and contestation in the reproduction of youth culture.

Explores how Transylvania figures in the Hungarian imagination and how this border region functions in the creation of national identity. The Remote Borderland explores the significance of the contested region of Transylvania to the creation of Hungarian national identity. Author László Kürti illustrates the process by which European intellectuals, politicians, and artists locate their nation’s territory, embody it with meaning, and reassert its importance at various historical junctures. The book’s discussion of the contested and negotiated nature of nationality in its East Central European setting reveals cultural assumptions profoundly mortgaged to twentieth-century notions of home, nation, state, and people. The Remote Borderland shows that it is not only important to recognize that nations are imagined, but to note how and where they are imagined in order to truly understand the transformation of European societies during the twentieth century.

Explores how Transylvania figures in the Hungarian imagination and how this border region functions in the creation of national identity. The Remote Borderland explores the significance of the contested region of Transylvania to the creation of Hungarian national identity. Author Laszlo Kurti illustrates the process by which European intellectuals, politicians, and artists locate their nation's territory, embody it with meaning, and reassert its importance at various historical junctures. The book's discussion of the contested and negotiated nature of nationality in its East Central European setting reveals cultural assumptions profoundly mortgaged to twentieth-century notions of home, nation, state, and people. The Remote Borderland shows that it is not only important to recognize that nations are imagined, but to note how and where they are imagined in order to truly understand the transformation of European societies during the twentieth century. "The most impressive aspect of this book is the very extensive field work that Kurti carried out in Hungary and Transylvania in the 1980s and 1990s. He relates not only what he learned about life in both places, before and after the collapse of communism, but also tells the story of how he experienced these changing political circumstances and how it affected his work. This is gripping stuff. Moreover, his reporting includes not only the standard stuff of ethnography, what was going on in people's lives while he was there, but also what was happening politically and in popular culture that influenced how people understood their circumstances. Tales of political actions, news reporting, an 'underground' youth culture, and the musings of literary figures are all grist for Kurti's mill." -- John W. Cole, University of Massachusetts, Amherst "The Remote Borderland lays out very intelligently a theoretical and historical problematization of Transylvanian identity from the standpoint of Hungarian and Romanian elites. It contextualizes the historical development of Transylvania as both a remote and border region within the relevant scholarship on pre and postcommunist East Europe. By so doing Kurti seeks to provoke a series of questions about the ambiguous links between nation, state, and territory--questions that have potentially broad comparative significance for anthropologists, sociologists, historians, and political scientists." -- Douglas R. Holmes, author of Cultural Disenchantments: Worker Peasantries in Northern Italy
