This book provides a complete exposition of the theory of nuclear magnetic relaxation caused by the thermal motion of the molecule containing the relaxing nucleus. The author begins by defining the physical quantities encountered in nuclear magnetic resonance studies and surveying pioneering investigations in the field. Nuclear magnetic relaxation by scalar, dipolar, quadrupolar and spin-rotational interactions and by anisotropic chemical shift are then examined in detail. Relaxation rates are expressed in terms of spectral densities, and the values of the spectral densities for various molecular shapes are calculated by random walk or Brownian motion dynamics. The text should be within the grasp of readers who have taken undergraduate courses in electromagnetic theory and in classical and quantum mechanics, although topics in these fields of particular relevance are to be found in appendices. This book will be of value to postgraduate students and research workers using n.m.r. in physics and physical chemistry departments, and by scientists in industrial and medical research.

As an orphan, life was not easy for James McConnell. He also battled with fear for many years but soon ‘learned to whistle’ as he would say. But it would be that fear that would lead him down a dark entry with two half-bricks in his hands. He would have to combat the fear and defeat it completely to be the man of God that he was called to be. Read how he went from having a congregation of 10 to a 3,500 seat auditorium in the 1980s before the term 'mega-church’ was even born. And the week two souls became two great evangelists: Sydney Murray (renowned Northern Ireland evangelist) and Bob (Robert) Gass (renowned international evangelist, and writer of UCB ‘Word for Today’). Read about Pastor McConnell's fight with cancer and the church split. There's also the truth behind the Islam remarks and the impending jail sentence, the trashing of a children's orphanage, to leaving a legacy of great pastors and works around the world. ‘Fear’ will become past-tense as you read ‘The Good, The Bad &amp; Jesus Christ.’

THE MAN THE TECH-MEN MADE by Fox B. Holden He was a man of a hundred planets, drawn from the blackness of space to save a tech-galaxy from disintegration. He was Kane, the warrior-mechanic...memory king of knowledgless worlds...savior to millions...heretic to the ruling—so they threw a dragnet over the stars to stop him. 7x10 110 pages ISBN: 1-59798-590-2 ISBN-13: 978-1-59798-590-1 Cover Artist: Kelly Freas

In 1915, James Roger McConnell enlisted as a US volunteer in the French Flying Corps. He was part of a remarkable band of American volunteers, which were formed into the famous American ‘Lafayette’ Escadrille. ‘Flying for France’ was his personal account of the war in the air as seen through the eyes a front-line pilot of the American Escadrille, which was then based at Verdun. His memoirs produce an amazing insight into the early aerial battles and trace the evolution of aerial warfare as the rickety aircraft of 1915 rapidly evolved into the purpose built fighters of 1917.Casualties among the American Escadrille were very high and McConnell’s own luck finally ran out when he was ambushed by two German fighters and was killed in action in March 1917. His gripping and detailed memoir of the war is his lasting memorial; only ‘Sagittarius Rising’ matches his honest account of the everyday life of a pilot in the Great War. However his dramatic description of the battlefield of Verdun viewed from above is one of the classic descriptions of any wartime memoir and is unmatched by any other Great War writer.McConnell’s memoir is made all the more moving by the fact that the reader is aware that the writer’s life will soon be cut tragically short. Essential reading for anyone interested in military history or aviation.
