"This book aims at bridging the concepts and theory of chemistry with examples from fields of practical application, thus reinforcing the connection between science and engineering. Written primarily for use as a textbook for a university-level course, the topics covered here provide the fundamental tools necessary for an accomplished engineer." --Back Cover.

A committee is not the same thing as a team. To become a great team, a group must have a goal that is deeply challenging, a leader who is creatively empowering, and a willingness to work within a collaborative community that honors the Bible. The Bible is full of examples of great things accomplished through teaming leaders. Scripture also provides a compelling model from which church communities and teams can learn to live and serve in light of the "Divine Team"--The Trinity. Author Robert C. Crosby provides several innovative ways in which biblical teams reflect the workings and nature of the Trinity and thus the image of God. Revealing what he calls "The Four C's of Great Teams"--The Character, The Carrot, The Coach, and The Context - Crosby shows how successful teams reach their goals more effectively. Conversely, he also addresses the "Four Fatal Teaming Errors" and how to avoid unnecessary, time-consuming missteps. This book provides biblical motivations, vivid examples, and practical approaches for creating a teaming culture in any faith community. Crosby, a leader who has built teams as a senior pastor, youth leader, and university administrator, is now training and mentoring a new generation of pastors and leaders.

This volume, which coincides with the centennial anniversary of the publication of the celebrated monograph The General Problem of the Stability Motion by A.M. Liapunov, reviews the current state of the art of the theory and applications of the Liapunov methods. The book contains an Introduction and four chapters. Chapter 2 presents some general results in stability theory. The remaining chapters deal with applications in power engineering, chemical engineering, and in non-engineering fields such as economics and in the modelling of interacting species. The beauty of the results obtained, the diversity of mathematical tools employed, and the described approach to mathematical modelling provide stimulating considerations for applications in many other fields. For mathematicians and engineers whose work involves the study and applications of stability theory in systems.

Chemistry is an exciting science, but students can't really get excited by simply being told that a solution's color will change from red to blue, or that a white precipitate will form, or that a gas will be evolved, or that the material will begin to glow. No, they need to see these changes for themselves if they are to be excited by, and really understand, the concepts of chemistry. This useful book contains 101 demonstrations that enable teachers to illustrate the chemical principles being taught in the classroom. Topics include physical properties, reactions involving gases, energy changes, solutions and solubility, kinetics and equilibrium, acids and bases, oxidation-reduction, and electrochemistry. Each demonstration is described step by step along with safety information, a materials list, and notes on the science and history. Many of these demonstrations can be used as starting points for science fair projects. This valuable book contains a wealth of information for every chemistry teacher.
