MANNED SPACE FLIGHT introduces into space travel parameters that are unique. Man can live without food for a reasonably long period; without water, the period becomes quite a bit shorter; but without air, the result-almost instantaneous-is death. This would make the atmosphere the most important consideration. In fact, however, man needs all three components: oxygen, water, and food; and if anyone of them failS, he is doomed. With our space efforts approaching trips of several weeks in length and certainly heading for month-long journeys, it is most appropriate to ask: Are we ready to provide...

A comprehensive volume on interfacial catalysis, this book includes contributions from an international group of specialists in chemistry, environmental science, informatics, physiology, nuclear energy, and physics. The editor has organized the material into the main topics of fundamental characteristics, phase transfer catalysis, reversed micelles, biological aspects, and interfacial photocatalysis. Individual topics include self-organized microheterogeneous structures, nanochemistry, interfacial catalysis in metal complexation, the role of water molecules in ion transfer at the oil/water...
