Learning to read is the most important task of early childhood. All parents, indeed all of us, should be concerned that the methods used to teach this crucial skill are the best possible. In this book, the author describes the findings of the most up-to-date experimental research on beginning reading instruction. However, an examination of how children are taught to read reveals a large discrepancy between the methods currently used and those ...

The International Association for Sediment Water Science sponsors a symposium triennially, during which the latest developments in the study of interactions between sediments and their overlying waters are presented. These Proceedings are a collection of papers submitted following the 7th Symposium held in Baveno, Italy, during 22-25 September, 1996. The study of sediment/water interactions crosses disciplinary and ecosystem boundaries. The wo...

Modular chemistry involves the assembly of well defined, relatively large functional structures from repetitive units that themselves are molecules of some complexity. The two most visible sources underlying modular chemistry are supramolecular (`self assembly') chemistry and polymer chemistry, but the appeal of the field is to crystallographers, solid-state chemists and physicists, small-molecule organic synthetic chemists, inorganic coordina...

Intended for researchers and students in physics, chemistry and materials science, this book provides the necessary background information and sufficient mathematical and physical detail to study the current research literature. The book begins with a survey of liquid crystal phases and field effects, together with an introduction to the basic physics of nuclear magnetic resonance. It then discusses orientational ordering and molecular field t...

The risks dealt with are set in the context of current radioactive contamination issues in the Arctic, the operation and infrastructure of the Russian Nuclear fleet, and the world-wide decommissioning of nuclear submarines. The risks involve those of spent nuclear fuel, and low and intermediate level liquid and solid wastes. Risk assessment and monitoring techniques are also dealt with.
