Elemental data is presented in fact tables which include numerous physical and thermodynamic properties, isotope lists, radiation absorption characteristics, NMR parameters, and others. Further pertinent data is supplied in additional tables throughout the text. Published in Swedish in three volumes from 1998 to 2000, the contents have been revised and expanded by the author for this English edition.Content: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–22): Chapter 2 About Matter (pages 23–54): Chapter 3 The Elements – Origin, Occurrence, Discovery and Names (pages 55–78): Chapter 4 Geochemistry (pages 79–97): Chapter 5 Gold (pages 99–121): Chapter 6 Silver (pages 123–138): Chapter 7 Copper (pages 139–165): Chapter 8 Iron (pages 167–214): Chapter 9 Hydrogen (pages 215–234): Chapter 10 Blowpipe and Spectroscope – Important Tools for Discovering Elements (pages 235–257): Chapter 11 Sodium and Potassium (pages 259–285): Chapter 12 Lithium (pages 287–300): Chapter 13 Rubidium and Cesium (pages 301–313): Chapter 14 Magnesium and Calcium (pages 315–339): Chapter 15 Beryllium (pages 341–353): Chapter 16 Strontium and Barium (pages 355–372): Chapter 17 Scandium, Yttrium, Lanthanum and the 14 Lanthanides – Rare Earth Metals (REMs) (pages 373–492): Chapter 18 Titanium (pages 493–509): Chapter 19 Zirconium (pages 511–522): Chapter 20 Hafnium (pages 523–529): Chapter 21 Vanadium (pages 531–547): Chapter 22 Niobium (pages 549–560): Chapter 23 Tantalum (pages 561–570): Chapter 24 Chromium (pages 571–588): Chapter 25 Molybdenum (pages 589–604): Chapter 26 Tungsten (pages 605–623): Chapter 27 Manganese (pages 625–642): Chapter 28 Technetium (pages 643–654): Chapter 29 Rhenium (pages 655–666): Chapter 30 Cobalt (pages 667–683): Chapter 31 Nickel (pages 685–706): Chapter 32 Platinum Group Metals (pages 707–757): Chapter 33 Zinc (pages 759–776): Chapter 34 Cadmium (pages 777–790): Chapter 35 Mercury (pages 791–804): Chapter 36 Boron (pages 805–818): Chapter 37 Aluminum (pages 819–843): Chapter 38 Gallium, Indium and Thallium (pages 845–867): Chapter 39 Carbon (pages 869–895): Chapter 40 Silicon (pages 897–921): Chapter 41 Germanium (pages 923–933): Chapter 42 Tin (pages 935–947): Chapter 43 Lead (pages 949–970): Chapter 44 Nitrogen (pages 971–988): Chapter 45 Phosphorus (pages 989–999): Chapter 46 Arsenic, Antimony and Bismuth (pages 1001–1026): Chapter 47 Oxygen (pages 1027–1044): Chapter 48 Sulfur (pages 1045–1058): Chapter 49 Selenium and Tellurium (pages 1059–1071): Chapter 50 Halogens (pages 1073–1108): Chapter 51 Noble Gases (pages 1109–1140): Chapter 52 Radioactive Elements (pages 1141–1214):

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
