NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY IN ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTRY

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has been an important analytical and qualitative tool in chemistry, material science, and organic geochemistry for quite some time, and now is becoming recognized as a valuable tool in environmental science and technology. Because it is a non- destructive and element-specific probe, it is useful for examining a myriad of environmental reactions occu…

STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT IN GOVERNMENT: EXTENDING THE REFORM MODEL IN NEW ZEALAND

The idea that government can manage itself strategically, in a similar manner to well-performing private sector organisations, has featured prominently in New Zealand’s contributions to PUMA work since 1994. The purpose of this paper is to outline the rationale for a strategic approach to government management, to describe the elements of the approach which we have developed, to assess its im…

Experimental Ethics

Academic philosophy has experienced a major upheaval in the last decade. Venturous young philosophers, psychologists, and economists have begun to challenge the traditional stance that philosophy is an undertaking best pursued from the safety and calm of an arm-chair. Instead, they took the gloves off and tried to bring philosophical ques- tions to the experimental laboratory. To date, more th…

Theory of Accumulation and Imperialism

The subject of this study is Rosa Luxemburg’s contribution to economic theory. It arose out of materials gathered for a broader monograph, on the economic views of the Polish–German socialist, that was abandoned by the author. Such a narrowing of the subject-matter may nevertheless have some practical advantages. At a certain stage of research, one of the fundamental duties of the historian…

SEXUAL LIFE IN ANCIENT INDIA

HE Mahabharata in its present form is a composition from widely separated periods in the history of Old Indian literature, and its elements are derived from various parts of the Old Indian land. It was not written by one man, but it is the work contributed by many hands. It is a growth : one piece from here, another from there ; one from this time, another from that. Like an Indian jungle it sp…

The book’s chapters follow pretty closely the actual set of steps that need to be accomplished before data can be visualized, from the design of the survey to the collection of the data to ultimately its visualization. Really pretty simple. So if you’re fairly new to the game, it is probably going to make sense for you to start at the beginning and read the whole way through the book. Likew…

The Superiority of Economists

In this essay, we investigate the dominant position of economics within the network of the social sciences in the United States. We begin by documenting the relative insularity of economics, using bibliometric data. Next we analyze the tight management of the field from the top down, which gives economics its characteristic hierarchical structure. Economists also distinguish themselves from…
