	Heat Transfer Problem Solver (Problem Solvers)
	By: The Staff of REA ISBN: 0878915575 Publisher: Research & Education Association Release Date: 1998 Bioscience book rank: 803484	I have been using the book for two years now. The problems solved in the book were straight out of real life. It reminded me of the schools days when you scanned the examples in the text book to copy the techniques for the home work problems. The verbiage in the text books before the example problems were started is gone. You will need to know your engineering and your problem to find where in the book your solution will be. But, when you find it you will feel and look like a genius to everyone else.<p>The manipulations of dimensionless groups were clear, logical and illuminating. The step by step explanations of the solutions were better than the ones in the text books.
	The New Photo Crafts: Photo Transfer Techniques and Projects for Fabric, Paper, Wood, Polymer Clay & More
	By: Suzanne J. E. Tourtillott ISBN: 1579902030 Publisher: Lark Books Release Date: 30 June, 2001 Bioscience book rank: 78118	While not completely without merits, The New Photo Crafts was a big disappointment from a publisher (Lark Books) whose books are usually exciting and interesting, both visually and instructionally. The book begins with a quick overview of photography methods, types of film & cameras, and an intro-duction to taking a "good" picture. The first chapter is perfunctory and uninspiring, but is okay as a basic (very basic) overview to get the reader started. This book, however, lacks the usual quality, visual and instructional excitement usually found in Lark books. Many of the projects are very shoddily put together: Anniversary Couple Commemorative Portrait is very roughly cut out around the edges as is the diorama photo on page 35. These projects look amateurish and slapped together. The refrigerator photo frame magnets are insultingly basic--just pieces of cut out felt with a photo sandwiched in between and a magnet glued to the back. Any half-way intelligent or talented crafter could come up with that one out on their own. The School Friends Frame was another project that was amateurish, unattractive and completely uninspiring: Photocopied, individual portrait photos of schoolmates, placed around the perimeter of a sheet of white paper with a child's drawing in the center and the whole thing plopped into a clip frame. How exciting is that to "create" to anyone more skilled than a grade schooler? The Fabric Photo Album was a mess. The fabrics and findings appeared slapped together with no thought to composition, color or pleasing arrangement. The first line in the instructions, ironically, says to "Take the time to plan the design." Perhaps the designer of this project should have taken her own advise. The book is not completely without merits, however, and there are some projects that are interesting. The lampshade project is funky and fun, and could be adapted to any size shade and fixture, with endless themes. The Flip Books are a fun project, and the Carmen Miranda doll is a real fun, funky way to use a photograph in an unexpected way. I liked the light switch plate a lot--it has clear instructions, and many possibilities depending on the type of room and photo used. The polymer clay transfers are another great idea. There are quite a few ideas for different handmade cards and folding book-type cards that are nice, too. But overall, in my opinion, this book was not worthy of the Lark name, and I couldn't recommend it to crafters who are more advanced or who are looking for something really original. This book was so much better than I thought it would be. I expected the usual tacky, cliche photo crafts, but that was not the case. There were quite a few ideas I had not seen before (and I have a LOT of craft books) and lots of other projects that were nicely updated to the tastes of today's more sophisticated crafter. I especially liked the "Vintage Print Quilt" which can easily be done by those of us that don't sew, as it's all zigzag stitching. The author uses a number of different photo materials and methods in her projects -regular photographs and prints, photocopies, image transferring to fabric and polymer clay, digital photographs and hand-colouring photos. I haven't read all the text, so I can't say if it's well written, or not, but many of the projects certainly look interesting. You will not be disappointed.

	Principles and Modern Applications of Mass Transfer Operations
	By: Jaime Benitez ISBN: 0471203440 Publisher: Wiley-Interscience Release Date: 28 May, 2002 Bioscience book rank: 871666	This book is amazing! The way the author presents the theory, formulas and applications followed by an example is an effective way to understand the material. Another good thing about the book is that at the start of every section there are objectives which gives you a scope of what are the themes that you must learn. This book is very practical, specially in chapters of absorption, desorption (packed, sieve tray) and distillation columns. What makes this book an amazing one is the integration of the mass transfer phenomena with the mathetical computer program, MathCAD to solve tedious problems. The author presents MathCAD routines in the chapters and also in some of the appendixes. All you have to do is copy those routines and you are instantly solving problems. This is very useful in the design of separation columns (chapters 4 - 6) and when calculating diffusion coefficients (chapter 1). This book is as great as its author, believe me I took some courses with him, unfortunetly I couldn't take mass transfer with him. =( If your program splits transport phenomena into separate fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and mass transfer classes, this would be an excellent text for the mass transfer class. The author does an excellent job of explaning the diference between mass transfer coefficients and diffusion coefficients compared to the generic tranport phenomena texts. He also integrates some of the recent developments in the literature into his treatise on mass transfer. Finally and the most interesting aspect of the book is the integration of a computer algebra system, specifically Mathcad into the problem solving process. Overall an excellent text. The author of this book takes a very effective approach to introduce the reader to the complexities of mass-transfer operations design. From the very beginning of the book, the author guides the reader into a hands-on approach to calculations using MathCad programs to simplify tedious calculations that are usually a roadblock to the learning process. To make it even more convenient, an ftp site is available (see the Wiley.com page for the book) from which you can download the MathCad example programs and the Solutions Manual. I think that this book will soon become the standard textbook for mass-transfer operations.

	Principles of Heat Transfer
	By: Frank Kreith, Mark S. Bohn ISBN: 0534375960 Publisher: CENGAGE-Engineering Release Date: 20 September, 2000 Bioscience book rank: 677384	I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find the solutions manual or selected answers for this book. <br />if you do would you please contact me at <br />Robert.mcnulty@colorado.edu <br />Thanks I used this book as an undergrad (ME) and I loved it. Now I'm taking the grad heat transfer class, and this book has been a great help. I am currently designing a heat exchanger and without it I would have been lost! In the words of my friend in reference to this book, "I just want to shake that man's hand for writing it" Difficult to follow and no solutions.... examples are few and far between.... By far the most worthless chemical engineering book I've used... only one I'm sure I'll sell at the end of the semester.... the author is incomplete... I found few discussions interesting... there's got to be better out there?!

	Celtic Animals Iron-on Transfer Patterns
	By: Mallory Pearce ISBN: 0486299279 Publisher: Dover Publications Release Date: 10 July, 1997 Bioscience book rank: 356018	The art is great and the transfers are of high quality. The transfers are all different sizes, from full page designs to small trim pieces. Several of the designs can be chained to create borders. Some are mirrored and others are matched multi-part designs. Excellent quality and great variety. These dazzling transfers are exciting and varied. You won't be able to contain your creative impulses when you look at them. These designs are the stuff of late night art projects. Mallory Pearce has given us a very fine collection.
