Review The Pedersen Memorial Issue (Advances in Inclusion Science) / Springer:This volume is dedicated to the memory of the late Charles J. Pedersen in recognition of his outstanding contribution to scientific research, culminating in his discovery of crown ethers and their remarkable cation complexing properties and his receipt of the 1987 Nobel Prize for Chemistry. The field of macrocyclic chemistry, to a large degree, had its beginnings with Professor Pedersen's discovery. A first-person account of this discovery is given as the first paper in this volume. The growth of the field since the first publication on the subject in 1967 has been enormous. Charles Pedersen lived to see much of this growth. He saw many of his own predictions of possible uses of crown ethers and related macrocycles realized. His work illustrates how one individual can make an enormous difference in science. The effect of his life and work on those who contributed papers for this volume and on many others is appreciated and is acknowledged by several of the authors in their individual papers.

Review Engineering Ceramics '96: Higher Reliability through Processing (NATO Science Partnership Sub-Series: 3:) / Springer:There has been significant progress in the development of engineering ceramics, but their mass production still presents difficulties. All processing techniques - powder production, mixing, forming and sintering - are equally important and all can introduce defects into the material. The properties of ceramics can be considerably improved by creating composites, whether at micro or macro level. The papers presented here are grouped under three headings. The first, `Advanced Powderless and Powder Processing' covers the latest advances in the preparation of powders, hybrid processing from organometallic precursors and in situ reactions. `Engineering Ceramic Monoliths and Composites' describes the advanced processing of various composite and SiAlON materials. The last section, `Advances in Mechanical, Thermal and Physical Properties through Processing' studies factors influencing the properties of ceramic monoliths and composites, the emphasis being on the provision of processing advice.
