Excerpt from Lecture Notes on General and Special Mineralogy Whatever their nature, they are generally of microscopic size; Thus we often find needles of Rutile and Tourmaline in Quartz. Magnetite in Muscovite Mica; Asbestos or Amphibole and Pyrite in Quartz and Calcite. We also find small cavities filled with water, solutions of salts, hydrocarbon compounds, and liquid or gaseous carbon dioxide. The Quartz crystals in 9. Granite at Branchville, Conn., contain so much liquid carbon dioxide that they are said to explode with considerable noise when broken. Many Topazes also contain the same substance. It is also quite com mon to find glassy inclusions in the minerals found in some lavas, as Leucite in some of the Italian rocks. The use of the microscope in the examination of thin sect-ions of rocks has shown how com mon all these different kinds of inclusions are. Minerals, then, have their homogeneity locally disturbed by all such inclusions as have been mentioned; but if we consider the mineral apart from the inclusion, it is homogeneous. Theoretically it is possible to separate these inclusions from the parent mineral, but practically, on account of the microscopic fineness to which they are sometimes reduced, the feat is often impossible. However, we may disregard such slight disturbances of homogeneity and consider the sub stance as a mineral, though in reality it is a mineral aggregate. If we use the word mineral in the most exclusive maxmer, then all inorganic secretions and concretions which have been made by animals or vegetables are not to be classed as minerals. Examples of such substances of animal origin would be corals, shells, and bones; while coal, amber, and infusorial earth represent the vego table kingdom. Neither are artificial inorganic substances made by man in his laboratory to be considered as minerals; so that all these facts show us that there are many inorganic substances which do not come within the province of Mineralogy, which is a branch of Inorganography, if I may coin a word which is used in other languages but not in English, which therefore is a more com prehensive subject than Mineralogy.

Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

Concepts of Biology is designed for the single-semester introduction to biology course for non-science majors, which for many students is their only college-level science course. As such, this course represents an important opportunity for students to develop the necessary knowledge, tools, and skills to make informed decisions as they continue with their lives. Rather than being mired down with facts and vocabulary, the typical non-science major student needs information presented in a way that is easy to read and understand. Even more importantly, the content should be meaningful. Students do much better when they understand why biology is relevant to their everyday lives. For these reasons, Concepts of Biology is grounded on an evolutionary basis and includes exciting features that highlight careers in the biological sciences and everyday applications of the concepts at hand.We also strive to show the interconnectedness of topics within this extremely broad discipline. In order to meet the needs of today's instructors and students, we maintain the overall organization and coverage found in most syllabi for this course. A strength of Concepts of Biology is that instructors can customize the book, adapting it to the approach that works best in their classroom. Concepts of Biology also includes an innovative art program that incorporates critical thinking and clicker questions to help students understand--and apply--key concepts.

A respected resource for decades, the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals has been updated by a committee of experts, taking into consideration input from the scientific and laboratory animal communities and the public at large. The Guide incorporates new scientific information on common laboratory animals, including aquatic species, and includes extensive references. It is organized around major components of animal use: Key concepts of animal care and use. The Guide sets the framework for the humane care and use of laboratory animals. Animal care and use program. The Guide discusses the concept of a broad Program of Animal Care and Use, including roles and responsibilities of the Institutional Official, Attending Veterinarian and the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. Animal environment, husbandry, and management. A chapter on this topic is now divided into sections on terrestrial and aquatic animals and provides recommendations for housing and environment, husbandry, behavioral and population management, and more. Veterinary care. The Guide discusses veterinary care and the responsibilities of the Attending Veterinarian. It includes recommendations on animal procurement and transportation, preventive medicine (including animal biosecurity), and clinical care and management. The Guide addresses distress and pain recognition and relief, and issues surrounding euthanasia. Physical plant. The Guide identifies design issues, providing construction guidelines for functional areas; considerations such as drainage, vibration and noise control, and environmental monitoring; and specialized facilities for animal housing and research needs. The Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals provides a framework for the judgments required in the management of animal facilities. This updated and expanded resource of proven value will be important to scientists and researchers, veterinarians, animal care personnel, facilities managers, institutional administrators, policy makers involved in research issues, and animal welfare advocates.
