This revised edition of the Dictionary of British Place-Names includes over 17,000 engaging and informative entries, tracing the development of the featured place-names from earliest times to the present day. Included place-names range from the familiar to the obscure, among them 'Beer', 'Findlater', 'Broadbottom', and 'Great Snoring'. The A to Z entries are complemented by a detailed introductory essay discussing the chronology and development of English, Irish, Welsh, and Scottish place-names, as well as an extensive bibliography, maps of Britain showing old and new boundaries, and a glossary of common elements in place-names. Also new to this edition is an appendix of recommended web links pointing to relevant online resources, thereby expanding the scope of the dictionary and providing the reader with an opportunity to explore the subject further. Both accessible and up to date, this dictionary is an ideal companion for anybody travelling around the British Isles, as well as for researchers and students with an interest in toponomy, local history, cartography, and lexicography.

This book takes a detailed look at design principles for pneumatic conveying systems and illustrates these with examples and case histories. WSL and Thames Polytechnic, where most of the experimental work for this book was carried out, both have excellent reputations for their extensive research. Their collaboration with a consortium of industrial manufacturers and users of pneumatic conveying equipment has resulted in this authoritative guide. The book is in two parts - a full and detailed reference book including case histories and their solutions and an accompanying abbreviated guide containing salient design guidelines. Data on a variety of materials will be invaluable to those designing systems to handle these materials. The guide will also prove essential to those not so familiar with pneumatic conveying, providing information on the types of systems available and their capabilities. Both parts of the set are available separately.

In this richly entertaining and highly readable volume, you'll enjoy David Mills' irreverent challenge to the charlatans of science fraud. You'll be shocked to learn:* Why most popular Self-Help books are filled with scientific misstatements, mythology, and harmful advice.* Why chiropractic healthcare is a religion, based on the phony theory of an Iowa grocer and fish peddler.* Why lie-detectors are a "sick joke," often implicating innocent people.* Why really our public schools are a hopeless debacle and a combat zone.* Why psychotherapy and the self-esteem movement are witchcraft.* Why police crime labs routinely and deliberately falsify test results.* Why religion -- all religion -- is derived from ancient superstition.* Why you can never judge a person's character or truthfulness by his appearance or by "looking into his eyes."* Why sex education has failed to safeguard our children from teen pregnancy and disease, and why a little pornography may be good for you!* Why and how you can teach your baby to read -- starting at birth.* Why pseudoscience is rapidly subverting American culture.
