A Humorous Paranormal Cozy Mystery

The Tourist is Toast

Reviews 1st edition: "This book is not just a record of what can go wrong with regard to mental health and performance, but explores a number of prudent psychological, ergonomic, and design engineering countermeasures to help guide future mission planners and spacecraft engineers[…]Written in a clear and engaging style, this book will not only interest the general space enthusiast, but all human factors specialists and anyone else studying the human reaction to extreme and unusual environments. As a comprehensive account of what we have learned so far about the psychological challenges of space travel, Space Psychology and Psychiatry should also be on the bookshelf of any researcher plotting the future course of human spaceflight."(Ergonomics in Design)
"This slim volume contains almost all that one could possibly want to know about current issues regarding the psychology of human space exploration. This is an extremely important book, particularly with a manned U.S. mission to Mars planned for the near future.This impressive book is an essential step on the way to communicating an understanding of these issues to a wider audience. It deserves to be in the library of anyone interested in space exploration and space science, and may well serve as an essential textbook in the field.The book may serve as a textbook for researchers but should also appeal to a wider, nonprofessional audience."David W. Brook, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry, New York University School of Medicine.

"It wasn't too long ago that BioMEMS and its impact could be treated in one or two modest chapters of a general book on MEMS. No longer. From DNA analysis to retinal implants to artifically created networks of neurons, this field has simply exploded. Dr. Urban and his contributors have created a welcome and urgently needed digest of this diverse and exciting field, supported by extensive citations to the relevant original work. Every researcher in BioMEMS, and every student hoping to work in this field, will need this on his or her desk."

From the reviews:"The book presents the author’s research and experience in the area of antenna modeling, dynamics, and control. The analytical approach and the experimental approach to the subject are explained. The text is clearly written up-to-date authoritative reference describing the application part of the antenna control engineering. The monograph is primarily addressed to the antenna, telescope, and radiotelescope engineers, as well as researchers and students in motion control and mechatronics." (Lubomír Bakule, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1159, 2009)“This book is addressed to engineers and students interested in motion control and primarily to antenna, telescope, and radio telescope engineers. It is based on the author’s experience with the NASA Deep Space Network antennas. The first part of the book covers the modeling of antennas, while the second part covers control … .” (IEEE Control Systems Magazine, Vol. 30, February, 2010)

From the reviews:

"The book … crosses the boundaries of physical, theoretical, and inorganic chemistry, with the aim of discussing and reaching a better understanding of nanoparticle synthesis in the context of microheterogeneous systems. …. This book is the first attempt, so far as I know, to respond to the current demand for a comprehensive survey of knowledge in the area of synthesis in confined volumes. … The contents of the book are well organized and easily accessible through the table of contents." (Gleb B. Sukhorukov, Angewandte Chemie, Vol. 45 (42), 2006)
"The goal of the author in writing this book was to describe the basics behind using surfactant-based micro-heterogeneous systems to produced nanoparticles. … The author does an excellent job of reviewing the recent, very extensive, literature on the use of micelles, reverse micelles, microemulsions etc., for producing nanoparticles. … the book is a useful compilation of the literature for synthesizing nanoparticles in surfactant-based micro-heterogeneous systems." (Gregory V. Hartland, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 128 (18), 2006)

Aus den Rezensionen:

"… Das Buch … bildet das heute verfügbare theoretische und praktische Wissen über diese faszinierende Technik interdisziplinär und umfassend ab. Der Inhalt reicht von den Grundlagen der Magnesiumlegierungen und ihrer Phasenübergänge über die Anforderungen an Spritzgießanlagen bis zu elementaren Prozessdetails und Bauteileigenschaften."

From the reviews:

"Structure-based drug design (SBDD) is now an integral component of the drug discovery process. … The book’s core subject matter of fragment-based screening is an exciting and important development in drug discovery. These chapters are generally the strongest in the book and make it a good reference volume … ." (Robert Powers, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 129 (32), 2007)

"…a noteworthy step forward for research into a rich area for transport psychology and ergonomics. For audiophiles interested in transport research, I would recommend picking up this work as a thought-provoking collection of studies."—Ergonomics, May 2016
"With this book, Brodsky takes us through all aspects of driving while listening to music, in a very informative and interesting manner.By reading this book you will get a nuanced, detailed, informative picture of driving with music, both the positive and the negative sides of it, plus potential ways to bypass the negative effects of driving with music, and enhance the positive effects."—Transport Reviews, August 2015
"We see the motivation that inspired the book—promoting safer driving through careful selection of music and its volume… Based on his research, that of many others, and on reports from several insurance companies, Brodsky presents a list of recommendations for using music to improve safety…The book ends with a call for recognition that driving with music can be beneficial, but this needs to be understood in terms of sensible musical selection and appropriate operation of the audio system."—Psychomusicology: Music, Mind, and Brain, October 2016
"Overall, the scope of the book is impressive and Driving with music: Cognitive-behavioural implications offers much for those researching in the social and applied psychology of music to think about. It is clear that "cars and music" is both an area of great importance and also an area ripe and ready for additional research. Therefore, this book will serve as a useful foundation for future research. As Brodsky states: "as long as automobiles are accessible to consumers, drivers will always be cruising down some roadway with their favourite playlist of tracks blasting out of the cabin speakers in full volume, as the croon away in the best of karaoke style" (p. 36), making it important that we understand our relationship with music in the car."—Amanda Krause, Curtin University, Australia

From the reviews:

"This edited book is designed to provide an up-to-date description of scholarly thinking about the concept of social capital and its relationships to health outcomes. … Public health students and researchers interested in social and behavioral predicates of health are the intended audience. … The chapter authors are published and knowledgeable in their respective areas. This book will provide students and academic researchers with a very good, up-to-date accounting of the state-of-the-field in thinking about and studying social capital and its relationship to health." (Anne B. Wallis, Doody’s Review Service, January 2008)
"The book consists of an introduction plus two large sections, the first on the measurement of social capital and the second on the evidence linking social capital to health. ... This book will be a useful reference for anyone interested in understanding and studying the many and complex ways in which social relationships may affect health." (Ana V. Diez Roux, American Journal of Epidemiology, Vol. 168, 2008)
