Focusing on the vibrant chemistry culture of 17th-century Colonial New England, the narrative highlights John Winthrop, Jr.'s pivotal role in advancing chemical knowledge and establishing towns and industries. His contributions included the introduction of Paracelsian medicines, elevating him to prominence as the region's leading physician. The book also delves into significant historical developments, such as the founding of Harvard College and Cotton Mather's influential work, Magnalia Christi Americana, which is regarded as a key scholarly publication.

Featuring humorous illustrations, this collection showcases the joys and mishaps of fishing, from tall tales and lucky lures to swamp monsters and the elusive catch. Artist Gary Patterson brings a unique perspective that highlights the spirit and humor of the angling experience, making it an ideal gift for fishing enthusiasts.

This sequel to A Prehistory of Polymer Science begins with the Faraday Discussion of 1935 on Polymerization. Patterson then examines the remarkable rise and establishment of polymer science after 1935 from the perspective of the emergence of strong intellectual leaders. While enough biographical detail is presented to gain an appreciation for the role played by each leader, the emphasis of this volume is on the key concepts associated with each individual and how the community embraced these leaders.

Polymer science is now an active and thriving community of scientists, engineers and technologists, but there was a time, not so long ago, when there was no such community.

The book explores an alternative scenario in the 2008 Presidential Election, proposing that John McCain's selection of Condoleezza Rice as Vice President and Mitt Romney as Chief Economic Advisor could have led to a Republican victory. It analyzes demographic shifts and voter sentiment that might have favored McCain over Barack Obama, even in the wake of the Wall Street Economic Meltdown. The argument is supported by an objective examination of Presidential Exit Poll Data, highlighting the potential impact of these strategic choices on the election outcome.

The book delves into the experimental breakthroughs that shaped modern theories and models of macromolecules. By leveraging principles of physical chemistry, it explores the structural, dynamic, and optical properties of macromolecules in various states. It also provides insights into experimental techniques like light scattering and discusses applications for predicting new polymeric materials. Key topics include amorphous liquids, polyelectrolytes, viscoelasticity, and the distribution of relaxation times related to the glass transition.
