This study recapitulates basic developments in the tradition of hermeneutic and phenomenological studies of science. It focuses on the ways in which scientific research is committed to the universe of interpretative phenomena. It treats scientific research by addressing its characteristic hermeneutic situations, and uses the following basic argument in this treatment: By demonstrating that science’s epistemological identity is not to be spelled out in terms of objectivism, mathematical essentialism, representationalism, and foundationalism, one undermines scientism without succumbing scientific research to “procedures of normative-democratic control” that threaten science’s cognitive autonomy. The study shows that in contrast to social constructivism, hermeneutic phenomenology of scientific research makes the case that overcoming scientism does not imply restrictive policies regarding the constitution of scientific objects.

This book presents the generative rules for formal written communication, in an engineering context, through the lens of mathematics. Aimed at engineering students headed for careers in industry and professionals needing a “just in time” writing resource, this pragmatic text covers all that engineers need to become successful workplace writers, and leaves out all pedagogical piffle they do not. Organized into three levels of skill-specific instruction, A Math-Based Writing System for Engineers: Sentence Algebra & Document Algorithms guides readers through the process of building accurate, precise sentences to structuring efficient, effective reports. The book’s indexed design provides convenient access for both selective and comprehensive readers, and is ideal for university students; professionals seeking a thorough, “left -brained” treatment of English grammar and “go to” document structures; and ESL engineers at all levels.

This textbook provides a current and comprehensive coverage of all major topics of inorganic chemistry in a single source. It includes an analysis of the sources and preparations of the elements, their common compounds, their aqueous speciation, and their applications, while it also discusses reaction pathways and mechanisms. It includes up-to-date material, supported by over 4000 references to the original literature and to recent reviews that provide more detailed information. The material is accompanied by over 250 figures and three-dimensional representations, based on published structural details. Each chapter has worked examples and problems, with multiple inserts describing topical issues related to the material in the text. The textbook provides the instructor with a wide range of areas that can be selected to meet the background and interests of the students, while selected chapters are relevant to courses on more specialized topics, such as inorganic materials, bioinorganic chemistry, and nanomaterials. The intended readers are students, lecturers, and researchers who need a source for the current status of the area.
