Trench Phillips and the English Muffin McGuffin! Trench brings a contemporary, unorthodox, and drop-dead funny approach to solving the unspeakable wrongdoings in todayÕs hyper-criminal era from armed predator drone attacks, to lethal doses of a heavy metal poison being dumped into the countryÕs water supplies, to catastrophes at The Civilian Interstellar Test Center. As the dangers climb and the bodies drop, Phillips becomes the only player left on the field in a very unsporting high stakes game between treachery and triumph that will both delight and dare mature fans of gritty, hardboiled detective action!

Thermites, which are generally considered to be reactive mixtures of powdered metals and metal oxides, are an important subset of energetic materials. The underlying thermodynamic properties of a given mixture dictate whether it may undergo a self-sustaining reaction, liberating heat in the process. Thermodynamic information in the existing scientific literature regarding thermitic combinations is scattered and incomplete. Currently, a comprehensive overview of this nature would be of great use to those working in the areas of pyrotechnics, pyrometallurgy, high-temperature chemistry, and materials science. Thermitic Thermodynamics solves this problem by describing the results of calculations on over 800 combinations of metal, metalloid, and metal oxide reactants. Other features include: A first-of-its-kind adiabatic survey of binary thermitic reactions Provides an overview of key trends in exothermic metal-metal oxide reactivity Describes the role of non-oxide product formation in thermitic systems Explains how to interpret the results of thermochemical calculations effectively An invaluable resource, this book provides an accessible introduction for students and is also an enduring guide for professionals.
