A superb account of the synthesis of ammonia and the role of nitrogen in agriculture
Nitrogen in agriculture: from composting and guano to Haber-Bosch and artificial fertilizers
Too many statistics, not enough science and history "In the United Kingdom more than half of all nitrogen fertilizer has been applied to grasslands.A Royal Society study found that in the late 1970s average applications on pastures surpassed the inputs to arable land (172 vs. 135 kg N/ha), and that synthetic compounds accounted for 57-63% of all inputs.The overall use of fertilizer nitrogen in the United Kingdom rose by almost 50% between the late 1970s and the mid 1980s, but it declined afterwards, and its average during the late 1990s has been only about 20% higher than a generation earlier, which means that the synthetic fertilizers supply between 65 and 70% of all nitrogen inputs.But high-yielding winter wheat -- the 1998 mean was 7.97 t/ha -- still receives more than 180 kg N/ha, double the amount applied in 1970 when the yield was around 4 t/ha, and the secular correlation between the rising applications of inorganic nitrogen and rising harvests is obvious (fig. 7.8)." Now imagine 300 more pages of text just like that, and you get the idea.There is no *story* here, just data.It's a shame, because there is definitely a story to be told. The material on the Haber process itself is better, but not great.In particular, the author can't seem to choose the level of the audience: descriptions of chemistry alternate between being too simplistic and assuming too much.Details essential to understanding often seemed to be missing, while details of no apparent relevance are in abundance.I don't really care whether the process takes place under 137 vs. 152 atmospheres; but I do care *why* the pressure is so critical, which is never explained. I really wanted to like this book more than I did.There *is* plenty of good material here, but you have to sort through a lot of empty statistics to get it, and the omission of key pieces of scientific explanation makes for a painfully frustrating read.
Nitrogen in Agriculture -- The Haber-Bosch Process The book can get a little technical at times, with chemical formulas and schematics of the instruments.While I found this information useful, some people might find it overwhelming.If you skip over the techincal parts, the book is very well written for the average person. These little known scientists really changed the world as we know it.When you think about it, what has Einstein done for you lately?These guys put food on the table. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description Lungenfunktionsprüfungen sind zunehmend verbreitet und haben einen hohen Stellenwert für therapeutische Entscheidungen und Gutachten. Sie werden inzwischen in jeder Klinik und bei ca. 50 Prozent der hausärztlich tätigen, niedergelassenen Ärzte durchgeführt. Voraussetzungen für die Zuverlässigkeit der Untersuchungsmethode ist die korrekte Durchführung der Untersuchung. D.h. Untersucher müssen Patienten entsprechend anleiten und führen können, denn korrekte Ergebnisse sind nur bei aktiver Mitarbeit möglich. Dieses Fachbuch zeigt die exakte Befundung der Ergebnisse im Kontext mit weiteren Untersuchungsergebnissen und der Klinik des Patienten. |
