Summary

This book introduces readers to the fundamentals of oxygen atom transfer reactions. It also gives mechanistic insights into the redox processes occurring through the oxygen atom transfer reactions. It also includes information about catalytic activation of oxygen through enzymes and oxo-metallic complexes. All topics are explored in separate chapters.
 
 
 
Key features:
 
- reviews the basic mechanisms in redox processes involving oxo-atom transfer reactions.
 
- presents progress in the biomimetic activation of dioxygen related to the catalytic oxidations by synthetic metal organic complexes.
 
- covers an important class of metal-organic compounds - nickel-oxygen species - generated in catalytic oxidation processes as oxygen atom transfer agents.
 
- explains the mechanistic aspects of the heterogeneous photochemical redox processes via oxo-atom transfer reactions
 
- provides references for further reading
 
 
 
It is a reference for both professional scientists in the fields of chemistry, biology and applied sciences, and for graduate and undergraduate students interested in understanding reaction mechanisms involving oxygen.

Well Fed is a vital tool in the ongoing battle against nutrition misinformation. Robbie Lockie, Plant Based News 
–– 
In Well Fed, James Collier, former NHS dietitian and co-founder of Huel, is on a mission to debunk the myths about food and nutrition to reveal why what we eat is not only having a devastating impact on our health, but also on our planet. 
The industrialisation of our food system has wreaked havoc on earth's natural biodiversity, diminished the nutritional value of the food that is produced and has been a major contributor to global warming. The result? A planet in crisis and a surge in diseases of excess. 
By challenging conventional wisdom and embracing a more balanced and nuanced approach, Collier shows that we can:Improve our health by boosting physical and mental well-beingProtect the planet by reducing our environmental impactSupport our communities in fostering a more sustainable food system 
Supercharge your health with Collier's five pillars of contemplative nutrition, which offer a simple, holistic solution to inspire a sustainable approach to food. 
The future of food, our health and the planet is in our hands. Let's act now.  
In Well Fed, James Collier presents a compelling narrative that combines science, ecology, and public policy to address the pressing conditions of our planet. His insights into agriculture, conservation, and fitness provide a comprehensive guide to a more sustainable lifestyle. 
For fans of Oliver Burkeman (The Antidote), Keith N. Frayn (A Calorie is a Calorie), Rhiannon Lambert (The Science of Plant-based Nutrition), Ben Carpenter (Fat Loss Habits), and Vaclav Smil (How to Feed the World).

    If climate catastrophes like Hurricane Sandy seem to be on the rise, it’s for a reason. The likelihood of these extreme weather events are increasingly being tied to man-made global warming, mostly through overproduction of carbon dioxide. It’s no longer an abstract idea; it’s being felt locally, on every level. 
Climate Change and Extreme Weather gives you the tools to better understand what’s behind climate change, what might be in store during the coming decades, and how we can begin to reverse the detrimental effects mankind has had on the atmosphere.
