Book excerpt: "The Mr Porter Experience feels like you’ve been counseled by someone who combines the best of a style-savvy older brother, a world- and wardrobe-wise uncle and a personal valet with an impeccable attention to detail." —Los Angeles Times Mr Porter, the global online retail destination for men’s style, not only stocks more than 170 of the world’s leading menswear brands, but provides a haven of advice, information, and male-friendly guidance. The site has proved that fashion can be successfully sold on the internet while appearing alongside compelling editorial content. Now The Mr Porter Paperback defines a whole new generation of men. Elegant, simple, and classically contemporary, the book contains interviews and insider tips—from "How to Appreciate Jazz" to "Creating a Bespoke Bloody Mary" or "Getting Out of a Hair Rut" —as well as recommendations, style commentaries, and insider articles on biker jackets, knitted ties, polo shirts, sweatshirts, tweed or shawl-collared cardigans, and much more. The clever and attractive design happily juxtaposes the Duke of Windsor with David Beckham. As Jeremy Langmead, Mr Porter’s Editor-in-Chief, says: "There are no fashion diktats anymore, no trends you have to follow; today, it’s just about feeling good, looking your best (because you want to), and enjoying every moment of it."

Book excerpt: The worldwide consumption of surfactants now exceeds several million tonnes per annum. Six ofthe major types represent approximately 80% ofthe volume consumed, whereas the remaining 20% is made up of approximately 40 different chemical types. Commercially produced surface active agents are not pure chemicals, and within each chemical type there can be tremendous variation. Technical staff who are not familiar with surfactants are frequently bewildered by the enormous variety of different products on the market and the vast body of literature which exists on the composition and properties of surfactants. The selection of the best surfactant for any given use therefore becomes a major problem. This volume arose from the clear need to have available a simple reference book summarising the different types of surfactants on the market and their properties. The concept and structure of the book evolved from early attempts to define chemical structure/property relationships of all the different types of surfactants commercially available, into a simple handbook providing essential background information for the surfactant user. It is realised that most users will be developing their own data bank of structure/end use property relationships and they will therefore be the experts on end use.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here he is, husband and father, scruffy romantic, a shambolic scholar--a man adrift in the wake of his wife's sudden, accidental death. And there are his two sons who like him struggle in their London apartment to face the unbearable sadness that has engulfed them. The father imagines a future of well-meaning visitors and emptiness, while the boys wander, savage and unsupervised. In this moment of violent despair they are visited by Crow--antagonist, trickster, goad, protector, therapist, and babysitter. This self-described "sentimental bird," at once wild and tender, who "finds humans dull except in grief," threatens to stay with the wounded family until they no longer need him. As weeks turn to months and the pain of loss lessens with the balm of memories, Crow's efforts are rewarded and the little unit of three begins to recover: Dad resumes his book about the poet Ted Hughes; the boys get on with it, grow up. Part novella, part polyphonic fable, part essay on grief, Max Porter's extraordinary debut combines compassion and bravura style to dazzling effect. Full of angular wit and profound truths, Grief Is the Thing with Feathers is a startlingly original and haunting debut by a significant new talent.
