A monograph examining recent progress in the field of inhomogeneous fluids, focusing on the theoretical - as well as experimental - techniques used. It presents the comprehensive theory of first-order phase transitions, including melting, and contains numerous figures, tables and display equations.;The contributors treat such subjects as: exact sum rules for inhomogenous fluids, explaining density functional and integral equation methods; exact solutions for two-dimensional homogeneous and inhomogeneous plasmas; current advances in the theory of interfacial electrochemistry; wetting experiments and the theory of wetting; freezing, with an emphasis on quantum systems and homogeneous nucleation in liquid-vapour and solid-liquid transitions; self-organizing liquids as well as kinetic phenomena in inhomogeneous fluids, using a modified Enskog theory.;Featuring over 1000 bibliographic citations, this volume is aimed at physical, surface, colloid and surfactant chemists; also physicists, electrochemists and graduate-level students in these disciplines.

SE BUSCA: 

CRIADA DE SANGRE DE GUSTO EXCEPCIONAL.

DEBE TENER INCLINACIÓN POR LOS MEJORES PLACERES D E LA VIDA . CHICAS DE VOLUNTAD DÉBIL, ABSTENERSE.

Marion Shaw se crió en los suburbios, donde lo único que conoció fueron el anhelo y la carencia. A pesar de que lo que más anhela es abandonar la ciudad y todas sus miserias, no tiene ninguna esperanza de escapar hasta el día en que encuentra un anuncio muy peculiar en el periódico, en el cual se busca una criada de sangre.

Aunque sabe muy poco sobre el lejano norte, donde los nobles viven a todo lujo y se beben la sangre de aquellos a su servicio, Marion decide tratar de conseguir el puesto. En cuestión de días, se convierte en la nueva criada de sangre de la infame Casa del Hambre.

Allí se ve envuelta en un mundo de libertinaje, en cuyo centro está la condesa Lisavet, una mujer amada y temida a partes iguales. Y la condesa no tardará en mostrar un especial interés por Marion.

Lisavet es magnética, y Marion está impaciente por satisfacer a su nueva señora. Pero cuando descubre que las antiguas paredes de la Casa del Hambre esconden antiguos secretos, Marion se ve envuelta en un feroz y mortal juego.

Marion deberá aprender rápido las reglas de su nuevo hogar, o los pasillos se acabarán convirtiendo en su tumba.

«Consolida el puesto de Henderson como una de las autoras góticas más grandes de nuestra generación. Los lectores se quedarán completamente fascinados».
