A tale of the Old West as it has seldom been imagined before-authentic, frontier-harsh, and ethereal. Scrag, a young man on the trail to Oregon, meets Justly, a young woman, and her mother and is drawn into their lives. Winner of the David Higham Prize as the best first novel published in the U.K. or British Commonwealth.

With contributions from an international group of leading researchers, this accessible book examines experimental and theoretical techniques and computational methods in high-pressure physics. Highlighting applications in a range of physics disciplines¿from novel materials synthesis to planetary interiors¿it cuts across many areas and provides a solid grounding in techniques and applications. The authors focus on scientific challenges in condensed matter under extreme conditions of pressure and temperature, synthesis and characterization of novel materials, and state-of-the-art experimental facilities and technologies.
