Putting social engineering on the back burner: teaching priorities in formal education in rural Punjab, Pakistan (2004)
Journal Article
Lyon, S. (2004). Putting social engineering on the back burner: teaching priorities in formal education in rural Punjab, Pakistan. Anthropology in Action: Journal for Applied Anthropology in Policy and Practice, 11(1), 35-44

This paper argues that the state of education in rural areas of Pakistan indicate an urgent need for policies which will improve the poor performance of existing schools. Social engineering to address gender and class imbalances, laudable though this...

The R-1(2)(6) hydrogen-bonded synthon in neutral urea and metal-bound halide systems (2004)
Journal Article
Turner, D., Smith, B., Goeta, A., Evans, I., Tocher, D., Howard, J., & Steed, J. (2004). The R-1(2)(6) hydrogen-bonded synthon in neutral urea and metal-bound halide systems. CrystEngComm, 6, 633-641

The recurrence of the R-1(2)(6) motif between urea and metal bound halides is explored through studies in the CSD, including examples of the closely related thiourea and guanidine-based structures. A series of compounds containing the isomeric pyridy... Read More about The R-1(2)(6) hydrogen-bonded synthon in neutral urea and metal-bound halide systems.

2,5-di(aryleneethynyl)pyrazine derivatives: synthesis, structural and optoelectronic properties, and light-emitting device (2004)
Journal Article
