Humans have treasured diamonds for their exquisite beauty and unrivaled hardness for thousands of years. Deep within the earth, diamonds grow. Diamonds the size of footballs, the size of watermelons - billions of tons of diamonds wait for eternity a hundred miles beyond our reach. Spanning centuries of ground-breaking science, bitter rivalry, outright fraud, and self-delusion, The Diamond Makers is a compelling narrative centered around the brilliant, often eccentric, and controversial pioneers of high pressure research. This vivid blend of dramatic personal stories and extraordinary scientific advances - and devastating failures - brings alive the quest to create diamond. Scientists have harnessed crushing pressures and scorching temperatures to transform almost any carbon-rich material, from road tar to peanut butter, into the most prized of gems. The book reveals the human dimensions of research - the competition, bravery, jealousy, teamwork, and greed that ultimately led to today's billion-dollar diamond synthesis industry.

It was known since experiments of Antoine Lavoisier that diamond was a form of carbon.Wells's story appeared a few years after the claims of James Ballantyne Hannay in 1879 and Ferdinand Frédéric Henri Moissan in 1893, that they had made artificial diamonds. Moissan heated charcoal (a form of carbon) and iron in a furnace until the iron melted; then rapidly cooled, the iron would generate high pressure and transform the charcoal into diamonds. Others tried to repeat this experiment in later years, and very small diamonds were created; commercially successful production of synthetic diamonds was not achieved until the 1950s.

The Diamond Makers, written against the backdrop of nine incredible decades of history characterized by rapid changes in technology, medicine and social advancements, several wars and the emergence of the United States as the number one economic power in the world. The author's life begins at the end of WWI, the beginning of the Great Depression and the resurgence of the Klu Klux Clan. This book spans WWII, the discovery of penicillin, the first commercial airplanes, the invention of the TV and the computer, the prosperity of the 50's, the first man on the moon, the swinging 60's, the Korean, Vietnam and Iraqi wars, the fight for civil and women's rights, the evolution of capitalism and ever changing world up to 2013. The author spent WWII in the European theatre learning the logistics and management skills that would later serve him in his business career and raising four children. Since retiring, he has stayed active in several manufacturing projects. Mr. Delmer has painted over 60 paintings that hang in his home and the homes of friends and family and may be viewed at www.TheDiamondMakersBook.com. The Diamond Markers is both a memoir and series of observations about this amazing time in history.

This early work by Arthur Benjamin Reeve was originally published in 1912 and we are now republishing it with a brand new biography. "The Diamond Maker" is a story of synthetic diamonds and a con man. Arthur Benjamin Reeve was born on 15th October 1880 in New York, USA. Reeve received his University education at Princeton and upon graduating enrolled at the New York Law School. However, his career was not destined to be in the field of Law. Between 1910 and 1918 he produced 82 short stories for Cosmopolitan. During this period he also began authoring screenplays. By the end of this decade his film career was at its peak with his name appearing on seven films, most of them serials and three of them starring Harry Houdini. In 1932 he moved to Trenton to be near his alma mater. He died on 9th August 1936.

Every year, the world consumes more than 10,000 tons of diamond superabrasives, which are indispensable for fields such as construction, metals, ceramics, automobiles, semiconductors, computers, and cellular phones. In fact, the per capita consumption of superabrasives may be used as an indicator of a country's industrial activities. This volume presents several aspects of superhard materials, especially diamond superabrasives and their manufacture, properties, and applications, and introduces several new designs of ultrahard materials that may be harder than diamond. It discusses diamond’s connection with the origin of life, in particular, the origin of the first RNA. In addition, it throws light on the concept of diamond quantum computers with neutrons of the carbon-13 isotope as quantum bits. This innovation may maintain quantum coherence with minimal interference without using complicated cryogenic cooling. Hence, it can be a robust design for future quantum computers. For those interested in the depth of the quantum mechanical world, a chapter elaborates the history of life and humanity in light of the evolution of quantum universes.
