2005 | 158 Pages | ISBN: 0660190966 | PDF | 14 MB
This is a companion for visitors to the countryside on long holiday weekends who are intrigued by the flowers they see but find field guides formidable. The lively and enthusiastic text and photographs, act as a gateway for readers to deepen their interest in natural history. The book is organized into sections according to flowering times coinciding with the three North American summer holiday weekends (Victoria Day/Memorial Day; Canada Day/Independence Day; and, Civic Holiday/Labor Day). The flowers chosen occur widely over eastern Canada and the northeastern United States, and the majority can be spotted without even leaving the car.

Feminism and Discourse: Psychological Perspectives By Professor Sue Wilkinson, Professor Celia Kitzinger
1996 | 105 Pages | ISBN: 0803978022 | DJVU | 5 MB
Discourse analysis has become an increasingly popular approach to research across the social sciences, and a particularly important tool for feminist psychologists. This book provides a showcase for a wide range of discourse analytical work in psychology from a feminist perspective. It constitutes a thorough critical evaluation of this approach for the feminist project of intellectual, social and political change.Original chapters by leading researchers explore the benefits and contradictions of discourse analysis and consider its value for feminist psychology. The first part of the book illustrates the application of discourse analysis to four key topics of feminist concern: adolescent knowledge about menstruation; sexual harassment; gendered representations of childhood; and anorexia nervosa. The second part contains five assessments of the usefulness of discourse analysis - both as theory and as method - for feminists.The book will be of great interest to critical theorists and discourse analysts across the social sciences, as well as to students and lecturers in social psychology, the psychology of women, psychology and language, women's studies, linguistics, sociology, anthropology and cultural studies.

Benjamin Bold, "Famous Problems of Geometry and How to Solve Them"
English | 1982 | ISBN: 0486242978 |144 pages | DJVU | 0.428 MB
It took two millennia to prove the impossible; that is, to prove it is not possible to solve some famous Greek problems in the Greek way (using only straight edge and compasses). In the process of trying to square the circle, trisect the angle and duplicate the cube, other mathematical discoveries were made; for these seemingly trivial diversions occupied some of history's great mathematical minds. Why did Archimedes, Euclid, Newton, Fermat, Gauss, Descartes among so many devote themselves to these conundrums? This book brings readers actively into historical and modern procedures for working the problems, and into the new mathematics that had to be invented before they could be "solved."

T. Cacoullos, "Exercises in Probability"
English | 1988 | ISBN: 0387967354 | 258 pages | PDF (scan) | 3 MB
The author, the founder of the Greek Statistical Institute, has based this book on the two volumes of his Greek edition which has been used by over ten thousand students during the past fifteen years. It can serve as a companion text for an introductory or intermediate level probability course. Those will benefit most who have a good grasp of calculus, yet, many others, with less formal mathematical background can also benefit from the large variety of solved problems ranging from classical combinatorial problems to limit theorems and the law of iterated logarithms. It contains 329 problems with solutions as well as an addendum of over 160 exercises and certain complements of theory and problems.

C. George, J. M. Cole, "Exercises in Integration"
English | 1984 | ISBN: 0387960600 | 552 pages | PDF | 4 MB
Having taught the theory of integration for several years at the University of Nancy I, then at the Ecole des Mines of the same city, I had followed the custom of the times of writing up de tailed solutions of exercises and problems, which I used to dis tribute to the students every week. Some colleagues who had had occasion to use these solutions have persuaded me that this work would be interesting to many students, teachers and researchers. The majority of these exercises are at the master's level; to them I have added a number directed to those who would wish to tackle greater difficulties or complete their knowledge on various points of the theory (third year students, diploma of education students, researchers, etc.). This book, I hope, will render to students the services that this kind of book brings them in general, with the reservation that can always be made in this case: that certain of them will be tempted to look at the solution to the exercises which are put to them without any personal effort. There is hardly any need to emphasize that such a use of this book would be no benefit. On the other hand, the student who after having worked seriously upon a problem, seeks some pointers from the solution, or compares it with his own, will be using this work in the optimal way.
