Описание: A unique approach to mathematics covering all of the major topics from simple counting through calculus, including an introduction to differential equations. Starting with counting, all of the operations of arithmetic and the corresponding systems of numbers are developed as a single, interconnected framework. This framework is then used as a foundation for the construction of algebra and calculus. Each new topic is introduced as a logical extension of the topics that came before it, and is developed thoroughly and rigorously with the reader as if it was being invented for the first time. Although it is assumed that the reader is familiar with arithmetic and has had some exposure to algebra, proficiency with mathematics is not required. The conversational style and step-by-step approach make it easy to follow the flow of ideas, and numerous exercises sprinkled throughout allow readers to test their understanding before proceeding to the next topic. Among the topics covered are the additive and positional number systems, the operations of arithmetic, integer and non-integer exponents, fractions, rational and irrational numbers, real and complex numbers, algebraic solutions of equations, simultaneous equations, graphs and graphical solutions of equations, constructing polynomial equations from data, finding roots of polynomial equations, functions and inverse functions, differential calculus including the sum, product, and chain rules, integral calculus including proper and improper integrals, and an introduction to ordinary and partial differential equations, with applications to the physical sciences. Problems at the ends of the chapters, along with their solutions, provide the opportunity to practice methods discussed in the text, and explore important topics in more depth. The choice of subject matter and method of presentation makes this an ideal text for a high school or college level course, or as a self-teaching guide for the general reader interested in developing a deeper understanding of mathematics.

Описание: There really always is something to celebrate, as Kathryn Petras truly learned when undergoing treatment for breast cancer. "Nothing is Worth More Than This Day" - a book with glass half full outlook. Building on Kathryn & Ross Petra`s successful series of quotation books, it`s the perfect gift for the good times and even the not so good times.
Pursuing a dream is hard work, but the right words delivered at the right time--by people who've been there and done that--can give us just the motivation we need. The right words can rekindle our enthusiasm, re-energize our efforts, dispel doubt, let us know we're not alone, and show us that the fight is worth it--and winnable.
Kathryn and Ross Petras are masters at choosing and delivering just the right words. Their books--such as "Age Doesn't Matter Unless You're a Cheese" and "Dance First. Think Later."--and bestselling calendar, The 365 Stupidest Things Ever Said, have over 5.2 million copies in print. Now comes a book for dreamers and doers, plus writers, entrepreneurs, graduates, artists, future movers and shakers. Collecting the hard-won, brilliantly expressed advice from pioneers who have paved the way, including everyone from Rumi to Steve Jobs, Michelangelo to Oprah to Tina Fey, "It Always Seems Impossible Until It's Done" is like a rousing locker-room speech, inspiring courage, commitment, and perseverance.
"I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." --Michael Jordan
"Go for it, baby Life ain't no dress rehearsal." --Tallulah Bankhead "Perfection is like chasing the horizon. Keep moving." --Neil Gaiman "If you aren't in over your head, how do you know how tall you are?" --T. S. Eliot "It always seems impossible until it's done." --Nelson Mandela
