Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, A Survival Manual for Wierdoes, Jerks, and Maladroits is an introduction to ADHD and a manual to help the person with ADHD become all that he can be. It is written in simple, direct plain language for people who have trouble paying attention and don't like to read. If you are having trouble keeping up in in life and don't feel like you are the person that you should be, maybe you have an attention problem. Do people make you feel bad by suggesting that you "must be ADHD"? This manual will help. In fact it may be the beginning of wonderful changes in your life. To know what your problem is and to understand it, leads to acceptance. When you can accept it then you can do good things with it. If you lose your temper and it really hurts afterward or act without thinking and create problems for yourself, this manual may help. If you are abusing drugs or alcohol and can't remember to quit, you may want to read this manual. If you have trouble holding a job or maintaining a relationship with a significant other, look in this book.

The middle years of the nineteenth century saw two crucial develop ments in the history of modern logic: George Boole's algebraic treat ment of logic and Augustus De Morgan's formulation of the logic of relations. The former episode has been studied extensively; the latter, hardly at all. This is a pity, for the most central feature of modern logic may well be its ability to handle relational inferences. De Morgan was the first person to work out an extensive logic of relations, and the purpose of this book is to study this attempt in detail. Augustus De Morgan (1806-1871) was a British mathematician and logician who was Professor of Mathematics at the University of London (now, University College) from 1828 to 1866. A prolific but not highly original mathematician, De Morgan devoted much of his energies to the rather different field of logic. In his Formal Logic (1847) and a series of papers "On the Syllogism" (1846-1862), he attempted with great ingenuity to reformulate and extend the tradi tional syllogism and to systematize modes of reasoning that lie outside its boundaries. Chief among these is the logic of relations. De Mor gan's interest in relations culminated in his important memoir, "On the Syllogism: IV and on the Logic of Relations," read in 1860."

This book takes a down to earth look at Gang Gun Violence and what we can do as American citizens to eliminate it. Every household, school, church, community center, and organization who is working to stop or eliminate Gang Gun Violence should have a copy of this book. There is no book on Gang Gun Violence which contains more information on the subject than this one. Once you start reading it you will find it very hard to put it down. The information in the book just seemed to jump out and capture your attention and cause you to see gang culture for what it really is. Your eyes will be opened in many new ways, and your mind will sing triumphantly, "This is it, this is it." This is the kind of book I been looking for. Your life will never be the same after reading this book. People who especially work with youths need this book, and every Police Department or Gang Task Force should have this information ready to enlighten, as a form of prevention, for any would be gang member. You can not put a price on a book that help's as much as this book does.

Motivated by applications, an underlying theme in analysis is that of finding bases and understanding the transforms that implement them. These may be based on Fourier techniques or involve wavelet tools; they may be orthogonal or have redundancies (e.g., frames from signal analysis).

Representations, Wavelets, and Frames contains chapters pertaining to this theme from experts and expositors of renown in mathematical analysis and representation theory. Topics are selected with an emphasis on fundamental and timeless techniques with a geometric and spectral-theoretic flavor. The material is self-contained and presented in a pedagogical style that is accessible to students from both pure and applied mathematics while also of interest to engineers.

The book is organized into five sections that move from the theoretical underpinnings of the subject, through geometric connections to tilings, lattices and fractals, and concludes with analyses of computational schemes used in communications engineering. Within each section, individual chapters present new research, provide relevant background material, and point to new trends and open questions.

In the late 1850s many of the most striking places in Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana had not yet been surveyed by any government expedition. This book brings to life the expedition that first explored these regions. As the last major government survey of the American West before the Civil War, the Raynolds Expedition began in 1859. This highly readable daily journal of Captain William F. Raynolds, previously unpublished, covers the most challenging period of that expedition, from May 7 to July 4, 1860. It describes what the Raynolds party did and saw while traveling from its winter quarters near today's Glenrock, Wyoming, up to the head of the Wind River, through Jackson Hole, and on to the Three Forks of the Missouri in southwestern Montana. The party included legendary mountain man Jim Bridger, geologist Ferdinand Hayden, and artists Anton SchOEnborn and James Hutton, among the first to depict the Teton Range. Historians, travelers, and outdoor enthusiasts will welcome this important addition to the literature of western exploration.

This monograph presents the first unified exposition of generalized multiresolution analyses. Expanding on the author's pioneering work in the field, these lecture notes provide the tools and framework for using GMRAs to extend results from classical wavelet analysis to a more general setting. Beginning with the basic properties of GMRAs, the book goes on to explore the multiplicity and dimension functions of GMRA, wavelet sets, and generalized filters. The author's constructions of wavelet sets feature prominently, with figures to illustrate their remarkably simple geometric form. The last three chapters exhibit extensions of wavelet theory and GMRAs to other settings. These include fractal spaces, wavelets with composite dilations, and abstract constructions of GMRAs beyond the usual setting of L2( n). This account of recent developments in wavelet theory will appeal to researchers and graduate students with an interest in multiscale analysis from a pure or applied perspective. Familiarity with harmonic analysis and operator theory will be helpful to the reader, though the only prerequisite is graduate level experience with real and functional analysis.
