business practices. Essential reading for all introductory business
courses, particularly business environment modules, this edition

Powers/Needles/Crosson delivers interactive pedagogy by
illustrating accounting principles and real-world examples to
encourage critical thinking. This revision is based on an
understanding of the nature, culture, and motivations of today's
students and on extensive feedback from instructors. These
substantial changes meet the needs of students, who not only face a
business world increasingly complicated by ethical issues,
globalization, and technology, but who also have more demands on
their time. To help them meet these challenges, this textbook shows
students how business transactions, which are the result of
business decisions, are recorded in a way to show their effects on
the financial statements. Built on historically strong pedagogy,
this edition demonstrates strengthened transaction analysis and its
link to the accounting cycle. *Proven Presentation: Students learn
from a trusted approach built on proper accounting principles and
technical detail to ensure mastery of core accounting concepts.
*Relevant Coverage: Chapter-opening Decision Points have been
enhanced to expose students to the changing financial reporting
environment and IFRS. *Critical Thinking Tools: New Stop &
Think features help students develop the judgment skills they need
in the modern business world. Powers/Needles/Crosson demonstrates
accounting in motion!
Delve into the uncharted territory of the "hidden" drug
addict--users who are not in treatment, not incarcerated, and not
officially accessible for research purposes through traditional
means. AIDS and Community-Based Drug Intervention Programs
describes short-term interventions used to reduce the odds that
these drug users will get infected by the Human Immunodeficiency
Virus (HIV). The book explains new methods that are being
developed, such as targeted sampling, social network analysis,
geomapping, and other amalgams of both quantitative and qualitative
approaches, that need to be forged to overcome the challenges of
the war against AIDS. The research described in this important book
was conducted under the Cooperative Agreement for AIDS
Community-Based Outreach/Intervention Research funding mechanism of
the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). Chapters include
research on several ethnic groups, including Alaska natives, Puerto
Ricans, and Navaho teens. AIDS and Community-Based Drug Treatment
Programs, written by experts in the field, is a broad-based
treatment of the subject by those who are actually doing the work
in the trenches. Authors cover topics such as: the use of
goal-oriented counseling and peer support to reduce HIV/AIDS risk
quantitative and qualitative methods to assess behavioral change
among injection drug users (IDUs) the importance of sampling from
hidden populations in research a public health model for reducing
AIDS-related risk behavior among IDUs and their sexual partners
characteristics of female sexual partners of IDUs strategies used
to implement random sampling strategies in the recruitment of
out-of-treatment crack and IDUs ethnographic analysis of
intravenous drug use analysis of contact tracing strategies
employed to combat the AIDS epidemic the use of pile sorts to
enhance other tools used by drug prevention programsAIDS and
Community-Based Drug Intervention Programs is full of current
research and useful information for professionals interested in
learning about strategies for conducting HIV/AIDS research among
hard-to-reach populations. Substance abuse researchers, treatment
professionals, and people involved in AIDS prevention programs,
state and county health departments, and criminal justice systems
will find much relevant and important information to use in their
daily work.
This book combines Von Moody's original work and research in the
carpet industry with the well respected 1986 textile source book,
Textile Fibers, Dyes, Finishes, and Processes: A Concise Guide, by
Howard L. Needles to produce a unique practical guide on all
aspects of the preparation, manufacture, and performance of carpet.
It addresses the structure and properties of fiber, carpet
construction, coatings, dyes, finishes, performance, and recycling,
among other topics. This volume is an indispensable reference for
all practitioners in the carpet industry.
Needles/Powers/Crosson's FINANCIAL AND MANAGERIAL ACCOUNTING, 10e,
International Edition continuously evolves to meet the needs of
today's learner. This edition's new structure is based on research
about how to deliver content to students and how to mirror the way
instructors have told us they teach. The authors have organized
this edition into a new three-section approach: 1. The CONCEPTS
section focuses on the overarching accounting concepts that require
consistent reiteration throughout the course. 2. The ACCOUNTING
APPLICATIONS section helps students apply the accounting procedures
with features such as "Apply It!" and a new transaction analysis
model. 3. The BUSINESS APPLICATIONS section illustrates how
concepts and procedures are used to make real-world business
decisions. As students walk through the new three-section approach,
they gain extra practice with new corresponding TriLevel Problems
within CengageNOW. These problems mirror the three sections in each
chapter-Concepts, Accounting Applications, and Business
Applications-to foster a complete understanding of each section.
These substantial changes make students more efficient learners and
prepare them to face a business world that is increasingly
complicated by ethical issues, globalization, and technology.

There are numerous books on STEAM, but most are either arts and
crafts project books designed for children or high-level books that
can be weighty and inaccessible for new teachers. As an
artist/educator who has taught art and technology for years, Tim
Needles brings a fresh and unique approach to these topics,
focusing on creativity, innovation and collaboration. This
accessible and engaging book offers creative ideas for blending
arts and STEM learning (STEAM). It covers the fundamentals of
STEAM, with project ideas and best practices, while providing
insight from educators in the field. Technologies covered include:
coding, robotics, 3D printing, virtual and augmented reality,
photography, video, animation and digital drawing. In addition, the
book addresses several different approaches to bringing STEAM
learning to the next level, such as collaboration, global learning,
project-based learning, makerspaces and social-emotional learning.
