For courses in Differential Equations and Linear Algebra. The right
balance between concepts, visualisation, applications, and skills
Differential Equations and Linear Algebra provides the conceptual
development and geometric visualisation of a modern differential
equations and linear algebra course that is essential to science
and engineering students. It balances traditional manual methods
with the new, computer-based methods that illuminate qualitative
phenomena - a comprehensive approach that makes accessible a wider
range of more realistic applications. The book combines core topics
in elementary differential equations with concepts and methods of
elementary linear algebra. It starts and ends with discussions of
mathematical modeling of real-world phenomena, evident in figures,
examples, problems, and applications throughout.
An introduction to elementary linear algebra - designed especially
for those interested in computer science, business and economics,
the natural and social sciences, engineering, or mathematics.
For briefer traditional courses in elementary differential
equations that science, engineering, and mathematics students take
following calculus. The Sixth Edition of this widely adopted book
remains the same classic differential equations text it's always
been, but has been polished and sharpened to serve both instructors
and students even more effectively.Edwards and Penney teach
students to first solve those differential equations that have the
most frequent and interesting applications. Precise and clear-cut
statements of fundamental existence and uniqueness theorems allow
understanding of their role in this subject. A strong numerical
approach emphasizes that the effective and reliable use of
numerical methods often requires preliminary analysis using
standard elementary techniques.
Do you trust the liberal media? While the tabloid and right-wing
press - the Sun, The Times, the Mail and the Express - are
constantly criticised for dangerous bias, outlets like the BBC and
the Guardian are trusted by their readers to report in the
interests of the public. However, the reality is that all corporate
media is systematically filtered by the powerful interests that
own, manage and fund it. Propaganda Blitz shows that the corporate
media does not just 'spin' the news - it fundamentally distorts
everything it touches, hiding the real issues from public view, and
often completely reversing the truth. This book uncovers a storm of
top-down campaigns behind war reporting from Iraq, Syria and
Palestine, as well as the destruction of the credibility of figures
on the left, including Jeremy Corbyn, Russell Brand and Hugo
Chavez. Exposing propagandists at the top levels of the BBC, as
well as their reporting on the Scottish independence referendum,
the dismantling of the NHS and looming climate chaos, Propaganda
Blitz explains the real meaning of 'objective' journalism, exposes
the fake news about 'fake news' and outlines a model for
anti-business media activism.
Stunning backpacking routes in the Scottish Highlands and Islands
are covered in this inspiring, large-format guidebook. 30 routes
are described, ranging from 1-4 days, with most suitable for a long
weekend. The routes are divided between the Western Highlands and
Inner Hebrides, the Central and Eastern Highlands, the Northwest
Highlands, the Far North and the Outer Hebrides. They are suitable
for those with the experience and self-reliance to navigate
proficiently and stay safe in an environment which can easily
become inhospitable. Although some routes visit bothies, most call
for at least one night's wild camping. Each walk includes overview
data, route description and 1:100,000 mapping and they are
illustrated with stunning photos. An introduction offers background
information about the Highlands' rich geology, plants and wildlife
and the historical and cultural context of Scotland's 'wilderness'.
There is also practical information on preparing for an incursion
and advice for those looking to expand their experience of
wild-country backpacking. The Highlands and Islands of Scotland are
home to the most ruggedly beautiful, expansive and challenging
backpacking country in the British Isles. This is a land for those
who love open spaces, vast horizons, and the domination of nature.
This text is rigorous, fairly traditional and is appropriate for
engineering and science calculus tracks. Hallmarks are accuracy,
strong engineering and science applications, deep problem sets (in
quantity, depth, and range), and spectacular visuals.
An investigation into how soldiers of this period considered and
presented themselves. Within the large-scale historiography of
sixteenth- and seventeenth-century warfare and the early modern
military revolution there remain many unanswered questions about
the individual soldier and their relationship to the profession of
arms. What was it that distinguished a soldier from the rest of
society? How was the military life perceived in this period by
those with first-hand experience of soldiery, or who represented
soldiers on the page and stage?How were nationality, class, and
gender used to construct military identities? And how were such
identities also shaped by classical and medieval models? This book
examines how early modern fighting men and their peers viewed and
represented themselves in military roles, and how they were viewed
and fashioned by others. Focusing on English, Irish and Anglo-Irish
soldiers active between the 1560s and 1630s, and using sources
including poetry, petitions, sermons, military treatises and
manuals, campaign records, and plays by Shakespeare, Middleton and
their contemporaries, a combination of historians and literary
scholars offer new investigations into the construction,
representation and interpretation of military identity, and
consider the personal and political implications of martial
self-fashioning. Drawing on a variety of disciplines and
methodologies, the essays here demonstrate how the study of
military identity-and military identities-intersects with that of
life-writing, digital humanities, gender, disability, the history
of emotions, and the relationship between early modern literature
and martial culture. MATTHEW WOODCOCK is Professor of Medieval and
Early Modern Literature, University of East Anglia; CIAN O'MAHONY
is an Independent Scholar. Contributors: Angela Andreani, Benjamin
Armintor, Ruth Canning, David Edwards, Andrew Hadfield, Andrew
Hiscock, Adam McKeown, Philip Major, Cian O'Mahony, James O'Neill,

Intended for those who train and handle cadaver dogs, this book
also encompasses information for those who work closely with them,
such as police, death investigators, and anthropologists. Its
interdisciplinary approach is useful to any member of a forensic
team who regularly participates in or evaluates the results of the
human remains search effort. Cadaver Dog Handbook sets out the
principles and procedures for the training and handling of dogs for
the location of human remains. It explains scent theory and its
applications, introduces basic training and searching
strategies/tactics, and covers the legal and taphonomic issues
associated with dog searches. Intended for those who train and
handle cadaver dogs, this book also encompasses information for
those who work closely with them, such as police, death
investigators, and anthropologists. Its interdisciplinary approach
is useful to any member of a forensic team who regularly
