We live in a world of numbers and mathematics, and so we need to work with numbers and some math in almost everything we do, to control our happiness and the direction of our lives. The purpose of Coming Home to Math is to make adults with little technical training more comfortable with math, in using it and enjoying it, and to allay their fears of math, enable their numerical thinking, and convince them that math is fun. A range of important math concepts are presented and explained in simple terms, mostly by using arithmetic, with frequent connections to the real world of personal financial matters, health, gambling, and popular culture.As such, Coming Home to Math is geared to making the general, non-specialist, adult public more comfortable with math, though not to formally train them for new careers or to teach those first learning math. It may also be helpful to liberal arts college students who need to tackle more technical subjects. The range of topics covered may also appeal to scholars who are more math savvy, though it may not challenge them.

This volume describes the increasing role of "in situ" optical
diagnostics in thin film processing for applications ranging from
fundamental science studies to process development to control
during manufacturing. The key advantage of optical diagnostics in
these applications is that they are usually noninvasive and
nonintrusive. Optical probes of the surface, film, wafer, and gas
above the wafer are described for many processes, including plasma
etching, MBE, MOCVD, and rapid thermal processing. For each optical
technique, the underlying principles are presented, modes of
experimental implementation are described, and applications of the
diagnostic in thin film processing are analyzed, with examples
drawn from microelectronics and optoelectronics. Special attention
is paid to real-time probing of the surface, to the noninvasive
measurement of temperature, and to the use of optical probes for
process control.
