Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Written for a period in time which is still evolving, this volume
speaks to many of the civil rights issues that were overshadowed
for much of the 20th century. As civil rights campaigns began to
come into focus, so too did the cries for basic human rights from
many groups. These civil rights movements can be characterized by a
common sense of necessity in American history. These voices argue
collectively for the inclusion of this new timeline of civil rights
campaigns in classrooms across the United States. Topics include
attention to emerging movements in the longer civil rights history
including citizens with disabilities, LGBTQ+, Black Lives Matter,
art and literature movements, economic access, and civil rights
law. Each theme presented in these chapters gives teachers a
background in which to build civil rights curriculum and discussion
for students. In addition to historical analysis, this volume
provides curriculum development solutions to teach these topics
within an interdisciplinary social studies classroom.
Real estate, like any other investment, is a means to an end: that
end might be a secondary source of income, a strategic plan for
your retirement, or a way to attain complete financial
independence. Whatever your goal is, you've decided that real
estate is a tool you want to use. So how do you use it? How do you
make it work for you and avoid getting burned in the market? And
how much of it do you need to fulfill your ambitions?
Peter Kinch is one of Canada's top mortgage brokers and has
helped thousands of investors clarify their dreams and turn them
into reality. In "The Canadian Real Estate Action Plan," Peter
walks you through one of his investor workshops, helping you
develop not just "a "plan, but "your "plan, including: Defining
your end goal, and how much real estate you need to achieve it
Determining the kinds of investments that are right for you
Identifying obstacles to your success, and overcoming them
Discovering financing options and solutions, including recent
changes that affect investors
New investors will get the thorough background information they
need to get started, while more experienced investors will benefit
from exploring alternative options and lesser-known strategies.
Both will see how long-term thinking is the key to their
portfolio's continued profitability.
The best way to achieve your goals is to plan for your success,
and there's no better tool to help you do just that than "The
Canadian Real Estate Action Plan."
This book uses several fantasy movies or movie series and
television series to explain political and international relations
(IR) concepts and theories. It begins with an overview of the
importance of fantasy in literature, film and television, and its
increasing impact on the field of International Relations. It then
presents the political, IR, and social issues in each franchise,
and in five chapters uses these tales' key story arcs or plot
points to illustrate major political and IR themes. The volume pays
particular attention to such fantasy franchises as Lord of the
Rings, Game of Thrones, the Harry Potter films, recent fairytale
and children's stories, and female-led fantasy projects.
This book addresses the contemporary disillusion with truth,
manifest in sceptical relativism. Contending that all contemporary
theories of truth are too narrow, it argues for a novel conception
of truth, by showing how error is implicated in the actions of all
living things; and by analyzing uses of 'true' in non-linguistic
contexts.
Number theory has been a perennial topic of inspiration and
importance throughout the history of philosophy and mathematics.
Despite this fact, surprisingly little attention has been given to
research in learning and teaching number theory per se. This volume
is an attempt to redress this matter and to serve as a launch point
for further research in this area. Drawing on work from an
international group of researchers in mathematics education, this
volume is a collection of clinical and classroom-based studies in
cognition and instruction on learning and teaching number theory.
Although there are differences in emphases in theory, method, and
focus area, these studies are bound through similar constructivist
orientations and qualitative approaches toward research into
undergraduate students' and preservice teachers' subject content
and pedagogical content knowledge. Collectively, these studies draw
on a variety of cognitive, linguistic, and pedagogical frameworks
that focus on various approaches to problem solving, communicating,
representing, connecting, and reasoning with topics of elementary
number theory, and these in turn have practical implications for
the classroom. Learning styles and teaching strategies investigated
involve number theoretical vocabulary, concepts, procedures, and
proof strategies ranging from divisors, multiples, and divisibility
rules, to various theorems involving division, factorization,
partitions, and mathematical induction.
