Click! As their shutters snap, photographers capture special moments in time. Photos give us something to look at while we use our memories to look back in time. Meet a photographer and find out what it takes to be one. Along the way, sharpen your focus on place value. This nonfiction math reader builds literacy skills and math content knowledge, combining informational text, problem-solving, and real-world connections to help students explore math...

Algebra Part 1 is mathematics that are learned typically in elementary school as basic math. This can vary from multiple different math products, but allows the math to stay simple for those new to the math field. Algebra Part 1 can include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and possibly even more. Math is important to everyone in this world. Algebra Part 1 will benefit everyone as they head into the real world. Every job will require...

This classic monograph is the work of a prominent contributor to the field of harmonic analysis. Geared toward advanced undergraduates and graduate students, it focuses on methods related to Gelfand's theory of Banach algebra. Prerequisites include a knowledge of the concepts of elementary modern algebra and of metric space topology. The first three chapters feature concise, self-contained treatments of measure theory, general topology, and Banach...

This in-depth introduction to classical topics in higher algebra provides rigorous, detailed proofs for its explorations of some of mathematics' most significant concepts, including matrices, invariants, and groups. All topics are developed with a remarkable lucidity and discussed in close connection with their most frequent mathematical applications. 1926 edition.

Meticulous and complete, this presentation of Galois' theory of algebraic equations is geared toward upper-level undergraduate and graduate students. The theories of both Lagrange and Galois are developed in logical rather than historical form. And they are given a more thorough exposition than is customary. For this reason, and also because the author concentrates on concrete applications of algebraic theory, Algebraic Equations is an excellent supplementary...

Famous for the number-theoretic first-order statement known as Goodstein's theorem, author R. L. Goodstein was also well known as a distinguished educator. With this text, he offers an elementary treatment that employs Boolean algebra as a simple medium for introducing important concepts of modern algebra. The text begins with an informal introduction to the algebra of classes, exploring union, intersection, and complementation; the commutative, associative,...

This accessible, undergraduate-level text illustrates the role of algebras of holomorphic functions in the solution of an important engineering problem: the stabilization of a linear control system. Its concise and self-contained treatment avoids the use of higher mathematics and forms a bridge to more advanced treatments. The treatment consists of two components: the algebraic framework, which serves as the abstract language for posing and solving...

The Problem Solvers are an exceptional series of books that are thorough, unusually well-organized, and structured in such a way that they can be used with any text. No other series of study and solution guides has come close to the Problem Solvers in usefulness, quality, and effectiveness. Educators consider the Problem Solvers the most effective series of study aids on the market. Students regard them as most helpful for their school work and studies....

Offers explanations of concepts such as whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and percents, and covers advanced topics including imaginary numbers, variables, and algebraic equations.

Dr. Ian Stirling and Dr. Jane Goodall are two famous wildlife scientists. They both use graphs and charts to keep records of important things such as population, weight, length, and litter size. Amazing photographs will help you understand the types of ta
