Achievement Matters: Getting Your Child The Best Education Possible

By: Hugh B. Price

Inspiring stories, practical tips and expert advice." —Ebony "Inspiring stories and practical tips urge parents and caregivers to unlock their children's potential." —Library Journal "A much-needed resource that will enable parents to become partners in their children's academic success. Read it and tell others to read it." —Marian Wright Edelman, Founder, Children's Defense Fund There's a crisis in our classrooms. In school districts across the country, children of color earn sub-par test scores, and are frequently relegated to less challenging classes. Low achievement will doom our children to a future far beneath their capabilities—unless we do something about it. In this updated edition of Achievement Matters, Hugh B. Price, the former President of the National Urban League, shows you how to help your child succeed, and make America's public schools accountable. A vital resource for parents and caregivers, here are practical tips for improving children's literacy and achievement levels while instilling a lifelong enthusiasm for education. Price explains how to make sure your child isn't missing out on essential courses, recommends proven techniques for cutting through bureaucracy to create an environment conducive to learning, and shares insightful personal stories. From using the latest technology to providing after-school and summer programs to give our youth direction and keep them away from drugs and violence, this book offers real tools for making a powerful, positive impact and guiding your child to the brightest possible future. "A noteworthy effort to improve parental involvement, student motivation, and institutional accountability." —Kweisi Mfume, former President and CEO, NAACP 66,870 Words

Multivariable Analysis

Multivariable Analysis

By: Griffith B. Price

This book contains an introduction to the theory of functions, with emphasis on functions of several variables. The central topics are the differentiation and integration of such functions. Although many of the topics are familiar, the treatment is new; the book developed from a new approach to the theory of differentiation. Iff is a function of two real variables x and y, its deriva tives at a point Po can be approximated and found as follows. Let PI' P2 be two points near Po such that Po, PI, P2 are not on a straight line. The linear function of x and y whose values at Po, PI' P2 are equal to those off at these points approximates f near Po; determinants can be used to find an explicit representation of this linear function (think of the equation of the plane through three points in three-dimensional space). The (partial) derivatives of this linear function are approximations to the derivatives of f at Po ; each of these (partial) derivatives of the linear function is the ratio of two determinants. The derivatives off at Po are defined to be the limits of these ratios as PI and P2 approach Po (subject to an important regularity condition). This simple example is only the beginning, but it hints at a m theory of differentiation for functions which map sets in IRn into IR which is both general and powerful, and which reduces to the standard theory of differentiation in the one-dimensional case.

Girl Behind the Fence: Depression

By: Mozelle Martin

Depression affects over 300M adults worldwide. Many people are too embarrassed to seek help, tell themselves they are over-reacting, or don't know that depression is considered a serious medical disorder of the brain. In fact, depression is also directly connected to bipolar disorder, postpartum depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Per the National Institute of Mental Health: * Because of depression, workers miss a combined total of 490 million work days per year which causes a combined annual economic loss for businesses of over $100 billion. * Bipolar Disorder affects 6.3 million people in the United States alone. * Depression is the leading cause of suicide - with one person dying by suicide every 13 minutes. * Postpartum Depression affects 15% of new mothers within a month of delivering their baby. * Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) affects 8 million adults each year. * Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death with an average of 3,600 people attempting each day.

Letters of the Divine Word

The Perfections of God in Karl Barth's Church Dogmatics

By: Robert B. Price

The Christian doctrine of God has traditionally been presented in two parts: an account of the existence and attributes of God on the one hand, and an account of God's triunity on the other. The present study is an analysis of Karl Barth's doctrine of the divine attributes (or 'perfections'), as it appears in his "Church Dogmatics II/1". Barth's doctrine of the divine perfections has received comparatively little attention, and what attention it has received is typically very selective. Authors unaware of larger, structural themes in Barth's account often misconstrue significant details of Barth's text. Others wrongly discount the implications of Barth's doctrine of the perfections for his theology as a whole. The aim of this study is primarily to clarify what Barth says about the perfections and secondarily to relate this to broader themes in Barth's theology. "T&T Clark Studies in Systematic Theology" is a series of monographs in the field of Christian doctrine, with a particular focus on constructive engagement with major topics through historical analysis or contemporary restatement.

A Shaking Reality

Daily Reflections for Advent

By: Peter B. Price

Inspired by Father Alfred Delp, who wrote a meditation titled "The Shaking Reality of Advent" while imprisoned by the Nazis during WWII, Bishop Peter B. Price has written a series of reflections and prayers to be read on each day of Advent. Each reflection is written that we may be "shaken and brought to a realization of our selves" in order to gain a new understanding of God's promise of redemption and release.

Things That Make for Peace

A Christian Peacemaker in a World of War

By: Peter B. Price

Drawing on the experiences and lessons of over forty years working on the frontline of reconciliation and peace building, in Northern Ireland, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East, Peter B. Price explores what it means to respond to the biblical call to "seek peace ... and pursue it" (Psalm 34:14). What is required of Christians today in the light of the increasing number of wars, insurgencies, holocausts, and genocide, is a deeper understanding of what true peacemaking costs and an answer to the question: "Can Christianity continue to sanction war?

By: Harry Baehr, Ph.d.,Christopher B. Price

This book chronicles the stories ,ships and sailors of the U.S. navy from its earliest beginnings when wind was the only source of energy to power these ships. Much of our history and language has its roots in these wooden ships as we expanded Americas influence from the original 13 colonies. This book was primarily researched and written by Dr. Harry Baehr ,PH.D. the former chief editorial writer of the International Herald Tribune and many thanks to the Navy Heritage Archives for use of their information, pictures and illustrations and to the many mariners who keep our nautical traditions alive!
