Why are some countries rich and others poor? This leading text introduces students to the latest theoretical tools, data, and insights underlying this pivotal question. By showing how empirical evidence relates to new and old theoretical ideas, Economic Growth provides students with a complete introduction to the discipline and the latest research. In addition to thorough updates to the data throughout the book, this fourth edition responds to new research in the field since the last edition. Major changes include: new material on labor’s share of income updated material on health and education updated material on the impact of trade on productivity a heavily revised chapter on government, including an expanded section on legacy effects of colonialism a heavily revised chapter on income inequality, including an expanded section on mobility a heavily revised chapter on culture, including an expanded section on persistent effects of geographical factors updated material on climate change, including an expanded discussion of outcomes and policies related to global warming updated online learning resources With its comprehensive and flexible organization, Economic Growth is ideal for a wide array of courses, including undergraduate and graduate courses in economic growth, economic development, macroeconomic theory, applied econometrics, and development studies.
Biochemical analysis is a rapidly expanding field and is a key component of modern drug discovery and research. Methods of Biochemical Analysis provides a periodic and authoritative review of the latest achievements in biochemical analysis. Founded in 1954 by Professor David Glick, Methods of Biochemical Analysis provides a timely review of the latest developments in the field.
Mathematical Logic and Theoretical Computer Science covers various topics ranging from recursion theory to Zariski topoi. Leading international authorities discuss selected topics in a number of areas, including denotational semanitcs, reccuriosn theoretic aspects fo computer science, model theory and algebra, Automath and automated reasoning, stability theory, topoi and mathematics, and topoi and logic. The most up-to-date review available in its field, Mathematical Logic and Theoretical Computer Science will be of interest to mathematical logicians, computer scientists, algebraists, algebraic geometers, differential geometers, differential topologists, and graduate students in mathematics and computer science.
The articles in this volume are expanded versions of lectures delivered at the Graduate Summer School and at the Mentoring Program for Women in Mathematics held at the Institute for Advanced Study/Park City Mathematics Institute. The theme of the program was arithmetic algebraic geometry. The choice of lecture topics was heavily influenced by the recent spectacular work of Wiles on modular elliptic curves and Fermat's Last Theorem. The main emphasis of the articles in the volume is on elliptic curves, Galois representations, and modular forms. One lecture series offers an introduction to these objects. The others discuss selected recent results, current research, and open problems and conjectures. The book would be a suitable text for an advanced graduate topics course in arithmetic algebraic geometry.

Although, I am 88 old now and start forgetting much of the things, I am happy with what I did to help others in their life. The target audience of the dictionary are Rukwangali and English-speaking people most of which live in the southern Angola and Northern Namibia region. The dictionary is written for any age group, the main theme is educational and informative. The audience are most likely Rukwangali speaking persons who would rely on the dictionary as a direct guide for translation. The dictionary is written in American English. The key learning outcomes of the book would be to strengthen the readers command of English and Rukwangali and hopefully impart somewhat of a cultural experience. Main objective of the book to provide the reader the ability to translate Rukwangali to English and pronunciation. Any Rukwangali speaker who’s anything from as passing interest to a serious commitment to learn English should buy the book. The region where Rukwangali is mostly spoken in is quickly developing a tourism industry and would benefit from the locals being able to communicate effectively with tourists. This book is mainly a guide and reference. It could be used in educational institutions as supplementary material to the language courses being offered. Previous dictionary sold by the author David Ausiku were sold to some schools/students and the expectation is the same with this dictionary. This dictionary would also appeal to the younger generation if it were offered as an e-book as well.
