Complex Analysis for Mathematics and Engineering

By: John H. Mathews,Russell W. Howell

Complex Analysis for Mathematics and Engineering, Fifth Edition is intended for undergraduate students majoring in mathematics, physics, or engineering. The authors strike a balance between the pure and applied aspects of complex analysis, and present concepts in a clear writing style that is appropriate for students at the junior/senior undergraduate level. Through its comprehensive, student-friendly presentation and numerous applications, the Fifth Edition of this classic text allows students to work through even the most difficult proofs with ease. Believing that mathematicians, engineers, and scientists should be exposed to a careful presentation of mathematics, the authors devote attention to important topics such as ensuring that required assumptions are met before using a theorem, confirming that algebraic operations are valid, and checking that formulas are not blindly applied. A new chapter on z-transforms and applications provides students with a current look at Digital Filter Design and Signal Processing. Key Features: New! Chapter 9 is new to this edition and is dedicated to z-transforms, the math needed for engineering applications such as Digital Filter Design and Signal Processing. The text models good proofs and guides students through the details. Exercise sets offer a wide variety of choices for computational skills, theoretical understanding, and applications. Applications show how complex analysis is used in science and engineering. Illustrations include the z-transform, ideal fluid flow, steady-state temperatures, and electrostatics. Coverage of Julia and Mandelbrot sets.

Old Three Toes and Other Tales of Survival and Extinction

By: John Joseph Mathews

Mathews shows us the world through the animals’ eyes and ears and noses. His convincing portrayals of their intelligence recall the fiction of Jack London and Ernest Thompson Seton. Like these literary ancestors, Mathews originally intended his nature stories for boys. But the stories transcend boundaries of age, gender, and geography. Mathews writes not just to inspire his readers with nature’s beauty but to demonstrate the interrelatedness of humans, animals, and the landscapes in which they interact.

Injun Joe's Ghost

The Indian Mixed-blood in American Writing

By: Harry John Brown

What does it mean to be a "mixed-blood," and how has our understanding of this term changed over the last two centuries? What processes have shaped American thinking on racial blending? Why has the figure of the mixed-blood, thought too offensive for polite conversation in the nineteenth century, become a major representative of twentieth-century native consciousness? In Injun Joe's Ghost, Harry J. Brown addresses these questions within the interrelated contexts of anthropology, U.S. Indian policy, and popular fiction by white and mixed-blood writers, mapping the evolution of "hybridity" from a biological to a cultural category. Brown traces the processes that once mandated the mixed-blood's exile as a grotesque or criminal outcast and that have recently brought about his ascendance as a cultural hero in contemporary Native American writing. Because the myth of the demise of the Indian and the ascendance of the Anglo-Saxon is traditionally tied to America's national idea, nationalist literature depicts Indian-white hybrids in images of degeneracy, atavism, madness, and even criminality. A competing tradition of popular writing, however, often created by mixed-blood writers themselves, contests these images of the outcast half-breed by envisioning "hybrid vigor," both biologically and linguistically, as a model for a culturally heterogeneous nation. Injun Joe's Ghost focuses on a significant figure in American history and culture that has, until now, remained on the periphery of academic discourse. Brown offers an in-depth discussion of many texts, including dime novels and Depression-era magazine fiction, that have been almost entirely neglected by scholars. This volume also covers texts such as the historical romances of the 1820s and the novels of the twentieth-century "Native American Renaissance" from a fresh perspective. Investigating a broad range of genres and subject over two hundred year of American writing, Injun Joe's Ghost will be useful to students and professionals in the fields of American literature, popular culture, and native studies.

Sundown

Sundown

By: John Joseph Mathews

Challenge Windzer, the mixed-blood protagonist of this compelling autobiographical novel, was born at the beginning of the twentieth century "when the god of the great Osages was still dominate over the wild prairie and the blackjack hills" of northeast Oklahoma Territory. Named by his father to be "a challenge to the disinheritors of his people," Windzer finds it hard to fulfill his destiny, despite oil money, a university education, and the opportunities presented by the Great War and the roaring twenties. Critics have praised Sundown generously, both as a literary work and a vignette into the Native American past.
