This book is a text on partial differential equations (PDEs) of mathematical physics and boundary value problems, trigonometric Fourier series, and special functions. This is the core content of many courses in the fields of engineering, physics, mathematics, and applied mathematics. The accompanying software provides a laboratory environment that
Covers ODEs and PDEs-in One TextbookUntil now, a comprehensive textbook covering both ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs) didn't exist. Fulfilling this need, Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations provides a complete and accessible course on ODEs and PDEs using many examples and exercises as well as
Partial Differential Equations: Analytical Methods and Applications covers all the basic topics of a Partial Differential Equations (PDE) course for undergraduate students or a beginners’ course for graduate students. It provides qualitative physical explanation of mathematical results while maintaining the expected level of it rigor. This text introduces and promotes practice of necessary problem-solving skills. The presentation is concise and friendly to the reader. The "teaching-by-examples" approach provides numerous carefully chosen examples that guide step-by-step learning of concepts and techniques. Fourier series, Sturm-Liouville problem, Fourier transform, and Laplace transform are included. The book’s level of presentation and structure is well suited for use in engineering, physics and applied mathematics courses. Highlights: Offers a complete first course on PDEs The text’s flexible structure promotes varied syllabi for courses Written with a teach-by-example approach which offers numerous examples and applications Includes additional topics such as the Sturm-Liouville problem, Fourier and Laplace transforms, and special functions The text’s graphical material makes excellent use of modern software packages Features numerous examples and applications which are suitable for readers studying the subject remotely or independently
Stories may be the most powerful teaching tool available to us, especially when the lessons being taught are love, necessary losses, respect and values.
William Furley and Victor Gysembergh present a study of ancient Greek extispicy (a form of prophecy by consulting animal entrails) based on the remains of ancient technical manuals on the subject. The aim is to study the papyrological texts in detail for their meaning and to relate this to similar practices in other parts of the ancient world"--
Victor Hugo was a poet, novelist, and dramatist of the Romantic Movement. And he is also considered to be one of the greatest and best-known French writers. This meticulously edited collection will bring you closer to his true persona. You will find out the amazing circumstances and true events in his incredible life full of turmoil, great success as well as great defeats. Contents: Biography Victor Hugo: His Life and Work Autobiography The Memoirs of Victor Hugo Essays Medley of Philosophy and Literature Napoleon the Little William Shakespeare The History of a Crime Speeches: "In Defense of His Son" Address to the Workman's Congress at Marseille Oration on Voltaire Letters: Juliette Drouet's Love-Letters to Victor Hugo Letter to the London News Regarding John Brown Letter to Mrs. Maria Weston Chapman on American Slavery
The Demos Surgical Pathology Guides series presents in summary and visual form the basic knowledge base that every practicing pathologist needs every working day. Series volumes cover the major specialty areas of surgical pathology, and coverage emphasizes the key entities and diagnoses that pathologists will see in practice, and that they must know whether in training or practice. The emphasis is on the basic morphology with newer techniques represented where they are frequently used. The series provides a handy summary and quick reference that any pathology resident or fellow will find useful. Experienced practitioners will find the series valuable as a portable "refresher course" or review tool. Neoplastic Lesions of the Skin presents the full gamut of skin lesion disorders and diagnoses that pathologists commonly see in practice. Traditional morphology and histopathologic features, coupled with clinical data, are emphasized. Chapters are complemented with both high-power images for analysis of cytologic features of skin lesions cells as well as low-power images for assessment of skin lesion architecture The chapters cover epithelial and epidermal lesions; adnexal lesions; cysts; connective tissue tumors, neural neoplasms; and pigmented lesions of the skin. Neoplastic Lesions of the Skin is highly illustrated throughout and provides residents and clinicians with a quick reference for rotation or review.
First published in 1974, this book is a collection of nine essays written by Victor Ehrenberg between 1925 and 1967, five of which had not been published before. They deal with a number of aspects of Greek and Roman history, and with the nature of ancient history in the East and West. The first essay is a broad survey of interactions between opposing forces and ideas in the world as seen from the most ancient Near Eastern civilizations to the beginning of the western Middle Ages and the era of Byzantium; this is followed by discussions of topics from Classical and Hellenistic Greece and Republican and Imperial Rome, with the accent on the history of ideas and institutions -freedom, the Greek city-state, and Roman concepts of state and empire. The final chapter consists of personal reflections on the meaning of history from the writer's own characteristic viewpoint, and is, as he admits, more in the way of a confession than pure scholarship.
Originally published in 1995, this volume addresses a topical subject: assisted suicide. The book discusses the issues surrounding the morality of suicide and in so doing clarifies the literature in applied ethics. It critiques the complex moral and religious arguments on the topic offered by philosophers and theologians. It establishes a middle position between those who hold that suicide is never morally permissible and those who claim it always is and it determines when second parties ought to aid and when they ought to prevent suicides.
Covers symptoms and signs of disordered nervous function, their analysis in terms of anatomy and physiology, and their clinical implications. Also included are accounts of occurrences of the syndromes and descriptions of main categories and types of disease that express themselves by each syndrome.

The textbook presents a rather unique combination of topics in ODEs, examples and presentation style. The primary intended audience is undergraduate (2nd, 3rd, or 4th year) students in engineering and science (physics, biology, economics). The needed pre-requisite is a mastery of single-variable calculus. A wealth of included topics allows using the textbook in up to three sequential, one-semester ODE courses. Presentation emphasizes the development of practical solution skills by including a very large number of in-text examples and end-of-section exercises. All in-text examples, be they of a mathematical nature or a real-world examples, are fully solved, and the solution logic and flow are explained. Even advanced topics are presented in the same undergraduate-friendly style as the rest of the textbook. Completely optional interactive laboratory-type software is included with the textbook. Email Mikhail.Khenner@wku.edu with proof of textbook purchase to request access to optional software download.
