Writings of Charles S. Peirce: A Chronological Edition, Volume 1
Author: Charles S. Peirce
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 9780253372017
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 680
Book Description
Volume 8 of this landmark edition follows Peirce from May 1890 through July 1892 -- a period of turmoil as his career unraveled at the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. The loss of his principal source of income meant the beginning of permanent penury and a lifelong struggle to find gainful employment. His key achievement during these years is his celebrated Monist metaphysical project, which consists of five classic articles on evolutionary cosmology. Also included are reviews and essays from The Nation inches.

Proofs in Competition Math: Volume 1
Author: Alexander Toller
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0359714927
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 460
Book Description
All too often, through common school mathematics, students find themselves excelling in school math classes by memorizing formulas, but not their applications or the motivation behind them. As a consequence, understanding derived in this manner is tragically based on little or no proof.This is why studying proofs is paramount! Proofs help us understand the nature of mathematics and show us the key to appreciating its elegance.But even getting past the concern of "why should this be true?" students often face the question of "when will I ever need this in life?" Proofs in Competition Math aims to remedy these issues at a wide range of levels, from the fundamentals of competition math all the way to the Olympiad level and beyond.Don't worry if you don't know all of the math in this book; there will be prerequisites for each skill level, giving you a better idea of your current strengths and weaknesses and allowing you to set realistic goals as a math student. So, mathematical minds, we set you off!

Elementary Abstract Algebra, Examples and Applications Volume 1: Foundations
Author: Justin Hill
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0359042112
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
This book is not intended for budding mathematicians. It was created for a math program in which most of the students in upper-level math classes are planning to become secondary school teachers. For such students, conventional abstract algebra texts are practically incomprehensible, both in style and in content. Faced with this situation, we decided to create a book that our students could actually read for themselves. In this way we have been able to dedicate class time to problem-solving and personal interaction rather than rehashing the same material in lecture format.

Book of Proof
Author: Richard H. Hammack
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780989472111
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
This book is an introduction to the language and standard proof methods of mathematics. It is a bridge from the computational courses (such as calculus or differential equations) that students typically encounter in their first year of college to a more abstract outlook. It lays a foundation for more theoretical courses such as topology, analysis and abstract algebra. Although it may be more meaningful to the student who has had some calculus, there is really no prerequisite other than a measure of mathematical maturity.

Papers in Philosophical Logic: Volume 1
Author: David Lewis
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521587884
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
This is the first of a three-volume collection of David Lewis's most recent papers in all the areas to which he has made significant contributions. The purpose of this collection (and the two volumes to follow) is to disseminate even more widely the work of a preeminent and influential late twentieth-century philosopher. The papers are now offered in a readily accessible format. This first volume is devoted to Lewis's work on philosophical logic from the last twenty-five years. The topics covered include: deploying the methods of formal semantics from artificial formalised languages to natural languages, model-theoretic investigations of intensional logic, contradiction, relevance, the differences between analog and digital representation, and questions arising from the construction of ambitious formalised philosophical systems. The volume will serve as an important reference tool for all philosophers and their students.

Contraposition : Volume 2
Author: Various
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1304957950
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
This issue of Contraposition calls our notion of authorship into question. When an idea comes into the world, when we find something beautiful for the first time, we often ask: where is this from? Where can I find more? But this impulse can leave us with a sense of being robbed - when the answer is not quite what we'd hoped - or keep us from searching beyond a source that has pleased us. We'd like to suggest that the relative anonymity of most of this issue's contributors doesn't diminish the value of their work; it gives them a special kind of authority-the kind we give to a child's first words, an openness to a new surprising, beautiful, or humorous connection. Contraposition is concerned with finding beauty and importance wherever it appears, no matter who it is that may have created it. Poetry and Fiction by various authors. Edited by Ev Malcolm, Nathan Rupp, Chelsea Rennhoff and Patrick Fallon www.Write2Grow.org

Introduction To Differential Equations, An: Deterministic Modeling, Methods And Analysis (Volume 1)
Author: Anilchandra G Ladde
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company
ISBN: 9813100605
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 542
Book Description
Volume 2: Stochastic Modeling, Methods, and Analysis This is a twenty-first century book designed to meet the challenges of understanding and solving interdisciplinary problems. The book creatively incorporates “cutting-edge” research ideas and techniques at the undergraduate level. The book also is a unique research resource for undergraduate/graduate students and interdisciplinary researchers. It emphasizes and exhibits the importance of conceptual understandings and its symbiotic relationship in the problem solving process. The book is proactive in preparing for the modeling of dynamic processes in various disciplines. It introduces a “break-down-the problem” type of approach in a way that creates “fun” and “excitement”. The book presents many learning tools like “step-by-step procedures (critical thinking)”, the concept of “math” being a language, applied examples from diverse fields, frequent recaps, flowcharts and exercises. Uniquely, this book introduces an innovative and unified method of solving nonlinear scalar differential equations. This is called the “Energy/Lyapunov Function Method”. This is accomplished by adequately covering the standard methods with creativity beyond the entry level differential equations course.
