Arguing About Political Philosophy (Second Edition)
by Matt ZwolinskiThis second edition of Arguing About Political Philosophy is the most complete, up-to-date, and interdisciplinary anthology of its kind. Its selections cover both classic philosophical sources such as Hobbes and Rousseau, and contemporary figures such as Robert Nozick and G. A. Cohen. But additional excerpts from economists, psychologists, novelists, and legal theorists help students from diverse intellectual backgrounds to connect with and appreciate the problems and distinctive methodology of political philosophy. This second edition also goes beyond any other anthology on the market in its coverage of traditionally under-represented views such as libertarianism, neo-socialism, feminism, and critical race theory. And it is one of the only anthologies to go beyond A Theory of Justice in its coverage of the political thought of John Rawls. The volume is divided into 3 parts - Foundational Concepts; Government, the Economy and Morality; and Applied Political Philosophy - covering core arguments and emerging debates in topics like: social contract theory political economy property rights freedom equality immigration global distributive justice The new companion website offers valuable resources for instructors and students alike, including sample quizzes, exams, and writing assignments, extensive study questions for each reading, and an online version of the "What's Your Political Philosophy" self-assessment.
Grammar and Beyond: Level 2 Workbook
by Lawrence J. Zwier Harry HoldenStudents learn real-world language. Grammar and Beyond is based on extensive corpus research into the ways that grammar is used in the real world. The series takes this research base and focuses students' attention on the most relevant and accurate information. Students then immediately apply what they have learned in speaking and writing. While the series places special emphasis on grammar for writing, all four skills are covered thoroughly. As students prepare to write, they practice editing common mistakes-based on an extensive collection of student writing. Then, they apply the grammar directly in a writing task, making a clear connection between what they study and how they write.

World of Chemistry
by Steven S. Zumdahl Susan L. Zumdahl Donald J. DeCosteChemistry textbooks are written differently from non-technical textbooks. With this in mind, be aware that reading five pages in a chemistry textbook will probably take much more time than reading five pages in an English or a history textbook. If you want to understand this chemistry text, prepare to spend a great deal of time reading each section within a chapter. If you flip through this book, you will notice many examples, explanations, diagrams, charts, symbols, and photos to read, analyze, and interpret. You should read the text in each section and incorporate these visuals in your reading. You will quickly find that these visuals are very useful in helping you understand the subject matter.

by Steven S. Zumdahl Susan A. Zumdahl Donald J. DeCosteLearn the skills you need to succeed in your chemistry course with CHEMISTRY, Tenth Edition. This trusted text has helped generations of students learn to “think like chemists” and develop problem-solving skills needed to master even the most challenging problems. Clear explanations and interactive examples help you build confidence for the exams, so that you can study to understand rather than simply memorize.
Chemistry
by Steven S. Zumdahl Susan A. ZumdahlSteven and Susan Zumdahl's CHEMISTRY 8e brings together the solid pedagogy, easy-to-use media, and interactive exercises that today's instructors need for their general chemistry course. Rather than rote memorization, CHEMISTRY emphasizes a thoughtful approach built on problem-solving. For the Eighth Edition, the authors have extended this approach by emphasizing problem-solving strategies within the Examples and throughout the text narrative. The text speaks directly to the student about how to approach and solve chemical problems--to learn to think like a chemist--so that they can apply the process of problem-solving to all aspects of their lives. Students are provided with the tools to become critical thinkers: to ask questions, to apply rules and develop models, and to evaluate the outcome.
Chemistry (5th edition)
by Steven S. Zumdahl Susan A. ZumdahlThe fifth edition of Chemistry presents the concepts of chemistry in a clear, interesting, and student-friendly manner. Since visual material is especially important for learning general chemistry, which typically presents a pictorial view of chemical concepts, the illustrations representing the microscopic world of chemistry have been redone in this edition to improve their clarity and appearance. Special illustrations and color photographs integrate descriptive chemistry with chemical principles, and many new Chemical Impact features emphasize practical applications of newly learned concepts.
Chemistry (6th Edition, Media Enhanced Edition)
by Steven S. Zumdahl Susan A. ZumdahlConceptual approach to problem-solving, high-quality end-of-chapter problems, student friendly writing style and a strong emphasis on models and real-world applications are the highlights of this Chemistry 6th Edition. The new Media Enhanced Edition provides students with easy access to the media resources that support the goals of the text.
Chemistry (7th edition)
by Steven S. Zumdahl Susan A. ZumdahlAuthors bring a conceptual approach to chemistry and integrate problem-solving skills throughout, helping students transition from theory to practice. A strong emphasis on models, real-world applications, and visual learning prevails throughout the text.
Chemistry, AP* Edition
by Steven S. Zumdahl Susan A. ZumdahlThis fully updated Ninth Edition of Steven and Susan Zumdahl's CHEMISTRY brings together the solid pedagogy, easy-to-use media, and interactive exercises that today's instructors need for their general chemistry course. Rather than focusing on rote memorization, CHEMISTRY uses a thoughtful approach built on problem-solving. For the Ninth Edition, the authors have added a new emphasis on critical systematic problem solving, new critical thinking questions, and new computer-based interactive examples to help students learn how to approach and solve chemical problems--to learn to think like chemists--so that they can apply the process of problem solving to all aspects of their lives. Students are provided with the tools to become critical thinkers: to ask questions, to apply rules and develop models, and to evaluate the outcome. In addition, Steven and Susan Zumdahl crafted ChemWork, an online program included in OWL Online Web Learning to support their approach, much as an instructor would offer support during office hours. ChemWork is just one of many study aids available with CHEMISTRY that supports the hallmarks of the textbook--a strong emphasis on models, real world applications, visual learning, and independent problem solving.
