The Practice Of Statistics

by Dan S. Yates and David S. Moore and Daren S. Starnes

The Practice of Statistics: TI-83/84/89 Graphing Calculator Enhanced (TPS), Third Edition, is an introductory text that focuses on data and statistical reasoning. It is intended for high school, college, and university students whose primary technological tool is the TI-83, TI-84, or TI-89 graphing calculator.

This book is based on the successful college textbooks The Basic Practice of Statistics (BPS) by David Moore and Introduction to the Practice of Statistics (IPS) by David Moore and George McCabe.

The Practice of Statistics was the first book written specifically for the College Board AP1 Statistics course. Statisticians have reached general consensus about the nature of a modern introductory statistics course.

A joint committee of the American Statistical Association and the Mathematical Association of America summarized this consensus as follows: Emphasize statistical thinking Present more data and concepts with less theory and fewer formulas Foster active learning

Calculus

by Ron Larson and Robert Hostetler and Bruce H. Edwards

Designed for the three-semester engineering calculus course, Calculus: Early Transcendental Functions, 4/e, continues to offer instructors and students innovative teaching and learning resources. Two primary objectives guided the authors in the revision of this book: to develop precise, readable materials for students that clearly define and demonstrate concepts and rules of calculus; and to design comprehensive teaching resources for instructors that employ proven pedagogical techniques and save time. The Larson/Hostetler/Edwards Calculus program offers a solution to address the needs of any calculus course and any level of calculus student. Every edition from the first to the fourth of Calculus: Early Transcendental Functions, 4/e has made the mastery of traditional calculus skills a priority, while embracing the best features of new technology and, when appropriate, calculus reform ideas. Now, the Fourth Edition is part of the first calculus program to offer algorithmic homework and testing created in Maple so that answers can be evaluated with complete mathematical accuracy.

Discrete Mathematics with Applications

by Susanna S. Epp

NIMAC-sourced textbook

Susanna Epp's DISCRETE MATHEMATICS, THIRD EDITION provides a clear introduction to discrete mathematics. Renowned for her lucid, accessible prose, Epp explains complex, abstract concepts with clarity and precision. This book presents not only the major themes of discrete mathematics, but also the reasoning that underlies mathematical thought. Students develop the ability to think abstractly as they study the ideas of logic and proof. While learning about such concepts as logic circuits and computer addition, algorithm analysis, recursive thinking, computability, automata, cryptography, and combinatorics, students discover that the ideas of discrete mathematics underlie and are essential to the science and technology of the computer age. Overall, Epp's emphasis on reasoning provides students with a strong foundation for computer science and upper-level mathematics courses.

The Practice of Statistics for the AP® Exam

by Daren S. Starnes and Josh Tabor

Along came Dan Yates. His vision for such a text became reality with the publication of The Practice of Statistics (TPS) in 1998. Over a million students have used one of the first five editions of TPS for AP® Statistics! Dan also championed the importance of developing high-quality resources for AP® Statistics teachers, which were originally provided in a Teachers' Resource Binder. We stand on the shoulders of two giants in statistics education as we carry forward their visions in this and future editions. The Practice of Statistics has continued to evolve, thanks largely to the support of our longtime editor and team captain, Ann Heath. Her keen eye for design is evident throughout the pages of the student and teacher's editions. More importantly, Ann's ability to oversee all of the complex pieces of this project while maintaining a good sense of humor is legendary. Ann has continually challenged everyone involved with TPS to innovate in ways that benefit AP® Statistics students and teachers. She is a good friend and an inspirational leader.

Prentice Hall Biology (California Edition)

by Kenneth R. Miller and Joseph S. Levine

Biology isn't just a "subject" in school. Biology is the science of life itself. Biology is the study of what makes an eagle fly, a flower bloom, or a caterpillar turn into a butterfly. It's the study of ourselves--of how our bodies grow and change and respond to the outside world, and it's the study of our planet, a world transformed by the actions of living things. All organisms interact with one another and with the environment in ways that create our planet's web of life. Organisms make tropical rain forests and coral reefs, prairies and swamps--and farms and cities. Our interactions involve not only each other--but also the winds and ocean currents that tie our planet together. Human activity can change, and is changing, local and global environments in ways that alter our ability to produce food and protect ourselves from diseases. We are one on the global ecological level.

Biology (California)

by Stephen Nowicki

"The 21st century will be the century of biological science, just as the 20th century was the century of physical science," predicts Professor Stephen Nowicki, an award-winning teacher at Duke University. Dr. Nowicki has adapted his acclaimed introductory biology course for The Teaching Company to bring you up to date on one of the most important fields of knowledge of our time and help you appreciate the marvelous diversity and complexity of life. You will obtain the background and guidance to explore in depth the fundamental principles of how living things work-principles such as evolution by natural selection, the cellular structure of organisms, the DNA theory of inheritance, and much more. This challenging course is organized around three major themes: "Information and Evolution," "Development and Homeostasis," and "Energy and Resources." You will explore living systems at all levels, from biological molecules to global ecosystems. You will gain insight into pressing issues facing society, including genetic modification and cloning, stem-cell research, AIDS, the depletion of the rainforests, and global warming. You will discover mechanisms behind such intriguing phenomena as why children resemble their parents, why plants bend toward light, how memories are stored, why some birds have very long tails, and how life itself began on Earth. Above all, you will learn how to think about biology, so that in your day-to-day life you will understand the significance and complexities of news stories, medical issues, and public debates, not to mention what is going on in your own garden and in nature all around you.

Chemistry

by Theodore L. Brown and H. Eugene Lemay Jr. and Bruce E. Bursten

This is the tenth edition of a text that has enjoyed unprecedented success as an AP* program over its many editions. It is fair to ask why there needs to be yet another edition. The answer in part lies in the nature of chemistry itself, a dy¬namic science in a process of continual discovery. New research leads to new applications of chemistry in other fields of science and in technology. A text¬book that purports to introduce chemistry to AP* students who have only a limited prior acquaintance with it should reflect that dynamic, changing char¬acter.
