Algebra and Functions Workbook (Mathematics Learning And Practice Ser.)
by Mel FriedmanMany students continue to struggle in high school math courses because they failed to master the basic mathematical skills. REA's new Ready, Set, Go! Workbook series takes the confusion out of math, helping students raise their grades and score higher on important exams. What makes REA's workbooks different? For starters, students will actually like using them. Here's why: * Math is explained in simple language, in an easy-to-follow style * The workbooks allow students to learn at their own pace and master the subject * More than 20 lessons break down the material into the basics * Each lesson is fully devoted to a key math concept and includes many step-by-step examples * Paced instruction with drills and quizzes reinforces learning * The innovative "Math Flash" feature offers helpful tips and strategies in each lesson--including advice on common mistakes to avoid * Skill scorecard measures the student's progress and success * Every answer to every question, in every test, is explained in full detail * A final exam is included so students can test what they've learned When students apply the skills they've mastered in our workbooks, they can do better in class, raise their grades, and score higher on the all-important end-of-course, graduation, and exit exams. Some of the math topics covered in the Algebra & Functions Workbook include: * Variables and Algebraic Expressions * Linear Equations * Properties of Real Numbers * Word Problems * Proportions * Percents * Exponents * Factoring and more! Whether used in a classroom, for home or self study, or with a tutor, this workbook gets students ready for important math tests and exams, set to take on new challenges, and helps them go forward in their studies!

Algebra: Form and Function (Second Edition)
by Eric Connally Elliot J. Marks Pat Shure Carl Swenson Deborah Hughes-Hallett Philip Cheifetz Ann Davidian Brigitte Lahme Patti Frazer Lock William G. Mccallum David Lovelock Ellen Schmierer Aysegul Sahin Adam H. Spiegler Selin KalaycýoðluAlgebra: Form and Function offers a fresh approach to algebra that focuses on teaching readers how to truly understand the principles, rather than viewing them merely as tools for other forms of mathematics. Meant for a College Algebra course, Algebra: Form and Function is an introduction to one of the fundamental aspects of modern society. Algebraic equations describe the laws of science, the principles of engineering, and the rules of business. The power of algebra lies in the efficient symbolic representation of complex ideas, which also presents the main difficulty in learning it. It is easy to forget the underlying structure of algebra and rely instead on a surface knowledge of algebraic manipulations. Most students rely on surface knowledge of algebraic manipulations without understanding the underlying structure of algebra that allows them to see patterns and apply it to multiple situations: McCallum focuses on the structure from the start.

Ali and Nino: A Love Story
by Kurban Said"Ali and Nino" is the epic novel of enduring romance in a time of war. It has been hailed as one of the most romantic epic novels of all time. Ali and Nino, two lovers from vastly different backgrounds, grow up together in carefree innocence in Baku on the Caspian Sea. Here, where Eastern and Occidental collide, they are inevitably drawn into the events of the First World War and the Russian Revolution. Torn apart by the turmoil, Ali joins the defense of Azerbajan from the onslaught of the Red Army, and Nino flees to the safety of Paris with their child, not knowing whether they will ever see each other again. A sweeping tale, as romantic and gripping as "Gone with the Wind" or "Dr. Zhivago," it portrays, against a gloriously exotic backdrop, the enduring love between childhood friends divided by their separate cultures.
Alice + Freda Forever: A Murder in Memphis
by Alexis CoeAlice + Freda Forever is a gut-wrenching story of love, death, and the dangers of intolerance."—Bustle In 1892, America was obsessed with a teenage murderess, but it wasn't her crime that shocked the nation—it was her motivation. Nineteen-year-old Alice Mitchell had planned to pass as a man in order to marry her seventeen-year-old fiancée Freda Ward, but when their love letters were discovered, they were forbidden from ever speaking again. Freda adjusted to this fate with an ease that stunned a heartbroken Alice. Her desperation grew with each unanswered letter—and her father's razor soon went missing. On January 25, Alice publicly slashed her ex-fiancée's throat. Her same-sex love was deemed insane by her father that very night, and medical experts agreed: This was a dangerous and incurable perversion. As the courtroom was expanded to accommodate national interest, Alice spent months in jail—including the night that three of her fellow prisoners were lynched (an event which captured the attention of journalist and civil rights activist Ida B. Wells). After a jury of "the finest men in Memphis" declared Alice insane, she was remanded to an asylum, where she died under mysterious circumstances just a few years later. Alice + Freda Forever recounts this tragic, real-life love story with over 100 illustrated love letters, maps, artifacts, historical documents, newspaper articles, courtroom proceedings, and intimate, domestic scenes.
Alice Macleod, Realist At Last
by Susan JubyIn her third book, Alice is facing grade 12 with several changes in her life. Her boyfriend is spending the year in Scotland and then wants to go to a college far away. Her best friend is in a pre-vet intensive program. And to top it all off, her mother has gone to prison for protesting at a mining facility. Her dad is forced to get a job, his first, and so is Alice. She waitresses, leads hikes, and helps out at Betty Lou's yarn shop. By the end of the book, she is still working, still trying to figure out boys, and has finished the play she is writing. Chapters alternate between the teen's diary entries and scenes from her screenplay in progress. Alice is an individual who will keep readers laughing. The dichotomy between what she describes and what readers are sure is happening will lead to smiles, and her experiences will ring true to many teenage girls. Her hippie parents and super-smart brother lend a few laughs. The book will be a hit with fans of the series and with readers who like romantic comedies.
Alice Paul and the Fight for Women's Rights: From the Vote to the Equal Rights Amendment
by Deborah KopsHere is the story of extraordinary leader Alice Paul, from the woman suffrage movement—the long struggle for votes for women—to the “second wave,” when women demanded full equality with men. <P><P> Paul made a significant impact on both. She reignited the sleepy suffrage moment with dramatic demonstrations and provocative banners. After women won the vote in 1920, Paul wrote the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), which would make all the laws that discriminated against women unconstitutional. Passage of the ERA became the rallying cry of a new movement of young women in the 1960s and ’70s. Paul saw another chance to advance women’s rights when the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 began moving through Congress. She set in motion the “sex amendment,” which remains a crucial legal tool for helping women fight discrimination in the workplace. <P><P> Includes archival images, author’s note, bibliography, and source notes.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: 150th Anniversary Edition (The Black Cat Series)
by Lewis Carroll Thomas Banchoff Mark Burstein Salvador DalíCommemorating the 150th anniversary of one of the most beloved classics of children's literature, this illustrated edition presents Alice like you’ve never seen her before.In 1865, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, an Oxford mathematician and Anglican deacon, published a story about a little girl who tumbles down a rabbit hole. Thus was the world first introduced to Alice and her pseudonymous creator, Lewis Carroll. This beautiful new edition of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland features rarely seen illustrations by Salvador Dalí that illuminate the surreal yet curiously logical and mathematical realm into which Alice famously falls.In an informative and wide-ranging introduction, Carroll expert Mark Burstein discusses Dalí’s connections with Carroll, his treatment of the symbolic figure of Alice, and the mathematical nature of Wonderland. In addition, mathematician Thomas Banchoff reflects on the friendship he shared with Dalí and explores the mathematical undercurrents in Dalí’s work.
