No Sophomore Slump
Like many of you, I have been waiting for quite some time for Mr. Marks next book....No More Mac & Cheese was a groundbreaking accomplishment, and was #1 on the San Mateo Times Nonfiction Best Seller list for 182 straight weeks....clearly the expectations for this book are high, since Mr. Marks has not published in over a decade...in fact, when No More Mac & Cheese was initially published, ...

Physics of Waves

William C. Elmore, Mark A. Heald

Dover Publications, 1985

Hit and Miss
Elmore and Heald is a very hit and miss book. The first chapter about simple transverse waves on strings is pretty good except for the confusing treatment of Fourier series (which I can't imagine would help anyone who hasn't seen them before). Chapter 3 on elastic theory was fine too and the EM waves stuff in chapter 8 wasn't bad. However, the introduction to tensors in chapter 7 and their ...

Rebels, Mavericks, and Heretics in Biology

Yale University Press, 2008

The Kimura Part
Unfortunately, the Kimura section doesn't reflect new work in the history of mathematics, so it cannot explain the neutral theory as a piece of constructivist mathematics, which it is. The lineage is pretty straightforward: Kimura back to Malecot, back to Borel, the latter of whom was one of the early twentieth-century responders to issues raised by Cantorian set theory. In other words, ...

Understanding Sleep: The Evaluation and Treatment of Sleep Disorders

American Psychological Association (APA), 1997

A "good night's sleep" is not just a luxury. How well a person sleeps can affect cognitive functioning, mental health, work performance, quality of life, and physiological and immune functions. Yet until recently, sleep, a complex and surprisingly active process, has been poorly understood. This edited volume, which looks at the newest developments in sleep research, gives readers an easy-to-understand review of the biological rhythms and stages ...

Mapping America's Past: A Historical Atlas (Henry Holt Reference Book)

5 reviews
Mark C. Carnes, John A. Garraty, ...

Henry Holt and Co., 1996

A different view of American History
Finally, a historical atlas with the imagination to look beyond the requisite but unilluminating maps of wars, battles, and westward expansion to the rich territory of social history. Urban sprawl and white flight, ethnic politics, prostitution, the death penalty, segregation, civil rights, and many others all put in an appearance here. Some of the maps, while seemingly provincial in their ...

The Assault on Equality

1 review
Peter Knapp, Jane C. Kronick, ...

Praeger Paperback, 1996

of some interest
In many ways, this is a disappointing book. Predictable in its attempt to create a 'scathing' rebuttal to the hideous 'Bell Curve', this book offers little to anyone versed in the incredible variety of contemporary feminist discourse. For those prepared for some *real* thinking, try more transgressive/radical voices, such as Patricia Williams, bell hooks, Mary Daly, and many others; also, see ...

Cate Richards, Jane Calabria, ...

Que, 1997

One of the best if not the best of the Notes 4.5 books.
The previous reviewer is correct that the previous published work did cover a lot of the Notes basics. However after you look at what is on the CD and the text you will see the value of this book. This book definitely has assisted me in developing many of the applications that I have written for my clients. The text is written so that you don't have to read a whole chapter in the book. You ...
