Book Synopsis All You Wanted to Know about Mathematics But Were Afraid to Ask by : Louis Lyons
Download or read book All You Wanted to Know about Mathematics But Were Afraid to Ask written by Louis Lyons and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, first published in 1998, is the second in a two volume work and introduces integral and differential calculus, waves, matrices, and eigenvectors for undergraduates in physics and engineering. Together, the two volumes cover all the mathematics needed for an introductory course in the physical sciences. The approach taken is to learn through understanding real examples, showing mathematics as a tool for understanding physical systems and their behaviour. The aim is to make the student feel at home with real problems by creating a toolkit through a wide range of examples. The traditional approach of teaching theory for its own sake is not used in this course. Dr. Lyons brings a wealth of teaching experience to this refreshing textbook on the fundamentals of mathematics for physics and engineering.

This book was released on 1995-10-05 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is the square root of minus one relevant to electrical circuits? Can geometry be used to solve problems in the physical sciences? How could you help a being on a distant planet distinguish left and right? With a clear understanding of mathematics, these questions can be solved. But in many textbooks, mathematical proofs and techniques cloud the issue of understanding the physical principles. This book shows why particular techniques are useful by providing clear and full explanations. The aim is to convey a deeper appreciation of mathematical methods that are applicable to physics and engineering. A wide range of real physical problems are discussed. The author has thirty years experience of teaching mathematics to undergraduates. This book is based on the explanations he has found to be most successful in teaching.

Book Synopsis Who's Afraid of Maths and Science by : Ken Burchett
Download or read book Who's Afraid of Maths and Science written by Ken Burchett and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you were flummoxed by fractions, confused by calculus or sedated by science then 'Who's Afraid of Maths & Science?' might be just the book for you. Written for those who were turned off maths and science at school but who now feel they have missed out, it takes the reader gently through some of the major scientific theories of the twentieth century, including the maths that underpins them. If that sounds scary, don't worry. The section on maths and statistics starts at primary school level, then explains in a step by step manner all those topics you never really mastered at school - negative numbers, fractions, algebra, geometry and even some simple calculus. This is followed by the history of the cosmos, the physics of relativity, quantum mechanics, basic chemistry, evolution, genetics, and chaos theory. Using the simplest algebra you will see why light travels at 300,000 km/sec. Pythagoras will explain why E = mc2. By the end you will understand more maths and science than you ever thought possible, and might even feel that they can be fun.

Book Synopsis Math with Bad Drawings by : Ben Orlin
Download or read book Math with Bad Drawings written by Ben Orlin and published by Black Dog & Leventhal. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hilarious reeducation in mathematics-full of joy, jokes, and stick figures-that sheds light on the countless practical and wonderful ways that math structures and shapes our world. In Math With Bad Drawings, Ben Orlin reveals to us what math actually is; its myriad uses, its strange symbols, and the wild leaps of logic and faith that define the usually impenetrable work of the mathematician. Truth and knowledge come in multiple forms: colorful drawings, encouraging jokes, and the stories and insights of an empathetic teacher who believes that math should belong to everyone. Orlin shows us how to think like a mathematician by teaching us a brand-new game of tic-tac-toe, how to understand an economic crises by rolling a pair of dice, and the mathematical headache that ensues when attempting to build a spherical Death Star. Every discussion in the book is illustrated with Orlin's trademark "bad drawings," which convey his message and insights with perfect pitch and clarity. With 24 chapters covering topics from the electoral college to human genetics to the reasons not to trust statistics, Math with Bad Drawings is a life-changing book for the math-estranged and math-enamored alike.
Book Synopsis Outline of Crystallography for Biologists by : David Blow
Download or read book Outline of Crystallography for Biologists written by David Blow and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2002-04-11 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outline of Crystallography for Biologists is intended for researchers and students in the biological sciences who require an insight into the methods of X-ray crystallography without needing to learn all the relevant theory. The main text is purely descriptive and is readable by those with minimal mathematical knowledge. Some mathematical detail is given throughout in boxes, but these can be ignored. Theory is limited to the essentials required to comprehend issues of quality. There is an extensive reference section and suggestions for further reading for those who wish to delve deeper. The first part 'Fundamentals' presents the underlying ideas which allow x-ray structure analysis to be carried out and provides an appropriate background to courses in structural determination. The second part 'Practice' gives more information about the procedures employed in the course of crystal structure determination. The emphasis is on the quality measures of X-ray diffraction analysis to give the reader a critical insight into the quality and accuracy of a structure determination and to enable the reader to appreciate which parts of a structure determination may have caused special difficulty. There is no pretence of completeness and many matters discussed in standard crystallography texts are deliberately omitted. However, issues not brought out in the standard texts are discussed, making it a useful resource for non-practising crystallographers as well.

This book was released on 2024-04-11 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I cannot recommend this book enough. Kate Muir's writing demystifies, educates and empowers all women to have agency over their own bodies. This book will anger, educate and empower' - Jen Brister An eye-opening, no-holds-barred guide to contraception, written by campaigner, journalist and documentary-maker Kate Muir Everything You Need to Know About the Pill (but were too afraid to ask) is the thinking-woman’s guide to contraception, bringing you answers to all those questions that have been hidden behind a veneer of misplaced shame, bad science and centuries of patriarchy. What's happening to my body - and my mind? Which method of contraception is best for me? Do I really need to take a pill break every three weeks? What about men - where's their pill?! Muir draws on interviews with the leading medical experts in the field, interlaced with her own tumultuous journey with different types of contraception and the personal stories of women from all walks of life, sharing their varied experiences and hard-earned wisdom. Muir also questions why the current medical establishment is getting contraception so wrong, as she debunks the myths and exposes the sloppy science and hysterical headlines that have had a negative impact on women’s health for the last twenty years. This ground-breaking guide is a social, cultural and scientific exploration into a criminally overlooked and under-discussed part of women's lives. It is a manifesto for change, calling for equality in healthcare and an entirely new - and long overdue - approach to women’s health. 'This book finally allows us to think differently about hormones and contraception. Kate is a genius' - Dr Louise Newson ‘Essential reading for any woman who has ever taken the pill, it’s likely to educate, anger and empower’ - Liz Earle Wellbeing Magazine
