Book excerpt: Albert, the indomitable, hardworking, dedicated duck who has appeared in seven previous books by Leslie Tryon, has been a busy duck indeed. He has built an alphabet for the school playground (Albert's Alphabet), directed the school play (Albert's Play), organized a school field trip (Albert's Field Trip), and coached the Pleasant Valley baseball team (Albert's Ballgame). He has helped with the big Thanksgiving celebration (Albert's Thanksgiving), gathered the kids together to meet a special visitor on Christmas Eve (Albert's Christmas), and solved the mystery of the missing pumpkins (Albert's Halloween). And now it's time for Albert to be celebrated in return. It's his birthday, and Patsy Pig has organized his surprise party as only she can, right down to the last detail. But will the one detail she forgets ruin the whole affair? Once again Leslie Tryon brings us Albert and the Pleasant Valley gang in a story full of warmth and humor, accompanied by her marvelously detailed artwork.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tenth anniversary edition of the iconic book about the wonderful world of maths Sunday Times bestseller | Shortlisted for the BBC Samuel Johnson Prize 'Original and highly entertaining' Sunday Times 'A page turner about humanity's strange, never easy and, above all, never dull relationship with numbers' New Scientist 'Will leave you hooked on numbers' Daily Telegraph In this richly entertaining and accessible book, Alex Bellos explodes the myth that maths is best left to the geeks, and demonstrates the remarkable ways it's linked to our everyday lives. Alex explains the surprising geometry of the 50p piece, and the strategy of how best to gamble it in a casino. He shines a light on the mathematical patterns in nature, and on the peculiar predictability of random behaviour. He eats a potato crisp whose revolutionary shape was unpalatable to the ancient Greeks, and he shows the deep connections between maths, religion and philosophy. From the world's fastest mental calculators in Germany to numerologists in the US desert, from a startlingly numerate chimpanzee in Japan to venerable Hindu sages in India, these dispatches from 'Numberland' are an unlikely but exhilarating cocktail of history, reportage and mathematical proofs. The world of maths is a much friendlier and more colourful place than you might have imagined. This anniversary edition is fully revised and updated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am the great grandson of a black Baptist preacher, Alfred “Parson” Williams, founding pastor, Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church, Tampa, Florida. I want to share with you the path I remember following with the aid of helpers, to my personal fulfillment as a minister in the cohort of United Methodist preachers. I had not thought that much about my maternal great-grandfather. And certainly, not at all about a career as a preacher! Through my sharing what I recall of my path, my intent and hope is that the reader will see that his/her path, like mine, turns on forward movement. The movement of oneself in a chosen goal-centered direction that is neither deterred by obstacles nor thrown off course by crises-yet-to-unfold. A movement of oneself in which your focus is sharpened by what you take as the source of your vision and power to move. For me, I saw my Source as God, The Almighty. In any direction of your movement, your helpers can and will appear either as an animate or inanimate entity, as like or unlike you racially or culturally or by some other measure. Yours is to move forward in awareness of your own auto-correct power to review and revise decisions you will have made yesterday or yesteryear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seven stories in this volume were written during the ascending and perhaps most triumphant years of Willa Cather's career, the period during which she published nine books, including My Ántonia, A Lost Lady, and Death Comes for the Archbishop. For the most part ironic in tone, these stories are, as Bernice Slote observes, bound by the geometrics of urban life—streets and offices, workers and firms, the business world of New York and Pittsburgh, the cities which by 1929 Willa Cather had known well for over thirty years." In her introduction, Slote discusses their biographical elements, connections with earlier and later work, and the intricate patterns that lie below the lucid, shimmering surface of Willa Cather's prose.

Book excerpt: Welcome to Melissa Albert's The Hazel Wood—the fiercely stunning New York Times bestseller everyone is raving about! Seventeen-year-old Alice and her mother have spent most of Alice’s life on the road, always a step ahead of the uncanny bad luck biting at their heels. But when Alice’s grandmother, the reclusive author of a cult-classic book of pitch-dark fairy tales, dies alone on her estate, the Hazel Wood, Alice learns how bad her luck can really get: Her mother is stolen away—by a figure who claims to come from the Hinterland, the cruel supernatural world where her grandmother's stories are set. Alice's only lead is the message her mother left behind: “Stay away from the Hazel Wood.” Alice has long steered clear of her grandmother’s cultish fans. But now she has no choice but to ally with classmate Ellery Finch, a Hinterland superfan who may have his own reasons for wanting to help her. To retrieve her mother, Alice must venture first to the Hazel Wood, then into the world where her grandmother's tales began—and where she might find out how her own story went so wrong. Don’t miss the bestselling sequel to The Hazel Wood, The Night Country or the illustrated collection of twelve fairy tales, Tales from the Hinterland!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At midnight on June 28, 1944, four well-armed civilians attempted a daring armed robbery of the $4,329,000 Camp Lejeune payroll being transported under heavy guard from the First National Bank in the small Coastal Plain town of Kinston, North Carolina. The would-be hijackers were cut down in a hail of submachine gun fire. Taking this foiled attempt as a warning, a bold Marine Corps colonel and the avaricious bank manager set in motion an elaborate ruse to steal the $6,327,412 January 1945 payroll from the bank vault prior to its transfer. The audacious scheme was brilliantly planned and executed with precision. Lawmen were stymied. The only things standing in the way of complete success were the greed of the co-conspirators and an unforeseen encounter with someone not even associated with the heist.

A contemporary, easy-to-teach text by the Reporters for the new Restatement of the Law Liability Insurance, this casebook invites students and teachers to re-imagine the field of Insurance Law. The authors demonstrate the big-picture role of insurance law and policy in American business and society, exploring federal-state regulatory roles in depth as well as the traditional topics covered in casebooks. Insurance Law and Policy: Cases and Materials uses more statutory material than any other casebook, with statutes typically presented through problems. Manageable assignments contain one major case followed by informative notes, questions and a problem. This text appeals to Insurance teachers as well as teachers of Torts and Contracts considering a new course. The Teacher’s Manual—with case briefs, backgrounds on selected cases, simple diagrams that explain complex issues, and answers to questions and problems—is especially useful for instructors new to the course. New to the Fifth Edition: Expanded coverage of the role of insurance in disasters and catastrophes, including the COVID-19 pandemic Extensive treatment of the now-finalized Restatement of the Law, Liability Insurance Reorganization of the liability insurance chapters to facilitate more step-by-step learning Replacement of a few difficult-to-teach cases with new, more straightforward cases Professors and student will benefit from: Focus on the big picture of federal-state regulatory roles in addition to the traditional insurance coverage topics addressed in other Insurance Law casebooks Extensive use of statutory materials, with statutes typically presented through carefully-constructed problems Manageable assignments structured with one major case, informative notes, questions, and a problem Interesting, up-to-date cases, with context-setting introductions, on topics such as cyber insurance, the role of private insurance in responding to public catastrophes, and the new Restatement of the Law Liability Insurance Cases are longer, providing students better grounding in the art of extracting useful knowledge from judicial opinions Elimination of some of the arcane aspects of insurance law in favor of presenting a broad and conceptual overview of the field

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Python for Science and Engineering offers a quick and incisive introduction to the Python programming language for use in any science or engineering discipline. The approach is pedagogical and “bottom up,” which means starting with examples and extracting more general principles from that experience. No prior programming experience is assumed. Readers will learn the basics of Python syntax, data structures, input and output, conditionals and loops, user-defined functions, plotting, animation, and visualization. They will also learn how to use Python for numerical analysis, including curve fitting, random numbers, linear algebra, solutions to nonlinear equations, numerical integration, solutions to differential equations, and fast Fourier transforms. Readers learn how to interact and program with Python using JupyterLab and Spyder, two simple and widely used integrated development environments. All the major Python libraries for science and engineering are covered, including NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib, and Pandas. Other packages are also introduced, including Numba, which can render Python numerical calculations as fast as compiled computer languages such as C but without their complex overhead.
