Language and Mathematics: An Interdisciplinary Guide

This book explores the many disciplinary and theoretical links between language, linguistics, and mathematics. It examines trends in linguistics, such as structuralism, conceptual metaphor theory, and other relevant theories,to show that language and mathematics have a similar structure, but differential functions, even though one without the other would not exist.

From Limits and Continuity to Integration, Areas and Volumes, there is a lot of subject matter to know if you want to succeed on your AP Calculus AB/BC exams. That’s why we’ve selected these 500 AP-style questions and answers that cover all topics found on these exams. The targeted questions will prepare you for what you’ll see on test day, help you study more effectively, and use your review time wisely to achieve your best score.

This book is an ideal text for an advanced course in the theory of complex functions. The author successfully enables the reader to experience function theory personally and to participate in the work of the creative mathematician. Unlike the first volume, it contains numerous glimpses of the function theory of several complex variables emphasizing how autonomous this discipline has become. Covered are Weierstrass' product theorem, Mittag-Leffler's theorem, the Riemann mapping theorem, and Runge's theorems on approximations of analytic functions.

What can a physicist gain by studying mathematics? By gathering together everything a physicist needs to know about mathematics in one comprehensive and accessible guide, this is the question Mathematics for Physics and Physicists successfully takes on. Mathematics for Physics and Physicists is the resource today's physicists must have to strengthen their math skills and to gain otherwise unattainable insights into their fields of study

This book provides an overview of current research on a variety of topics related to both large-scale and classroom assessment. First, the purposes, traditions and principles of assessment are considered, with particular attention to those common to all levels of assessment and those more connected with either classroom or large-scale assessment. Assessment design based on sound assessment principles is discussed, differentiating between large-scale and classroom assessment, but also examining how the design principles overlap.
