This book is a rich resource intended to support teachers and teachers in training with their teaching of mathematics in the early years. It comprises twenty activities which can be used as starting points. For each activity there are suggestions about how children might respond and guidance as to how the children may be further developed as learners. Support is also given to enable the teacher to embed the learning in a theoretical framework and make links with the National Curriculum.
This book is the English translation of the textbook Numerische Mathematik, a highly successful European text on numerical analysis. It covers the usual classical topics of numerical analysis and also includes recent developments such as an up-to-date treatment of splines, linear optimization methods, and multidimensional numerical analysis. The text is desiged to be used in a first course in numerical analysis at the advanced undergraduate level or at the beginning graduate level.

Originally published in 1899. This volume from the Cornell University Library's print collections was scanned on an APT BookScan and converted to JPG 2000 format by Kirtas Technologies. All titles scanned cover to cover and pages may include marks notations and other marginalia present in the original volume.
Diffusions, Superdiffusions and Partial Differential Equations
Interactions between the theory of partial differential equations of elliptic and parabolic types and the theory of stochastic processes are beneficial for both probability theory and analysis. At the beginning, mostly analytic results were used by probabilists.
The Theory of Gambling and Statistical Logic, Second Edition
Early in his rise to enlightenment, man invented a concept that has since been variously viewed as a vice, a crime, a business, a pleasure, a type of magic, a disease, a folly, a weakness, a form of sexual substitution, an expression of the human instinct. He invented gambling.
