Learning to Speak a Second Language

How to speak fluently in less time — whether in an established school or in independent study.

The third edition of this highly regarded introductory textbook continues to cover all aspects of nutrition, including nutritional epidemiology, social aspects of nutrition, the science of food as a source of energy and essential nutrients, and the microbiological safety of food and food processing. Its focus is on nutrition in industrialized nations where nutritional deficiencies in the traditional sense are less of an issue, but the roles of diet in causing or preventing chronic disease and maintaining good 'life-long' health and well-being are gaining ever-increasing attention. 

Handbook of Geometric Analysis, No. 3 (volume 14 of the Advanced Lectures in Mathematics series)

Geometric Analysis combines differential equations and differential geometry. An important aspect is to solve geometric problems by studying differential equations. Besides some known linear differential operators such as the Laplace operator, many differential equations arising from differential geometry are nonlinear. A particularly important example is the Monge-Ampère equation. Applications to geometric problems have also motivated new methods and techniques in differential equations.

The field of geometric analysis is broad and has had many striking applications.
