Learning From Others: International Comparisons in Education
This book describes a number of international comparat ive studies of pupils' achievement, and examines the factors associated with successful teaching and learning and with school effectiveness. It describes the usefulness of such studies for policy makers, test designers, researchers and teachers, while offering a realistic and critical account of their limitations. Both large and small scale studies are considered, and particular attention is given to the contribution that international comparative research can make to raising the standards of work, especially in school science and mathematics, in different educational systems.

Mathematical Statistics: Exercises and Solutions
This book consists of solutions to four hundred exercises, over 95% of which are in the author’s Mathematical Statistics. That textbook covers topics in statistical theory essential for graduate students preparing for work on a Ph.D. degree in statistics. On the other hand, this is a stand-alone book, since exercises and solutions are comprehensible independently of their source. Many solutions involve standard exercises that appear in other textbooks listed in the references. To help readers not using this book with Mathematical Statistics, lists of notation, terminology, and some probability distributions are given in the front of the book.

Four Weeks to a Better-Behaved Child : Breakthrough Discipline Techniques that Work -- for Children Age 2 to 10
A smart, easy-to-implement, and unique approach to positive disciplining
Drawing on her highly successful methods developed in her private practice, Dr. Cristine Chandler lays out clear, step-by-step instructions to help parents foster good behavior in their children based on the positive premise: that children behave well when they understand clearly what is expected of them.
Most discipline problems occur when parents are inconsistent about what they expect. Four Weeks to a Better-Behaved Child shows parents how to implement the "4Cs" of discipline in their daily practice: use clear, consistent, contingent consequences. Moreover, in this concise, straightforward book, Dr. Chandler challenges several commonly used approaches to discipline and provides alternatives. She shows parents:
* Why punishment is often the least effective way to discipline children
* Why anger never works
* Why "time-out" works only sometimes--and what to do instead
* How to use consequences to encourage--and get--good behavior
