Box-Making Projects for the Scroll Saw - 30 Woodworking Projects That Are Surprisingly Easy to Make
The basics of box-making are covered in this manual for the scroll saw, including designs for hinged and lift-off lids, boxes with drawers, and laminated boxes. Patterns are provided for 30 eye-catching variations of such items as recipe and tissue boxes, knitting trays, desk organizers, jewelry boxes, and boxes embellished with stacked wood to create checkerboard, diamond, pinwheel or pie-segmented effects.
Global Behavior of Nonlinear Difference Equations of Higher Order with Applications
This volume presents a systematic study of the global behaviour of solutions of nonlinear scalar difference equations of order greater than one. Of particular interest are aspects such as global asymptotic stability, periodicity, permanence and persistence, and also semicycles of solutions. As well as exposing the reader to the very frontiers of the subject, important open problems are also formulated.
The purpose of this book is to give media specialists, teachers and/or teacher helpers and parents a guide to using beginning chapter books to encourage first and second graders to read independently. The book contains in-depth lesson plans for 35 early chapter books. Each lesson contains bibliographic information plus setting, characters, plot, solution, and book summary. Activities for the media specialist to provide schema, prediction, fluency, and information literacy skill instruction is provided as well.
How to Guard an Art Gallery and Other Discrete Mathematical Adventures
What is the maximum number of pizza slices one can get by making four straight cuts through a circular pizza?

Discrete mathematics has the answer to these -- and many other -- questions of picking, choosing, and shuffling. T. S. Michael's gem of a book brings this vital but tough-to-teach subject to life using examples from real life and popular culture.
