The book offers a fascinating snapshot of magic throughout various cultures as well as deep sociological and religious insights still very much relevant today.

This review is designed to familiarize you with the mathematical skills and concepts likely to be tested on the Graduate Record Examinations General Test. The text includes many examples with solutions, and there is a set of exercises at the end of each section. The following material, which is divided into the four basic content areas of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data analysis, is not intended to be comprehensive. It is assumed that certain basic concepts are common knowledge to all examinees. Emphasis is, therefore, placed on the more important skills, concepts, and defmitions, and on those particular areas that are frequently confused or misunderstood. If any of the topics seem especially unfamiliar, we encourage you to consult appropriate mathematics texts for a more detailed treatment of those topics.

The main goal of this book is to propose an analysis of aspects of the syntax of a subset of defective sentential domains: clausal domains that are deficient in terms of their specification for certain features. These features, including primarily tense and agreement, have in general been taken to play a central role in syntactic operations associated with subject realization and interpretation, Case marking and control. The class of such defective domains varies somewhat across languages, including in general gerunds and infinitives, and sometimes subjunctives.

This book is for learners of English as a foreign language, at any level from intermediate upwards, who need to know more about Britain. It is invaluable to students on British Studies courses and to those who are studying British culture as a part of a general English course.
