The Companion to Romanticism is a major introductory survey from an international galaxy of scholars writing new pieces, specifically for a student readership, under the editorship of Duncan Wu.
Learning how to write clearly and concisely is an integral part of furthering your research career; however, doing so is not always easy. In this second edition, fully updated and revised, Dr. Silyn-Roberts explains in plain English the steps to writing abstracts, theses, journal papers, funding bids, literature reviews, and more. The book also examines preparing seminar and conference presentations. Written in a practical and easy to follow style specifically for postgraduate students in Engineering and Sciences, this book is essential in learning how to create powerful documents.
This book aims to develop a situative educational model to guide the design and implementation of powerful student-centered learning environments in higher education classrooms. Rooted in educational science, Hoidn contributes knowledge in the fields of general pedagogy, and more specifically, higher education learning and instruction.
Communication is an essential skill for every pilot. The accurate and concise use of the correct phraseology enhances safety and results in a more efficient flight. Nonetheless, communication by radio is often an area that is dreaded by the student pilot. Whilst these notes are intended specifically to prepare the prospective Airline Transport Pilot for the JAR ATPL (A) examinations, they also serve to demystify some of the terminology that is encountered. This volume takes the student from the basic principles of VHF and HF communication to its application in the VFR and IFR environment.
The book I am so pleased to present represents a true innovation in the field of the mathematical didactics and, specifically, in the field of geometry. Based on the long neglected discoveries made by Grassmann, Hamilton and Clifford in the nineteenth century, it presents the geometry -the elementary geometry of the plane, the space, the spacetime- using the best algebraic tools designed specifically for this task, thus making the subject democratically available outside the narrow circle of individuals with the high visual imagination capabilities and the true mathematical insight which were required in the abandoned classical Euclidean tradition.
