Wonder in its verb form is to feel curiosity and be excited by something new. The noun transmits something that causes such a feeling. The methodology behind the Richmond Wonders series lives up to this definition and will provide a pleasant learning experience for both the children and the teacher.

Each unit of work is a web of different strands of learning objectives leading off from a central focus. The unit web strands interleave and interleave again with the subsequent levels to create a solid language fabric.

Designed for primary school children (aged 6-7). Book is linked to its audio, just keep everything in the same folder in order to function.

 

This book is an ideal text for an advanced course in the theory of complex functions. The author successfully enables the reader to experience function theory personally and to participate in the work of the creative mathematician. Unlike the first volume, it contains numerous glimpses of the function theory of several complex variables emphasizing how autonomous this discipline has become. Covered are Weierstrass' product theorem, Mittag-Leffler's theorem, the Riemann mapping theorem, and Runge's theorems on approximations of analytic functions.

After years of neglect by both mainstream biology and psychology, the study of emotions has emerged as a central topic of scientific inquiry in the vibrant new discipline of affective neuroscience. Elizabeth Johnston and Leah Olson trace how work in this rapidly expanding field speaks to fundamental questions about the nature of emotion: What is the function of emotions? What is the role of the body in emotions? What are "feelings,” and how do they relate to emotions? Why are emotions so difficult to control? Is there an emotional brain?

"Lippincott s Illustrated Reviews: Physiology" brings physiology clearly into focus, telling the story of who we are, how we live, and, ultimately, how we die. By "first" identifying organ function and "then "showing how cells and tissues are designed to fulfill that function, "Lippincott Illustrated Reviews: Physiology" decodes this discipline like no other text or review book. Each element was tailored for ease of use and fast content absorption, all combining to bring this story to life for readers.

This book summarizes our current understanding about the biology and patho-biology of cardiomyocytes and depicts common techniques for the study of these cells. The book is divided into two parts; the first part provides insight into role and function of cardiomyocytes under normal conditions and describes embryogenesis and differentiation, in the second part the role of cardiomyocytes in aging and disease is discussed and cellular responses under stress conditions illustrated. Cardiomyocytes represent the main mass of the heart, and cellular malfunction directly modifies heart function leading to subsequent heart failure.
