Every English-language writer knows Strunk and White's famous little writing manual, The Elements of Style. Many people between the ages of seventeen and seventy can recite the book's mantra--make every word tell--and still refer to their tattered grade school copy when in need of a hint on how to make a turn of phrase clearer, or a reminder on how to enliven prose with the active voice. Considering that millions of copies have been sold to millions of devotees, you might not think to ask what could enhance this (almost) perfect classic. In fact, the addition of illustrations allows readers to experience the book's contents in a completely new way, making the whole learning experience more colorful and clear, as well as adding a whimsical element that compliments the subtly humorous tone of the prose. The Elements of Style Illustrated will come to be known as the definitive, must-have edition. Maira Kalman is the offbeat and wildly talented illustrator of twelve children's books, numerous covers

For beginning econometrics students or practitioners interested in updates and a refresher. A thorough and beginner-friendly introduction to econometrics. Using Econometrics: A Practical Guide provides students with a practical introduction that combines single-equation linear regression analysis with real-world examples and exercises. This text also avoids complex matrix algebra and calculus, making it an ideal text for beginner econometrics students. New problem sets and added support make Using Econometrics modern and easier to use.

Now in use at over 200 colleges and universities, Cognition: Exploring the Science of the Mind is one of thepremier textbooks in the field. This exciting text challengesstudents to explore core concepts in cognitive psychology byfocusing on the ideas behind the research, asking "Why is itimportant?" and "What does it really mean?" Professor Reisberg'sunique approach draws on examples from a wide range of disciplines,including biology, linguistics, political science, economics, andphilosophy, among others, and clearly demonstrates the real-worldimplications of theoretical issues. Carefully revised to be more concise and accessible, the ThirdEdition features strengthened coverage of neuroscience, over 300new citations, and a new Student Web Site.

本书是专门为幼儿园儿童进行数学练习N-K2级别，有些家长困惑于小朋友从小学之前就开始做练习册，会不会产生厌学心理？新加坡数学比中国数学灵活，教辅也是一样。 Mastering Maths N 对应学龄前的孩子 Mastering Maths K1对应幼儿园小班的孩子 Mastering Maths K2 对应幼儿园大班的孩子 (当然也可以根据孩子的年龄和学习情况自行调节，但是总的来说，这套书适合于3-6岁的孩子) 这三本都是一些基础的数学题，适合没有接触过数学的孩子进行理解和学习。在题目的类型上也很多样。N到K1、K2呈现循序渐进的原则，从简单到难。

"The whole thing was basically an experiment," Richard Feynmansaid late in his career, looking back on the origins of hislectures. The experiment turned out to be hugely successful,spawning a book that has remained a definitive introduction tophysics for decades. Ranging from the most basic principles ofNewtonian physics through such formidable theories as generalrelativity and quantum mechanics, Feynman's lectures stand as amonument of clear exposition and deep insight. Now, we arereintroducing the printed books to the trade, fully corrected, forthe first time ever, and in collaboration with Caltech. Timelessand collectible, the lectures are essential reading, not just forstudents of physics but for anyone seeking an introduction to thefield from the inimitable Feynman.

During the past decade there has been an explosion in computation and information technology. With it have come vast amounts of data in a variety of fields such as medicine, biology, finance, and marketing. The challenge of understanding these data has led to the development of new tools in the field of statistics, and spawned new areas such as data mining, machine learning, and bioinformatics. Many of these tools have common underpinnings but are often expressed with different terminology. This book describes the important ideas in these areas in a common conceptual framework. While the approach is statistical, the emphasis is on concepts rather than mathematics. Many examples are given, with a liberal use of color graphics. It is a valuable resource for statisticians and anyone interested in data mining in science or industry. The book's coverage is broad, from supervised learning (prediction) to unsupervised learning. The many topics include neural networks, support vector machines, classification trees a

For nearly a quarter century Molecular Biology of the Cell has been the leading cell biology textbook. This tradition continues with the new Fifth Edition, which has been completely revised and updated to describe our current, rapidly advancing understanding of cell biology. To list but a few examples, a large amount of new material is presented on epigenetics; stem cells; RNAi; comparative genomics; the latest cancer therapies; apoptosis (now its own separate chapter); and cell cycle control and the mechanics of M phase (now integrated into one chapter). The hallmark features of Molecular Biology of the Cell have been retained, such as its consistent and comprehensive art program, clear concept headings, and succinct section summaries. Additionally, in response to extensive feedback from readers, the Fifth Edition now includes several new features. It is now more portable. Chapters 1-20 are printed and Chapters 21-25, covering multicellular systems, are provided as pdf files on the free Media DVD-ROM

Chapter Openers Chapter Openers provide a motivating photo and application toshow students an example of the relevance of what they'll belearning in the chapter. Chapter Overviews A Chapter Overview begins each chapter to give students a senseof what they are going to learn. This overview provides a roadmapof the chapter as well as telling how the different topics in thechapter are connected under one big idea. It is always helpful forstudents to remember that mathematics isn't modular, butinterconnected, and that the different skills they are learningthroughout the course build on one another to help them understandmore complex concepts.
