Introductory Physics for the Life Sciences - Two-Vol. Set

Introductory Physics for the Life Sciences - Two-Vol. Set

This textbook provides an accessible introduction to physics for undergraduate students in the life sciences including those majoring in all branches of biology biochemistry and psychology and students working on pre-professional programs such as pre-medical pre-dental and physical therapy. The text is geared for the algebra-based physics course often named College Physics in the United States. The order of topics studied are such that most of the problems in the text can be solved with the methods of Statics or Dynamics. That is they require a free body diagram the application of Newton’s Laws and any necessary kinematics. Constructing the text with a standardized problem-solving methodology simplifies this aspect of the course and allows students to focus on the application of physics to the study of biological systems. Along the way students apply these techniques to find the tension in a tendon the sedimentation rate of red blood cells in haemoglobin the torques and forces on a bacterium employing a flagellum to propel itself through a viscous fluid and the terminal velocity of a protein moving in a Gel Electrophoresis device. This is part one of a two-volume set; volume 2 introduces students to the conserved-quantities and applies these problem-solving techniques to topics in Thermodynamics Electrical Circuits Optics and Atomic and Nuclear Physics always with continued focus on biological applications. Volume 1 Key features: Organised and centred around analysis techniques not traditional Mechanics and E&M. Presents a unified approach in a different order meaning that the same laboratories equipment and demonstrations can be used when teaching the course. Demonstrates to students that the analysis and concepts they are learning are critical to the understanding of biological systems.

The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms Three Volume Set

The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms Three Volume Set

Ernst Cassirer occupies a unique space in twentieth-century philosophy. A great liberal humanist his multi-faceted work spans the history of philosophy the philosophy of science intellectual history aesthetics epistemology the study of language and myth and more. Cassirer’s thought also anticipates the renewed interest in the origins of analytic and continental philosophy in the Twentieth Century and the divergent paths taken by the 'logicist' and existential traditions epitomised by his now legendary debate in 1929 with the philosopher Martin Heidegger over the question What is the Human Being? The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms is Cassirer's most important work. It was first published in German in 1923 the third and final volume appearing in 1929. In it Cassirer presents a radical new philosophical worldview - at once rich creative and controversial - of human beings as fundamentally symbolic animals placing signs and systems of expression between themselves and the world. This major new translation of all three volumes the first for over fifty years brings Cassirer's magnum opus to a new generation of students and scholars. Taken together the three volumes of The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms are a vital treatise on human beings as symbolic animals and a monumental expression of neo-Kantian thought. Correcting important errors in previous English editions this translation reflects the contributions of significant advances in Cassirer scholarship over the last twenty to thirty years. Each volume includes a new introduction and translator's notes by Steve G. Lofts a foreword by Peter E. Gordon a glossary of key terms and a thorough index. | The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms Three Volume Set

The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood ... When the Exception Confirms the Rule

The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood ... When the Exception Confirms the Rule

This book summarizes the methods and concepts of Statistical Implicative Analysis (SIA) created by Régis Gras in the 1980s to study in a new way the behavioural responses of French pupils to mathematics tests. Using a multidimensional non-symmetrical data analysis method SIA crosses a set of subjects or objects with a set of variables. It effectively complements traditional correlational and psychometric methods. SIA through its various extensions is today presented as a broad Artificial Intelligence method aimed at extracting trends and possible causalities in the form of rules from a set of variables. It is based on the unlikeliness of the existence of these relationships i. e. on the relative weakness of their counter-examples compared to what chance alone would produce. It establishes a dual topological relationship between the set of subjects and the set of variables. Many applications of this approach driving forces or crucibles for the development of SIA have concerned and still concern various fields such as didactics evaluation and assessment psychology sociology medicine biology economics art history and others. Key Features: Presents the foundations and representations of SIA Provides extensions of variable sets and subjects Includes a bonus exercise | The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood .
