Book Description
The American Mathematics Competition (AMC) series is a group of contests that judge students’ mathematical abilities in the form of a timed test. The AMC 8 is the introductory level competition in this series and is taken by tens of thousands of students every year in grades 8 and below. Students are given 40 minutes to complete the 25 question test. Every right answer receives 1 point and there is no penalty for wrong or missing answers, so the maximum possible score is 25/25. While all AMC 8 problems can be solved without any knowledge of trigonometry, calculus, or more advanced high school mathematics, they can be tantalizingly difficult to attempt without much prior experience and can take many years to master because problems often have complex wording and test the knowledge of mathematical concepts that are not covered in the school curriculum. This book is meant to teach the skills necessary to solve mostly any problem on the AMC 8. However, our goal is to not only teach you how to perfect the AMC 8, but we also want you to learn and understand the topics presented as if you were in a classroom setting. Above all, the first and foremost goal is for you to have a good time learning math! The units that will be covered in this book are the following: - Test Taking Strategies for the AMC 8 - Number Sense in the AMC 8 - Number Theory in the AMC 8 - Algebra in the AMC 8 - Counting and Probability in the AMC 8 - Geometry in the AMC 8 - Advanced Competition Tricks for the AMC 8

Book Description
This book is mostly for high school students who are interested in math competitions. Such competitions are not easy. You have most likely learned many concepts, formulas, theorems, and general information about several different areas of math during your middle school and high school years, but you may not know how to apply all that knowledge to solve the difficult and daunting problems in competitions. This book helps bridge the gap between math classes and math competitions. In addition, it will help you build intuition and develop strong problem-solving skills beyond reciting formulas or doing calculations. Such skills make it much easier to simplify and solve math problems, and are immensely valuable in your future study of any fields and careers that you may pursue as well. It is important to note, however, that this book does not teach you algebra, number theory, counting, probability, or geometry. We review essential knowledge about such topics, but it is assumed that you already have a solid grasp of them.

Book Description
Nader Shah, ruler of Persia from 1736 to 1747, embodied ruthless ambition, energy, military brilliance, cynicism and cruelty. His reign was filled with bloodshed, betrayal and horror. Yet, Nader Shah is central to Iran's early modern history. From a shepherd boy, he rose to liberate his country from foreign occupation, and make himself Shah. He took eighteenth century Iran in a trajectory from political collapse and partition to become the dominant power in the region, briefly opening the prospect of a modernising state that could have resisted colonial intervention in Asia. He recovered all the territory lost by his predecessors, including Herat and Kandahar, and went on to conquer Moghul Delhi, plundering the enormous treasures of India. Nader commanded the most powerful military force in Asia, if not the world. He repeatedly defeated the armies of Ottoman Turkey, the preeminent State of Islam, overran most of what is now Iraq and threatened to take Baghdad on several occasions. But from the zenith of his success he declined into illness, insane avarice and horrific savagery, committing terrible atrocities against the Persian people, his friends, and even his family, until he finally died as violently as he had lived. The "Sword of Persia" recreates the story of a remarkable, ruthless man, capable of both charm and brutality. It is a rich narrative, full of dramatic incident, including much new research into original Iranian and other material, which will prove indispensable to historians and students. The book includes many contemporary illustrations, and maps.
