Book Description
Following up his popular "Introduction to the TI-Nspire," teacher and author Lucas Allen continues his TI-Nspire (TM) Tutorials series with a look at the TI-Nspire CAS. The CAS, or computer algebra system, version of the TI-Nspire is popular at the high school and college level alike for its ability to manipulate not just numbers, but variables. For all the amazing growth that the TI-Nspire platform has shown over the last few years, there still remains a lack of quality resources available for the CAS version of the TI-Nspire. This book is designed to address the needs of students and teachers in search of help with their TI-Nspire CAS.In this second volume of the series, careful attention is given to the CAS specific features of the TI-Nspire CAS. Basic features such as expanding, factoring, and solving simple equations are covered as well as more advanced techniques such as solving complex equations, derivatives, integrals, and differential equations. Any student or teacher working with mathematics from algebra through calculus can benefit from the techniques taught in this book.Everything in the book is up to date with the latest version of the TI-Nspire CAS operating system, version 3.2. If you don't have the latest version of the OS on your TI-Nspire CAS, the book has all of the information you'll need on how to update your calculator for free. Although the button sequences in the tutorials are designed with the TI-Nspire CX CAS and TI-Nspire CAS Touchpad in mind, even the original TI-Nspire Clickpad is capable of everything covered in the book by making slight modifications to the button sequences.Lucas Allen has become an authority on the use of the TI-Nspire CAS since its release, as he was an early adopter of the device for use with the math team he coaches in a public school in downstate Illinois. This past spring, his team captured the 2012 Illinois math team state championship, beating out many of Chicago's elite private schools. In this book, you will learn many of the exact same strategies his team uses on the TI-Nspire CAS.For over 10 years, Allen has taught mathematics at the high school level with students of every imaginable achievement level. He has worked with the TI-Nspire for almost half of that time. He blogs about graphing calculators and other math education technologies at Tech Powered Math.

Book Description
This book is a practical guide to fast-tracking champions. It requires effort and practice, but when accompanied by an understanding of WHY to use psychology, science, great physical practice and social psychology, it is a powerful tool in getting an edge, developing mastery and forming lifelong relationships. In Part I, we talk about how to think like a champion and how to build champions, using a champion star made up of seven aspects and one central core.In Part 2, we examine each aspect of the champion star in turn, as each star point will give a clue to the behaviour, thinking and preparation of champions.In both Part 1 and Part 2, we learn how to add to the individual's growth by understanding the importance of true expertise, the role of expert feedback and the influence of being part of a group or team. Along the way we learn what top sports science experts, psychologists and scientists have to say about how champions think, prepare and play. You'll be asked questions, given activities to exercise your learning, and given YouTube examples that show how the concepts work. Part 3 then provides practical advice and activities to modify, change and then improve behaviour and results. Finally, the Appendix contains evaluation sheets and lesson plans referred to in the book.

Book Description
Through riveting personal stories and the latest research, Harvard evolutionary biologist Carole Hooven shows how testosterone drives the behavior of the sexes apart and how understanding the science behind this hormone is empowering for all. Since antiquity—from the eunuchs in the royal courts of ancient China to the booming market for “elixirs of youth” in nineteenth-century Europe—humans have understood that typically masculine behavior depends on testicles, the main source of testosterone in males. Which sex has the highest rates of physical violence, hunger for status, and desire for a high number of sex partners? Just follow the testosterone. Although we humans can study and reflect on our own behavior, we are also animals, the products of millions of years of evolution. Fascinating research on creatures from chimpanzees to spiny lizards shows how high testosterone helps males out-reproduce their competitors. And men are no exception. While most people agree that sex differences in human behavior exist, they disagree about the reasons. But the science is clear: testosterone is a potent force in human society, driving the bodies and behavior of the sexes apart. But, as Hooven shows in T, it does so in concert with genes and culture to produce a vast variety of male and female behavior. And, crucially, the fact that many sex differences are grounded in biology provides no support for restrictive gender norms or patriarchal values. In understanding testosterone, we better understand ourselves and one another—and how we might build a fairer, safer society.

Book Description
"This book, from British interior designer Nicholas Haslam, is an account of a frenetic and full life - from the 1940s to the present - in Europe and America, in a crowd of friends and acquaintances that includes virtually all of the cultural icons of our time." "Redeeming Features is about much more than documenting a life among the celebrated and the eccentric: it is a vivid, at times humorous and moving portrait of a way of life that has all but disappeared. Haslam has an exacting eye for the telling detail and his story is a compelling and wholly fascinating document of our times." --Book Jacket.
