This introduction to organizational analysis and change is written in a lively, pictorial and concise style. It starts from the belief that one cannot act responsibly without a rounded understanding of both the context and the likely implications of one's actions. The book conveys the essentials of practical systems work in organizational settings and integrates graphics and text throughout.

This text is written for the introductory algebra course offered at both two- and four-year colleges. The focus of this new series by Hutchison and Hoelzle is to make students better problem solvers. To accomplish this goal, the authors emphasize conceptual understanding. They ask students to critically explore and explain concepts in writing and to extend their understanding through group activities. The environmental essays that open each chapter connect algebra to real world problem solving and can be used to stimulate class discussion and promote collaborative learning. "Elementary Algebra" is written in a clear, concise style. The numerous examples are connected by thoughtful transitions that reinforce the student's understanding of the previous example or prepare them for the next one. Every example is followed by a "Check Yourself" exercise that facilitates the student's active involvement in the learning process. Examples frequently contain informal annotations within the solutions to clarify the more difficult algebraic steps. Where appropriate there are examples that indicate how technology can enhance the study of algebra through exploration, visualization and geometric interpretation. They enhance students' conceptual understanding by allowing them to see the connection between algebra and the more intuitive graphic representation. These examples fall at the end of the section discussion and may be omitted if a graphing tool is not being used.

A Doody's Core Title for 2015!
Neuroanatomy:Text and Atlas covers neuroanatomy from both a functional and regional perspective to provide an understanding of how the components of the central nervous system work together to sense the world around us, regulate body systems, and produce behavior. This trusted text thoroughly covers the sensory, motor, and integrative skills of the brains and presents an overview of the function in relation to structure and the locations of the major pathways and neuronal integrative regions.
Neuroanatomy:Text and Atlas also teaches you how to interpret the new wealth of human brain images by developing an understanding of the anatomical localization of brain function. The authoritative core content of myelin-stained histological sections is enhanced by informative line illustrations, angiography, and brain views produced by MRI, and other imaging technologies.

Introduction to Languages and the Theory of Computation is an introduction to the theory of computation that emphasizes formal languages, automata and abstract models of computation, and computability; it also includes an introduction to computational complexity and NP-completeness. Through the study of these topics, students encounter profound computational questions and are introduced to topics that will have an ongoing impact in computer science. Once students have seen some of the many diverse technologies contributing to computer science, they can also begin to appreciate the field as a coherent discipline. A distinctive feature of this text is its gentle and gradual introduction of the necessary mathematical tools in the context in which they are used. Martin takes advantage of the clarity and precision of mathematical language but also provides discussion and examples that make the language intelligible to those just learning to read and speak it. The material is designed to be accessible to students who do not have a strong background in discrete mathematics, but it is also appropriate for students who have had some exposure to discrete math but whose skills in this area need to be consolidated and sharpened.

Introduction to Languages and the Theory of Computation helps students make the connection between the practice of computing and an understanding of the profound ideas that defines it. The book's organization and the author's ability to explain complex topics clearly make this introduction to the theory of computation an excellent resource for a broad range of upper level students. The author has learned through many years of teaching that the best way to present theoretical concepts is to take advantage of the precision and clarity of mathematical language. In a way that is accessible to students still learning this language, he presents the necessary mathematical tools gently and gradually which provides discussion and examples that make the language intelligible.
