A Natural History of the Brown Mouse Lemur

A Natural History of the Brown Mouse Lemur

This text can be used for any undergraduate or graduate course with a primate behavior or primate ecology component. It can also be used as supplemental reading for any advanced animal behavior class. There are very few books that address the biology of nocturnal primates. There are even fewer that delve with any detail regarding the behavior of specific species. These animals are difficult to follow. Their diminutive size the thickness of the vegetation and their nocturnal habits make the study of their habits a demanding task. Through a trial of patience Sylvia Atsalis has undertaken this task. Here she provides an in depth view at the life and behavioral patterns of these tiny primates. A Natural History of the Brown Mouse Lemur provides the most complete look at the behavior and ecology of mouse lemurs.

A Pen and Paper Introduction to Statistics

A Pen and Paper Introduction to Statistics

Statistics is central in the biosciences social sciences and other disciplines yet many students often struggle to learn how to perform statistical tests and to understand how and why statistical tests work. Although there are many approaches to teaching statistics a common framework exists between them: starting with probability and distributions then sampling from distribution and descriptive statistics and later introducing both simple and complex statistical tests typically ending with regression analysis (linear models). This book proposes to reverse the way statistics is taught by starting with the introduction of linear models. Today many statisticians know that the one unifying principle of statistical tests is that most of them are instances of linear models. This teaching method has two advantages: all statistical tests in a course can be presented under the same unifying framework simplifying things; second linear models can be expressed as lines over squared paper replacing any equation with a drawing. This book explains how and why statistics works without using a single equation just lines and squares over grid paper. The reader will have the opportunity to work through the examples and compute sums of squares by just drawing and counting and finally evaluating whether observed differences are statistically significant by using the tables provided. Intended for students scientists and those with little prior knowledge of statistics this book is for all with simple and clear examples computations and drawings helping the reader to not only do statistical tests but also understand statistics. | A Pen and Paper Introduction to Statistics

Java Programming for Engineers

Java Programming for Engineers

While teaching Java programming at Minnesota State University the authors noticed that engineering students were enrolling in Java programming courses in order to obtain basic programming skills but there were no Java books suitable for courses intended for engineers. They realized the need for a comprehensive Java programming tutorial that offers basic programming skills that can be applied in the field of engineering. With this in mind the authors developed Java Programming for Engineers in order to meet the needs of both engineers and engineering students. The text uses the personal computer as a development platform and assumes no prior programming experience or knowledge. The only skills expected of the reader are basic keyboarding and user-level familiarity with the PC. Topics covered range from mathematical expressions to linear systems to engineering graphics. Chapters on problem solving skills and the designing of engineering applications walk readers through real word problems they might encounter. Divided into two parts Part 1 is a description of the Java language of the fundamentals of object orientation input and output operations and error handling. Part 2 is about Java programming for engineers. It starts with computer number systems fixed- and variable-precision numeric data mathematical programming in Java as could be of interest to engineers and concludes with an overview of Java Graphics.

Writing can support our wellbeing even under the most difficult life circumstances helping us to adapt to significant change make sense of loss improve our physical and emotional resilience and foster personal growth. Numerous studies of Expressive Writing have confirmed this and there are other established methodologies for practice. However to date few accounts have offered detailed descriptions showing how and why putting pen to paper can be so beneficial. This book delves deeply into the landscape of Writing-for-wellbeing and demonstrates the transformative power of writing in a wide range of contexts. Topics include personal trauma narratives within the Humanities; a participatory Writing-for-wellbeing study that demonstrates the effectiveness of writing in the context of grief and loss; surprise as the hidden mainspring of poetry's therapeutic potency; the empowerment and healing potential offered by Black women’s blogs; playwriting positioning LGBTQIA+ identities as positive through stories of belonging; how writing workshops have helped newly literate Indigenous adults and other participants in the Australian outback; and how the smuggled writings of Behrouz Boochani have enabled global witnessing of the stories of refugees held in offshore detention. This resource sets out the theory and research at the foundation of Writing-for-wellbeing in close relation to full and engaging accounts of practice. It aims to make the topic accessible and affirms its place as an effective reconstructive practice alongside other expressive arts therapies providing a holistic and inspiring resource for anyone wishing to practice teach or research Writing-for-wellbeing. | Writing for Wellbeing Theory Research and Practice
