Formal Models of Domestic Politics offers a unified and accessible approach to canonical and important new models of politics. Intended for political science and economics students who have already taken a course in game theory, this new edition retains the widely appreciated pedagogic approach of the first edition. Coverage has been expanded to include a new chapter on nondemocracy; new material on valance and issue ownership, dynamic veto and legislative bargaining, delegation to leaders by imperfectly informed politicians, and voter competence; and numerous additional exercises. Political economists, comparativists, and Americanists will all find models in the text central to their research interests. This leading graduate textbook assumes no mathematical knowledge beyond basic calculus, with an emphasis placed on clarity of presentation. Political scientists will appreciate the simplification of economic environments to focus on the political logic of models; economists will discov
Considered to be the hardest mathematical problems to solve, word problems continue to terrify students across all math disciplines. This new title in the World Problems series demystifies these diffi
Principles of Physics: A Calculus Approach is designed for a one-year introductory calculus-based physics course for engineering and science students as well as premed students. This book has two main objectives: to provide students with a clear and logical presentation of the basic concepts and principles of physics; and to strengthen their understanding of these concepts and principles through a board of interesting real-world applications.● Style The book is written in a clear, logical, and engaging style.● Pitfall Prevention Over 140 Pitfall Preventions are provided to help students avoid common mistakes and misunderstandings.● Problem-Solving Strategies This helps students identify necessary steps for solving problems.● Worked Examples These examples are set off in boxes, and the answers are highlighted with a tan screen.● Problems Over 2,100 end-of-chapter problems are provided with varied levels of difficulty.● Review Problems These problems can be used by students in preparing

Spivak's celebrated textbook is widely held as one of the finest introductions to mathematical analysis. His aim is to present calculus as the first real encounter with mathematics: it is the place to learn how logical reasoning combined with fundamental concepts can be developed into a rigorous mathematical theory rather than a bunch of tools and techniques learned by rote. Since analysis is a subject students traditionally find difficult to grasp, Spivak provides leisurely explanations, a profusion of examples, a wide range of exercises and plenty of illustrations in an easy-going approach that enlightens difficult concepts and rewards effort. Calculus will continue to be regarded as a modern classic, ideal for honours students and mathematics majors, who seek an alternative to doorstop textbooks on calculus, and the more formidable introductions to real analysis.
