An Introduction to the Mathematics of Money

This is an undergraduate textbook on the basic aspects of personal savings and investing with a balanced mix of mathematical rigor and economic intuition. It uses routine financial calculations as the motivation and basis for tools of elementary real analysis rather than taking the latter as given. Proofs using induction, recurrence relations and proofs by contradiction are covered. Inequalities such as the Arithmetic-Geometric Mean Inequality and the Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality are used. Basic topics in probability and statistics are presented. The student is introduced to elements of saving and investing that are of life-long practical use. These include savings and checking accounts, certificates of deposit, student loans, credit cards, mortgages, buying and selling bonds, and buying and selling stocks. The book is self contained and accessible. The authors follow a systematic pattern for each chapter including a variety of examples and exercises ensuring that the student deals with realities, rather than theoretical idealizations. It is suitable for courses in mathematics, investing, banking, financial engineering, and related topics.

Lights! Camera! Sub Action!

In 1976 Mike Seares breathed from an aqualung for the first time. Those few simple breaths were to change his life forever. The sheer fantasy of floating weightless over coral reefs, mysterious shipwrecks and wondrous marine life had to be experienced to be believed. It was the ultimate adventure. And it is an adventure that through exploration and film has taken him to the oceans of the world, revealing sights few are privileged to witness. From filming World War II battleships a hundred and fifty feet down in the South China Sea, to recovering five hundred year old Lucayan Indian skulls deep inside the Blue Holes of the Bahamas. From supervising underwater stunts on the glossy horror flick Leviathan, to reassuring Indiana Jones before another hazardous ordeal. From car chases with Russian scientists in pursuit of an escaped beluga whale, to filming in NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Simulator where astronauts train for complex missions in space. These and other challenges make up LIGHTS! CAMERA! SUB ACTION!

Abstinence Cinema

  • Categories: Art

From the perspective of cultural conservatives, Hollywood movies are cesspools of vice, exposing impressionable viewers to pernicious sexually-permissive messages. Offering a groundbreaking study of Hollywood films produced since 2000, Abstinence Cinema comes to a very different conclusion, finding echoes of the evangelical movement’s abstinence-only rhetoric in everything from Easy A to Taken. Casey Ryan Kelly tracks the surprising sex-negative turn that Hollywood films have taken, associating premarital sex with shame and degradation, while romanticizing traditional nuclear families, courtship rituals, and gender roles. As he demonstrates, these movies are particularly disempowering for ...
