Numerical Solution of Ordinary Differential Equations
A concise introduction to numerical methodsand the mathematicalframework neededto understand their performance Numerical Solution of Ordinary Differential Equationspresents a complete and easy-to-follow introduction to classicaltopics in the numerical solution of ordinary differentialequations. The book's approach not only explains the presentedmathematics, but also helps readers understand how these numericalmethods are used to solve real-world problems. Unifying perspectives are provided throughout the text, bringingtogether and categorizing different types of problems in order tohelp readers comprehend the applications of ordinary differentialequations. In addition, the authors' collectiv...
Hungry for His Presence
"They shall know that I am the Lord their God who brought them out of the land of Egypt, that I might dwell among them; I am the LORD their God" (Excodus 29:46). The promise God made long ago to His people is still relevant and attainable today. God longs to personally inhabits His chosen ones and show Himself strong among His people. Yet, today-- as it often has been in the past--God's people long more for provisions that gratify immediate needs than they do for the supernatural, abiding presence of God. In response, Christian leaders--like Moses--occasionally capitulate to the pressures of leadership; and, in doing so, sometimes offer little more than professionally-produced programs and finely tuned services that appeal to the flesh but do little to heal the wounds of spiritually broken people. In the end, pastors face growing frustration and the people increasing
Exploring the Philosophy of Religion
Exploring the Philosophy of Religion, 7th Edition, combines the best features of a text and a reader by offering clear analysis coupled with important primary-source readings. Professor David Stewart called upon his 30-plus years of teaching experience to introduce students to the important study of philosophical issues raised by religion. Beginning students often find primary sources alone too difficult so this text offers primary source materials by a variety of significant philosophers including a balanced blend of classical and contemporary authors but the materials are supported by clearly written introductions, which better prepare students to understand the readings.
Building Proofs: A Practical Guide
This book introduces students to the art and craft of writing proofs, beginning with the basics of writing proofs and logic, and continuing on with more in-depth issues and examples of creating proofs in different parts of mathematics, as well as introducing proofs-of-correctness for algorithms. The creation of proofs is covered for theorems in both discrete and continuous mathematics, and in difficulty ranging from elementary to beginning graduate level.Just beyond the standard introductory courses on calculus, theorems and proofs become central to mathematics. Students often find this emphasis difficult and new. This book is a guide to understanding and creating proofs. It explains the standard “moves” in mathematical proofs: direct computation, expanding definitions, proof by contradiction, proof by induction, as well as choosing notation and strategies.
Writing Scientific Software
The core of scientific computing is designing, writing, testing, debugging and modifying numerical software for application to a vast range of areas: from graphics, meteorology and chemistry to engineering, biology and finance. Scientists, engineers and computer scientists need to write good code, for speed, clarity, flexibility and ease of re-use. Oliveira and Stewart's style guide for numerical software points out good practices to follow, and pitfalls to avoid. By following their advice, readers will learn how to write efficient software, and how to test it for bugs, accuracy and performance. Techniques are explained with a variety of programming languages, and illustrated with two extensive design examples, one in Fortran 90 and one in C++: other examples in C, C++, Fortran 90 and Java are scattered throughout the book. This manual of scientific computing style will be an essential addition to the bookshelf and lab of everyone who writes numerical software.
George Washington
A fascinating and illuminating account of how George Washington became the dominant force in the creation of the United States of America, from award-winning author David O. Stewart “An outstanding biography . . . [George Washington] has a narrative drive such a life deserves.”—The Wall Street Journal Washington's rise constitutes one of the greatest self-reinventions in history. In his mid-twenties, this third son of a modest Virginia planter had ruined his own military career thanks to an outrageous ego. But by his mid-forties, that headstrong, unwise young man had evolved into an unassailable leader chosen as the commander in chief of the fledgling Continental Army. By his mid-fifti...
Quasi-Democracy?
Based primarily on mail surveys of voters, political scientists Stewart (U. of Alberta) and Archer (U. of Calgary) took the opportunity of the 1992 Progressive Conservative, the 1994 NDP, and the 1994 Liberal leadership elections to observe the internal workings of Canadian political parties and the people who stand between the politicians and the electorate. Their study comes in the midst of intense criticism of the delegate conventions that most parties had used to choose leaders, and the shift to a form of universal balloting that allows all party members to vote directly for their leader.

Case Studies in Mental Health Treatment
The key aims of this text are to illustrate the use of various types of mental health treatments and to provide in-depth examples of common psychological disorders supported by case studies. The 34 journal articles in this book— authored by practicing psychotherapists, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, and counselors— describe the treatment of individual clients. In most cases, the authors discuss a client's psychological problem , the treatment used w ith the client, and the outcome. This book is designed for use in courses in clinical, counseling, and abnormal psychology, each article is followed by (1) a list of psychological term s for classroom discussion and (2) questions that call for students' opinions on various aspects of die case.
Agriculture Decisions
Up to 1988, the December issue contains a cumulative list of decisions reported for the year, by act, docket numbers arranged in consecutive order, and cumulative subject-index, by act.
Impeached
