Problems and Solutions from The Mathematical Visitor, 1877-1896
This book contains all 344 problems that were originally published in the 19th century journal, The Mathematical Visitor, classified by subject. Little-known to most mathematicians today, these problems represent lost treasure from mathematical antiquity. All solutions that were originally published in the journal are also included.
The Oxford Handbook of Jewishness and Dance
Responding to recent evolutions in the fields of dance and religious and secular studies, The Oxford Handbook of Jewishness and Dance documents and celebrates the significant impact of Jewish identity on a variety of communities and the dance world writ large. Focusing on North America, Europe, and Israel in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, this Handbook highlights the sometimes surprising, often hidden and overlooked Jewish resonances within a range of styles from modern and postmodern dance to folk dance and flamenco. Privileging the historically marginalized voices of scholars, performers, and instructors the Handbook considers the powerful role of dance in addressing difference, such as between American and Israeli Jewish communities. In the process, contributors advocate values of social justice, like Tikkun Olam (repair of the world), debate, and humor, exploring the fascinating and potentially uncomfortable contradictions and ambiguities that characterize this robust area of research.
Index to Mathematical Problems, 1980-1984
A compendium of over 5,000 problems with subject, keyword, author and citation indexes.
Akim Volynsky
In Akim Volynsky: A Hidden Russian-Jewish Prophet Helen Tolstoy offers a new view of controversial Silver Age critic Akim Volynsky by presenting him as an influential theater figure and, in his later years, as a Russian-Jewish thinker.
In Polya's Footsteps
Ross Honsberger was born in Toronto, Canada, in 1929 and attended the University of Toronto. After more than a decade of teaching mathe matics in Toronto, he took advantage of a sabbatical leave to continue his studies at the University of Waterloo, Canada. He joined its faculty in 1964 in the Department of Combina torics and Optimization, and has been there ever since. Honsberger has published a number of bestselling books with the Mathematical Association of America, including Episodes in Nineteenth and Twentieth Century Euclidean Geometry, and From Erdos to Kiev. In Polya's Footsteps is his eighth book published in the Dolciani Mathematical Exposition Series. The study of mathematics is o...
Applications of Fibonacci Numbers
This book contains 43 papers form among the 55 papers presented at the Sixth International Conference on Fibonacci Numbers and Their Applications which was held at Washington State University, Pullman, Washington, from July 18-22, 1994. These papers have been selected after a careful review by well known referees in the field, and they range from elementary number theory to probability and statistics. The Fibonacci numbers and recurrence relations are their unifying bond. It is anticipated that this book, like its five predecessors, will be useful to research workers and graduate students interested in the Fibonacci numbers and their applications.

The Assembly
Pp. 49-54 and 59-60 deal with the attitude of Ulysses S. Grant to the Jews. At the time of the Civil War, public opinion on both sides of the front contended that Jews were trading through the lines, i.e. with the enemy. On 17 December 1862, General Grant ordered the expulsion of the Jews from the southern military zone. The order evoked protests and complaints to Lincoln, and was revoked. When he became president in 1869, Grant felt guilty about his attitude to the Jews and appointed several Jews to public office. Pp. 393-403 deal with the Holocaust period, the reaction of the congregation to it, and the fate of some members who became victims of the Holocaust, such as Rebecca Gotthelf (who was born in Washington and died in Theresienstadt), or who managed to leave the Reich in the last moment and settled in Washington.
