Providing a concise introduction to abstract algebra, this work unfolds some of the fundamental systems with the aim of reaching applicable, significant results.

Perfected over three editions and more than forty years, this field- and classroom-tested reference:
* Uses the method of maximum likelihood to a large extent to ensure reasonable, and in some cases optimal procedures.
* Treats all the basic and important topics in multivariate statistics.
* Adds two new chapters, along with a number of new sections.
* Provides the most methodical, up-to-date information on MV statistics available.

CALCULUS provides you with the strongest foundation for a STEM future. James Stewart�s Calculus series is the top-seller in the world because of its problem-solving focus, mathematical precision and accuracy, and outstanding examples and problem sets. Selected and mentored by Stewart, Daniel Clegg and Saleem Watson continue his legacy and their careful refinements retain Stewart�s clarity of exposition and make the 9th Edition an even more usable learning tool. The accompanying WebAssign includes helpful learning support and new resources like Explore It interactive learning modules. Showing that Calculus is both practical and beautiful, the Stewart approach and WebAssign resources enhance understanding and build confidence for millions of students worldwide.

This is the second book of a three-volume work called "Calculus" by Jerrold Marsden and Alan Weinstein. This book is the outgrowth of the authors' experience teaching calculus at Berkeley. It covers techniques and applications of integration, infinite series, and differential equations.

This bestselling professional reference has helped over 100,000 engineers and scientists with the success of their experiments. The new edition includes more software examples taken from the three most dominant programs in the field: Minitab, JMP, and SAS. Additional material has also been added in several chapters, including new developments in robust design and factorial designs. New examples and exercises are also presented to illustrate the use of designed experiments in service and transactional organizations. Engineers will be able to apply this information to improve the quality and efficiency of working systems.

"A strength of this book is its appropriateness in a wide variety of instructional settings. In particular, it allows instructors flexibility in the selection of and the ordering of topics and in the use of technology. The essential core material is Chapter 1, Sections 2.1 through 2.5, and Sections 3.1 through 3.5. After completing these sections, the selection of additional topics, and the order and depth of coverage are generally at the discretion of the instructor. Chapters 4 through 11 are essentially independent of each other, except that Chapter 7 should precede Chapter 9, and Chapter 10 should precede Chapter 11"--

ELEMENTS OF MODERN ALGEBRA, Eighth Edition, with its user-friendly format, provides you with the tools you need to succeed in abstract algebra and develop mathematical maturity as a bridge to higher-level mathematics courses. Strategy boxes give you guidance and explanations about techniques and enable you to become more proficient at constructing proofs. A summary of key words and phrases at the end of each chapter help you master the material. A reference section, symbolic marginal notes, an appendix, and numerous examples help you develop your problem-solving skills.

Comprehensive in coverage, this book explores the principles of logic, the axioms for the real numbers, limits of sequences, limits of functions, differentiation and integration, infinite series, convergence, and uniform convergence for sequences of real-valued functions. Concepts are presented slowly and include the details of calculations as well as substantial explanations as to how and why one proceeds in the given manner. Uses the words WHY? and HOW? throughout; inviting readers to become active participants and to supply a missing argument or a simple calculation. Contains more than 1000 individual exercises. Stresses and reviews elementary algebra and symbol manipulation as essential tools for success at the kind of computations required in dealing with limiting processes.

Comprehensive coverage of mathematical statistics -- with a proven approach

Introduction to Mathematical Statistics by Hogg, McKean, and Craig enhances student comprehension and retention with numerous, illustrative examples and exercises. Classical statistical inference procedures in estimation and testing are explored extensively, and the text's flexible organization makes it ideal for a range of mathematical statistics courses.

Substantial changes to the 8th Edition -- many based on user feedback -- help students appreciate the connection between statistical theory and statistical practice, while other changes enhance the development and discussion of the statistical theory presented.
