Harcourt Brace College Publishers

This text offers a conceptual survey of physics in an easily understood presentation. Features: * The flexible organisation allows professors to choose the order in which topics are taught. Seven possible thematic paths are detailed in the Instructor's Manual. * Chapter-opening questions immediately stimulate independent thinking about forthcoming chapter topics. * Excellent illustrations and photos complement text and maintain student interest throughout the course. * In-text questions with answers at the bottom of the page help students think critically about important chapter material. * Physics on Your Own boxes, requiring little or no equipment, illustrate the experimental aspects of physics and the application of physics to our everyday lives. * Special topic boxes expose students to various practical and interesting applications of physical principles. * Biographical sketches give students a valuable historical perspective of physics. * Specially placed "Interludes" prepare students for chapters that follow. New to this edition: * "Computing Boxes" offer students optional opportunities to explore the mathematics often associated with the physics course. * Brilliant new photographs, including some in end-of-chapter pedagogy, complement chapter material and capture student interest. * Updated topics in pedagogical boxes (e.g. the 1996 Olympic Games) include the latest information about physics and illustrate the relevancy of physics in our daily lives. * Updated end-of-chapter questions challenge students to apply important concepts to contemporary situations. * Updated developing areas such as elementary particles and lasers, added new explanations on the global positioning system, reactions caused by collision, increased coverage of the physics of biology and medicine.

The main objective of this book is to provide non-science majors with a clear and logical presentation of some of the basic concepts and principles of classical and modern physics. To create an appropriate language for students, the authors have translated the logic, vocabulary, and values of physics into longer, less tightly structured narration that students can understand. As mathematics holds much of the beauty and power of physics, the authors have written and included a mathematical supplement, Physics: A Numerical World View, packaged free with this text.

NUMER WLD VIEW T/A PHYS:WLD VIEW 3E+

Physics: A World View

Physics: A Numerical World View has been written to develop some of the numerical aspects of your study of physics that can be accessed with simple algebra and geometry. The only course that you need to have taken is the first year algebra course offered in most high schools. This supplement takes you one step further into the mathematics that provides the foundation for the physics world view.

Physics: Numerical World View

The organisational structure of this new text is designed expressly for the supervision course. Macro to micro topical coverage, and the incorporation of concept chapters and skill chapters, provide a framework unique to the supervision principles market. Features: * Macro-to-micro chapter presentation begins with foundations and ends with individual career planning and development issues. * Topics are integrated and cross-referenced throughout the text, recognizing that such coverage shouldn't be compartmentalized. Linkages between supervisory concepts and skills cross chapter boundaries. * In response to an AACSB study on "people skills", this text deals directly with the importance of learning specific people skill. It also covers TQM, diversity, global supervision and reengineering. * Focuses on skills such as decision making, motivating employees, managing conflict, communicating, performance appraisal, applying discipline, counseling, managing stress and organizational change. * Includes extensive coverage of teams, TQM, reengineering and diversity at places in the text where such coverage makes sense. All material is current and extensively referenced. * Extensive references include notes and marginal concepts, a glossary of terms at the end of the text, and 38 cases, two for each chapter. * Supporting materials are geared specifically to lighten the instructor workload involved in teaching supervision. Lecture notes, case materials, behavioral role plays for skill chapters, videos, transparency masters, the Io Enterprises micro-computer simulation, integrated with the text, and a 1500-item test bank provide extensive tools for the professor. * Chapter opening and closing vignettes cover the trials and tribulations of Carla Jones, a first-line supervisor. * Instructor's manual with lecture notes, 1,500 item test bank, student projects and exercises, allows instructors to easily incorporate additional material into lecture notes.
