<p>"Sync" is a story of a dazzling kind of order in the universe, the harmony that comes from cycles in sync. The tendency to synchronize is one of the most far-reaching drives in all of nature. It extends from people to planets, from animals to atoms. In "Sync" professor Steven Strogatz considers a range of applications - human sleep and circadian rhythms, menstrual synchrony, insect outbreaks, superconductors, Lasers, secret codes, heart arrhythmias and fads - connecting all through an exploration of the same mathematical theme: self-organization, or the spontaneous emergence of order out of chaos. Focused enough to present a coherent world unto themselves, Strogatz's chosen topics touch on several of the hottest directions in contemporary science.</p>

Interactive Differential Equations (IDE) is specifically and pedagogically designed for students taking a differential equations course. It is remarkably easy to use and focuses on helping students visualize the mathematics. It is a CD-ROM containing more than 90 interactive differential equations tools and a workbook with labs and exercises to be used with the tools. It covers the entire, second-order differential differential equations course: first-order differential equations equations, linear and nonlinear applications, Laplace Transforms, series solutions, and boundary value problems. Applications are drawn from engineering, physics, chemistry, and biology.
