Economics
Welcome to the seventeenth edition of Economics and the companion editions, Macroeconomics and Microeconomics , the best-selling economics textbook in the world. An estimated 13 million students worldwide have now used this book. Economics has been adapted into Australian and Canadian editions and translated into Italian, Russian, Chinese, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and other languages. We are pleased that Economics continues to meet the market test: nearly one out of four U.S. students in principles courses used the sixteenth edition.

Mathematical challenges for able pupils
You will probably teach able pupils in their own class for their daily mathematics lesson. They will cover the same topics as their peers but at a level to match their abilities. You can stretch them through differentiated group work, harder problems for homework and extra challenges – including investigations using ICT – which they can do towards the end of a unit of work when other pupils are doing consolidation exercises. The planning and structure of the National Numeracy Strategy address the needs of all pupils and help you to manage classes with wide-ranging attainment groups. Each pupil, very able or less able, needs to be part of one of these groups for at least some of the time and not restricted totally to individual working.

Math for Real Life
Many people react much as the mother on the television show The Middle did when her son got a D on a math paper: “Math is very important in life. you use math in everything… . oh even I can’t say it like i believe it.” What are students thinking when they say, “Where are we ever going to use this?” yes, it could be a cynical ploy and not really a legitimate question. Maybe it’s an attempt to divert the teacher’s attention away from the math at hand. Maybe it’s just a chance to stir things up so it gets a little interesting.

Mathematics 6
The Mathematics curriculum guides for Newfoundland and Labrador have been derived from The Common Curriculum Framework for K-9 Mathematics: Western and Northern Canadian Protocol, 2006. These guides incorporate the conceptual framework for Grades Kindergarten to Grade 9 Mathematics and the general outcomes, specific outcomes and achievement indicators established in the common curriculum framework. They also include suggestions for teaching and learning, suggested assessment strategies, and an identification of the associated resource match between the curriculum and authorized, as well as recommended, resource materials.

Самураи державы Ямато
Пользующееся в настоящее время широчайшей известностью японское слово "самурай", вошедшее в период с конца XIX до середины ХХ века во многие иностранные языки, стало символом и синонимом отважного, бескомпромиссного воина, сражающегося за идею и ставящего свою честь выше собственной жизни. Своим происхождением самураи обязаны клановым военным отрядам, сражавшимся в раннюю эпоху Японской империи с "варварскими" племенами, издавна населявшими пограничные районы Страны восходящего солнца. В X-XII веках, в период междоусобных войн между различными японскими феодальными родами (кланами или военными домами), могущество самураев все более возрастало. К середине XII века одному из военных предводителей самураев - прославленному полководцу Киёмори Тайра - впервые удалось захватить власть в Стране восходящего солнца. С тех пор почти на семь столетий в Японии утвердился режим, при котором политическая власть сосредоточилась в руках самурайской военной аристократии. Влияние самурайского военного сословия, его образа мыслей, религиозных убеждений, привычек, культуры на жизнь всего японского общества стало подавляющим, несмотря на то, что в ходе буржуазной "революции" ("реставрации") Мэйдзи самурайское сословие, как и все другие сословия средневековой Японии, было упразднено. Ощущается оно в полной мере и по сей день. И можно сказать, что весь японский народ превратился в "нацию самураев". Об основных этапах этого процесса и рассказывается в настоящей книге.

Architecture in Japan
Algo menor que el estado de California, Japón posee una población mucho mayor estimada en 127.417.244 habitantes según datos de julio de 2005. En la última década, el censo se ha incrementado en unos dos millones de personas aunque, en general, la sociedad japonesa está envejeciendo. De hecho en la ciudad mo- derna más grande del mundo, Tokio, que ocupa solo un 0,6% de la superficie total de Japón, viven un 10% de los japoneses, lo que supone una densidad nada des- preciable de 5.655 personas por kilómetro cuadrado. Buena parte del litoral oriental del país, entre Tokio y Osaka, es prácticamente un área urbana continua, mientras que el oeste es más montañoso y está menos poblado. Estos datos y, en especial, la densidad urbana del país, son importantes para comprender su arquitectura, sobre todo con relación a la construcción residencial. Otro factor decisivo para la arqui-

Basic fluid mechanics and hydraulic machines
Fluid mechanics is concerned with the behaviour of liquids and gases at rest and in motion. The proper understanding of mechanics of fluids is important in many branches of engineering: in biomechanics the flow of blood is of interest; ocean currents require a knowledge of fluid mechanics; chemical processing of plants require a thorough knowledge of fluid mechanics; aeronautical engineers require knowledge of flow of air over the aircraft to reduce drag and increase lift; mechanical engineers require knowledge of fluid properties to design pumps, water turbines, gas turbines and rockets; civil engineers require fluid mechanics to study river currents and erosion; and environmentalists require knowledge of fluid properties for solving pollution problems of air and water to control flood, irrigation channels, etc.
