Softcover. Condition: Good. 3. There has been nothing ordinary about the history of the State of Nevada. Throughout its existence Nevada has been home to unconventional lifestyles that were often at odds with mainstream America. -IntroductionA place of stark contrasts between city and wilderness, Nevada became a state in 1864 amid a storm of controversy and national strife. Its subsequent acceptance of prostitution, easy divorce, and gambling-all recognized by state statute-produced widespread moral condemnation. Its harsh climate, low population, and early discoveries of vast reserves of silver further added to the states historic contradictions. Finally, its traditions of slow demographic and economic growth were dramatically reversed in the latter 20th century with the explosion of the gambling industry.The works in this third edition of Of Sagebrush & Slot Machines span this century and a half of Nevadas history. University of Nevada, Reno historians Richard Davies and Scott Casper have once again captured the unique flavor of the Nevada experience in this meatier, more modern collection of 18 excerpts from works by writers famous and obscure on the subject of the Silver State. Intercultural conflict, rural childhood, environmental explorations, and political and social controversies are probed in these pages, taking the reader beyond the neon glow most Americans picture when they think of Nevada and into a land of hidden cultural richness and complexity.

Softcover. Condition: Good. 5. Adapted from Henslins best-selling comprehensive text, Core Concepts provides in-depth coverage of ten high-priority topics that are the foundation of many introductory sociology courses.This unique paperback offers a concise and economical format without sacrificing depth of coverage. Unlike a brief or essentials text, the ten chapters that make up Core Concepts are not edited down from a longer book. Instead, they provide full coverage of those topics that instructors emphasize the most in a one-semester or one-term introductory sociology course. Like Henslins other texts, it features the author's familiar down-to-earth approach and personal writing style that highlight the sociology of everyday life. With wit, personal reflection, and illuminating examples, Henslin shares with readers a passion for sociology unmatched by any other introductory text.

Softcover. Condition: Good. 2. From the ForewordExploring Communication Disorders is an innovative text. It is an incredibly thorough work that provides countless examples that stretch your imagination, warm your heart, and stir your fears. It is comprehensive, easy-to-read, well organized, and immensely appropriate for a college-level text. To that end it is also ideally designed to support a liberal studies course that examines how communication disorders are treated in literature and media. It also provides an inviting way to tell students about the discipline of communication sciences and disorders in an entertaining and engaging manner. Professionals in speech-language pathology and audiology touch the lives of children and adults in very special ways. Students also learn about these professionals, gain a deeper understanding of human communication, and may someday as a result find their way to a career in speech-language pathology or audiology.Wayne A. Secord, Ph.D.University of Cincinnati.

Softcover. Condition: Good. 4. Intended as a bridge from high school Algebra II and trigonometry to college calculus,Warren Estys Precalculus fills the need for a text that delves deeper into the power of algebra and algebraic notation than the usual texts that emphasize calculation skills. The text includes the usual precalculus material, such as functions, powers, polynomials, logarithms, exponentials, and trigonometry, while placing special emphasis on learning how to read and use mathematical symbolism.As it is not designed for a terminal course, Precalculus offers students the tools they need to retain what they learn. For example, in addition to the usual calculation problems for practice, the text has problems that ask for an illustration, explanation, or a statement in mathematical notation, rather than just a computation; in fact, some problems ask for the plan and not the answer.Typically, students do well with algebra if the context is simple and the computation is with numbers; however, they have a harder time at the deeper level required to do word problems and calculus, which ask students to write about operations applied to letters (variables). Thus, texts that duplicate the calculation-oriented algebra of high school without stressing algebraic symbolism-with letters as they appear every day in calculus-fall short in preparing students for higher math. Precalculus does not.
