This is a mathematician's toolkit for cutting through wall-to-wall informationoverload and making sense of our modern world.

"Discusses Bic Runga's Drive as the foundation for launching her career as an icon of New Zealand popular music"--

Roger Murray (1911-1998) was a crucial figure in the history of value investing. This book offers a compelling account of Murray's multifaceted career alongside a series of remarkable lectures he gave late in his life that encapsulated his philosophy of investing.

Light-matter interaction is pervasive throughout the disciplines of optical and atomic physics, condensed matter physics, electrical engineering, and now increasingly in biology and medicine with frequency and length scales extending over many orders of magnitude. Deep earth and sea communications use frequencies of a few tens of Hz, and X-ray imaging requires sources oscillating at hundreds of petaHz. This book provides advanced undergraduates, graduate students and researchers from diverse disciplines with the principal tools required to understand and contribute to rapidly advancing developments in light-matter interaction, centred at optical frequencies and length scales from a few hundred nanometres to a few hundredths of a nanometre. This book deploys an arsenal of powerful analytic tools to render this multidisciplinary subject in unique form, not encountered in standard Physics or Electrical Engineering text books. This new edition has been substantially expanded with almost 200 pages of new material. Several new and extended chapters treat momentum flow between fields and matter, metamaterials, and atom-optical forces applied to atomic and molecular cooling and trapping.

Developed in collaboration with the International Baccalaureate Organization, Oxford's Course Companions provide extra support for students taking IB Diploma Programme courses. They present a whole-course approach with a wide range of resources, and encourage a deep understanding of each subject by making connections to wider issues and providing opportunites for critical thinking.With features and activities that encourage active learning and critical thinking, this book will improve skills across a range of areas. This Course Companion places the subject in a broader context, with features about famous figures in business and management, as well as a strong emphasis on Theory of Knowledge. International case studies are used to enhance the syllabus content and bring the real world consequences of business to light. Group and individual activities and a bank of examination-style questions are also included.
