An Atlantic Crossing? The Work of the International Examination Inquiry, its Researchers, Methods and Influence By Martin Lawn 2008 | 210 Pages | ISBN: 1873927266 | PDF | 5 MB This book focuses on the International Examinations Inquiry (IEI), an international, well-funded scientific project that operated in the 1930s, attracting key world figures in educational research, and which undertook significant exchanges of data.Originally involving the USA, Scotland, England, France, Germany and Switzerland, the IEI grew to include Norway, Sweden and Finland. Funded by Carnegie money, these researchers included major comparative educationalists, New Education Fellowship academics, statisticians and educational psychologists. They met at a significant time in the emergence of international scientific work in educational research between the USA and Europe; they were a midway stage between earlier individual contacts by well-travelled researchers, usually towards North America, and the development of joint research projects, sustained over time.The focus of the IEI was on methods of examining pupils for the coming expansion of secondary education, but their key problems were to do with establishing standardized methods of measurement, international scholarly communication and comparative understandings of national diversity. The IEI researchers acted to support national achievements and strategies within the borders of the nation and internationally, to exchange methods and results. In retrospect, they appear to be visible in their knowledge communities and national education histories but invisible in their internationalism. American Workers, American Unions: The Twentieth Century By Robert H. Zieger 2002 | 312 Pages | ISBN: 080187078X | PDF | 14 MB Highly acclaimed and widely read,American Workers, American Unions(first published in 1986, revised ed. 1994) provides a concise and compelling history of American workers and their unions in twentieth-century America. This new edition features new chapters on the pre-1920 period, as well as an entirely new final chapter that covers developments of the 1980s and 1990s in detail. There the authors explore how economic change, union stagnation, and antilabor policies have combined to erode workers' standards and labor's influence in the political arena over the last two decades. They review current "alternatives to unionism" as means of achieving fair workplace representations but insist that strong unions remain essential in a democratic society. They argue that labor's new responsiveness to the concerns of women, minority groups, and low-wage workers, as well as its resurgent political activism, offer new hope for trade unionism. Also included in this third edition is new bibliographical material and a regularly updated on-line link to an extended bibliographical essay.

A Cool Brisk Walk Through Discrete Mathematics by Stephen Davies English | PDF | 2020 | 235 Pages | ISBN : 171467584X | 4 MB Discrete math is a popular book topic | start Googling around and you'll nd a zillion dierent textbooks about it. Take a closer look, and you'll discover that most of these are pretty thick, dense volumes packed with lots of equations and proofs. They're prin- cipled approaches, written by mathematicians and (seemingly) to mathematicians. I speak with complete frankness when I say I'm comforted to know that the human race is well covered in this area. We need smart people who can derive complex expressions and prove theorems from scratch, and I'm glad we have them. 100 Interesting Case Studies in Neurointervention: Tips and Tricks by Vipul Gupta English | PDF,EPUB | 2019 | 424 Pages | ISBN : 9811313458 | 149.2 MB Neurointervention is a fast-growing subspecialty, and recent trials have demonstrated its role in ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke. This has generated tremendous interest among interventional neuroradiology, neurology and neurosurgery communities. Nevertheless, formal teaching programmes that provide the required experience are limited, and many early career practitioners are not exposed to the crucial technical details essential to safely performing the procedure before they start practising independently.
