Although today’s mathematical research community takes its international character very much for granted, this ``global nature’’ is relatively recent, having evolved over a period of roughly 150 years--from the beginning of the nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century. During this time, the practice of mathematics changed from being centered on a collection of disparate national communities to being characterized by an international group of scholars for whom the goal of mathematical research and cooperation transcended national boundaries. Yet, the developme

Algebra, as a subdiscipline of mathematics, arguably has a history going back some 4000 years to ancient Mesopotamia. The history, however, of what is recognized today as high school algebra is much shorter, extending back to the sixteenth century, while the history of what practicing mathematicians call "modern algebra" is even shorter still. The present volume provides a glimpse into the complicated and often convoluted history of this latter conception of algebra by juxtaposing twelve episodes in the evolution of modern algebra from the early nineteenth-century work of Charles Babbage on

In a book likely to transform how parents manage many of their child’s daily struggles, Drs. Smith and Gouze explain the central and frequently unrecognized role that sensory processing problems play in a child’s emotional and behavioral difficulties. Practicing child psychologists, and themselves parents of children with sensory integration problems, their message is innovative, practical, and, above all, full of hope. A child with sensory processing problems overreacts or underreacts to sensory experiences most of us take in stride. A busy classroom, new clothes, food smells, spo

Federalism is simultaneously a set of institutions - the division of public authority between two or more constitutionally defined orders of government - and a set of ideas, which underpin shared and divided sovereignty, multiple loyalties and identities, and governance through multi-level institutions. Increasingly the latter are not only central and state governments, but also local and supra-national. Federalism, as defined in this book, is deeply relevant to a wide range of issues facing contemporary societies. Global economic and social developments are forcing a rethinking of the role of
