Inferential Statistics and Probability - A Holistic Approach
Maurice A. Geraghty · De Anza College
Holistic or Eastern tradition analysis is less concerned with the component parts of a problem, mechanism or phenomenon but rather with how this system operates as a whole, including its surrounding environment. I believe it is possible to teach the concept of Inferential Statistics holistically. This course material is a result of that inspiration, and it was designed to supplement, not replace, a traditional course textbook or workbook.

MA148: Calculus with Applications
Benjamin Bunck · Butler Community College
MA148 - Calculus with Applications. This course will enable the student to differentiate and integrate algebraic, logarithmic and exponential functions and apply those concepts to real-world business and social-science applications, including marginal analysis. This content is a remix of the Applied Calculus text by Calaway, Hoffman, and Lippman. The primary change to the LibreText edition has been to separate the "chapter" exercise sets into smaller exercise sets for each individual section.

Introduction to Earth and Space Sciences
Robert Wagner · HACC
Introduction to Earth and Space Sciences explores Earth as a planet and its place in the larger universe. Beginning with astronomy, we investigate our solar system, stars, galaxies, and the universe. We then examine Earth’s atmosphere and the processes that produce weather and climate before turning to the solid Earth, its materials, geological history, and changing landscapes. Together, these topics reveal the interconnected processes that shape our planet and our understanding of the cosmos.

Organometallic Chemistry
Michael Evans · Georgia Tech
Organometallic (OM) chemistry is the study of compounds containing, and reactions involving, metal-carbon bonds. The metal-carbon bond may be transient or temporary, but if one exists during a reaction or in a compound of interest, we’re squarely in the domain of organometallic chemistry. Despite the denotational importance of the M-C bond, bonds between metals and the other common elements of organic chemistry also appear in OM chemistry: metal-nitrogen, metal-oxygen, metal-ha
