An IBL Introduction to Geometries
Mark A. Fitch · University of Alaska Anchorage
This text was designed for an IBL approach to Introduction to Geometries and covers geometry topics required for secondary teacher certification. As a result it covers synthetic, transformational, and a tiny bit of analytic approaches to geometry and covers both Euclidean (parabolic), hyperbolic, and some projective geometry. Students are expected to have completed a proofs course covering proof techniques, basic set operations, and cardinality as a prerequisite.

Applied Finite Mathematics
Rupinder Sekhon and Roberta Bloom · De Anza College
This text covers topics including linear equations, matrices, linear programming, the mathematics of finance, sets and counting, probability, Markov chains, and game theory. Finite Math covers a variety of topics united by their focus on mathematical techniques used in business applications. The growing field of “business analytics” encompasses many types of applications; the text gives insight to some methods used in industry, although we will explore them on a smaller scale.

Physical Chemistry for the Biosciences
LibreTexts Textmap
This textbook offers a thorough introduction to physical chemistry, covering foundational concepts, gas behavior, and detailed thermodynamics. It explores solutions, equilibrium, electrochemistry, acids and bases, and kinetics, including enzymes. Quantum mechanics leads to bonding theories, followed by intermolecular forces, spectroscopy, and photochemistry and ends with macromolecules, bridging theory with biological and real-world applications.

Mineralogy
Dexter Perkins et al. · University of North Dakota
Minerals are our planet. They form the Earth and the bedrock that we live on, making up all of Earth’s rocks and sediments, and they are important components in soils. So, they literally are the foundations for our lives. Perhaps because they are ubiquitous, most people don’t even notice them or consider that all rock is made of minerals.

Socialism, Capitalism and Alternatives
Peter J. S. Duncan and Elisabeth Schimpfössl · UCL Press
The collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union discredited the idea of socialism for generations to come. It was seen as representing the final and irreversible victory of capitalism. This triumphal dominance was barely challenged until the 2008 financial crisis threw the Western world into a state of turmoil.

Biophysical Chemistry
Serge L. Smirnov and James McCarty · Western Washington University
We wrote this text to serve as the primary source for a series of Biophysical Chemistry courses that we regularly teach as faculty members of the Chemistry Department at Western Washington University, which serve the needs of undergraduate Biochemistry program. The present text is based on the assumption of what WWU Biochemistry majors know and do not know at the time they enter their final year of study toward Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry.

Introductory Physics: Building Models to Describe Our World
Ryan D. Martin, Emma Neary, Joshua Rinaldo, and Olivia Woodman · Queen's University
This is an open-access textbook for calculus-based introductory physics courses. The textbook is specifically intended for a flipped-classroom approach, wherein students complete readings at home and the material is then discussed in class. The textbook thus contains questions and activities to engage readers. This text also includes a curriculum in experimental physics, detailing the scientific method and process, suggesting experiments to perform at home and in the lab.
