Fundamentals of Biochemistry I - Structure and Catalysis
Henry Jakubowski and Patricia Flatt · LibreTexts
We explore the structure of the major classes of biomolecules, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. Next, we focus on their binding with other molecules, an emergent property of their structure. We then focus on additional functions of the bound complex, including diffusion and transport, catalysis and regulation. Finally, we integrate structure and function in a capstone chapter on cell signaling.

An Inquiry-Based Approach to Abstract Algebra
Dana Ernst · Northern Arizona University
This free and open-source textbook is designed to used with an inquiry-based learning (IBL) approach to a first-semester undergraduate abstract algebra course. The textbook starts with groups (up to the First Isomorphism Theorem) and finishes with an introduction to rings (up to quotients by maximal and prime ideals). While the textbook covers many of the standard topics, the focus is on building intuition and emphasizes visualization.

Fundamentals of Matrix Algebra
Gregory Hartman · Virginia Military Institute
This text deals with matrix algebra, as opposed to linear algebra. Without arguing semantics, I view matrix algebra as a subset of linear algebra, focused primarily on basic concepts and solution techniques. There is little formal development of theory and abstract concepts are avoided. This is akin to the master carpenter teaching his apprentice how to use a hammer, saw and plane before teaching how to make a cabinet.

Language and Culture in Context
Robert Godwin-Jones · Virginia Commonwealth University
The text introduces some of the key concepts in intercultural communication as traditionally presented in (North American) courses and textbooks, namely the study of differences between cultures, as represented in the works and theories of Edward Hall and Geert Hofstede. Common to these approaches is the prominence of context, leading to a view of human interactions as dynamic and changeable, given the complexity of language and culture, as human agents interact with their environments.
