UCD 115 Instrumental Analysis
UC Davis · LibreTexts
This manual is the culmination of the efforts of many individuals. While some of the experiments are "classics", and appear in various forms in many Quantitative Analysis textbooks and laboratory manuals, much effort was expended to ensure that the experiments work well here at UC Davis and thus each experiment has been extensively tailored for our laboratory program. We view this manual as one of continual modification, and often improvements arise from comments and criticisms.

Shaping a Nation - Women's Roles in US History
Melody Sowden · Coalinga College
History is often taught as a sequence of wars, presidencies, and legislative acts. However, this narrative frequently places women at the edges, as supporting characters or exceptional outliers. This book offers a different vantage point by centering the female experience. It proceeds from the conviction that women were not merely present in American history but were the architects of families, economies, and communities that formed the nation's foundation.
