This College Algebra text will cover a combination of classical algebra and analytic geometry, with an introduction to the transcendental exponential and logarithmic functions. If mathematics is the language of science, then algebra is the grammar of that language. Like grammar, algebra provides a structure to mathematical notation, in addition to its uses in problem solving and its ability to change the appearance of an expression without changing the value.

Introduction to Strategic Planning for Public and Nonprofit Organizations
Jayme Renfro · University of Northern Iowa
This book is meant to be a practical guide to he major parts of strategic planning in a way that is intended to be clear, useful, and grounded in how organizations actually work. It does not assume that there is a perfect formula for planning or that any plan can remove uncertainty. No organization can predict the future cleanly. The point is not to produce certainty. The point is to help organizations think more clearly, act more intentionally, and adapt with more purpose.

Symmetry
Claire Vallance · University of Oxford
Group Theory is a branch of the mathematical field of algebra. One important application, the theory of symmetry groups, is a powerful tool for the prediction of physical properties of molecules and crystals. It is for example possible to determine whether a molecule can have a dipole moment. Many important predictions of spectroscopic experiments (optical, IR or Raman) can be made purely by group theoretical considerations.

Six Ways of Being Religious
Dale Cannon · Western Oregon University
The book proposes the hypothesis that six generic ways of being religious may be found in any large-scale religious tradition such as Christianity or Buddhism or Islam or Hinduism: sacred rite, right action, devotion, shamanic mediation, mystical quest, and reasoned inquiry. These are recurrent ways in which, socially and individually, devout members of these traditions take up and appropriate their stories and symbols to draw near to, and come into right relationship with, the ultimate reality.
