What you see isn't always what you get in this funny and heart-wrenching story about two girls from different crowds who find common ground, by National Book Award finalist Julie Anne Peters. Antonia is a "nerd," and Jazz is a "punk." Antonia belongs to the math club; Jazz hangs out at the tattoo parlor. Antonia's parents are divorced and her mother suffers from depression. Jazz is from a wealthy, traditional family. But when these two very different girls find themselves facing each other in a peer-counseling program, they discover they have some surprising things in common. With both humor and heart, this absorbing read will keep readers thinking and laughing.

With the increasing risk of litigation in midwifery, there is often a move to err on the side of caution and classify women as 'at risk' even if they present with only a hint of a problem. Reflecting the need for global professional standards, this unique book presents the available evidence on normality in childbirth and proposes new approaches and paradigms for future research and practice. Covering a variety of subjects, international contributors present evidence-based, practical expertise on normal birth to help readers become aware of the wide parameters of "normal" in order to practice effectively and safely. Explores the nature and implications of normal childbirth as opposed to birth with medical intervention. Challenges the fundamental assumptions underpinning current beliefs and attitudes surrounding normal birth. Synthesizes evidence to provide different ways of seeing normality and interpreting its meanings. Provides a highly applicable reference for readers with an interest in the multiple aspects of normal birth. With 18 expert contributors

*As heard on BBC Radio 4 Woman's Hour* *A Blackwell's and Waterstones Best Popular Science Book of 2022* 'Excellent ... one of those rare pop-science books that make you look at the whole world differently' The Daily Telegraph ***** 'Riveting' Mail on Sunday ***** 'Captivating' Guardian, Book of the Day 'Compelling' Observer Sarah Chaney takes us on an eye-opening and surprising journey into the history of science, revisiting the studies, landmark experiments and tests that proliferated from the early 19th century to find answers to the question: what's normal? These include a census of hallucinations - and even a UK beauty map (which claimed the women in Aberdeen were "the most repellent"). On the way she exposes many of the hangovers that are still with us from these dubious endeavours, from IQ tests to the BMI. Interrogating how the notion and science of standardisation has shaped us all, as individuals and as a society, this book challenges why we ever thought that normal might be a desirable thing to be.

by MICHEL FOUCAULT Everyone knows that in France there are few logicians but many historians of science; and that in the 'philosophical establishment' - whether teaching or research oriented - they have occupied a considerable position. But do we know precisely the importance that, in the course of these past fifteen or twenty years, up to the very frontiers of the establishment, a 'work' like that of Georges Canguilhem can have had for those very people who were separ ated from, or challenged, the establishment? Yes, I know, there have been noisier theatres: psychoanalysis, Marxism, linguistics, ethnology. But let us not forget this fact which depends, as you will, on the sociology of French intellectual environments, the functioning of our university institutions or our system of cultural values: in all the political or scientific discussions of these strange sixty years past, the role of the 'philosophers' - I simply mean those who had received their university training in philosophy department- has been important: perhaps too important for the liking of certain people. And, directly or indirectly, all or almost all these philosophers have had to 'come to terms with' the teaching and books of Georges Canguilhem. From this, a paradox: this man, whose work is austere, intentionally and carefully limited to a particular domain in the history of science, which in any case does not pass for a spectacular discipline, has somehow found him self present in discussions where he himself took care never to figure.

Updated and expanded, Discrete Mathematics for New Technology, Second Edition provides a sympathetic and accessible introduction to discrete mathematics, including the core mathematics requirements for undergraduate computer science students. The approach is comprehensive yet maintains an easy-to-follow progression from the basic mathematical ideas to the more sophisticated concepts examined in the latter stages of the book. Although the theory is presented rigorously, it is illustrated by the frequent use of pertinent examples and is further reinforced with exercises-some with hints and solutions-to enable the reader to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the subject at hand. New to the Second Edition Numerous new examples and exercises designed to illustrate and reinforce mathematical concepts and facilitate students' progression through the topics New sections on typed set theory and an introduction to formal specification Presenting material that is at the foundations of mathematics itself, Discrete Mathematics for New Technology is a readable, friendly textbook designed for non-mathematicians as well as for computing and mathematics undergraduates alike.

This book offers a comprehensive first-level introduction to data analytics. The book covers multivariate analysis, AI / ML, and other computational techniques for solving data analytics problems using Python. The topics covered include (a) a working introduction to programming with Python for data analytics, (b) an overview of statistical techniques – probability and statistics, hypothesis testing, correlation and regression, factor analysis, classification (logistic regression, linear discriminant analysis, decision tree, support vector machines, and other methods), various clustering techniques, and survival analysis, (c) introduction to general computational techniques such as market basket analysis, and social network analysis, and (d) machine learning and deep learning. Many academic textbooks are available for teaching statistical applications using R, SAS, and SPSS. However, there is a dearth of textbooks that provide a comprehensiveintroduction to the emerging and powerful Python ecosystem, which is pervasive in data science and machine learning applications. The book offers a judicious mix of theory and practice, reinforced by over 100 tutorials coded in the Python programming language. The book provides worked-out examples that conceptualize real-world problems using data curated from public domain datasets. It is designed to benefit any data science aspirant, who has a basic (higher secondary school level) understanding of programming and statistics. The book may be used by analytics students for courses on statistics, multivariate analysis, machine learning, deep learning, data mining, and business analytics. It can be also used as a reference book by data analytics professionals.

This book presents in a clear and systematic manner the general theory of normal families, quasi-normal families and Qm-normal families of meromorphic functions, and various applications. Much of this book contains results of the author's research, among them is the notion of Qm-normality which includes the classical notions of normality and quasi-normality introduced by Montel as particular cases. In this book, the notion of closed families of meromorphic functions is also introduced. In addition, applications concerning the existence of the solution of various extremal problems for certain classes of univalent or multivalent functions can also be found.
