The aim of this manual is to offer a comprehensive framework for both present and future military surgeons, enabling them to effectively navigate and build a successful career within the military, while also providing them with transferable skills upon completion of their military service. The military healthcare system operates within a unique framework with distinct challenges and opportunities. By acquiring knowledge and insights into the intricacies of military career paths, surgeons can make informed decisions about assignments, promotions and professional development. Navigating an Army, Air Force, Navy or Reserve career requires an understanding of the organizational structures, consultant roles and specific requirements of each service branch. Additionally, being aware of opportunities for advanced education, leadership development and operational assignments enables surgeons to develop a career trajectory aligned with their goals and aspirations. Presently there is not a sole source document, either in the military or civilian sectors, that allows easy access and references to the multiple opportunities afforded to military surgeons or an understanding of life as a surgeon on active duty. Furthermore, this text provides context to civilian organizations, administrative personnel, recruiting departments and family members that interact with or assist in making important decisions for military surgeons. This manual features insight and guidance from senior leaders of our Armed Forces, both past and present, who have excelled in academic, operational and clinical surgical careers. By providing a reference for successfully navigating a military career, this will not only enhance the professional growth of a surgeon, but also ensure the delivery of high-quality healthcare to our service members and beneficiaries both domestic and abroad.

Though Asian Indians are typically thought of as a "model minority", not much is known about the school experiences of their children. Positive stereotyping of these immigrants and their children often masks educational needs and issues, creates class divides within the Indian-American community, and triggers stress for many Asian Indian students. This volume examines second generation (America-born) and 1.5 generation (foreign-born) Asian Indians as they try to balance peer culture, home life and academics. It explores how, through the acculturation process, these children either take advantage of this positive stereotype or refute their stereotyped ethnic image and move to downward mobility. Focusing on migrant experiences of the Indian diasporas in the United States, this volume brings attention to highly motivated Asian Indian students who are overlooked because of their cultural dispositions and outlooks on schooling, and those students who are more likely to underachieve. It highlights the assimilation of Asian Indian students in mainstream society and their understandings of Americanization, social inequality, diversity and multiculturalism.

An in-depth look at the lives, experiences, and professional careers of Black mathematicians in the United States. Erica N. Walker presents a compelling story of Black mathematical excellence in the United States. Much of the research and discussion about Blacks and mathematics focuses on underachievement; by documenting in detail the experiences of Black mathematicians, this book broadens significantly the knowledge base about mathematically successful African Americans. Beyond Banneker demonstrates how mathematics success is fostered among Blacks by mathematicians, mathematics educators, teachers, parents, and others, a story that has been largely overlooked by the profession and research community. Based on archival research and in-depth interviews with thirty mathematicians, this important and timely book vividly captures important narratives about mathematics teaching and learning in multiple contexts, as well as the unique historical and contemporary settings related to race, opportunity, and excellence that Black mathematicians experience. Walker draws upon these narratives to suggest ways to capitalize on the power and potential of underserved communities to respond to the national imperative for developing math success for new generations of young people.

This book brings together leading researchers in mathematics education to share personal narratives of key mathematical moments or ideas that inspired, surprised, or helped direct their research. While the fruits of research activities and products are shared at scholarly conference and journals, the footprints of mathematics that ignited the research processes is often behind the scenes and only acknowledged informally. To make mathematics – an essential component and a determining driving force of mathematics education research – more visible, chapters in this book highlight the indispensable and indisputable role of mathematics in mathematics education research. The book is unique and timely in addressing the essential, but increasingly side-lined, role of mathematics that permeates mathematics education research journals, graduate programs, and the personae of the next generation in the profession. It renounces the shift away from mathematics and attempts to restore the place and value of mathematics by presenting elegant, intriguing, and substantial contributions to mathematics education that have come from keeping mathematics at the core of research pursuits. Each chapter shares a journey in mathematics education research that was inspired by an affinity for mathematics, and that helped shaped the field as we know it. Each author shares insights and reflections on the status of mathematics in the mathematics education community, how it has changed, and what further changes might be expected. This edited volume is of major interest to the mathematics education community, including mathematics educators, teacher educators, researchers, professional development providers, and graduate students.

Throughout the history of warfare at sea, navigation has been an important basic determinant of victory. Occasionally, new members of the fraternity of the sea will look upon navigation as a chore to be tolerated only as long as it takes to find someone else to assume the responsibility. In my experience, such individuals never make good naval officers. Commander Hobbs has succeeded in bringing together the information and practical skills required for that individual who would take the first step down the road toward becoming a competent marine navigator. At the outset of this book, the author stresses the necessity for safe navigation, but there is another basic tenet of sea warfare that this book serves. The best weapons system man has ever devised cannot function effectively unless it knows where it is in relation to the real world, where it is in relation to the enemy, and where the enemy is in relation to the real world. Not all defeats can be attributed to this lack of information, but no victories have been won by those who did not know where they were.

Where did math come from? Who thought up all those algebra symbols, and why? What is the story behind π π? … negative numbers? … the metric system? … quadratic equations? … sine and cosine? … logs? The 30 independent historical sketches in Math through the Ages answer these questions and many others in an informal, easygoing style that is accessible to teachers, students, and anyone who is curious about the history of mathematical ideas. Each sketch includes Questions and Projects to help you learn more about its topic and to see how the main ideas fit into the bigger picture of history. The 30 short stories are preceded by a 58-page bird's-eye overview of the entire panorama of mathematical history, a whirlwind tour of the most important people, events, and trends that shaped the mathematics we know today. “What to Read Next” and reading suggestions after each sketch provide starting points for readers who want to learn more. This book is ideal for a broad spectrum of audiences, including students in history of mathematics courses at the late high school or early college level, pre-service and in-service teachers, and anyone who just wants to know a little more about the origins of mathematics.
