Elementary School Mathematics is written for elementary school teachers as well as parents who wish to be involved in their childrens first steps in mathematical education. The reading of this book will benefit educators - whether at home or at school - by consolidating their content knowledge, while exposing them to both complexity and beauty of elementary mathematics.

If everyone who took a course in introductory statistics understood that there is a better chance of doing well and enjoying the subject than winning the jackpot, this book would not have been published and lotteries would be making less. Maybe you have a phobia regarding Statistics and maybe your conception of it is boredom, tedium and incomprehensibility. The book Thinking Differently invites you to reconsider. Statistics helps us understand phenomena in a wide variety of fields. This book presents in a friendly and humorous manner the logic, the intuition and the beauty of Statistics, without delving into mathematical depth. This goal of the book is not a mere transmission of technical details; it aims to impart comprehension and a way of thinking. The book places a strong emphasis on the connection between Statistics and the world, expressed by timely examples from many fields - via detailed applications, through exercises whose solutions appear at the end of the book and by means of pictures and illustrations. Basic statistical concepts, such as "average", are in everyday use. Why, then, is the attitude towards Statistics ambivalent? Why do we have faith in the weather forecast, but regard surveys suspiciously? What is a "statistical fraud"? How do babies come into the world? This book makes an effort to answer the first three questions and to underscore the intricacy of the subject, both its capability and incapability, the misunderstanding of which incurs errors and invites unrealistic expectations.

Game theory is a mathematical discipline that deals with the modeling and the analysis of interactive decision situations. Such situations involve several decision makers that have different goals, and the decision of each one of them may affect the other decision makers. The theory originated in the 1940s, and since then it has been applied in many areas , like economics, biology, computer science, and political science. The book is especially well adapted to teaching: classical mathematical results are presented with mathematical completeness and rigor. The teacher will find all the material necessary for a mathematical understanding of the theory, without any need to use other sources. In addition, the book is replete with exercises of varying levels of difficulty, starting with easy exercises for beginners and ending with difficult ones suited for Ph.D. students.
