Meeting the Standards in Primary English: A Guide to ITT NC (Meeting the Standards Series)

Meeting the Standards in Primary English: A Guide to ITT NC (Meeting the Standards Series)
Eve English,John Williamson | 2004-12-16 00:00:00 | Routledge | 224 | Education

This straightforward guide to the professional standards and requirements for primary teachers illustrates the best ways of developing knowledge and how to acquire the skills needed to achieve QTS.
Meeting the Standards in Primary English will:

• explain the Standards relating to English teaching
• link the theory associated with the teaching of English to the practical application
• look in detail at the teaching of reading, fiction, writing, speaking and listening, ICT in literacy and drama
• assist the understanding of grammar and language study
• consider the issues of continuing professional development

This practical guide to meeting the standards will be invaluable for students on primary training courses, lecturers and mentors supporting trainees in English education programmes and newly qualified teachers (NQTs).

Large-Eddy Simulation for Acoustics (Cambridge Aerospace Series)

Large-Eddy Simulation for Acoustics (Cambridge Aerospace Series)
Claus Wagner,Thomas Hüttl,Pierre Sagaut | 2007-01-15 00:00:00 | Cambridge University Press | 470 | Engineering
Noise pollution around airports, trains, and industries increasingly attracts environmental concern and regulation. Designers and researchers have intensified the use of large-eddy simulation (LES) for noise reduced industrial design and acoustical research. This book, written by 30 experts, presents the theoretical background of acoustics and of LES, followed by details about numerical methods, e.g. discretization schemes, boundary conditions, coupling aspects. Industrially relevant, hybrid RANS/LES techniques for acoustic source predictions are presented in detail. Many applications are featured ranging from simple geometries for mixing layers and jet flows to complex wing and car geometries. Selected applications include recent scientific investigations at industrial and university research institutions. Presently one can't offer perfect solution methodologies that address all relevant applications, however the book presents a state of the art collection of methods, tools and evaluation methodologies. The advantages and weaknesses of both the commercial and the research methodologies are carefully presented.

The Complete Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Egypt

The Complete Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Egypt
Richard H. Wilkinson | 2003-05-26 00:00:00 | | 0 | History
I agree with the other reviewers - beautifully illustrated, mostly in full color. It is comprehensive yet particularly the first half of the book is easy to read in it's entirety. The first part of the book covers general concepts of Egyptian Religion and the deities. The second covers individual deities in detail.
I had been looking for a book on Ancient Egyptian religion and deities which was neither outdated in its ideas, nor sterile or boring, nor full of fluff, nor overwhelmed with dense detail, nor assumed detailed prior knowledge of anthropology, archeology or African/Near Eastern history and religion. This book is it. It is beautifully clear and explains how Egyptian views of each deity changed over time. It clearly presents for each deity what syncretism occurred (merging with other gods or the adoption of other gods' attributes) with time. It contains some of the most recent thinking on how the Egyptians might have viewed their own deities. My only minor negative would be that there are no references or footnotes in the text itself for the expert. However, within the body of the text, the author does mention which academics advanced which important concepts and coupled with the extensive and detailed bibliography arranged by subject matter at the end of the book, this minor gripe is assuaged.

Imaging Atlas of the Pelvic Floor and Anorectal Diseases

Imaging Atlas of the Pelvic Floor and Anorectal Diseases
Mario Pescatori,Francisco Sérgio Pinheiro Regadas,Sthela Maria Murad Regadas,Andrew Paul Zbar,Clive I. Bartram,Robert D. Madoff | 2008-09-17 00:00:00 | Springer | 240 | Colorectal

The goal of this atlas, edited and authored by internationally respected experts in the field, is to clearly and precisely present indications, techniques, limitations, sources of errors, and pitfalls of diverse imaging modalities. The text describes the abundant, high-quality images that show the normal anorectal anatomy as well as the pathological appearance of the all-too-common large-bowel and pelvic floor functional diseases. The use of radiopaque markers in diagnosing colonic inertia; defecography, 3D US, and MRI in investigating obstructed defecation; 3D US and MRI in differentiating between benign and malignant anorectal neoplasms; CT and MRI in assessing pelviperineal anatomy and identifying pelvic tumors and inflammatory processes; and 2D-3D US in determining appropriate treatment for fecal incontinence are discussed in depth. This atlas demonstrates the value of a team approach between colorectal surgeons and radiologists for solving complex clinical disorders of the anorectum and PF.

Akhenaten: The Heretic King

Akhenaten: The Heretic King
Donald B. Redford | 1984-01-01 00:00:00 | Princeton University Press | 270 | History
The author portrays Akhenaten more as an atheist than a monotheist. A striking portrait is an outline of this fascinating 'worshiper of the sun', who is also one of the best known pharaohs. A good overview is provided of the Akhenaten Temple Project. Some of the author's comments are amusing which makes the book more enjoyable especially through the 'dry' moments. The book contains a short glossary, suggested readings, and many black and white illustrations and drawings. It is recommended for the open-minded lay person.
