In this book you will learn numbers in Modern Standard Arabic [MSA] and the grammar and vocabulary that are necessary to understand and learn how to communicate information about counting, arithmetic, time, pricing, and orders. This book is carefully designed to help you master Arabic numerals in a contextual and interactive method. The book is divided into eight chapters: Chapter One: An Introduction to Numbers in General. Chapter Two: Simple Numbers Chapter Three: Compound [ mourakkab ]  Numbers Chapter Four: Decade\Tens [ ouqoud ] Numbers Chapter Five: Added [ ma’touf ] Numbers Chapter Six: Ordinal Numbers Chapter Seven: Time Expressions Chapter Eight: Miscellaneous   Names of months and Reading Dates  Fractions and Decimals Distributive Adjectives Telephone Numbers Calculations Shopping Reading & Saying Big Numbers Grammar of Numbers in sentences Chapter Nine: General Quizzes Each chapter introduces a set of numbers and explains the grammar and the structure for each set. Videos and Audios are designed to make learning clearer and varied.  In the  end of each chapter there are quizzes relevant to the content of the chapter for practice and self-assessment. Almost every word in this book is presented in a context both spoken (audio) and written ( for reading) and illustrated by an image (visual) to help the learners memorise the words. In other words, this book does not teach numbers in Arabic in an ordinary way. It does not focus on the numbers as single units to memorise but rather introduces numbers within a context of texts, sentences, images, math calculations, graphs and tables. The learner explores and practises the numbers and gains more knowledge of Arabic and grammar altogether. However, learners who want to study the numbers only, without going further into the grammar, can skim or skip the information they do not want to know.  The rich and varied content of the book covers the following points: Learning the numbers  Grammar of number usage Gaining and mastering Arabic words Practicing reading and listening Finally, this book is designed in a way that learners of all ages can use to learn about numbers and relevant topics such as (talking about time and dates, reading an equation, understanding and using calculations . Whether you are a native or non-native speaker of Arabic, a student or a teacher of Arabic this book can be your complete interactive reference and book to know and learn everything about numbers in Arabic. It also includes passages with the relevant audio and translation which can be used   for reading and listening lessons especially the book is designed to be read and shown on all iOS devices.Furthermore, the layout is user-friendly and works on all Mac platforms from iPhones, iPads, and Mac’s. However, the word search quizzes are better displayed on iPads due to some bugs the software provider is working on and it will be sorted out when the next version is released.  |

Arabic for All is intended and designed to help self-instructing students to learn Arabic in a different way.  Arabic for All tries to provide the students with the basic knowledge of Arabic through reading. The students learn to read as a first step and immediately they start practice and explore the language while they are building up their vocabulary. This book starts from the first pages to furnish the pages as they fold with new words with their sounds and written form that they become familiar to the eye and ear when the students reach advanced levels.  The first of the series ( The Arabic Alphabet ) starts with introducing the Arabic alphabet as it has never been introduced before. The letters are introduced as sounds, shapes and minimal grammar unites in the language. All in all, once the students have finished this level, they will become able to read and understand some of the word grammatical structures that make Arabic sound a difficult language to learn. Arabic for All tries ‘to help students catch fish and provide them with fish everyday.’ It is about nurturing the knowledge rather than only providing it.  Arabic for All , is designed to reinforce and improve reading and listening skills which can improve the rest of skills, writing and speaking. Reading enables the student to read simple signs, do simple quizzes, read books and newspapers, browse Arabic websites and read the Quran for those who study Arabic for religious purposes. |

From the author of the iTunes bestseller “The Yellow Cab of the Universe – The Solar System,” Mr. Albert’s Brain, is a revolutionary Physics textbook designed expressly for iBooks. If physics doesn’t completely blow your mind, you must not be looking at it correctly. The Yellow Cab can take you where no Physics book has gone before — into the mind of a brilliant (though slightly eccentric) scientist who can show you how this world we live in really works! The pages of the book unfold themselves to hundreds of other interactive pages, combining stunning artwork with original animation, video, 3D models that will radically redefine for you how a physics book should look and feel. Mr. Albert will take you on a journey through Motion, Force, Gravity, Heat, Waves, Electricity, Magnetism and lots more. As interesting as it is for adult readers, it is specifically designed to be used as a textbook by high school students (and as a presentation tool for teachers) – especially those who have found science in general and all kinds of textbooks, both paper and digital, lifeless and boring. Mr. Albert’s Brain will grab you with the stickiness of a video game, explaining basic concepts and key facts while taking you on an amazing journey, all the while reinforcing what you have previously learned in the interactive modules. There has never been a Physics book like Mr. Albert’s Brain, and the best way to see what we are talking about is to download the book (or book sample) to experience it for yourself! You will not be disappointed.  |

This book is an expression of Dr. Kenji Takada’s interest in the “big picture” of orthodontics during his distinguished career at Osaka University as a faculty member, orthodontic department chairman and dean of the School of Dentistry. It covers all aspects of orthodontics, but it differs from most texts in its effort to integrate neurophysiology and mathematical modeling into a better understanding of the etiology of malocclusion and jaw function and in the incorporation of both neurophysiology and modeling into diagnostic procedures.  I first met Kenji in 1982 while he was spending a post-doctoral year in Alan Lowe’s laboratory at the University of British Columbia, and he became a friend with whom I have stayed in touch through the years. In his early years as a faculty member at Osaka, he was already working out some of the mechanisms by which TM joint problems are related to jaw function and dental occlusion. He remained focused for most his career on obtaining a better understanding of adaptations to malocclusion and how this affected orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning.  This book offers a unique summary, taken both from Kenji’s work and from other published data, of the current understanding of the neurophysiology of jaw function and its relationship to orthodontic problems. For example, in addition to describing facial proportions and how to evaluate them in the context of orthodontic treatment, it includes findings from neuroscience about neural recognition of human faces and a discussion of the neural basis for multiple versions of facial beauty. A mathematical model of a non-linear description of diagnostic elements is incorporated into the diagnostic scheme that can simulate expert decisions. The book also includes information about biomechanical modeling of orthodontic tooth movement that goes beyond classic finite element analysis, which has not been successful in predicting the outcome of various force systems against the teeth, and offers a bio-mathematical kinetic model that has the potential to reach that goal. A similar approach is taken in the development of an optimized model that predicts whether non-extraction orthodontic treatment or extractions would be the best option. In short, Elements of Orthodontics is a step beyond existing orthodontic textbooks. There are many new things for orthodontic residents and practitioners to consider and evaluate, on their way to a better understanding of the intellectual foundation of our specialty. From Preface by William R. Proffit, DDS, PhD; Kenan Distinguished Professor, Orthodontics, University of North Carolina School of Dentistry, Chapel Hill, North Carolina |

The primary purpose of this book is to teach computer programming to those with little to no previous experience. It uses the programming system and language called MATLAB to do so because MATLAB is easy to learn and, at the same time, is an extremely versatile and useful programming language and programming environment. MATLAB is a special-purpose language that is an excellent choice for writing moderate-size programs that solve problems involving the manipulation of numbers. The design of the language makes it possible to write a powerful program in a few lines. The problems may be relatively complex, while the MATLAB programs that solve them are relatively simple: relative, that is, to the equivalent program written in a general-purpose language, such as C++ or Java. As a result, MATLAB is being used in a wide variety of domains from the natural sciences through all disciplines of engineering to finance and beyond, and it is heavily used in industry. Hence, a solid background in MATLAB is an indispensable skill in today’s job market. Nevertheless, this book is not merely a reference manual for MATLAB or a MATLAB tutorial. It is an introductory programming textbook that happens to use MATLAB to illustrate general concepts in computer science and programming. As a side effect, the reader will gain a solid foundation in MATLAB. This book is a good fit for an introductory college-level course in computer programming for engineering and science students. In fact, it is being used as the textbook for such a course at Vanderbilt University. It serves the dual purpose of teaching computer programming and providing a background in MATLAB, which is used in higher-level courses in many majors. This book is also suitable to teach programming to high school students. The material assumes no background in mathematics that is not part of standard high school curricula, and MATLAB is much more accessible as an introduction to programming to the average student than Java, C, C++, or other general-purpose languages. |
