This provocative book offers a disturbing view of the ways in which special-interest groups influence the content of public school education. Focusing on recent lawsuits involving attempts to censor or ban textbooks and on other efforts by ultraliberal and ultraconservative groups to have sections of textbooks eliminated or rewritten, Joan DelFattore shows that political and economic forces of the right and left have heavy and often pernicious influence on American textbook publishers.

Reviewing the theory of the general linear model (GLM) using a general framework, Univariate and Multivariate General Linear Models: Theory and Applications with SAS, Second Edition presents analyses of simple and complex models, both univariate and multivariate, that employ data sets from a variety of disciplines, such as the social and behavioral sciences.With revised examples that include options available using SAS 9.0, this expanded edition divides theory from applications within each chapter. Following an overview of the GLM, the book introduces unrestricted GLMs to analyze multiple regression and ANOVA designs as well as restricted GLMs to study ANCOVA designs and repeated measurement designs. Extensions of these concepts include GLMs with heteroscedastic errors that encompass weighted least squares regression and categorical data analysis, and multivariate GLMs that cover multivariate regression analysis, MANOVA, MANCOVA, and repeated measurement data analyses. The book also analyzes double multivariate linear, growth curve, seeming unrelated regression (SUR), restricted GMANOVA, and hierarchical linear models. New to the Second EditionTwo chapters on finite intersection tests and power analysis that illustrates the experimental GLMPOWER procedureExpanded theory of unrestricted general linear, multivariate general linear, SUR, and restricted GMANOVA models to comprise recent developments Expanded material on missing data to include multiple imputation and the EM algorithmApplications of MI, MIANALYZE, TRANSREG, and CALIS proceduresA practical introduction to GLMs, Univariate and Multivariate General Linear Models demonstrates how to fully grasp the generality of GLMs by discussing them within a general framework.

This textbook is the ninth volume in a five-level series (Beginning 1 and 2, Intermediate 1 and 2, Advanced Intermediate 1 and 2, Advanced 1 and 2, and High Advanced 1 and 2) developed collaboratively by leading classroom teachers and linguists of Korean. All series’ volumes have been developed in accordance with performance-based principles and methodology—contextualization, learner-centeredness, use of authentic materials, function/task-orientedness, balance between skill getting and skill using, and integration of speaking, listening, reading, writing, and culture. Grammar points are systematically introduced with simple but adequate explanations and abundant examples, exercises, and drills. Each lesson of this volume consists of pre-reading activities, one or two main reading texts, new words, useful expressions, exercises, comprehension questions, related reading, discussion and composition, and English translation of the reading texts.

The Pocket Guide for the Textbook of Pharmacotherapy for Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Disorders is a quick reference guide for psychiatrists, therapists, social workers, and other practitioners to give them the bottom line about each group of medications. This guide, which discusses the use of psychiatric drugs in patients under 18, accompanies this author team's complete book, Textbook of Pharmacotherapy for Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Disorders. Clinical indications, dosage guidelines, side effects, common drug interactions and most tables are retained and updated in this new guide. In addition, the guide includes new research findings that have been published recently. This guide assumes the reader has done a complete assessment of all non-pharmacologic methods before treating the patient with medication. It also assumes that the reader has a working knowledge of the types of medication available for treating psychiatric illnesses. Once everything is taken into account, the practitioner can accurately determine the advantages and disadvantages of a specific treatment and relay that to the patient. Above all, the Pocket Guide for the Textbook of Pharmacotherapy for Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Disorders provides the reader with the practical guidelines to safely and effectively prescribe medication.
