Fundamentals of Structural Analysis

Fundamentals of Structural Analysis fourth edition, introduces engineering and architectural students to the basic techniques for analyzing the most common structural elements, including beams, trusses, frames, cables, and arches. The text covers the classical methods of analysis for determinate and indeterminate structures, and provides an introduction to the matrix formulation on which computer analysis is based. This edition features an expanded treatment of snow, earthquake, and wind loads that are part of the updated ANSI/ASCE 7 standards. We've also added Historical Notes to this addition that provide valuable insights to the development of today's techniques and practices. Additionally, about 30% of the text's problems are new or heavily revised.

Ladron de la Mente

The second title in the Storyteller's Series, @lt;I@gt;Ladron de la mente@lt;/I@gt; is a surreal and supernatural story for high-beginning and low-intermediate students, written in simple Spanish for learners of Spanish. Written by respected author Elias Miguel Munoz, this inviting and inexpensive paperback can be used as early as second semester, first-year Spanish. As the story unfolds, students soon learn what happens to a thief who steals something other than property. The essence of the story has not changed since the first edition, yet @lt;I@gt;Ladron de la mente@lt;/I@gt; now features material that is even more readable and thought provoking. Numerous subtle changes were made as well as some major ones.
