  Features a new "where are they now" section, with updates about lives of expedition's original climbers and updated resources based on the "Anti-Racism in the Outdoors" (ARITO) guide. 
   
   
   
  Outdoor journalist James Edward Mills's book, The Adventure Gap, is a groundbreaking volume that is equal parts adventure story, history, and inspiration as it chronicles the first American all-Black summit attempt on Denali in 2013. Mills uses this momentous expedition as a jumping-off point to explore diversity in the outdoors, from Mathew Henson who stood at the North Pole in 1909 to contemporary adventurers such as polar explorer Barbara Hillary and rock climber Kai Lightner. 
   
   
   
  This tenth anniversary edition once again shares the compelling events that unfolded during Expedition Denali's summit bid. But it also provides fresh context: A new thought-provoking afterword by Mills examines what has evolved in and around the outdoor community since that effort. He highlights progress and inspiring stories, such as Full Circle Everest, an expedition led by Phillip Henderson that put an all-Black team on top of the world's highest peak. And he points to places where we can and should all strive for higher achievement. The Adventure Gap has become an essential text in outdoor education and inspiration—a story of our times, now more relevant than ever.

  Saved by a Stranger is an honest, down-to-earth, informative book inspiring hope, perseverance, and triumph for those who are facing the need for a new organ. Through great storytelling, the author helps patients and caregivers feel empowered as they face the challenges of the unknown. 
  After battling a rare autoimmune disorder called Primary Schlerosing Cholangitis (PSC) for eighteen years which led to cirrhosis, Lezlee Peterzell Bellanich's husband, Capt. Rob, finally received his life-saving liver transplant on September 10, 2020 at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. Today, he looks and feels like a healthy man with a new engine inside of him. 
  What were all of the twists and turns that led to where they are now? How does hearing amazing survival stories from other transplant patients provide hope and crucial information to those on the waitlist? How, who, and where do donated organs come from? 
  Saved by a Stranger unlocks the mystery of organ donation and transplantation through honest storytelling. The author not only describes their family's personal journey, which included relocating from New York to Florida at the beginning of the Covid outbreak, but also features chapters and interviews with other transplant patients and medical professionals in this field. In doing so, she hopes to increase organ donor registration, give hope to those on the transplant waitlist, and encourage all transplant centers to have regular support group meetings like the Mayo Clinic's weekly Second Chance support group for liver and kidney transplant patients and caregivers.

  An accessible and enjoyabel way to develop the thinking tools and techniques to understand the math of modern life.When we learn about abstract mathematical concepts—from prime numbers and fractals to aspects of calculus—the most common question is often: when on earth will I need this? To many of us, so-called "pure" mathematics is downright baffling. Yet these concepts are what underpin the world we live in, from internet security to the transmission of radio waves. When you start to think like a mathematician, the secrets of technology and modern life suddenly make sense.Junaid Mubeen regards mathematics as a collection of thinking tools that can enrich the way we approach our everyday lives. In Think Like a Mathematician, he presents a catalogue of enlightening mathematical concepts. Some will be familiar from school, but the majority are ideas that listeners will not have encountered before. And anyone—from mathematicians to self-proclaimed mathophobes—can learn from them. In Mubeen's clear prose, all of these ideas are easy to grasp, and may even reshape the way you see the world.

  The critical mistake that sabotages OCN exam scores (and how you can avoid it). 
  Passing the OCN exam isn’t a matter of memorizing information or knowing everything there is to know. 
    
  It’s about knowing what specifically is covered on the exam itself and having a personalized plan for filling in any knowledge gaps. 
    
  That’s what makes this OCN Exam guide different. Rather than leaving you to figure out how to schedule your study sessions, this book provides a 14-week preparation roadmap along with key concepts to know for each section of the exam. It specifies particular topics you’ll most likely be tested on and even shows you the percentage breakdown of all the questions by each section. 
    
  Inside, you’ll discover: 
   2 full-length exams (330 questions) to practice with, along with detailed answer explanations for each to help you spot any areas of knowledge to focus onA special study “hack” that makes it easier to stay focused and prevent information overloadThe vital pre-practice step that helps you get the most out of any OCN practice test you take (don’t attempt a single practice question until you’ve done this)Detailed profiles of the 18 cancer care symptoms to know about (including etiology, frequency, and treatment options)Which oncological emergencies are you tested on, and important facts to remember for each one 
    
  And much more! 
    
  So whether you’re an experienced oncology nurse or still fairly new to nursing, this guide can not only help you focus on the right topics but also keep you on the path toward earning your certification. 
    
  Dominate the OCN exam and take your career to the next level.

  From the strange behavior of subatomic particles to the revolutionary theories that challenge our classical intuitions, this meticulously crafted work guides readers through the quantum landscape that underlies our universe. 
  Fundamentals of Quantum Mechanics introduces the core mathematical framework and philosophical concepts that revolutionized physics in the early 20th century. Explore wave-particle duality, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, and the probabilistic nature of quantum systems through clear explanations and illuminating thought experiments. Discover how these radical ideas emerged from experimental puzzles that classical physics could not resolve. 
  Introduction to Quantum Mechanics builds upon these foundations, delving into the elegant mathematics of Schrödinger's equation, quantum operators, and Hilbert spaces. Examine fundamental quantum systems from the particle in a box to the quantum harmonic oscillator, and understand how these models provide insights into real-world phenomena from atomic structure to molecular bonding. Master the techniques of quantum analysis through carefully selected examples that bridge theory and application. 
  Introduction to Quantum Field Theory takes readers to the frontier of modern theoretical physics, where particles emerge as excitations of underlying quantum fields. Explore how quantum electrodynamics reconciles quantum mechanics with special relativity, providing our most precise physical theory to date. 
  Whether you're a physics student seeking clarity, a scientist from another discipline, or a curious reader fascinated by the quantum foundations of reality, this accessible yet rigorous three-in-one volume provides both mathematical precision and conceptual insight into the microscopic universe that shapes everything we observe.
