Now is your chance to journey to another dimension—the third dimension! Learn all about the differences between prisms and pyramids and how to classify both. This title supports Common Core Math Standards involving area, surface area, and volume.

Triangulations presents the first comprehensive treatment of the theory of secondary polytopes and related topics. The text discusses the geometric structure behind the algorithms and shows new emerging applications, including hundreds of illustrations, examples, and exercises.

Introduces the idea of three-dimensional shapes in geometry, and explains how they are measured.

The 3-D Shapes illustrated nonfiction books provide the first lessons on three-dimensional shapes. In Prisms, rhyming text and creative illustrations draw attention to prisms that are found in the world around us. Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Looking Glass Library is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO.

This book provides an overview of the latest technological advances in various ophthalmology subspecialties: from the latest glaucoma shunt devices to mobile adaptors for posterior segment evaluation, this book has it all. It gives readers a valuable head start for adopting the uber-new and cutting-edge products now available on the market. Being familiar with these new products and technologies will help both new and established ophthalmologists make effective and efficient choices, while also helping their practices stand out from the crowd. Perhaps no other branch of medicine is as technology-oriented as ophthalmology: be it lasers, fiber optics, robotics, stem cells or nanoparticles, every cutting-edge step that “Research and Development” takes is rapidly integrated into everyday eye practice.As part of the series “Current Practices in Ophthalmology”, this volume is intended for residents, fellows-in-training, generalist ophthalmologists, specialists and vision science researchers alike.

This invaluable book features bibliographies, important papers, and speeches (for example at international congresses) of Wolf Prize winners. This is the first time that lectures by some Wolf Prize winners have been published together. Since the work of the Wolf laureates covers a wide spectrum, much of the mathematics of the twentieth century comes to life in this book.

Some of the artworks pose difficulties in interpretation, but regardless of amorphous subjects and confusing representations, Butor's creativity finds poetry in them.".

All students can learn about 3-D prisms and nets through text written at four different reading levels. Symbols on the pages represent reading-level ranges to help differentiate instruction. Provided comprehension questions complement the text.

This text examines the various ways in which prisms and small mirrors typically are designed and mounted in optical instruments. It provides analytical tools for evaluating different designs, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of various techniques. The book, in part, is an outgrowth of SPIE short courses taught by the author and is a companion to his 1995 volume Mounting Lenses in Optical Instruments. The work should be useful for engineers and other practitioners in the fields of optical engineering and optomechanical design.
