The long-neglected sequel to Rudyard Kipling's Rikki-tikki-tavi, imagined by fans and authors for decades, is finally depicted in this imaginative tale. The Indian Cobra Zirak returns for revenge against Rikki-tikki for killing his family and changing his destiny.
An ordinary Mormon boy finds himself doing extraordinary things in a land far from home; Pete's decision to leave his loved ones and all things familiar, becomes one of the greatest challenges he would ever face. The boundaries of his comfort zone are put to the test as he endeavors to seek out and find those who are searching for answers to the many questions that arise as we all sojourn through this mortal life; at the same time, he develops a deeper understanding of those things, and discovers a mighty change within himself. Ironically, there is little difference between Pete and the thousands of young men who continue to make that same decision to go and do the same thing every day. Upon further inspection many years later, Pete discovers that his seemingly ordinary mission was anything but ordinary... This story is ideal for young men and women who are planning or preparing to serve an LDS Mission and for those who have already served. It is also suited for those not familiar with the LDS Church and want to know what serving a mission is all about.
This book contains a compact, accessible treatment of the main mathematical topics encountered in economics at an advanced level, moving from basic material into the twin areas of static and dynamic optimization. Nearly half of the book is devoted to a survey of univariate calculus, matrix algebra and multuvariate calculus. This fundamental material is made vigorous by the inclusion of a variety of applications. The later chapters focus on the Lagrange multiplier technique: when it will work, why it works and what economic insights it yields. The properties of maximum value functions and duality are explored, as are the Hamiltonian conditions for dynamic problems in the optimal control format. Dynamic programming and the calculus of variations are also covered. Much of the discussion proceeds at a heuristic level and by worked example, but the theorems and proofs required by the most analytical user are also to be found. The underlying message is that the language of mathematics can be productive, giving expression to the ideas and facilitating approaches from which insights flow that may be hard to come by in other ways. The book will be particularly useful for final year undergraduates doing mathematics for economists courses, and postgraduate students.
