Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if the truth arrived twenty years too late?Former detective Marcus Hale has spent two decades carrying the unbearable weight of his son Ethan's murder-and the painful belief that justice was served long ago.But on the twentieth anniversary of Ethan's death, an anonymous envelope changes everything.Forgotten evidence begins to surface. Long-silent witnesses finally speak. And Marcus is forced to confront a devastating possibility: the case he once believed was solved may have been built on terrible mistakes.His search for the truth leads to Caleb Rowan, a man who has spent twenty years in prison for a crime he may not have committed, and to Caleb's sister, Lillian, whose faith in her brother's innocence has never wavered. As buried secrets emerge, Marcus, Caleb, and Lillian find themselves connected by one tragedy-and by a truth powerful enough to challenge everything they thought they knew.But uncovering what really happened is only the beginning.Because when justice has failed, how do you begin to repair the damage? How do you face the consequences of misplaced trust, years of silence, and decisions that cannot be undone? And when the truth finally comes to light, can redemption still be possible?Before Restitution is an emotionally gripping mystery about grief, wrongful conviction, family, accountability, forgiveness, and the courage to confront the past. As the layers of a twenty-year-old tragedy are slowly uncovered, every revelation brings Marcus closer to answers-and closer to the painful reality of what justice truly demands.A story of lives changed by one devastating event and the enduring hope that truth can restore dignity, even when it cannot restore lost time, Before Restitution will keep you turning the pages as the past reveals its final, unforgettable secret.If you enjoy emotionally driven mysteries, suspenseful investigations, powerful stories of redemption, and unforgettable characters, buy your copy of Before Restitution today and discover what happens when the truth finally refuses to stay buried.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Somewhere between page one and the first impenetrable derivation, you realized there was a gap - a bridge that nobody built for you.This book is that bridge.Applied Electrodynamics picks up where introductory electromagnetic theory leaves off and carries you to the threshold of graduate-level physics. Every derivation is shown step by step - no skipped algebra, no "it can be shown that," no leaps of faith. If you are working through electrodynamics on your own, without a professor to ask at office hours, this is the book that was written for you.WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK DIFFERENTUnlike any other electrodynamics textbook on the market, this book systematically integrates Python-based computational methods alongside analytical techniques in every chapter. You will not just derive electromagnetic fields on paper - you will simulate them, visualize them, and verify your analytical results computationally.Every problem in this book has a complete, worked solution in the back. Not just the final answer. The full derivation, every step, with explanations of the reasoning at each stage. For computational problems, the complete Python code and expected output are included.Modern applications appear in every chapter. You will see how electrostatic principles power capacitive touchscreens and MEMS devices, how electromagnetic wave theory enables fiber optic communications, how radiation theory connects to antenna design, and how metamaterials and photonic crystals are rewriting the rules of classical optics. This is not theory for its own sake - it is theory that builds technology.WHAT YOU WILL LEARNChapter by chapter, you will build mastery from mathematical foundations through the full Maxwell equations, electromagnetic waves, radiation, special relativity, and computational electromagnetics. Key topics include: Green's functions for electrostatics - the single most important technique for bridging undergraduate to graduate electrodynamics, covered here at an introductory level that no other bridge text provides.Finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation - you will build a working electromagnetic wave simulator from scratch in Python.The electromagnetic field tensor and covariant Maxwell equations - special relativity as the natural language of electrodynamics.Metamaterials, photonic crystals, and transformation optics - the frontiers where classical electromagnetic theory meets modern materials science.WHO THIS BOOK IS FORThis book serves advanced undergraduate physics students who want deeper mastery beyond their introductory course, self-learners working through electrodynamics independently, electrical engineering students seeking the physics-depth treatment their engineering texts do not provide, and graduate students preparing for Jackson-level coursework.Prerequisites: multivariable calculus, introductory electricity and magnetism, and basic Python familiarity. Chapter 1 provides a focused review of the mathematical tools you will need.If you have ever felt lost between the undergraduate and graduate levels of electromagnetic theory - if you wanted solutions you could check, computations you could run, and applications you could see - this book was written for exactly that moment.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From First Principles to Mission Decisions-Master the Engineering Behind Rocket PropulsionA rocket engine is more than a chamber, a nozzle, and a set of equations. It is a system of interconnected engineering decisions-and understanding those decisions is what separates memorizing propulsion theory from truly understanding how rockets work.Rocket Propulsion Engineering Textbook: Theory, Design, and Applied Systems takes you from the fundamental physics of thrust to the complex trade-offs that determine which propulsion system is right for a real mission.Designed for serious engineering students, practicing engineers, and readers who want more than surface-level explanations, this comprehensive textbook builds the subject step by step. Equations are developed from first principles with their assumptions made clear, then reinforced through worked numerical examples that connect theory to practical propulsion hardware.Explore the engineering behind thrust and specific impulse, the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation, thermochemistry, chemical equilibrium, compressible gas dynamics, nozzle expansion, trajectory performance, staging, combustion chambers, injectors, propellant selection, feed systems, turbopumps, engine cycles, cooling, solid motors, hybrid propulsion, electric thrusters, nuclear propulsion, thrust-vector control, testing, and reusable propulsion systems.But understanding individual components is only part of the challenge.The book also shows how those components interact at the system level-how chamber pressure affects pumps, how propellant chemistry influences nozzle performance, how mass fraction changes mission capability, and why the technically "best" propulsion technology may not always be the best choice for a particular mission.Worked examples use realistic engineering parameters to help bridge the gap between equations and actual propulsion systems. Each chapter reinforces learning with practice problems and solutions, making the text useful for structured coursework as well as serious independent study. The manuscript's 18-chapter progression moves from propulsion fundamentals through liquid, solid, hybrid, electric, nuclear, attitude-control, testing, and reusable systems before bringing the entire subject together in propulsion-selection case studies.The final sections challenge you to think like a propulsion engineer rather than simply solve isolated equations. You will examine mission requirements, Dv budgets, performance, mass, cost, reliability, schedule, and technical risk before comparing candidate propulsion architectures.Whether you are studying aerospace or mechanical engineering, preparing for advanced propulsion coursework, or building a deeper professional understanding of spacecraft and launch-vehicle propulsion, this book provides a rigorous path from physics to hardware to mission-level engineering judgment.Stop treating rocket propulsion as a collection of disconnected formulas. Start understanding the complete system-and the engineering decisions that determine what actually flies.Get your copy of Rocket Propulsion Engineering Textbook and build the analytical foundation for understanding the propulsion systems shaping modern spaceflight.
