  • Macbeth: York Notes for GCSE

    Paperback (Pearson Education Limited, Aug. 4, 2015)
    Macbeth York Notes for GCSE 9-1
  • The Vanguard, a Tale of Korea

    James Scarth Gale

    Paperback (HardPress Publishing, Jan. 10, 2012)
    Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
  • Population Genetics

    J. S. Gale

    eBook (Springer, March 7, 2013)
    POPULATION GENETICS IS OFTEN THOUGHT TO BE A DIFFICULT SUBJECT. To some extent, difficulties are inevitable in a field where some quite basic points are controversial. However, problems are most acute when theoretical points are discussed, despite the fact that there has been very little controversy over the mathematics. In my experience, the actual mathematical manipulations rarely cause much difficulty. Rather it is that the biologist, lacking the physicist's or chemist's experience in "reading" mathematical formulae, finds it difficult to appreciate what is happening in a mathematical treatment and to grasp the implications of the results obtained, when these are given in mathematical form. Accordingly, I have followed a procedure, which students seem to find helpful, of giving a rough-and-ready verbal treatment of a problem before attempting a much more exact mathematical treatment; when the results of the latter are not readily interpretable, I have given an elucidation. Another problem which often concerns students is the reliability of results obtained using approximate methods; I have, therefore, discussed this in fair detail in critical cases. When dealing with controversial issues, I have done my very best to be fair. To conceal one's opinions entirely would probably make for a very dull book. I trust, however, that I have given enough for the reader previously unfamiliar with these controversies to form his own judge­ ment.

  • The Vanguard, a Tale of Korea

    James Scarth Gale

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, June 17, 2012)
    Preface THERE are other battles than those fought with steel and lead, where generalship is needed, and courage likewise. It is concerning one of these, now going on, that this book is written. With only a thin veil of disguise thrown over the actual workers, who are still on the field, and only such fictitious elements introduced as are necessary to a story that has to do with native thought and character, the writer has, to the best of his ability, given a true picture of the campaign thus far, and the conditions, with some of its lights as well as its shadows. May the earnestness of the conflict come home to the reader. J. S. G.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
