This book is primarily created to give students a refresher course in the math topics that they will need to know for the SAT Math test. We have made this book concise and made sure to cover all of the most commonly tested topics. Each topic is explained well with many examples and followed by practice questions with full solutions. We really spent a lot of time on this book and wanted to make sure to create a book that will not take too long for a student to go through. One of the biggest mistakes students make is to spend too much time relearning or refreshing on topics. Your goal as a student who is preparing for the SAT is to "brush up" on the math topics as quickly as possible and spend most of your time doing practice questions and practice tests. So, use this book along with our math practice test books to maximize your study time and rock the SAT Math test.
Manual de Instrucciones Para Universitarios Primerizos
Cada a簽o, miles de nuevos j籀venes estudiantes acceden a las Universidades espa簽olas. Ahora con el Plan de Estudios Comunes Europeos ("Plan Bolonia") muchos de ellos, a pesar de haber hecho unos Bachilleratos brillantes, fracasan en su 1簞 curso, fundamentalmente por falta de INFORMACION sobre muchos aspectos y detalles que hay que tener en cuenta y que las Universidades no difunden adecuadamente.El autor, ingeniero senior jubilado que volvi籀 a las aulas en 2011, se gradu籀 en Historia en 2015, hizo el M獺ster en Estudios Avanzados e Investigaci籀n en Historia, y ahora compagina su 2簞 a簽o de Doctorado con nuevos j籀venes compa簽eros en el 1簞 Curso del Grado en Historia del Arte, ha comprobado que a簽o tras a簽o, cada nueva promoci籀n de estudiantes, sigue cometiendo los mismos errores que 矇l mismo y sus compa簽eros ya cometieron en 2011. Solo "desde dentro" y viviendo los mismos problemas se es capaz de sintetizarlos y proponer f獺ciles soluciones. De un modo ameno y desenfadado, explica en este Manual todo lo que el estudiante primerizo DEBE HACER (y lo que NO) para tener 矇xito en su primer a簽o de Universidad.

Valoraci籀n del comportamiento de las partes en el proceso
La valoraci籀n judicial del comportamiento de las partes dentro del proceso ha adquirido en los 繳ltimos tiempos un importante lugar en los estudios de derecho procesal. Particularmente desde una perspectiva probatoria la conducta de las partes ha alcanzado una notoriedad en cuanto a su relaci籀n con el llamado deber de buena fe procesal o tambi矇n conocido como principio de moralidad procesal. En este sentido, se afirma que la conducta procesal de las partes que contrar穩e los imperativos abiertos e indeterminados que se deducen de la buena fe y moralidad procesal (entre ellos la colaboraci籀n), puede llegar a transformarse en elemento de convicci籀n para que el juez decida el fondo de la causa, bien como elemento corroborante de prueba o como un elemento suficiente para la acreditaci籀n-desacreditaci籀n de los hechos controvertidos, participando, adem獺s, en la categor穩a de sanci籀n a la parte que no colabora con la b繳squeda de la justicia y la verdad. En atenci籀n al poder general que se le otorga al juez, bien por v穩a normativa (norma expresa) o bien por v穩a de construcci籀n de normas (inexpresas). Todo esto, a nuestro parecer, bajo una falta de rigor y racionalidad en cuanto al contexto donde se utiliza este tipo de tesis: el proceso. Para desarrollar las ideas que nos convocan creemos necesario se簽alar qu矇 entendemos por proceso, pues de ello depender獺 la l穩nea argumentativa de esta monograf穩a. As穩 pues, entendemos que el proceso es m矇todo, espec穩ficamente un medio pac穩fico de debate dial矇ctico entre dos antagonistas en perfecto pie de igualdad (para descartar el uso de la fuerza) ante un tercero (que, como tal, es impartial, imparcial e independiente) que heterocompondr獺 el litigio si es que no se disuelve por alguna de las v穩as posibles de autocomposici籀n. La idea dial矇ctica del proceso como medio o m矇todo de debate, permite una claridad previa para iniciar una discusi籀n sobre temas controversiales. La prueba es uno de esos temas, m獺s aun cuando se la relaciona con la conducta de las partes dentro de este m矇todo (el proceso). Sin desconocer que el proceso genera una relaci籀n jur穩dica (von B羹low), as穩 como tambi矇n situaciones jur穩dicas (Goldschmidt), decir que el proceso es un m矇todo de debate dial矇ctico, en el sentido antes enunciado, permite una claridad previa para su estudio. Como m矇todo se manifiesta con rigor y para que siga siendo lo que est獺 llamado a ser debe observar principios. Para que el proceso pueda ser identificado como una categor穩a jur穩dica 繳nica e irrepetible de cualquier otra forma que exista de solucionar conflictos, se hace menester formular principios necesarios para lograrlo (lo que) implica tanto como trazar l穩neas directivas fundamentales que deben ser imprescindiblemente respetadas para lograr el m穩nimo de coherencia que supone todo sistema. La buena fe procesal, entendida como principio (principio de moralidad procesal), es a menudo justificada desde un concepto m獺s amplio de buena fe, fundamentalmente desde aquel concepto del derecho privado e incluso, como una m獺xima que debe gobernar todo tipo de relaci籀n jur穩dica; por ejemplo se簽ala Chiovenda que lo mismo que cualquier relaci籀n jur穩dica o social, la relaci籀n procesal debe ser regida por la buena fe. Sobre el principio de moralidad o buena fe procesal nos vamos a detener en el desarrollo del texto teniendo en cuenta lo manifestado en esta introducci籀n y su relaci籀n con un tema incluido en la prueba procesal. En espec穩fico, con el valor probatorio o de convicci籀n de la conducta procesal de las partes cuando desde normas generales es considerada contraria al principio de moralidad (al deber de buena fe procesal, probidad, lealtad, deber de decir la verdad o deber de veracidad, etc.) infiri矇ndose, total o parcialmente de la conducta de una de las partes, alguna consecuencia determinante de la prueba o del resultado del proceso...
