Hardback. Etat : Good. National Finalist in the Kids' Book Choice Award (Best Info Meets Graphics) by the Children's Book Council Go behind the scenes of weather forecasting with TV meteorologist Guy Brown! Guy shares his weather journal to show you exactly what weather forecasting is like--from reading satellite images at the studio, to going on location in inclement weather conditions. Since weather affects all living things, predicting and responding to changes in the weather is important to both humans and animals. In his journal, Guy will tell you all about how humans and animals alike respond to things like blinding fog, crackling thunderstorms, and whirling tornadoes. With Mario Lugo's vivid art, readers see some of the amazing clouds that bring us wildly different weather and learn how animals use their adaptations to weather the storms. Guy introduces readers to cloud identification techniques while sharing a glimpse into survival, in town and in the wild. So bring your rain boots, pack some sunscreen, and get ready for a weather adventure! Don't forget to watch the clouds and take notes along the way. By the end, you'll be ready to become a meteorologist just like Guy. Lugo, Mario (illustrateur).…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Once asked to explain how he had sustained himself over so many years of struggle, C sar Ch vez responded: I don't think I could base my will to struggle on cold economics or some political doctrine. For me, the base must be faith. In evaluating the life and struggles of C sar Ch vez, one of the most recognized Latino leaders in the United States and the first labor leader to successfully organize and unionize U.S. farm workers, many historians, journalists, and other writers have largely missed one significant factor of his life--his faith and deep spirituality. The Gospel of C sar Ch vez uses the prolific leader's own words to express his profound faith and the way it shaped his life and leadership.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Bestselling author and astrophysicist Mario Livio examines the lives and theories of history?s greatest mathematicians to ask how?if mathematics is an abstract construction of the human mind?it can so perfectly explain the physical world.Nobel Laureate Eugene Wigner once wondered about ?the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics? in the formulation of the laws of nature. Is God a Mathematician? investigates why mathematics is as powerful as it is. From ancient times to the present, scientists and philosophers have marveled at how such a seemingly abstract discipline could so perfectly explain the natural world. More than that?mathematics has often made predictions, for example, about subatomic particles or cosmic phenomena that were unknown at the time, but later were proven to be true. Is mathematics ultimately invented or discovered? If, as Einstein insisted, mathematics is ?a product of human thought that is independent of experience,? how can it so accurately describe and even predict the world around us? Physicist and author Mario Livio brilliantly explores mathematical ideas from Pythagoras to the present day as he shows us how intriguing questions and ingenious answers have led to ever deeper insights into our world. This fascinating book will interest anyone curious about the human mind, the scientific world, and the relationship between them.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. What do Bach's compositions, Rubik's Cube, the way we choose our mates, and the physics of subatomic particles have in common? All are governed by the laws of symmetry, which elegantly unify scientific and artistic principles. Yet the mathematical language of symmetry-known as group theory-did not emerge from the study of symmetry at all, but from an equation that couldn't be solved. For thousands of years mathematicians solved progressively more difficult algebraic equations, until they encountered the quintic equation, which resisted solution for three centuries. Working independently, two great prodigies ultimately proved that the quintic cannot be solved by a simple formula. These geniuses, a Norwegian named Niels Henrik Abel and a romantic Frenchman named Évariste Galois, both died tragically young. Their incredible labor, however, produced the origins of group theory. The first extensive, popular account of the mathematics of symmetry and order, The Equation That Couldn't Be Solved is told not through abstract formulas but in a beautifully written and dramatic account of the lives and work of some of the greatest and most intriguing mathematicians in history.…
