One Plus One Equals One


Book Description

We are in the midst of a revolution. It is a scientific revolution built upon the tools of molecular biology, with which we probe and prod the living world in ways unimaginable a few decades ago. Need to track a bacterium at the root of a hospital outbreak? No problem: the offending germ's complete genetic profile can be obtained in 24 hours. We insert human DNA into E. coli bacteria to produce our insulin. It is natural to look at biotechnology in the 21st century with a mix of wonder and fear. But biotechnology is not as 'unnatural' as one might think. All living organisms use the same molecular processes to replicate their genetic material and the same basic code to 'read' their genes. The similarities can be seen in their DNA. Here, John Archibald shows how evolution has been 'plugging-and-playing' with the subcellular components of life from the very beginning and continues to do so today. For evidence, we need look no further than the inner workings of our own cells. Molecular biology has allowed us to gaze back more than three billion years, revealing the microbial mergers and acquisitions that underpin the development of complex life. One Plus One Equals One tells the story of how we have come to this realization and its implications.

Lessons for Extending Place Value


Book Description

"Through games, investigations, and children’s literature, students explore the base ten system through the ten thousands, moving from using concrete manipulatives to more abstract reasoning. Using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, students apply their knowledge of place value to solve a variety of problems."--pub. desc.

Malevolent Deception


Book Description

'Professor, you don't know me...I have run across an anomaly...I cannot speak on this satellite phone except to urge you to come to Egypt and Giza as quickly as possible. This discovery is of the utmost importance, and secrecy is vital.' Recruited for her expertise in spirituality, Dr. Georgia Smythe-Reed joins a team of Egyptologists commissioned to investigate seven identical stones in the King's Chamber of The Great Pyramid—a possible link between Egyptian mythology and the Bible and a key to unlocking the mysteries surrounding the pyramids. It's not long before the team of four begins discovering clues about an ancient underground society whose members may have originally come from another world. As the team works to piece together their research, they uncover even more than they anticipated, coming into direct contact with members of the underground society known as the Zep Tepi. This group seems friendly enough, but unknown to the researchers, their goal is to control our world, take away our individual freedoms, and turn us all into servants. Will the researchers buy into the ideologies and persuasive promises of the Zep Tepi, or is their offer too good to be true? Stakes are high as these four researchers face a Malevolent Deception, putting their faith and beliefs to the test and ultimately forcing them to choose between God and Satan.
