Glencoe Earth Science
by Susan Leach Snyder Ralph Feather Jr.Earth science is the study of planet Earth and its place in space. Think about that. Where would you begin to study Earth? Would you break apart a mineral and magnify it a thousand times, like the sulfur crystals shown here, to unlock the secrets of its structure? Or would you gaze at the skies to learn more about our planet? Earth scientists do both. They study Earth close up and from a distance, using satellite cameras. In this unit, you will learn more about Earth science and the materials, such as minerals, that make up Earth.

Outsmarting IQ: The Emerging Science of Learnable Intelligence
by David PerkinsSince the turn of the century, the idea that intellectual capacity is fixed has been generally accepted. But increasingly, psychologists, educators, and others have come to challenge this premise. Outsmarting IQ reveals how earlier discoveries about IQ, together with recent research, show that intelligence is not genetically fixed. Intelligence can be taught. David Perkins, renowned for his research on thinking, learning, and education, identifies three distinct kinds of intelligence: the fixed neurological intelligence linked to IQ tests; the specialized knowledge and experience that individuals acquire over time; and reflective intelligence, the ability to become aware of one's mental habits and transcend limited patterns of thinking. Although all of these forms of intelligence function simultaneously, it is reflective intelligence, Perkins shows, that affords the best opportunity to amplify human intellect. This is the kind of intelligence that helps us to make wise personal decisions, solve challenging technical problems, find creative ideas, and learn complex topics in mathematics, the sciences, management, and other areas. It is the kind of intelligence most needed in an increasingly competitive and complicated world. Using his own pathbreaking research at Harvard and a rich array of other sources, Perkins paints a compelling picture of the skills and attitudes underlying learnable intelligence. He identifies typical pitfalls in multiple perspectives, and neglecting evidence. He reveals the underlying mechanisms of intelligent behavior. And he explores new frontiers in the development of intelligence in education, business, and other settings. This book will be of interest to people who have a personal or professional stake in increasing their intellectual skills, to those who look toward better education and a more thoughtful society, and not least to those who follow today's heated debates about the nature of intelligence.

Modern Chemistry
by Nicholas TzimopouloThe world we live in is complex and diverse. It contains the hardness of steel and the softness of cotton, the brilliance of diamonds and the blackness of coal, the heat of flames and the chill of ice, the tranquility of a slow moving river and the din of a busy city street. All the colors, textures, objects, animals, and plants that exist are too numerous to count. Yet scientists have learned that there are approximately 90 different ingredients, or elements, that make up all the material things we see and experience.
