Book Description
Visualize the brilliance of the sky illuminating life-until a brief moment thrusts one onto a path not chosen. Mirroring an eclipse, the summer sun disappears behind a circle of darkness as a young man faces his foe of cancer. The hands of time cease their journey as questions go unanswered and prayers seem unheard. There is One who does hear, though-One who stands in that darkness. God knows that the eclipse will come and the world will be without light. His plans will unfold as the sun once again slips into view. It happened at the cross; it still happens today ... Gently tucked within these pages are stories created from such a time. For those who mourn, those who seek, those who feel the sun will never again shine, Beyond the Eclipse beckons.

Beyond the Galaxy
Author: Ethan Siegel
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 981466717X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 387
Book Description
"A look up at the night sky reveals a treasury of wonders. Even to the naked eye, the Moon, stars, planets, the Milky Way and even a few star clusters and nebulae illuminate the heavens. For millennia, humans struggled to make sense of what's out there in the Universe, from all we can see to that which lies beyond the limits of even our most powerful telescopes. Beyond the Galaxy traces our journey from an ancient, Earth-centered Universe all the way to our modern, 21st century understanding of the cosmos. Touching on not only what we know but also how we know it, Ethan Siegel takes us to the very frontiers of modern astrophysics and cosmology, from the birth of our Universe to its ultimate fate, and everything in between."--

Beyond Borders
Author: Néstor Herran
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443811475
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
How does scientific knowledge circulate? Does scientific communication shape the making of science? Is the making of science a national endeavour or does it have an international or transnational dimension? Are teaching and research equally relevant in this endeavour? How can history of science react to the challenges posed by the changing practices of science in historical context? Beyond Borders is a book generated at the heart of these fundamental questions. In the last decades, the history of science has attained a high degree of disciplinary maturity and sophistication. However, perception of disciplinary crisis is apparent behind calls for the search of new “big pictures” and their implementation in teaching and communicating the history of science to wider audiences. Temporal and narrative fragmentation are seen as major drawbacks hindering the development of the discipline. In addition, national, linguistic and methodological division is increasingly afflicting its practice. Like other areas in the humanities, and in contrast to the sciences, the history of science has nowadays a pronounced local character which clearly constrains its intellectual output. Challenging this state of affairs is a major aim of this book, which argues for a resolute call for intellectual and methodological pluralism and internationalism. Through a broad diversity of subjects, periods, and geographies, covering from studies of sixteenth-century astrological texts to contextual analysis of twentieth-century X-ray spectroscopy, this collection of papers and historiographical essays offers a fresh overview of the field and its major questions. Beyond Borders revisits five major topics in history of science, namely the early modern map of knowledge, pedagogy and science, science popularization, science and the nation and the geography of scientific centres and peripheries. Engaging with a broad diversity of historiographical and methodological approaches in an international perspective, Beyond Borders is a rich and plural manifesto contributing to the reflective appraisal of history of science as a discipline.

Pages : 91
Book Description
"Hands-on learning is 'learning by doing'. It requires students to become active participants as they investigate, experiment, design, create, role-play, cook and more, gaining an understanding of essential scientific concepts from these experiments. Hands-on learning motivates students and engages them in their learning. Instead of being told 'why' something occurs, they see it for themselves, directly observing science in action." -- P. iii.
