This is the result of an ongoing project to collect and distribute the most obscure and rare words in the English language (such as aprosexia, diurnation, galeanthropy, nidor or symmetrophobia). It also contains a few words which do not have equivalent words in English. This version of the dictionary contains 2103 words, though it is constantly growing.

How can early years practitioners help young children to become not only numerate but also aspiring mathematicians who love numbers, shapes and mathematical comparisons?
The introduction of the Foundation Stage has led to practitioners seeking ways to teach maths that are more in line with the creative and playful ways young children learn other subjects.
Linda Pound draws on current thinking about children’s mathematical development to show how you can encourage and enhance the numeracy skills of any child in the early years by linking maths to everyday life situations and making it a playful and enjoyable cross-curricular activity.

Product Description
Peter Mitchell, winner of the 1978 Nobel Prize for chemistry for his chemiosmotic theory, was a highly original scientist who revolutionized our understanding of cellular metabolism and bioenergetics. This is the only full biography of Mitchell, and it should be of considerable interest to biophysicists, biochemists, and physicians and researchers focusing on metabolism, as well as historians of medicine and biology.
