The Self-Evolving Cosmos

The Self-Evolving CosmosThis unique book offers an original way of thinking about two of the most significant problems confronting modern theoretical physics: the unification of the forces of nature and the evolution of the universe. In bringing out the inadequacies of the prevailing approach to these questions, the author demonstrates the need for more than just a new theory. The meanings of space and time themselves must be radically rethought, which requires a whole new philosophical foundation.

Faulkner's The Bear (Cliffs Notes)

Faulkner's The Bear (Cliffs Notes)"The Bear" by William Faulkner was an extreamly slow paced book. Many of the sentances ran on for two pages or so, and became incomprehensible. Faulkner seems to ramble on aimlessly, failing to reach distinct points. There were some good double meanings in the text, but if this is what you like, look at James Joyce. This was a failure.

Teaching Word MeaningsTeaching Word Meanings(Literacy Teaching Series)
Learning new words is foundational to success in school and life. Researchers have known for years that how many word meanings a student knows is one of the strongest predictors of how well that student will understand text and be able to communicate through writing. This book is about how children learn the meanings of new words (and the concepts they convey) and how teachers can be strategic in deciding which words to teach, how to teach them, and which words not to teach at all.
