These books offer remarkable insights into the ideas out of which our present ways of thinking emerged and without which they cannot fully be understood.
Hugh Marlow fought for his country before ending up on the wrong side of the law. After five hard years inside, thinking only of the fortune he'd stashed away before being thrown behind bars, he was ready to fight anyone who stood in the way of what was his. Rough justice was still the only thing he understood. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't the only one. Now the worst of London's gangsters and criminals are after Marlowe and his hidden bounty.
Most people certainly take light for granted. But understanding the basic nature of light can open up a whole new world! Students learn how light travels in waves as well as how those waves behave. Also, children discover the connection between light and color. With real-life demonstrations and a hands-on activity, these concepts are more easily understood.
