Download or read book UXL Encyclopedia of Science written by Amy Hackney Blackwell and published by UXL. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a biome? How does rain form? Is a turtle a reptile or an amphibian? Can corn fuel a car? These questions and more can be answered using the U*X*L Encyclopedia of Science. This alphabetically organized ten-volume set opens up the entire world of science in clear, nontechnical language. Its comprehensive coverage of science topics taught in middle school science curricula and outlined in the Next Generation Science Standards makes it the perfect science reference solution for middle schools with limited budgets looking for a one stop resource. Entries from the previous edition of this title are also noted in appendix B of the English Language Arts Common Core Standards as being good examples of content that can be used to help teach the skills needed to read and digest non-fiction informational text. This resource is comprised of 800 entries that focus on a single topic, and range from 250 to 2,500 words. Many of these entries also feature helpful sidebar boxes that define key terms in that entry, as well as full-color images, charts and tables. There is also a secondary Table of Contents that organizes the articles under the scientific field that they fall under in order to aid instructors in easily identify useful content to aid in their teaching. This design and scope of coverage helped the previous edition of this title win Booklist s 20 Best Bets for Student Researchers in 2002. With the advent of the Next Generation Science Standards and the other changes in curricular focus of middle school science, it was time to update and expand the coverage of the U*X*L Encyclopedia of Science to better meet the needs of students and teachers. With this in mind, we have reviewed all of the entries from the previous edition, and updated them as necessary. We have also added 200 new entries to broaden the scope of this title to include more biographical entries on groundbreaking scientists and science topics currently in the news (i.e. genetically modified organisms).

Download or read book The Emperor of All Maladies written by Siddhartha Mukherjee and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-08-09 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and a documentary from Ken Burns on PBS, this New York Times bestseller is “an extraordinary achievement” (The New Yorker)—a magnificent, profoundly humane “biography” of cancer—from its first documented appearances thousands of years ago through the epic battles in the twentieth century to cure, control, and conquer it to a radical new understanding of its essence. Physician, researcher, and award-winning science writer, Siddhartha Mukherjee examines cancer with a cellular biologist’s precision, a historian’s perspective, and a biographer’s passion. The result is an astonishingly lucid and eloquent chronicle of a disease humans have lived with—and perished from—for more than five thousand years. The story of cancer is a story of human ingenuity, resilience, and perseverance, but also of hubris, paternalism, and misperception. Mukherjee recounts centuries of discoveries, setbacks, victories, and deaths, told through the eyes of his predecessors and peers, training their wits against an infinitely resourceful adversary that, just three decades ago, was thought to be easily vanquished in an all-out “war against cancer.” The book reads like a literary thriller with cancer as the protagonist. Riveting, urgent, and surprising, The Emperor of All Maladies provides a fascinating glimpse into the future of cancer treatments. It is an illuminating book that provides hope and clarity to those seeking to demystify cancer.
