After the Resh's defeat, he's thrust into a role as a sub-commander in the Seressin Empire, under the watchful eye of the formidable Commander Ziron. Yet, the world he was born in is gone, leaving him struggling to make sense of it all. Setting out on a trip to Grrlock with his best friend, Rreengrol, to visit family, Diego anticipates a relaxing vacation. But when they're unexpectedly abducted by toad-like Resh forces and taken to the dreaded Resh system, his reality takes a dark twist. Forced into a team of assassins with a chilling mission—kill Commander Ziron and the Supreme Commander—Diego has no way to warn his mentor or stop the impending disaster. He must have confidence in his own abilities and those of his otter-like friends, the Turengen, if they are to prevent the assassins' deadly plot. Then, Diego must face a deadly decision: return to the nightmarish world of Resh. His mission—to rescue Seressin hostages—is a daring, make-or-break gamble testing his courage to the limit. In this gripping sequel to Moon Crusher, Diego's journey unfolds against a backdrop of unrelenting suspense and self-discovery. Will he rise as the hero Seressin needs, or will the shadows of his past consume him? Join Diego on an epic odyssey through space where destiny and courage collide, and the fate of an entire empire hangs in the balance.

Download or read book The Big Splat or How Our Moon Came to Be written by Dana Mackenzie and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2008-05-02 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first popular book to explain the dramatic theory behind the Moon's genesis This lively science history relates one of the great recent breakthroughs in planetary astronomy-a successful theory of the birth of the Moon. Science journalist Dana Mackenzie traces the evolution of this theory, one little known outside the scientific community: a Mars-sized object collided with Earth some four billion years ago, and the remains of this colossal explosion-the Big Splat-came together to form the Moon. Beginning with notions of the Moon in ancient cosmologies, Mackenzie relates the fascinating history of lunar speculation, moving from Galileo and Kepler to George Darwin (son of Charles) and the Apollo astronauts, whose trips to the lunar surface helped solve one of the most enigmatic mysteries of the night sky: who hung the Moon? Dana Mackenzie (Santa Cruz, CA) is a freelance science journalist. His articles have appeared in such magazines as Science, Discover, American Scientist, The Sciences, and New Scientist.
Download or read book Green Revolution written by Stanley A. Freed and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the mid-1960s, rural India passed through a period of rapid technological and social change known as the Green Revolution. It was the transition from basically subsistence peasant farming at a low technological level to expensive commercial farming with modern technology. Five major sociotechnological innovations were basic to the Green Revolution: the development of high-yielding varieties of food grains, especially wheat and rice; land consolidation; private tubewell irrigation; mechanization; and the use of factory fertilizers and pesticides. New sources of energy, electricity and the internal combustion engine, which replaced bullock power, and the financial infrastructure that enabled farmers to buy the new equipment--tractors, tubewells, and threshers--represented a fundamental change. If the Green Revolution is taken in its broadest sense to include much higher educational levels and new employment opportunities in modern occupations, then the economy of Shanti Nagar, whose principal component is still agriculture, has been transformed. This work is the 11th in a series of monographs, all published in the Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, devoted to the description and analysis of life in Shanti Nagar (a pseudonym), a village in the Union Territory of Delhi. Our research is based on holistic fieldwork carried out in the village in 1957-1959 and 1977-1978, dates which make it possible to compare the village just before and after the Green Revolution. The most visible results of the Green Revolution were substantially increased production of the new high-yielding varieties of grain and increased prosperity for farmers, and indeed for almost all villagers. Because of the Green Revolution and associated developments in education and employment, the villagers of Shanti Nagar now lead a modern style of rural life supplemented by urban employment. These changes have also had the effect of enhancing equality, one of India's greatly desired social goals"--T.p. verso.
