A non-heated discussion on global warming and climate change
Interested in getting to the core of the reasons for the Earth's changing climate? Want an accurate reading on the science behind global warming? Here's your gauge! This easy-to-follow guide offers a temperate view of this hot topic. 
Global Warming &amp; Climate Change Demystified starts by looking at scientific data gathered from weather instruments, satellite telemetry, ice cores, and coral sections that reveal how the Earth's temperature is changing. The book goes on to examine the causes of climate change, including both natural processes and human-generated greenhouse gases. Finally, the consequences of global warming are discussed and a wide variety of viable solutions that can be implemented by individuals as well as society as a whole are presented. Complete with end-of-chapter quizzes and a final review to test your knowledge, this book will teach you the fundamentals of global warming and climate change in an unbiased and thorough manner.
This fast and easy guide offers:
<ul>
<li>A thorough review of scientific data</li>
<li>Details on the evidence of global warming worldwide</li>
<li>Information on the origin and impact of greenhouse gases</li>
<li>Explanations of alternatives to carbon-based energy sources</li>
<li>Suggestions for local and global solutions</li>
</ul>
Simple enough for a beginner, but challenging enough for an advanced student, Global Warming &amp; Climate Change Demystified is your shortcut to understanding this important and timely issue.

The Atlas of the Prenatal Mouse Brain is the latest addition to Academic Press' list of atlases for neuroscientists and neuroscience students. It fills an urgent need for a comprehensive atlas of the developing mouse brain for use in studies of both normal and abnormal development. High-quality photomicrographs of brain sections are depicted in sagittal, coronal, and horizontal planes for four gestational age groups. Each photomicrograph is accompanied by a fully labeled, precision-drawn diagram for easy identification of brain structures. Researchers and students using normal, transgenic, or mutant mouse preparations in developmental neurobiology, neurotoxicology, and biotechnology will welcome this meticulously assembled and accessible guide. Key Features and Benefits: * Presents 153 photomicrographs of serial brain sections * Represents four gestational ages (GD 12 and 14 embryos; GD 16 and 18 fetuses), each depicted in sigittal, coronal, and horizontal planes * Includes fully labeled diagrams identifying brain structures for each photomicrograph * Provides complete alphabetical lists of brain structures and abbreviations * Presents a full description of tissue preparation method * Large format, 8-1/2 x 11" pages in a sturdy hardcover case

Dear Reader, First of all, though it may be unbelievable as you begin to read this story, every single word about the bigotry and racism which plagued a small church and school in Oak Lawn, Illinois, is the absolute truth. Though some of the names and events have been altered to protect the innocent, every event occurred between 1950 and 2000, just as I have recorded them. Next, I want you to know this true story is not about the game of football, but rather it is the story of the character and moral strength of the men with whom I had the privilege to play the game of football. It is also the true account of some ordinary men and women who became extraordinary by choosing to follow the example of Jesus Christ. Most of all, I want you to know the real solution to ending the bigotry, hatred, and hypocrisy, which have been ripping our nation and world apart. Please read this book with an open mind and heart. The solution will probably not surprise you, but I hope it will inspire and challenge you to become part of the solution, which will change this old world for God's glory! In Christ, Jerry Silver 2 Corinthians 5:21
