Cengage Learning'

An Introduction to Physical Science presents a survey of the physical sciences--physics, chemistry, astronomy, meteorology, and geology--for non-science majors. Topics are treated both descriptively and quantitatively, providing flexibility for instructors who wish to emphasize a highly descriptive approach, a highly quantitative approach, or anything in between. Time-tested pedagogical tools address the needs of a range of learning styles: concepts to be treated mathematically are consistently introduced from three perspectives (definition, word equation, symbol notation); Confidence Exercises follow in-text Examples, giving students an opportunity for immediate practice and reinforcement; and updated Spotlight On features use figures, photos, or flowcharts to visually summarize important topics. The Twelfth Edition includes new content and features that help students better visualize concepts, master basic math, and practice problem solving. In response to instructor feedback, new end-of-chapter problems appear throughout the text and sections on astronomy have been updated. A dynamic technology package combines course management and testing resources as well as online support for students. The Twelfth Edition is available in both a hardcover version and, at a reduced price, a paperback version, giving students flexible options to meet their needs.

An Introduction to Physical Sciences

Secret of Centrix

Ynara Diri has been searching for her son, Skaya for five years, having lost him to a disreputable batch of gamblers called the Bollen in an impossible scenario.  Ynara has struggled within herself to conquer her own weakness to become the strength she will need to get him back.  Now, on the verge of finding him, she gains the aid of a stranger who seems eager to help her at a duplicitous cost.  The final piece she needs to get her son is an old friend who has supported her during her struggle to reunite her family.              Danuno, the Bollen head of an illegal mining colony on a floating deserted rock, called Centrix has been searching for years to find an elusive prize to make him ultimate authority in the sector.  With the use of slaves, he has been digging away beneath the surface of Centrix in hopes that he has finally located the source of power.              Skaya's memories of his mother were deliberately damaged and deteriorated over the last five years as he finds himself maturing into manhood.  The Bollen that have held him captive have done everything they can to make sure that he remains a slave to their mining community, but their efforts would not be enough.  The biological modifications they made to Skaya when he was brought to Centrix would be the very undoing of the captivity to which Skaya belonged.
