"My success as a man of science, whatever this may have amounted to, has been determined, as far as I can judge, by complex and diversified mental qualities and conditions. Of these, the most important have been—the love of science—unbounded patience in long reflecting over any subject—industry in observing and collecting facts—and a fair share of invention as well as of common sense. With such moderate abilities as I possess, it is truly surprising that I should have influenced to a considerable extent the belief of scientific men on some important points." [more]

Money has its own importance in our life. The world considers money and wealth as one of the most important thing in life. People have more love for money because it is needed in everything they do. That is why there is fight all around the world to get more money, by ethical or unethical means. People have been bothered by the uneven distribution of money and wealth. In this dangerous era of Kaliyug, it is very difficult to remain ethical and honest in matters of money. In the presented book on the world of money as seen by Param Pujya Dadashri the Gnani Purush (the enlightened one), Dadashri has shared his view on money, charity, use of money. According to him, money is the reward of one’s merit karmas from one’s past life. Wealth comes your way when you give help to others, not otherwise. Wealth comes to those who have the desire to share. Lack of understanding of the science of money has perpetuated greed for money which leads to worldly life after life (avatars). [more]

Ernst Heinrich Philipp August Haeckel (German: [ˈhɛkəl]; 16 February 1834 – 9 August 1919) was a German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, professor, and artist who discovered, described and named thousands of new species, mapped a genealogical tree relating all life forms, and coined many terms in biology, including anthropogeny, ecology, phylum, phylogeny, stem cell, and the kingdom Protista. Haeckel promoted and popularised Charles Darwin's work in Germany and developed the controversial recapitulation theory ("ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny") claiming that an individual organism's biological development, or ontogeny, parallels and summarises its species' evolutionary development, or phylogeny.

Abstract The study focused on the effect of science writing Heuristic (SWH) on College of Education Chemistry students achievement in redox reactions. Two research questions and two hypothesis guided the study. The study utilized a quasi-experimental design having non-equivalent control group with a 2x2 factional design. The sample comprised one hundred and twenty-five second year chemistry students in two Colleges of Education in Anambra State. The instrument for data collection was the Achievement Test on Redox reactions (ATORR), and its reliability was established using Kinder Richardson formula 21(K-R 21). Mean and standard deviations were used to answer the research questions while the Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test the null hypothesis at P< 0.05. The findings showed that the Science Writing Heuristic was effective in enhancing achievement in Chemistry. The study recommended that teachers use the science writing heuristic which is a student centred inquiry laboratory instructional approach. [more]

Arabic science was probably the most advanced science in the world in the period between the eighth and fourteenth centuries. With the rapid expansion of Islam, Arabic scientists interacted across the world from Central Asia and India to Spain and North Africa. Although there were independent scientific achievements by the Arab, their scientific knowledge was built on earlier achievements, especially those of the Greeks, Iranians, Indians and ancient Egypt. Along with philosophy, the Arab did much to develop the idea of science and to clarify and elaborate its method. However, this book outlines and elucidates number of the Arabs’ contribution to the eventual rise of science. [more]

Eine Armee von Frauen... auf dem Marsch zur Stadt der Mutanten... Die Wagen krochen über die Landstraße auf die Vorgebirge zu. Gelegentlich sah ihnen ein Farmer nach. Nach und nach hatte es sich aufgeklärt, es wurde wärmer, die Regenmäntel verschwanden, und die Waffen wurden auf Feuchtigkeit untersucht. Schwerter klirrten an jeder Hüfte, Bogen und Köcher hingen auf jedem Rücken, ausgenommen die der Offiziere. Jeder Soldat trug in einer Brusttasche ein Fläschchen mit Gift für die Pfeile für den Fall einer Gefahr. Der Waffenwagen war mit Pfeilen, Bogen und Speeren mit metallenen Spitzen beladen. Die Offiziere und Soldaten der Kronkolonie West-Somerset zogen nach Westen und nahmen zum ersten Mal die Bergkette in Angriff, die ihnen bis jetzt den Weg ins Innere des Landes versperrt hatte. Zum ersten Mal kam ihnen zu Bewusstsein, dass es überhaupt ein Inneres gab. DIE STADT IM MEER von WILSON TUCKER erscheint als erster Band der Reihe GALAXIS SCIENCE FICTION aus dem Apex-Verlag, in der SF-Pulp-Klassiker als durchgesehene Neuausgaben wiederveröffentlicht werden.
