Greyson Hill expected his senior year at Pinesport High to be the best . His best friend, Trak, was back from spending his summer at Farragut Academy, a special school catering to the elite LECTROLS society. Genetically improved, LECTROLS are physically enhanced humans who are stronger, faster, and far more aggressive than their normal counterparts. Their physical prowess ensures their dominance in school and in society. Trak and Greyson had always been as close as brothers and they never let anything come between them. That might change if Trak was aware of Greysons unrequited love towards Traks girlfriend, the beautiful Leara. When Greyson stumbled across the deadly PROJECT REDSTAR, he discovers there is another race of enhanced humans who chose to remain hidden. Greyson realizes that a race war is brewing and he has to stop it before it erupts. But in order to do so, he must betray those he cares about the most.

Charles and Stacey Matthews

This book describes the mathematical underpinnings of algorithms used for molecular dynamics simulation, including both deterministic and stochastic numerical methods. Molecular dynamics is one of the most versatile and powerful methods of modern computational science and engineering and is used widely in chemistry, physics, materials science and biology. Understanding the foundations of numerical methods means knowing how to select the best one for a given problem (from the wide range of techniques on offer) and how to create new, efficient methods to address particular challenges as they arise in complex applications. 
Aimed at a broad audience, this book presents the basic theory of Hamiltonian mechanics and stochastic differential equations, as well as topics including symplectic numerical methods, the handling of constraints and rigid bodies, the efficient treatment of Langevin dynamics, thermostats to control the molecular ensemble, multiple time-stepping, and the dissipative particle dynamics method.
