The games in this book offer a valuable source of activities, exercises and strategies for parents, group leaders, people planning parties, travellers, or anyone wishing to enliven any occasion they choose. These games are accessible to all, as they can be used with different levels of skill. The ability of many of our games to help people relax socially on both a one-to-one basis and with a group, encourages the use of games by teachers and group leaders. Accompanying notes are provided, outlining the value of the game in different developmental directions.

This is the first history of epidemics in South Africa, lethal episodes that significantly shaped this society over three centuries. Focusing on five devastating diseases between 1713 and today—smallpox, bubonic plague, “Spanish influenza,” polio, and HIV/AIDS—the book probes their origins, their catastrophic courses, and their consequences in both the short and long terms. The impacts of these epidemics ranged from the demographic—the “Spanish flu,” for instance, claimed the lives of 6 percent of the country’s population in six weeks—to the political, the social, the economic, the spiritual, the psychological, and the cultural. Moreover, as each of these epidemics occurred at crucial moments in the country’s history—such as during the South African War and World War I—the book also examines how these processes affected and were affected by the five epidemics. To those who read this book, history will not look the same again.

There he is in his splendor. What a guy! He’s the man who hopes to walk off with your daughter ... hold on a moment. Maybe he isn’t the best thing since sliced bread. Maybe he is trouble with a capital "T." Or maybe he is a great guy, but just not the great guy God intends for your little girl. How can you tell? In this fast-paced message, Doug Phillips explains that the greatest gift a dad will ever give away is his daughter. He examines the biblical qualifications for suitors and concludes that the Bible does not anticipate perfection, but minimal threshold requirements must be met. He examines the need for careful discrimination for determining if two are "equally yoked" and the doctrine of the "bride’s price." Doug also points out biblical examples of wickedness by fathers toward suitors and urges dads to act decisively, but with charity, respect, and love.

Inside DNA and Rna (Inside Modern Genetics)

Cells are the basic units of life, but within them are even smaller structures that act as the machinery that keeps us alive. This include the key molecules in cellular biology, deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid--better known as DNA and RNA. These teammates have essential jobs and they work together to make life possible. DNA stores and transfers genetic information, while RNA codes for amino acids and acts as a messenger in the making of proteins. This enlightening book erases much of the mystique surrounding the science of genetics, thanks to thorough explanations of DNA and RNA at work within the body. Numerous diagrams help make this potentially difficult topic more accessible.

Genetics can be a difficult subject for some. The terminology itself can be confusing, especially when it's presented with little background information on the subject. This volume, however, endeavors to simplify the complex yet fascinating world of genetics for teen readers. The text examines two of the greatest contributors to the field--Gregor Mendel and Charles Darwin. The contributions of these two visionary scientists was built upon by future scientists. Readers will be delighted to learn about the history of genetics and will use that to springboard into a finer understanding of the state of the field of genetics today. Diagrams and illustrations help readers make sense of a potentially difficult topic.

Inside the Basics of Genetics (Inside Modern Genetics)

Microbes are everywhere! They live on and under the ground. They live in all kinds of water on Earth, even around the hottest deep-sea vents. They even live on and inside your body! Since the advent of powerful microscopes, scientists have been studying our world's smallest denizens. Many people get scared just hearing the words "bacteria," "fungus," and "virus" because of the diseases they cause. However, scientists have discovered many beneficial microbes that actually help support all life on Earth. Geneticists have sequenced the genomes of numerous microbes, extending our knowledge of the organisms and how they affect our lives.
