Training a powerful lens on the microscopic wonders of the universe, hundreds of photos, both exquisite and strange, accompany this startling exposй of a secret world invisibly evolving around us for billions of years.

Silver Winner of the 2021 IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award for Nature & Environment

Microfossils--the most abundant, ancient, and easily accessible of Earths fossils--are also the most important. Their ubiquity is such that every person on the planet touches or uses them every single day, and yet few of us even realize they exist. Despite being the sole witnesses of 3 billion years of evolutionary history, these diminutive fungi, plants, and animals are themselves invisible to the eye. In this microscopic bestiary, prominent geologist, paleontologist, and scholar Patrick De Wever lifts the veil on their mysterious world.

Marvelous Microfossils lays out the basics of what microfossils are before moving on to the history, tools, and methods of investigating them. The author describes the applications of their study, both practical and sublime. Microfossils, he explains, are indispensable in age-dating and paleoenvironmental reconstruction, which guide enormous investments in the oil, gas, and mining industries. De Wever shares surprising stories of how microfossils made the Chunnel possible and have unmasked perpetrators in jewel heists and murder investigations. He also reveals that microfossils created the stunning white cliffs on the north coast of France, graced the tables of the Medici family, and represent our best hope for discovering life on the exoplanets at the outer edges of our solar system.

Describing the many strange and beautiful groups of known microfossils in detail, De Wever combines lyrical prose with hundreds of arresting color images, from delicate nineteenth-century drawings of phytoplankton drafted by Ernst Haeckel, the father of ecology, to cutting-edge scanning electron microscope photographs of billion-year-old acritarchs. De Wevers ode to the invisible world around us allows readers to peer directly into a minute microcosm with massive implications, even traversing eons to show us how life arose on Earth.

Описание: In this definitive work, Ernest Glen Wever establishes the evolutionary importance of the reptile ear as the origin of the higher type of auditory apparatus shared by man and the mammals. Tracing the development of the auditory receptor in the living reptiles, he examines the use of a variety of mechanisms and principles of action by that receptor.

Описание:

Abortion, contrary to society's view, is not a no-harm done "fix-it" plan for unwanted pregnancies. Decades after its legality was decided, millions of women have suffered emotional and psychological harm resulting from choosing abortion over bringing a new life into the world. Pro-choice and prolife debates continue, but it's the women who've made this choice only to be burdened by the gravity of their action who suffer, and many more follow in their footsteps every day. Mercy's Gate by Arlene Herndon is more than a fictional story of four women who choose to have an abortion at the same clinic, by the same doctor, on the same day; it's a calling out to women who have experienced the hurt of choosing abortion; it's a calling out to women who are considering abortion now to reconsider. Overall, it's a powerful story of God's redemptive power, forgiveness, and restoration.


How to Bust the Worry Warts: A Book for Children Who Worry Too Much and for Those Who Want to Help Them

Описание:

How to Bust the Worry Warts was written by Chris Wever and drawn by Neil Phillips. Both Chris and Neil are consultant psychiatrists. They created this book to help children who experience unnecessary, exaggerated and terrifying worries. The book features Worry Warts who float around making mischief by pushing useless, painful and ridiculous worries into the minds of children. This causes children to suffer and lose confidence.

Every idea in the book is illustrated with a cartoon. Cartoons help children understand what is happening and that helps recovery. They also encourage children to use the power of their own imaginations to invent ways of chasing the Worry Warts away. One of the main aims of the book is to show children how to sort real worries from Worry Wart worries. In the book this is done by a cartoon style "worry checking machine." The machine tips Worry Wart worries down the drain and keeps the real worries to be discussed with a trusted adult.

The "Fearsome Hound of Panic" is the Worry Warts' secret weapon. It appears late in the book and, although it is a terrifying beast, a child can learn how to turn it into just a whining "Panic Puppy" by applying the relaxation, mindfulness and imagery techniques learned from a counsellor. On the last page, two Worry Warts are shown sneaking back and hiding behind a rock. However, a boy uses his "Worry Wart Detector" to find them. He busts the Worry Warts early and gets rid of them before they can settle in again.

Many ideas in the book are quite complex and most children should read it with the help of an adult. Adult involvement serves to start a useful conversation about excessive worries and a parent, teacher or counsellor can then help solve real worries and encourage a more open and adventurous approach to life.

Описание:

There was no cure. There were no more treatments or medications that could help. No way of reversing the years of lung damage, scarring, infection, or inflammation. Both of my lungs were no longer able to adequately provide oxygen to the cells in my body. Carbon dioxide was building up in my bloodstream to a dangerous level. The excessive, forceful coughing was popping holes in my lungs and causing them to deflate. I could no longer live with my lungs. It was time for double lung transplant, the last resort."

Born with Cystic Fibrosis, a chronic, progressive, life-threatening illness, Kelly was told she would only live to 18 years old. She surpassed the statistic, and at age 29, was officially placed on the national wait list for a double lung transplant. Doctors said there was a 1% chance of finding a donor match for this life-saving transplant. Kelly's wait for her new lungs was full of hardships and resilience, but through it all, she found her faith and whole new life.

Breathe Deep is a true, inspirational story about beating the odds. Life is full of trials and tribulations, and Breathe Deep will inspire you to make the most out of your life, strengthen your faith, and have HOPE.

THE LORD WILL FIGHT FOR YOU, AND YOU NEED ONLY TO BE STILL. Exodus 14:14
