We all have had a great time doing the experiments. All the information is fun and easy to read. It is a really fun way to teach and learn!             THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING: The Origin and Fate of the Universe35 reviews PHOENIX BOOKS, INC., 2006 For the rest of us Stephen Hawking struck gold with this one. For all of us who aren't cosmologists or astronomers, this book explains it all clearly. If you want to learn about our universe, this is a definite first read!             Gravity Is a Mystery (Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science 2)8 reviews Franklyn M. Branley Collins, 2007 nice book for 2nd grader A good book to read to kindergarden and 1st grader. Have to be a 2nd grader or higher to read on own.             Phases of Gravity20 reviews E-Reads, Ltd., 2004 A book I will read again and again I was truly amazed by the sparse beauty of the prose in Phases of Gravity. The reviewers who complain that "nothing happens" and that this is a lesser work by Simmons should stick to John Grisham or other formulaic authors who will satisfy their narrow expectations by delivering a predictable product. Simmons reveals his breadth as an author in this introspective work which is damn near perfect.             Gravity vs. the Girl19 reviews Forty-Ninth Street Publishers, 2009 Well written, thought provoking and so much fun to read I was not expecting much from this book figuring it would be a fluff piece. What a happy surprise to find such a well written and funny book. Any woman reading this book will relate to at least one, if not all of the ghosts that haunt the main character. The fact that she is clinically depressed (in pj's for an entire year) in the beginning of the book and slightly psychotic (i.e seeing ...             Defy Gravity 4CD: Healing Beyond the Bounds of Reason17 reviews Caroline Myss Hay House, 2009 Spiritual nourishment for my soul.... I always treasure anything that C Myss has done. I find her very inspiring & this series of lectures is right there on top. I haven't finished them yet but will soon. I'll be listening to them several times as it takes a long time for me to really process it all. Thank You Caroline!             Gravity: A Novel of Medical Suspense155 reviews Tess Gerritsen Pocket, 2000 A Possible Glimpse into a Frightening Future When an astronauts wife is in an auto accident and dies, NASA feels they have to bring her husband back from the space station and all of a sudden doctor/astronaut Emma Watson, who hadn't been scheduled to go up for months, is tapped to take his place. Unknown to the astronauts on the station, one of the experiments they're working on is being keenly watched by the Army. Knowing NASA would never ...             Gravity's Rainbow (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)319 reviews Thomas Pynchon Penguin Classics, 2006 Quick delivery, good service The book arrived promptly and in the condition it was promised to be in. Very nice.             Defy Gravity: Healing Beyond the Bounds of Reason27 reviews Caroline Myss Hay House, 2009 FABULOUS - a good place to begin or continue So far, this is the best! Defy Gravity is her most comprehensive, easily accessible work. In fact, if I only bought one book by Caroline Myss, this would be it. I have read and/or listened to all of Caroline's work (except for Entering the Castle which I now feel ready for). While I've learned from each, some of her material is easier to absorb than others - and the format makes a difference, ...             Mean Ol' Mr. Gravity8 reviews Mark Rippetoe The Aasgaard Company, 2009 Classic Rippetoe Funny and informative, classic writing by a true iconoclast. More people in this world should be subjected to Rippetoe's frank style.             Simon Bloom, the Gravity Keeper16 reviews Michael Reisman Puffin, 2009 One of the literature phenoms out in the world The following review is by my 10-year old son. Most of the time, new books don't usually strike the shelves with as big of an impact as this. It usually takes them a few months before the book is brought up to one of the greats. But the series beginning of Simon Bloom was a great Sci-Fi book, and people were attracted to it very quickly, apparently. The characters are great, the syndicated ...             The Everything Kids' Nature Book: Create Clouds, Make Waves, Defy Gravity and Much More! (Everything Kids ...2 reviews Kathiann M. Kowalski Adams Media, 2002 We love science and experiemnts so we naturally are enjoying this book. They have wonderful simple experiements that any child would enjoy. I also enjoy the time I get with my son and the bonding we have together during these activities.             What Gravity "IS" as explained via Einsteins Space Time concepts Sperry Publishing, 2008 Tony Sperry will use proven and accepted science principles to explain the results of his research ?The theory of Gravity explained via Einstein?s Space Time concepts? so the everyday person understands his work and discovery. The theory explains what Gravity ?IS? not just an effect or observations. It is a theory until validated by a recognized expert body such as NASA, CERN or major Universities. This validation is in progress but you will be ...             The Paladin Chronicles9 reviews, 2006 Fasten Your Seatbelts The cover of the book was certainly lure enough, the title interesting enough, but when I began reading, I knew instantly that I needed to hold on and be prepared for the "G" forces of plot, characterization, and speed of the science fiction I held before me.First at hand, the author developed the story extremely fast and then threw in bio-technical, military, and situational suspense and ...             String Theory For Dummies5 reviews Andrew Zimmerman Jones For Dummies, 2009 Lucidly written, comprehensive, and entertaining Andrew Zimmerman Jones, who is the Physics Guide for About.com, does a fabulous job of making the most complex scientific theory ever devised absolutely understandable. This is a first-rate introduction to the field. One would almost think it impossible to make something as recondite as sting theory clear to laypeople, but Jones pulls it off with wit and panache. Despite being part of the ...             How Do You Lift a Lion?2 reviews Robert E. Wells Albert Whitman & Company, 1996 Excellent Curriculum Tie-In This book easily and clearly illustrates the concept of pulley, screw and lever. Simple machines have never been so easy to explain. The cute animals and the banana party they have help the students in my 3rd grade class to understand force and work. Bravo!             The Story of Science: Newton at the Center8 reviews Joy Hakim Smithsonian Books, 2005 Another Great Book! I notice that one negative review has been repeated on multiple Joy Hakim books verbatim. I LIKE the sidebars and pictures. There is a ton of ART history and beautiful graphic design work in the books. Perhaps it is because my husband, son and I are all artists, but we particularly enjoyed the layout of the books. I felt a fusion of science with art in the presentation. The history is ...             Conferring with Readers: Supporting Each Student's Growth and Independence1 review Jennifer Serravallo, Gravity Goldberg Heinemann, 2007 Using it for high school students -- it's been amazing! I teach classes for struggling and reluctant readers at a suburban high school. The program is geared for younger students, so I have had to make a few adjustments. It's modeled after Writer's Workshop. We've been at it for a week, and the kids are actually reading. I don't know if it's the conferencing, or the chance to sit in soft chairs, or what. I just know. It works!              search for books challenge, chronicles, classics, concepts, conferring, deluxe, dummies, edition, einsteins, everything, experiments, explained, gravity, gravity-challenge, healing, independence, keeper, measure, medical, mystery, paladin, penguin, rainbow, readers, s-read-and-find-out, science, student, supporting, suspense, universe books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
