Written with clarity and a dazzling intellectual passion, it is both a seminal work of modern geology and a compelling precursor to Darwinism, exploring the evidence for radical changes in climate and geography across the ages and speculating on the progressive development of life. A profound influence on Darwin, Principles of Geology also captured the imagination of contemporaries such as Melville, Emerson, Tennyson and George Eliot, transforming science with its depiction of the powerful forces that shape the natural world.

    a beautiful, kick-ass cop... an inevitable hot, action-packed mission... DJ was one of the biggest movie stars with die-hard fans all over the world. He was dubbed as Mr. Perfectionist for the effort he put in while preparing for a role. When his upcoming movie required him to play the lead role of a police officer, DJ readied himself for research. What he hadn't expected was his mentor to be a woman. A young, beautiful police officer who was not only immune to his charms and stardom, but also someone who made it quite clear she considered him nothing but trouble. Sheila Dasani was a no-nonsense police officer. When she was coerced into a 'special' mission to mentor an entitled and arrogant movie star, she made her displeasure very evident to him. But each time she gave DJ a hard time or snubbed his flirting, he didn't seem deterred. Soon she was torn between wanting to shoot the man and wanting to kiss him while he slowly tried to steal her heart. Excerpt: "You’re just so, so..." She was too flustered and couldn’t seem to find the right word. He was more than happy to help her. "So damn irresistible? I know, it's such a burden." A smirk covered his face. "Aargh... You are just so—" "Charming and handsome?" he supplied. He was enjoying this way too much. Sheila somehow pulled herself together and scowled. "I was going to say infuriating. But I should add cocky and big-headed too." He grinned. And that caused another damn flutter in her stomach. ***Now available on a special preorder price of 99 cents for a limited time only.

     For four hundred years, since early scientists discovered that the universe did not revolve around the earth, people have felt cut off-adrift in a meaningless cosmos. That is about to change. In their groundbreaking new book, The View from the Center of the Universe, Joel R. Primack, Ph.D., one of the world's leading cosmologists, and Nancy Ellen Abrams, a philosopher and writer, use recent advances in astronomy,physics, and cosmology to frame a compelling new theory of how to understand the universe and our role in it. While most of us think of the universe as empty space peppered with stars separated by vast distances, the truth, the authors argue, is far richer and more meaningful. For the first time in history, we know that the universe is more coherent and spiritually significant than anyone ever imagined and that our place in it is actually central to the expanding universe in important ways. According to Primack and Abrams, this new cosmology clarifies how the universe operates, what it's made of, how it may have originated, and how it is evolving. Even more surprising, these startling ideas spring from both cutting-edge science and the metaphors of ancient symbols. The result is a very human book that satisfies our fundamental need for order and meaning in our world and in our lives.

     Having had friends in high places, police must act quick to find the killer. But the judge also had lots of enemies in low places, and there is no shortage of suspects. Detective Inspector Robert Carroll is on the trail of the killer, aided by his rather intelligent assistant James Sayder who, much to the former’s consternation, is often one step ahead of the grumpy veteran detective. Detective Carroll’s efforts are confounded by Maggie, who is new in town and recently resurrected the defunct regional rag, The Crier. The newspaper seems to know all of Magnerstown’s bad news before the police, and Carroll wants to give the publisher the full arm of the law, despite finding her rather beguiling.
