Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "But it's not nowhere""it's our Mars." Adam Jones hits the ground with a jarring thud. He springs to his feet and peers back along the country road down which he has sped. The black van with the dark windows is still coming on. Adam scoops up his bike and flees for the safety of his house. What a crazy last day of school: first that rumor about NASA discovering a strange structure on Mars and now this van! But these events are merely the thinning of a mist that has confused Adam's understanding of his family. A wind is coming that will sweep away his petty dissatisfactions and launch him on a life-changing journey. Later that evening, Adam is stunned to learn his family is hiding a great secret. Adam's father and mother invite him to travel to the Red Planet to help them hide an extraordinary family treasure and the story it would tell. To accomplish their mission, the Joneses must brave the unforgiving laws of nature and escape the clever plans of a ruthless organization bent on terminating their undertaking by any means possible. During this science adventure, Adam experiences God's mercy as personal humiliation and close encounters with death transform him from bystander to valued rocket-ship crew member. He also discovers that he is a special object of his family's care and the very symbol of what they have achieved.

Book Synopsis The Big Book of Mars by : Marc Hartzman
Download or read book The Big Book of Mars written by Marc Hartzman and published by Quirk Books. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most comprehensive look at our relationship with Mars—yesterday, today, and tomorrow—through history, archival images, pop culture ephemera, and interviews with NASA scientists Mars has been a source of fascination and speculation ever since the ancient Egyptians observed its blood-red hue and named it for their god of war and plague. But it wasn't until the 19th century when “canals” were observed on the surface of the Red Planet, suggesting the presence of water, that scientists, novelists, filmmakers, and entrepreneurs became obsessed with the question of whether there’s life on Mars. Since then, Mars has fully invaded pop culture, inspiring its own day of the week (Tuesday), an iconic Looney Tunes character, and many novels and movies, from Ray Bradbury’s Martian Chronicles to The Martian. It’s this cultural familiarity with the fourth planet that continues to inspire advancements in Mars exploration, from NASA’s launch of the Mars rover Perseverance to Elon Musk’s quest to launch a manned mission to Mars through SpaceX by 2024. Perhaps, one day, we’ll be able to answer the questions our ancestors asked when they looked up at the night sky millennia ago.

Book Synopsis Orphans of the Stars by : Dan Boulet
Download or read book Orphans of the Stars written by Dan Boulet and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-05-12 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great black cube glides just above the tenuous upper atmosphere of a planet blessed with green lands surrounded by blue oceans. This cube is blacker than black. It resembles a moving hole. But it is not empty. Within this wonderful vessel is a visitor from a distant star, Lord Bright-wing, explorer of many worlds and representative of the People, a civilization hundreds of thousands of years old. Bright-wing controls the awesome power of his craft through his servant, an artificial intelligence of vast intellect. But advanced and powerful as creature and machine might be, Bright-wing will shortly face a challenge none of the People had ever faced and indeed had taken every precaution to avoid. But the unintended consequences of Lord Bright-wing’s actions trickle down through millennia to bring into existence an evil organization calling itself Wings between the Worlds. This group of cold-hearted men and women seeks to use the almost unlimited power that has fallen into its hands to dominate the world. But just as the leadership of Wings between the Worlds is on the verge of executing their well-laid plans, one of their own orphan slaves, a young girl, meets Adam Jones, a boy from a well-respected spacefaring family. And together they accept a lonely mission to free the remaining orphans and travel the solar system to destroy the power of Wings. And it must be done in secret; not even Adam’s parents can know. If these two young people fail, they will simply disappear, never to be seen or heard from again, their love and sacrifice wasted and unappreciated.

Book Synopsis Cities and Regions in Crisis by : Martin Jones
Download or read book Cities and Regions in Crisis written by Martin Jones and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a new geographical political economy approach to our understanding of regional and local economic development in Western Europe over the last twenty years. It suggests that governance failure is occurring at a variety of spatial scales and an ‘impedimenta state’ is emerging. This is derived from the state responding to state intervention and economic development that has become irrational, ambivalent and disoriented. The book blends theoretical approaches to crisis and contradiction theory with empirical examples from cities and regions.
Book Synopsis What Would Martin Say? by : Clarence B. Jones
Download or read book What Would Martin Say? written by Clarence B. Jones and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “What Would Martin Say? about the pressing issues of our time is a bold question to ask. To presume to know the answer is even bolder. Clarence Jones is one of the few who possesses the moral authority necessary to even attempt such a task. One that he more than accomplishes with a compelling candor and an uncommon grace and dignity.” —Tavis Smiley If anyone would have insight into Martin's thoughts and opinions, it would be Clarence B. Jones, King's personal lawyer and one of his closest principal advisers and confidants. Removing the mythic distance of forty years' time to reveal the flesh-and-blood man he knew as his friend, Jones ponders what the outspoken civil rights leader would say about the serious issues that bedevil contemporary America: Islamic terrorism and the war in Iraq, reparations for slavery, anti-Semitism, affirmative action, illegal immigration, and the state of African American leadership.

Book Synopsis Asian Security and the Rise of China by : David Martin Jones
Download or read book Asian Security and the Rise of China written by David Martin Jones and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÔKhoo, Jones, and Smith have pulled off a remarkable balancing act, crafting a well-grounded and multifaceted survey of ChinaÕs rise in the context of Asian security. In a field which is often marked more by scholarly effervescence than substance, the authors provide a refreshingly detailed portrait of the last two decades, and fair-mindedly point out evidence which might support both extremes of the debates they challenge with their own Òthird wayÓ.Õ Ð Frank ÒScottÓ Douglas, US Naval War College, US ÔCongratulations to the authors for a clearly argued and comprehensive treatment of ChinaÕs post Cold War rise and what it means for existing and future dynamics of the Asia-Pacific region. Effectively employing realist theory in a fair-minded treatment of regional developments, the volume shows how and why power realities are more important than non-material factors in determining the regionÕs trajectory and thereby demonstrates that ChinaÕs ascendance in Asia remains complicated and conflicted.Õ Ð Robert Sutter, George Washington University, US East Asia is without question a region of huge economic, political and security significance. Asian Security and the Rise of China offers a comprehensive overview and assessment of the international politics of the Asia-Pacific since the end of the Cold War, seeking to address the overarching question of how we can most convincingly explain the central dynamics of AsiaÕs international relations. Via a realist perspective on the dynamics and frictions associated with accommodating the rise of powerful states, this timely book addresses the core issue in contemporary Asian politics: the rise of China. The contributors expertly evaluate ChinaÕs rise and the impact it has had on the dynamics of regional relations in North East and South East Asia. It demonstrates that ChinaÕs economic development and its regional and international ambition increasingly conflict with the existing consensus-based regional arrangements like the ASEAN Regional Forum and the East Asian Summit mechanism. As a consequence, smaller states in the region increasingly resort to hedging and balancing strategies in an attempt to mitigate Chinese hegemony. This leaves the region in the grip of a complex and potentially destabilizing security dilemma. The book offers a compelling analysis of the problem that China presents for its region that will enlighten undergraduate students of regional political studies and international relations. Postgraduate and MasterÕs students on courses addressing East and South East Asia will also find plenty of information in this invaluable book.
