“A sweet, heart-squeezing story!” ― Jaleigh Johnson, New York Times bestselling author of The Mark of the DragonflyWhen seventh grade enemies research a missing set of jewels for a class project, they realize that the answers to the unsolved case might be much closer to home than they thought in this fun-filled mystery “as satisfying as hot soup on a cold day” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).If you told Sloane Osburn and Amelia Miller-Poe that they’d be hiding in their town cemetery from an evil mastermind, they would have been hard-pressed to believe you. If you also told them that person was intent on beating them to a cache of long-lost jewels using nothing more than a slingshot and wicked aim, they’d have been sure you got your facts wrong. Finally, if you told them they’d be doing all of this as friends…well, they would have been sure you needed medical attention.Whether through serendipity (really, really good luck) or zemblanity (really, really bad luck), someone tricked their

Focusing on Albert Sanguinetti from his early life to his retirement from the legal sector, including his tenures in Gibraltar, Kenya, and Hong Kong, this biography provides an in-depth view of the life of a prominent figure in the legal field in the late twentieth century. It is written from an objective, external viewpoint and paints a colourful and lively picture of Sanguinetti in a voice that could almost be his own. Using Sanguinetti’s life experiences, the biographer touches on various historical events, including the Mau Mau revolution in Kenya and the 1957 riots in Hong Kong, and details the social and political problems of the times, such as lingering colonialism, class structure issues, and human rights violations, among others. These glimpses of history through Sanguinetti’s eyes are accessible, thought-provoking, and truly representative of the man himself.Offering a well-rounded image of the eccentric subject, this book fulfils Sanguinetti’s common response to questions ab

Wishy Washy takes your young child on an adventure as they learn new words through life-like paintings, bright colors, and an animal friend who guides them along the way.

Wishy Washy also provides tips for parents to help them encourage verbal approximations (acceptable substitutes). Plus, this engaging book comes with an attached wooden paintbrush and faux paint palette--a tactile, interactive tool that will provide your child with multi-sensory learning and help them better retain information on each page.

◎健康，有了生物訊息才完整──訊息、能量、物質完美金三角。◎鑰方，領先全球的生物訊息技術──落實永續健康生活。◎兩位學者將多年合作研究的生物訊息，用容易理解又不失專業的方式介紹給社會大眾。整合中醫學、西醫學、自然醫學、功能醫學、生物能／生物訊息醫學……的理論及方法」的「整合醫學」為手段，來達到健康促進、「人人　知健康　行健康　得健康」的目標及願景！●甚麼是生物訊息？生物訊息是一個既陌生又親切的科學，理論非常艱深，來自於量子自旋場（Quantum Spin Field）的效應，但是宇宙萬事萬物都有訊息場，每天生活所見所感幾乎都跟訊息場有關。研究生物訊息這個領域需要進入新的視野及思維的角度，不能再眼見為憑，應該開拓到比物質更高階的訊息頻率的領域，探究不可知、未曾知的事物及狀態。生物訊息技術則是著眼於研究生物間溝通訊息的正確與否，並加以導正的一種純科學的技術。生物訊息技術記載訊息的方法是採取自旋（spin）來記載訊息。●一本生物訊息的科普書有別於一般過於玄虛艱深的哲學思維，把看不到的未知領域當作是非科學看待，本書直接碰觸這些未知的領域，在科學理論未完備的過去，這些確實是未知的，但在量子力學已經逐漸完備的當下，一些現象已經可以清楚的套用量子力學的效應來解釋。對於一個既陌生又親切的科學，如何使用清晰的理論與驗證說明出來，確實很難，不過在兩位作者的合作之下，李順來著重於理論基礎的論述，陳冬漢著重於驗證與經驗的論述，讓生物訊息得以在符合科學驗證、容易理解的範圍內，讓大家清晰的了解生物訊息的特性與內涵。讀者閱讀本書，能從理論和實用面得到對訊息更清楚的認知，並能以客觀科學的角度來認識訊息，補足以往只有物質、能量的世界缺口，清楚的看見與面對完整的生命架構。「兩位作者將他們二十幾年來在生物訊息領域默默辛苦努力與耕耘的過程、經驗及心得，用儘可能嚴謹、科學實證的態度，深入淺出、引經據典，有所說有所不說……對生物訊息較陌生的初學者，是很好的入門書；對已入門的同道，可由此書增加許多理論基礎及發展、運用的方向。」──林承箕醫師「我非常高興本書的兩位作者能夠以相對客觀理性的華人科技業者角度，來深入討論『生物信息學』的物理與生理信息理論與現象。」──樓宇偉博士
