While the Earth quelled the violence after the alien invasion, teams of engineers went to the moon to create ships capable of fighting back. After they cleared the dead, the Lunar Colony reopened as a technology hub to mine asteroids for materials to turn into starships. Calliope Morrigan arrived on the moon, completing designs for a ship. The military hated her small ship and backed Mattias, an engineer promising a ship so large it would require fusion reactors, a technology still beyond their reach. Arn Lasserman, head of nuclear engineering, allied with Calliope to create a stronger ship with engines he designed, cementing the enmity of her rivals. The violence against Calliope escalates as her ship nears completion. Rivals for control of resources, cluster time, and engines escalate as satellites range farther out into the solar system for metals to build their ships. A nest of aliens is discovered close enough to attack without warning. The pressure ramps as humanity’s ability to survive hangs in the balance. Calliope must find ways to make crucial alliances to survive. She pushes technology to its limits, but can she propel her humanity forward in time to fight the aliens?

Opal's Greenwood Oasis

"A beautiful and poignant reminder of the industry, joy and resilience of Black people in America."-Trey Ellis, Peabody and Emmy winning producer of King in the Wilderness andTrue Justice: Bryan Stevenson's Fight for Equality The year is 1921, and Opal Brown would like to show you around her beautiful neighborhood of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In both words and illustrations, this carefully researched and historically accurate book allows children to experience the joys and success of Greenwood, one of the most prosperous Black communities of the early 20th Century, an area Booker T. Washington dubbed America's Black Wall Street. Soon after the day narrated by Opal, Greenwood would be lost in the Tulsa Race Massacre, the worst act of racial violence in American history. As we approach the centennial of that tragic event, children have the opportunity through this book to learn and celebrate all that was built in Greenwood.

Six Septembers: Mathematics for the Humanist

  • Published: 2017

  • Publisher: Lulu.com

Scholars of all stripes are turning their attention to materials that represent enormous opportunities for the future of humanistic inquiry. The purpose of this book is to impart the concepts that underlie the mathematics they are likely to encounter and to unfold the notation in a way that removes that particular barrier completely. This book is a primer for developing the skills to enable humanist scholars to address complicated technical material with confidence. This book, to put it plainly, is concerned with the things that the author of a technical article knows, but isn't saying. Like any field, mathematics operates under a regime of shared assumptions, and it is our purpose to elucidate some of those assumptions for the newcomer. The individual subjects we tackle are (in order): logic and proof, discrete mathematics, abstract algebra, probability and statistics, calculus, and differential equations.

A fictitious novel inspired by true events in the life of the author, this is the story of a young woman whose father was American, of British descent, and her mother Greek. Born in the States in the aftermath of World War 2, Calliope was raised in Athens, following the divorce of her parents and the remarriage of her mother. At university in the U.S., CalliopeÕs life is thrown into disarray when she falls in love with a wealthy Jewish student, whose parents were Holocaust survivors. Drafted into the army, Daniel is tragically killed in Vietnam and the subsequent birth of their daughter out of wedlock dramatically alters the course of CalliopeÕs life. Helena, DanielÕs mother, brings up her granddaughter in the Judaic tradition and Calliope returns to Greece, never to disclose the existence of her child, even to her future Greek spouse. This is a poignant account of love and loss and, above all, the implacable forces of the inevitability of fate in CalliopeÕs life.
