Richard "Richie" Bryce Millstone, 14, is a rich kid living with his father in a small mansion in Jacksonville, Florida. He goes on a time travel adventure with several friends in a time machine built by his brilliant father, Clancy, who tricks the teens into using the machine. While trying to get back home, Richie is also searching for a legendary energy crystal that is thought to bring its owner almost unlimited power. The crystal is rumored to have fallen from outer space and is thought to be the size of an elephant. Clancy suspects the crystal got its power from passing through a neutron star. Richie must find the crystal to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands, one of which is an evil dragon. The crystal is also thought to have healing powers when immersed in water. Richie inadvertently discovers the secret of controlling the crystal, but the knowledge makes him a target to those wanting the crystal's power. This book is the first in a five-part series that chronicles a four-month time travel adventure. E. H. Allen is from Indiana and is a locomotive engineer. His hobbies include cooking, writing, and model railroading. Publisher's Website: http: //sbpra.com/EHAllen
Margery Mutters has just received a curious letter notifying her of her uncle's death. It comes in no ordinary envelope: piercing black eyes on the envelope cast a spell on her, and odd things start to happen. Driven by the enchanting eyes, she is soon on a journey to an island full of secrets: Rooke's Island. Margery sets off to explore the three levels of this bizarre land that she has just inherited, riding the super root coaster through the tunnels that run through the Lower Earth like a subway. Then, she plunges deep down through a shaft into the island's very core and enters the kingdom of the Inner Earth. From the peculiar to the creepy and downright terrifying, nothing makes sense, and nothing is familiar-but there's no turning back. When Margery meets the wise and magical owls who inhabit these Earths, their secrets become her own. She is invited to take her uncle's place on their Council of Owls, and she unintentionally becomes an integral part of their ancient prophecy. But even the slightest change in history could affect the owls' destiny for another thousand years

Ian Hamley is the world-leading scientist in the field of block copolymer research Presents the recent advances in the area, covering chemistry, physics and applications. Provides a broad coverage from synthesis to fundamental physics through to applications Examines the potential of block copolymers in nanotechnology as self-assembling soft materials
In the beginning, before Man and the insect Thranx became allies, in the days when the reptilian AAnn were just occasional raiders of the Thranx colony worlds, one young Thranx agricultural expert lived a life of quiet desperation. A dreamer in a world of sensible well adjusted socialised beings, Ryo buried himself in his work of reclaiming marshland until... Until he met the Aliens. Grotesque two legged creatures, unpleasingly soft skinned, gross in their appetites, alarming in their movements, all in all pretty revolting species, yet his curiosity overcame his queasiness and he befriended them. And discovered they were called Man.

The field of high-temperature superconductivity has encouraged an inter disciplinary approach to research. It has required significant cooperation and collaboration among researchers, each of whom has brought to it a rich variety of experience from many other fields. Recently, great improvements have been made in the quality of research. The subject has matured and been launched into the next stage through the resonance between science and technology. The current progress of materials processing and engineering in this field is analogous to that previously seen in the development of semiconductors. These include the appearance of materials taking the place of YBa2Cu307 owing to their improve...
