Book Description
"Excellent and informative. A well-written, fascinating look at day-to-day life in a nation on the brink of collapse" - Kirkus Reviews "B.A.K. Sim's eloquent descriptive writing draws you into a thrilling yet unnerving and astonishing journey in Zimbabwe during the financial collapse, rampant hyper-inflation and dependence on the black market and a .38 caliber for survival, ultimately ending with a harrowing escape." - Phyllis Campanello, C.H.A., San Francisco, CA "Beautifully written - an important contribution to history and politics. A powerful saga, told with humour and compassion, capturing common life during troubled times, bringing out the best and the worst in people." - Margaret Spark, University Administrator/Editor, Victoria, BC "A wonderful book creating a vivid picture of the downfall of a beautiful country, and how this has resulted in a catastrophic lack of food, law and order. Well worth reading." - A. Crawshaw, MA, Cand.phil., Copenhagen University, Denmark Bodie and Clyde return to Zimbabwe in 2007, but the good times have departed. The country has the highest inflation in the world; people resort to suitcases and wheelbarrows, just to carry the money. Isolated from the rest of the world, they experience shortages of food, water and electricity, with endless line-ups for gas if any is available. The banking system is collapsing and only by trading on the black market are people able to feed themselves. To survive, Clyde's factory converts to producing ox-drawn carts. Governing party backed violence is worsening as a general election is called. Against all odds, many of the people come together across racial, religious and cultural lines. This is a story about how people react in times of extreme adversity. It is about survival, love, imagination and willpower. DOUBLE RAINBOW AT FULL MOON is also a wake-up call to the Western world about the consequences of economic mismanagement - a real human and economic thriller!

Book Description
This second book in a four-book series exploring the elements, Wonders of Nature: Natural Phenomena in Science and Myth, looks at the wonder of air from both a scientific and mythical perspective. Intended for teachers and librarians to use with students in intermediate and middle school grades, the book looks at natural phenomena that occurs in the air around us—such as rainbows, snow, tornadoes, lightning, and thunder—through ancient myth, and details the explanations of modern-day science. With this interdisciplinary approach, students will be encouraged to appreciate the magic in both myth and science, and to understand the commonality of human experience with nature over time. Each book contains eight myths, each from a different culture, and accompanying scientific explanation to use with students. Included are bibliographies; recommended Web sites; ideas for field trips, student projects, discussion, and activities; and illustrations and diagrams that will enhance student interest. Grades 4-8.

Book Description
For readers curious about life in assisted living facilities comes a collection of essays that break stereotypes and distill vital lessons from people in later life. A thoughtful and poignant meditation on aging and mortality, How to Age Gracefully tells the story of author Barbara Scoblic’s life inside an assisted living facility through essays and conversations. When she entered an assisted living facility in Bethesda, Maryland, at age eighty-three, journalist and memoirist Scoblic wasn’t expecting to find such rich subject matter. But the residents and staff surprised her with their kindness, wisdom, and sometimes wicked sense of humor—and inspired her to begin taking notes on their conversations, both those she was a part of and those she overheard. The pieces in this collection, which consider grief, the occasional indignities of living in an aging body, the importance of friendship and community, and the surprising ways we can grow more creative as we grow older, are born of Scoblic’s observations and experiences of life in assisted living. The resulting work is essential for anyone entering the later years of life—or anyone who intends to.

Book Description
Since the dawn of time, electromagnetic energy has permeated through the universe, surrounding and interacting with everything it touches, illuminating, destroying and giving life. The colourful section of the electromagnetic spectrum we see in the form of visible light, rainbows and other phenomena is tiny when compared to its vast entirety. Using many parts of the electromagnetic spectrum have become common everyday occurrence for the majority of people on Earth, as it's been integrated into our lives in ways that we don't even think twice about it. This book illuminates many parts of the electromagnetic spectrum and its effects, the endless ways we have harnessed its energy, and how we interact and live with its influence. (less)

Book Description
Modernization and conversion to world religions are threatening the survival of traditional belief systems, leaving behind only mysterious traces of their existence. This book, based upon extensive research conducted over a period of nearly four decades, brings scientific rigor to one of the questions that have always attracted human curiosity: that of the origin of the dragon. The author demonstrates that both dragons and rainbows are cultural universals, that many of the traits that are attributed to dragons in widely separated parts of the planet are also attributed to rainbows, and that the number and antiquity of such shared traits cannot be attributed to chance or common inheritance, but rather to common cognitive pathways by which human psychology has responded to the natural environment in a wide array of cultures around the world.
