My purpose in writing my book is to inform individuals interested in becoming lawyers that they must be positively sure that they are ready to enter a very disciplined world, obtain the required educational foundation that one needs to be successful in law school, and look deep within themselves to see if they have the necessary personality to be successful in their legal studies, the proper procedure to follow upon completing their bachelor of arts (BA) degree in applying to law school, and a heads-up approach on how to properly handle the reading comprehension section of the LSAT. Therefore, because I know how difficult the LSAT actually is, I am publishing my version of the reading comprehension section of the LSAT, and I am positive that the individuals who purchase my book and take it to heart and get to the task of teaching themselves the reading comprehension section of the LSAT and study each day will have a better understanding of how to properly approach this section. REMEMBER HARD WORK AND PRACTICE IS THE KEY TO BEING SUCCESSFUL. Very truly yours, Basil R. Loucas Good morning, on April 14, 2014, the e book version of my book LSAT THE LOUCAS WAY was awarded a Bronze Nominee Sticker from the 4th Annual Global E Book Awards 2014 and on August 17, 2014 it was the Bronze Medal Winner of the 2014 Global E Book Awards in the non-fiction Reference category. As I see it, LSAT THE LOUCAS WAY is a unique approach and it far exceeds anything the competition currently has to offer. As a result, it will revolutionize how an individual who wants to be an attorney should approach and complete the reading comprehension section of LSAT.

THE CLOSEST PLACE ON EARTH THAT YOU WILL GET TO HELL - Charlie Bronson Broadmoor: My Journey Into Hell documents the story of long-term prisoner Charlie Bronson and his five-year stay at Britain's most notorious mental hospital, Broadmoor. His journey has, until now, never been told.In the winter of 1979, aged just twenty-seven, the inmate who would come to be known as 'Charlie Bronson' was considered uncontrollable by the prison system. Certified insane, he was transferred from Parkhurst Prison to the most infamous high-security psychiatric hospital in England, Broadmoor Asylum for the Criminally Insane. There he embarked on a one-man campaign to retain his sanity, and to fight against the brutality of a largely hidden regime that relied on enforced drug control.This outstandingly honest account takes the reader back to those dark days. It is a journey filled with sadness, and yet it is one that includes much laughter and pathos, as well as detailing the camaraderie among fellow patients, who included Ronnie Kray and Frankie Fraser. How Charlie Bronson survived Broadmoor, what he endured and the things he witnessed are, for the very first time, documented in this sad, often chilling, sometimes funny and often moving account of one man's journey into madness and his methods for surviving the UK's most feared and notorious psychiatric hospital. Capturing Bronson's unique voice, it is a roller-coaster ride of madness, pain, laughter and tears. It is also a testament to one man's triumph over adversity.

This volume seeks to broaden current ideas about the role of critical thinking (CT) in biology and environmental education considering educational challenges in the post-truth era. The chapters are distributed into three sections, perspectives of a theoretical character (part I), empirical research about CT in the context of biology and health education (part II), and empirical research on CT in the context of environmental and sustainability education (part III). The volume includes studies reporting students’ engagement in the practice of critical thinking, and displays how CT can be integrated in biology and environmental education and why biology and environmental issues are privileged contexts for the development of CT. The chapters examine a range of dimensions of CT, such as skills, dispositions, emotions, agency, open-mindedness, or personal epistemologies. In addition, they explore topics such as climate change, sustainable diets, genetically modified food, vaccination, acceptance of evolution, homeopathy, and gene cloning. Concluding remarks regarding the connections between the chapters and future directions for the integration of critical thinking in biology and environmental education are presented in a final chapter.

The Lady Believed to be from England is a dramatic story set in the stunningly beautiful island of Cyprus. More than just another murder mystery, with some dodgy dealings perpetrated by the Cyprus Judiciary – Firstly that authority’s failure to recognise a sinister piece of corruption, collusion, and treachery under its nose. – Eventually that same authority’s realisation of the hurt felt by those who were the innocent victims. It tells that story of a Cyprus born lady so much loved by all who meet her, and how against all odds, she has pulled about her a great sense, and an even greater ability to help others to hold up their heads. There is much to know about her and her family from her late husband, and those of her second husband. It was this larger than life fellow who recognised the seeds of greatness within her and set about culturing these until they blossomed into an even more marvellous bloom than he had perceived. There are many sides to learn of this vibrant man who laughs when others might cry and creates an aura around him which others want to share. Their blissful life together appears to be something of Utopian proportions and seemed untouchable. However their love for each other and life in general is about to be shrouded in the darkest clouds containing a mixture of criminal injury, corruption, and authoritarian negligence. Now the great resolve they had always previously displayed would be tested to the utmost. Throughout this book there are several digressions which should be thoroughly enjoyed. These are not simply meant as ‘space fillers’ but are solely intended to provide the reader with an insight into the lives of the families and characters. I am sure you will find it interesting and at times very amusing. I must thank my good friend Maggie Muir for her assistance in piecing the story together, and my darling wife who patiently listened for twenty years of promises that one day I’d write a book.

​This book examines the implementation of inquiry-based approaches in science teaching and learning. It explores the ways that those approaches could be promoted across various contexts in Europe through initial teacher preparation, induction programmes and professional development activities. It illustrates connections between scientific knowledge deriving from the science education research community, teaching practices deriving from the science teachers’ community, and educational innovation. Inquiry-Based Science Teaching and Learning (IBST/L) has been promoted as a policy response to pressing educational challenges, including disengagement from science learning and the need for citizens to be in a position to evaluate evidence on pressing socio-scientific issues. Effective IBST/L requires well-prepared and skilful teachers, who can act as facilitators of student learning and who are able to adapt inquiry-based activity sequences to their everyday teaching practice. Teachers also need to engage creatively with the process of nurturing student abilities and to acquire new assessment competences. The task of preparing teachers for IBST/L is a challenging one. This book is a resource for the implementation of inquiry-oriented approaches in science education and illustrates ways of promoting IBST/L through initial teacher preparation, induction and professional development programmes.
