Joshua – a magic-loving nerd – has a huge crush on Sophia. She’s an actual genius, especially when it comes to maths, but finds relationships much trickier to decipher. She tells herself she doesn’t have time for one, anyway; her life plan revolves around finishing year twelve and, after that, university. But, as she and Joshua get to know each other, Sophia can’t help wondering: what if there’s more to life than academics? And what if there are more pluses than minuses in taking a risk? Now, Sophia’s faced with a problem no amount of studying can solve: what’s the formula for balancing life and love? From Melissa Keil, the award-winning author of Life in Outer Space and The Incredible Adventures of Cinnamon Girl, comes this captivating novel about first romance, owning your choices, and what to do when your lifelong dreams no longer equate to happiness.

- This edition is unique;- The translation is completely original and was carried out for the Ale. Mar. SAS;- All rights reserved.The Secret Science Behind Miracles is a book by New Age author Max Freedom Long, first published in 1948. Purported to be a book about the religious beliefs and practices of the ancient Hawaiian kahunas, Long apparently never spoke to any of the ceremonial people whilst he was working in Hawaii as a teacher. After leaving the country, convinced that he would never learn these secrets, he woke one day with a revelation that the secrets were encoded into the Hawaiian language itself. He called the religious system he developed from this revelation 'Huna' (the Hawaiian word for secret), and wrote his first book in 1936 to chronicle his beliefs. However, it is worth noting, that contemporary scholars consider the system to be his invention, designed through a mixture of a variety of spiritual practices from various cultures, with roots in New Thought and Theosophy, rather than in traditional Hawaiian beliefs.

♥♥The Secret Science Behind Miracles by Max Freedom Long ♥♥ Max Freedom Long was a preeminent western scholar on the Huna, the psychological philosophies of the ancient polynesian culture that incorporated 'miraculous' events such as hands on healing, fire/hot lava walking, spirit communication and management, and psychic occurances. This text is a compilation of his case studies and field work. Chapters include The Practical Use Of The Magic Of The Miracle, How The Kahunas Controlled Winds, Weather And The Sharks By Magic, The High Self And The Healing In Psychic Science, The Significance Of Seeing Into The Future In The Psychometric Phenomena And In Dreams, The Incredible Force Used In Magic, Where It Comes From, And Some Of Its Uses, and, Fire-Walking As An Introduction To Magic. ♥♥The Secret Science Behind Miracles by Max Freedom Long ♥♥ This book deals with the discovery of an ancient and secret system of workable magic, which, if we can learn to use it as did the native Polynesians and North Africans, bids fair to change the world. The Huna ("secret")science used by the Polynesians for healing, controlling of winds and weather, and other "miracles" was strictly prohibited to outsiders until Max Freedom Long arrived in 1917. I arrived in Hawaii in 1917, and took a teaching position that placed me near the volcano, Kileauea, which was very active at the time. ♥♥The Secret Science Behind Miracles by Max Freedom Long ♥♥ The school was one of three rooms and stood in a lonely valley between a great sugar plantation and a ranch. The two teachers under me were both Hawaiian, and it was only natural that I soon began to know more about their Hawaiian friends. From there I began to hear guarded references to native magicians, the kahunas, or Keepers of the Secret. With background in psychology, my curiosity became aroused and I began to ask questions. To my surprise I found that questions were not welcomed. MAX FREEDOM LONG ♥♥The Secret Science Behind Miracles by Max Freedom Long ♥♥

What stops pregnant women from falling over all the time? What makes infant cries so captivating? How do sperm swim? The Secret Science of Baby answers these questions and many more, revealing the fascinating physics behind conception, birth, and babyhood. Parents and parents-to-be are bombarded with information, from what to expect to what to do (and not to do) when it happens. But what they may not realize is that from the chemistry of pregnancy tests to the vacuum physics of breastfeeding, there is fascinating science at the heart of every aspect of creating and raising a new human. Written by science journalist Michael Banks, The Secret Science of Baby won’t tell you how to raise a perfect violin-playing, mandarin-speaking toddler, but it will shed a new light on how and why things happen as they do—from conception and pregnancy to cooing and pooing. Exploring the hidden physics behind uterine contractions, the fluid dynamics of diapers, and more, both parents and curious non-parents (who, after all, were once babies themselves) will gain a fresh perspective on the infant universe . . . and the thrilling science that makes it possible. In these pages, readers will discover: The physics of the playground and common toys—from the swing to the Slinky What it really means to "sleep like a baby" The surprising shared vocal cord features of lions and (human) infants The miracle of a baby's first breath and how surface tension provided the key to helping preemies breathe Banks draws from his own experience, interviews with scientists, and the latest research (including some involving conception inside an MRI machine) to offer a book that focuses on “how?” rather than “how-to.” The result is an illuminating and hilarious journey through the everyday science of making, baking, and bringing up baby.

Ever wondered what a superhero eats for breakfast? Do they need a special diet to feed their superpowers? The odd metabolisms of superheroes must mean they have strange dietary needs, from the high calorie diets to fuel flaming bodies and super speeds, to not so obvious requirements for vitamins and minerals. The Secret Science of Superheroes looks at the underpinning chemistry, physics and biology needed for their superpowers. Individual chapters look at synthesising elements on demand, genetic evolution and what superhero suits could be made of. By exploring these topics, the book introduces a wide range of scientific concepts, from protein chemistry to particle physics for a general scientifically interested audience. With contributions from leading science communicators the book hopes to answer some of these important questions rather than debunk or pick holes in the science of superheroes.
