Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For too many students, first-year contracts is a heartache, plaguing them perpetually with this demoralizing thought: "I do my work, I go to class, I listen, I participate, and still - I don't know what it's all about or what my teacher wants me to know." We're here to spare you that sorrowful plight - to grab hold of contract law, tear away its veil of mystery, and flood it with such bright light as lets you see it for what it is: a course, like any other - easily understandable with ordinary work and thought"--

Book excerpt: For a young science whiz, an eagerly awaited day at the Fair turns into a wacky adventure with more twists and loops than the Gravity Whirl ride! Miller Sanford's parents think he's too young to explore the annual town fair alone. Hopeful that they will reconsider this year, Miller works extra hard to be nice to his little sister Penny and her friends. But when his mother can't attend the Fair and his father has to cover her volunteer booth hours as well as his own, Miller ends up with more responsibility than he can handle. Instead of enjoying a freewheeling day on his own, he is drawn into a series of mishaps involving everything from his dad's prize-worthy lemon meringue pie and his own ill-fated science fair project. Frank Dormer's kid-friendly illustrations enliven the pages of Leslie Bulion's lighthearted take on growing up and learning to be responsible.

Download or read book Gotham Unbound written by Ted Steinberg and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2015 PROSE Award for US History A “fascinating, encyclopedic history…of greater New York City through an ecological lens” (Publishers Weekly, starred review)—the sweeping story of one of the most man-made spots on earth. Gotham Unbound recounts the four-century history of how hundreds of square miles of open marshlands became home to six percent of the nation’s population. Ted Steinberg brings a vanished New York back to vivid, rich life. You will see the metropolitan area anew, not just as a dense urban goliath but as an estuary once home to miles of oyster reefs, wolves, whales, and blueberry bogs. That world gave way to an onslaught managed by thousands, from Governor John Montgomerie, who turned water into land, and John Randel, who imposed a grid on Manhattan, to Robert Moses, Charles Urstadt, Donald Trump, and Michael Bloomberg. “Weighty and wonderful…Resting on a sturdy foundation of research and imagination, Steinberg’s volume begins with Henry Hudson’s arrival aboard the Half Moon in 1609 and ends with another transformative event—Hurricane Sandy in 2012” (The Plain Dealer, Cleveland). This book is a powerful account of the relentless development that New Yorkers wrought as they plunged headfirst into the floodplain and transformed untold amounts of salt marsh and shellfish beds into a land jam-packed with people, asphalt, and steel, and the reeds and gulls that thrive among them. With metropolitan areas across the globe on a collision course with rising seas, Gotham Unbound helps explain how one of the most important cities in the world has ended up in such a perilous situation. “Steinberg challenges the conventional arguments that geography is destiny….And he makes the strong case that for all the ecological advantages of urban living, hyperdensity by itself is not necessarily a sound environmental strategy” (The New York Times).
