"It was August 27, 1885. In a hospital in Lima, Peru, a student
named Daniel Carrion was preparing to infect himself with a dreaded
disease . . . He had a small, sharp lancet ready . . . Carrion's
friends and teacher from the medical school thought it was a bad
idea. They knew Carrion was eager to learn more about this
mysterious disease.
But were the risks worth it?
"Science and medicine from the inside out-ten engrossing stories of
self-experimentation
Who are these "guinea pig scientists"? Searching for clues to some
of science's and medicine's bigger (and sometimes stranger)
questions, they are all the men and women who devoted their lives
to help find the answers. Spanning from the 1770s to the
present--and uncovering the science behind digestion, the spread of
yellow fever, the development of the first heart catheter, and
more--their ten stories are at once scientifically detailed and
fascinatingly personal.
Science Bug International is an exciting and comprehensive science
programme that has been designed to make sure your children never
stop asking questions about their world! The Topic Book includes
fun and engaging practical activities as well as opportunities for
consolidation and reflection making it perfect for use inside and
outside the classroom. With full and comprehensive coverage of the
skills and knowledge required for curriculum attainment, Science
Bug International will help you to nurture and inspire your young
scientist.
These new resources have been developed for the latest Edexcel
International GCSE specification (from 2017) with progression,
international relevance and support at their core, so students are
fully prepared for the exam. The new 9-1 grading scale ensures a
consistent international standard of qualification. The increase in
levels of grading allows learners to achieve their full potential
and make more informed decisions about their options for
progression. Pearson Progression tools allows quick and easy
formative assessment of student progress, linked to guidance on how
to personalise learning solutions, helping students make the best
progress they can. The embedded transferrable skills that are
needed for progression into higher education and employment, are
explicitly signposted allowing students to understand, and engage
with, the skills they're gaining. The new ActiveLearn Digital
Service brings together your planning, teaching and assessment
across one service, saving you valuable time. It embeds progression
within its interactive activities offering the teacher extra
diagnostic power and creates a personalised teaching and
independent learning experience both in and outside the classroom.
Each Student Book will provide access to an ActiveBook, a digital
version of the Student's Book, which can be accessed online,
anytime, anywhere supporting learning beyond the classroom.
Specifically developed for international learners, with appropriate
international content, making it engaging and relevant for all
learners and allowing for learning in a local context, to a global
standard. EAL-focused content, checked by an EAL specialist,
addresses the needs of EAL students with carefully graded writing
to B2/C1 level (CEFR) and a glossary provided of specialist Maths
vocabulary.
What is hot and what is cold? The sun is hot, an ice lolly is cold.
Hot and Cold looks at how we use hot and cold things every day, how
we keep warm and how we keep cool. Lively text, colourful pictures
and fun puzzles help you to learn all about hot and cold. Part of
the series Now You Know Science - 6 titles that cover fun science
topics.

Please note this title is suitable for any student studying: Exam
Board: AQA Level: GCSE Subject: Physics Combined First teaching:
September 2016 First exams: June 2018 Specifically tailored for the
current (2016) AQA GCSE Science (9-1) specifications, this book
supports students on their journey from Key Stage 3 and through to
success at GCSE. It includes support for the maths and practical
requirements.
This book teaches children about the basic principles of science
through 30 exciting experiments and crafts that can be done at
home, using everyday objects and materials around you. Why do
bubbles hold their shape? How does an electric circuit work? What
makes popcorn pop? Can an egg bounce? If you thought that science
could only be practised wearing white coats in a sterile
laboratory, think again! A brilliant way to link the STEM/STEAM
themes being taught at school back to your home in a fun and
fascinating way. Perfect for budding scientists who love to ask...
'why?' Activities include making slime, hot ice, baking soda fizz
bombs, coloured milk, making your own crystals, invisible ink, soda
bottle ecosystem and many more. AGES: 5 to 11 AUTHORS: Laura Minter
and Tia Williams are two creative mums based in Sussex, UK. They
started Little Button Diaries, their award-winning crafting and
baking blog in 2013 to show that having children doesn't mean you
have to stop doing the things you love. Laura and Tia also write
craft tutorials for craft superstore Hobbycraft and they have
written many books for GMC Publications, including The Superhero
Craft Book, The Dinosaur Craft Book, The Mermaid Craft Book, The
Horrible Craft Book and The Big Book of Dressing Up.
CGP's Complete Revision and Practice is the perfect formula to

Practical Investigations. There's also a huge range of practice
questions and exam-style questions throughout (with answers
included at the back), plus plenty of useful advice for scoring top
marks in the final exams. What's more, the book is rounded off with
realistic Physics practice papers! A free Online Edition of the
whole book is also included - just use the unique code printed
inside the cover to access it! For complete coverage of the course,
separate CGP Complete Revision & Practice books are available
for Edexcel International GCSE Biology (9781789080827) and

The Outside the Research Lab series is a testament to the fact that
the physics taught to high school and university students IS used
in the real world. This book explores the physics and technology
inherent to a selection of sports which have caught the author's
attention and fascination over the years. Outside the Research Lab,
Volume 3 is a path to discovering how less commonly watched sports
use physics to optimize performance, diagnose injuries, and
increase access to more competitors. It covers Olympic and
Paralympic fencing, show jumping horses, and arguably the most
brutal of motorsports - drag racing. Stunning images throughout the
book and clear, understandable writing are supplemented by offset
detail boxes which take the physics concepts to higher levels.
Outside the Research Lab, Volume 3 is both for the general interest
reader and students in STEM. Lecturers in university physics,
materials science, engineering and other sciences will find this an
excellent basis for teaching undergraduate students the range of
applications for the physics they are learning. There is a vast
range of different areas that require expertise in physics...this
third volume of Outside the Research Lab shows a few with great
detail provided by professionals doing the work.
