Die Oxford Storieboom is 'n opwindende aanvangsleesreeks waarin die klem op die stories in die 190 boeke val. Daar word van die standpunt uitgegaan dat selfs leerders wat nog nie gereed is om simbole te interpreteer nie, wel belangstel in stories en hierdie stories kan interpreteer en weergee. Die reeks maak gebruik van 'n holistiese taalbenadering en is so gestruktureer dat alle leerlinge daardeur gestimuleer word. Die Oxford Storieboom is an exciting beginner's reading series consisting of 190 readers. A holistic language approach is used, and the series is structured to engage all pupils. The focus falls on the story itself, as the series is based on the view that even those children who are not ready to interpret symbols are able to interpret a story and retell it.

In a world plagued by religious conflict, how can the various religious and secular traditions coexist peacefully on the planet? And, what role does sociology play in helping us understand the state of religious life in a globalizing world? In the Fourth Edition of Gods in the Global Village, author Lester Kurtz continues to address these questions. This text is an engaging, thought-provoking examination of the relationships among the major faith traditions that inform the thinking and ethical standards of most people in the emerging global social order. Thoroughly updated to reflect recent events, the book discusses the role of religion in our daily lives and global politics, and the ways in which religion is both an agent of, and barrier to, social change.

Biogenic Sustainable Nanotechnology: Trends and Progress focuses on the green synthesis of nanomaterials with various biological systems, emphasizing the mechanisms of nanomaterial synthesis, spectroscopic characterizations, and applications in a variety of industrial sectors. Interest in developing eco-friendly, green, cost-effective, and facile methods for nanomaterials synthesis is rapidly growing. Green synthesis methods focus on a greener environment, minimizing generated waste, and implementing sustainable processes. As discussed in this book, green nanostructured materials often include phytochemical agent extracts, such as carbohydrates, flavonoids, saponins, proteins, amino acids, chromone, steroids, phytol, and terpenoids. These phytochemicals from plant extracts play a crucial role in improving the reduction rate, size, and stabilization, by acting as good reducers, surfactants, structure directors, and capping agents. This book is an essential reference source for materials scientists, bioengineers, and environmental scientists.
