numbers' sticker book contains 12 striking pictures of animals, sea
creatures, famous landmarks and scenes to complete. The numbered
shapes on each page can be filled with corresponding stickers to
create beautiful, intricate artworks. Projects include a
spectacular seahorse, a magical unicorn and a breathtaking Statue
of Liberty. Featuring over 1,400 geometric stickers, it's the

Three topics dominate discussions of the global environment:
pollution; the consequences of the affluent running ever faster
through finite resources; and the growing tensions between rich and
poor as a third of humanity continues to live and die in desperate
poverty. In this exceptional book Barbara Ward (co-author with Rene
Dubos of the bestselling Only One Earth) refused to see these
processes as inevitable. It describes new technologies for
recycling waste, for energy, for ?getting more or less?, linking
them to ordinary people's working lives. It also suggests a
strategy for meeting the basic needs of the disadvantaged, and
shows how the vast inequalities between countries can be reduced.
This perceptive survey of policies outlines a planetary bargain
between the world's nations that would guarantee individual freedom
from poverty and keep our shared biosphere in good working order.

Although many educators and curriculum specialists tout the values
of using discussion in the classroom, it isn't always clear exactly
what discussion is or how it impacts its participants, particularly
the females in the classrooms where discussion is used as part of
the teaching methods. The voices of students, especially females,
are rarely heard in the research studies that examine classroom
practices, and this study attempts to amplify those voices in order
to understand how they experience discussion as a classroom
practice and what lies behind their reasons for speaking or not
speaking during classroom activities ostensibly devised to
encourage them to participate. This qualitative study uses
participation observation, teacher interviews, and interviews with
the five students selected for the study to gain understanding into
the reasons behind silence in the classroom. The study concludes
with a discussion of the implications researchers and educators my
draw from its results.
the first of a series of books about detective inspector Marc Adams
and his C.I.D.team solving murders and puzzles leading to the
murders
It is so often said that an understanding of the present relies
upon an understanding of the past; in the present age the truth of
this is perhaps less patent than formerly. Never before has the
world been so divided by conflicting ideologies, never has so much
depended upon the finding, not, perhaps, of a reconciliation of the
ideologies, but of a means of coexistence. The very continuation of
the human race would seem to hang upon a solution of this problem.
Through all these lectures runs a single thread, the inevitability
of the freedom of man, even if that freedom is liberty for
self-destruction. All history has shown that domination of man by
man must in the end bring revolt, passive or active, when the right
of the individual or the group triumphs over suppression . . . The
past may no longer be a certain guide to the future; let us hope
that in this one respect history will be the signpost, and that
intolerance and exploitation and inhumanity of man to man may some
day vanish from the earth. -Kwame Nkrumah, from the Foreword
An unofficial report commissioned by the Secretary-General of the
United Nations Conference on the Human Environment. Prepared with
the assistance of a 152-member committee of corresponding
consultants in 58 countries."[A] profoundly ethical, value-oriented
study . . . [points] to areas of concern for economists and
political scientists, philosophers and theologians." -P.J. Henriot,
America
Three topics dominate discussions of the global environment:
pollution; the consequences of the affluent running ever faster
through finite resources; and the growing tensions between rich and
poor. Barbara Ward refused to see these processes as inevitable.
Here, she describes new technologies for recycling waste, for
energy, for 'getting more or less', linking them to ordinary
people's working lives. She suggests a strategy for meeting the
basic needs of the disadvantaged, and shows how the vast
inequalities between countries can be reduced.
This practical guide shows readers how to teach students to draw in
a step-by-step way. Covering topics as diverse as shading,
perspective, shapes, portraits and figures, copious examples of
students' work illustrate Ward's concise prose. This book is a must
for all art teachers.
