Over 7 billion people live on the earth, and 84 percent of them
describe themselves as being religious. Few topics incite such
passion as religion. What does that mean? Why are humans invested
in ideas that may never be proved? Why has religion played such an
important role in history? In Comparative Religion: Investigate the
World through Religious Tradition, readers seek answers to these
questions by comparing and contrasting the cultural, spiritual, and
geographical underpinnings of five different religions. By
developing a better understanding of the similarities and
differences among religions of the world, readers gain a strong
foothold in a dialogue that has continued for thousands of years.
Combining hands-on activities with theology, history, geography,
world cultures, art, and architecture, Comparative Religion
encourages deeper understanding of the world's religions.
Entertaining graphic art, fascinating sidebars, and links to
primary sources bring the topic to life, while key questions
reaffirm foundational concepts. Activities include conducting an
interview with a rabbi, comparing the story of Abraham and Isaac in
three sacred texts, studying the architecture of the National
Cathedral in Washington, DC, studying the Hindu practice of yoga
and meditation, and examining how religious doctrines shape the
behavior of believers.
Forensics: Uncover the Science and Technology of Crime Scene
Investigation introduces students to the fascinating world of
forensic science and shows them how to find clues, analyze
evidence, and crack the case. Combining hands-on activities with
forensic science, kids will have fun learning about the world of
forensics, evidence collection, and crime lab analysis.
Entertaining illustrations and fascinating sidebars illuminate the
topic and bring it to life, reinforcing new vocabulary. Projects
include documenting a crime scene, identifying fingerprints,
analyzing blood spatter, and extracting DNA. Additional materials
include a glossary and a list of current reference works, websites,
museums, and science centers.
