DESCRIPTION: These word scramble puzzles consist of pairs of English and French words where the letters have been scrambled. In each pair, the first word is a common English word and the second word is its French equivalent. Solve each puzzle by rearranging the letters to form the matching English and French words. For example, consider the following pair of English-French word scrambles: L O H E L / J U N O B O R. Rearranging the letters LOHEL, we can form the word HELLO; and unscrambling the letters JUNOBOR, we can form BONJOUR. LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY: You need to have familiarity with vocabulary words from French 1 in order to be able to unscramble the French words. Once you have unscrambled both words in a puzzle, seeing the words that go together - one English, one French - will help to reinforce your French-English vocabulary. ORGANIZATION: All of the answers in each puzzle are related in some way. For example, they might all be days of the week, or they might be feelings. Knowing that the words are related may help you unscramble any words that you don't see right away. HINTS/ANSWERS: There are separate sections of hints and answers at the back of the book. The hints section provides just the first letter of each word. This can be useful if you just need a little help. Complete answers are provided in the answers section. You might want to place a folded sheet of paper here so that you can check the current puzzle's answers without spoiling other puzzles.

These full-color illustrations on 8"x10" pages are at once aesthetically captivating and instructive. Each page consists of colorful images of tesseracts (4D hypercubes) or glomes (4D hyperspheres) with a paragraph caption describing the figures at the bottom. Color is used effectively to show how to visualize the features of tesseracts and glomes, how to draw tesseracts in perspective, how a tesseract unfolds, how the features of tesseracts and glomes change as they rotate, how to find the intersection of a tesseract or glome with a hyperplane, how hyperspherical coordinates are defined, how to understand hypercompass directions, and how to draw longitudes, hyperlatitudes, and latitudes. Rectangular hyperboxes and a hyperellipsoid are also shown. Subsequent volumes of this series will build upon these fundamental 4D objects to help you imagine features of a 4D world such as a hyperchair, a hypercross, a hyperpyramid, a hyperhouse, crystal structures, and simple hypermachines.

AUTHOR: Chris McMullen earned his Ph.D. in particle physics from Oklahoma State University. Dr. McMullen currently teaches physics at Northwestern State University of Louisiana. His background on the geometry and physics of a possible fourth dimension of space includes a half-dozen research papers on the prospects of discovering large extra dimensions at the Large Hadron Collider.DESCRIPTION: While Volume 1 covered the geometry of extra dimensions in detail, Volume 2 focuses on the physics of extra string-inspired dimensions. Consider the problem and solution of expressing the cross product in higher dimensions. See the effect that the extra flux of field lines has on Gauss's law in higher dimensions. Explore how extra dimensions may be hidden via compactification. Discover the recent motivation for the case of extra dimensions that are much larger than originally predicted by string theory. Read about current and upcoming experiments with the potential to detect the presence of large extra dimensions in our universe. Learn the fundamentals of special and general relativity, quantum mechanics, and string theory, and how these relate to extra dimensions... All on this visual introduction to the fourth and higher dimensions. This guide is conceptually and visually detailed, intended for mathematically-minded readers who may have not yet been exposed to calculus.PUZZLES: Several puzzles are included to challenge the reader to contemplate the fourth dimension. Answers are included at the back of the book.

These word scramble puzzles consist of spooky words or phrases where the letters have been scrambled. Many of the puzzles relate to Halloween in some way. Solve each puzzle by rearranging the letters to form the word or phrase. For example, rearranging the letters M O B I Z E, we can form the word Z O M B I E. Each puzzle consists of a group of related words or phrases, such as words that relate to ghosts or different kinds of Halloween costumes. Knowing that the words in each puzzle are related may help you unscramble any words or phrases that you don't see right away. A hints section at the back of the book provides the first letter of each answer, which is handy if you just need a little help; a separate section provides the answers so that you can check your solutions.EXAMPLES: P A C EG S A F ND O B O LK A T E SN O C T UT A Y B TM A P R E V IA L C A R D UANSWERS: cape, fangs, blood, stake, count, batty, vampire, Dracula

VErBAl ReAcTiONS are a new form of word scrambles with a chemical flavor. You don't need to know any science to be able to solve VErBAl ReAcTiONS puzzles, but the puzzles bear a resemblance to chemical reactions.EXAMPLE: Es + 2 S + P + Si + 2 O + N __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ .This VErBAl ReAcTiON is a word scramble consisting of one Es, two S's, one P, one Si, two O's, and one N. That is, the word scramble contains the elements Es, S, S, P, Si, O, O, and N. Unscramble these elements to form an 8-symbol word (that's why there are 8 blanks in the puzzle).ANSWER: For this puzzle, the answer is P O S S Es Si O N (possession).These VErBAl ReAcTiONS resemble chemical reactions in two ways. First, the scrambled elements appear added together on the left of the reaction with coefficients (like the number 2 in the puzzle above) telling you how many of each element the solution contains, and you fill in the result of the VErBAl ReAcTiON by rearranging the elements and writing them on the blanks on the right side of the reaction. Secondly, all of the solutions are chemical words. A chemical word is a word that can be made using symbols from the periodic table. For example, the chemical word POSSEsSiON is made using the symbols for phosphorus (P), oxygen (O), sulfur (S), Einsteinium (Es), silicon (Si), and nitrogen (N).You don't need to be familiar with the periodic table to solve these problems; nor do you need to know any chemistry. You just need to be able to count and unscramble elements to make words.This 'Medium' volume consists of words with 6 symbols, which involves familiarity with common 6 to 12 letter words.A unique feature of this book is that there is a Hints section at the back separate from the Answers section, for puzzlers who may be stuck and want to check just the first letter of the solution.MORE EXAMPLES: (1) S + Ni + Ge + U __ __ __ __ .(2) 2 C + N + 2 I + P __ __ __ __ __ __ .(3) Ti + C + Cr + P + Y __ __ __ __ __ .(4) 2 C + U + 2 S + Es __ __ __ __ __ __ .You can find the answers below.Note that this medium volume consists of chemical words with 6 symbols. There are also easy and hard puzzles (available in separate volumes), which consist of shorter and longer chemical words.ANSWERS: (1) GeNiUS (2) PICNIC (3) CrYPTiC (4) SUCCEsS.

"Why Do We Have to Go to School?" is a 10,000 word fictional dialogue between a young man and his father. A fascinating debate evolves after the son asks, "Dad, why do we have to go to school?" This lively and captivating conversation serves as a thought-provoking discussion on the current status of educational policy and practice - specifically, regarding the use and role of technology in the classroom. It is beautifully decorated with related icons and word blocks. This artistic touch shows how books have evolved with technology, which closely parallels one of the themes from the dialogue. The images appear in color in the e-book edition and in black-and-white in the paperback edition. SON: Dad, why do we have to go to school? FATHER: Son, you need to learn valuable skills, like the three R's. SON: What's the third R? I can think of A-R-E, as in, "Are you going to let me stay home?" and O-U-R, as in, "Our time is being wasted in school." FATHER: No, Son, you misunderstood. The three R's are reading, writing, and arithmetic. SON: Why do they call them the three R's? Two of those words don't even begin with an R. FATHER: Well, they do have an R in common. What would you call them? SON: War FATHER: Now, Son, there's no reason to become so violent about it. SON: But, Dad, hear me out. W.A.R. stands for Writing, Arithmetic, and Reading.
