- Echo / by Michael C. Grumley. by Grumley, Michael C.,author.(CARDINAL)413895;
- "It began with a breakthrough. In interspecies communication. Leading both John Clay and Alison Shaw through a series of startling discoveries and life-altering revelations. Divulging who we really are as a species. Why we are here...and who is here with us. And the greatest lesson of all, that our brains are not as rare and unique as humans had assumed. But rather just one of three brains between three extraordinary species. All influenced by a fluke of evolution that should never have existed on Earth in the first place. Something we are now finally on the cusp of understanding. It will take more than just one brain to do it. More than just one species. And courage from all three. Courage in the face of those still trying to stop Clay and Alison before their stranglehold on the world is lost. But Clay and his team already know the truth. That there is no courage without fear, and no victory without sacrifice." -- Page 4 of cover.

- Dealing with difficult people in the library / by Willis, Mark R.(CARDINAL)213751;
- Includes bibliographical references (page 187) and index."Dealing with Difficult People in the Library offers practical strategies for managing problems posed by patrons and staff. It is the best hands-on guide to solving problems through communication, preventive measures, and clear and concise patron behavior policies." "Communication skills are at the heart of resolving difficult situations and ensuring that simple encounters don't escalate into real problems. Recognizing the difference between a patron with a simple problem and a real security risk takes skill and understanding. Knowing how to deal with both situations effectively is a challenge. Dealing with Difficult People in the Library will arm you with the skills and the ability needed."--Jacket.

- Seeing science : the art of making the invisible visible / by Challoner, Jack,author.(CARDINAL)316020;
- Includes index and bibliographical references.Introduction: the importance of seeing -- Making the invisible visible -- Microscopes and telescopes -- Photography and electron microscopes -- Beyond the visible spectrum -- Fields and particles -- Data, information, knowledge -- Visualizing data -- Communicating information -- Passing on knowledge -- mathematical models and simulations -- Mathematics as a model of reality -- Computational fluid dynamics -- Art in science -- Art and Science -- Paleoart -- Space art."We live among patterns of delicate beauty and exquisite chaos that our eyes can't detect; we are surrounded by invisible particles and shifting fields of matter that permeate all of space. Our very cells are intricate molecular machines, and the story of our origins stretches back through an unimaginable amount of time. How can we see the richness of what lies beyond our sensory perception? Scientists have developed visualization tools that can make the invisible visible. This bountifully illustrated book demonstrates the power of images to represent the unseeable, offering stunning visualizations of science that range from the microscopic to the incredibly vast. With more than 200 color images and an engaging text by leading science writer Jack Challoner, Seeing Science explains and illustrates the techniques by which scientists create visualizations of their discoveries. We see the first detection of a black hole as represented by an image from an Xray telescope, get a direct view of DNA through an electron microscope, and much more. Visualizations are also used to make sense of an avalanche of data--concisely presenting information from the 20,000 or so human genes, for example. Scientists represent complex theories in computer models, which take on a curious beauty of their own. And scientists and artists collaborate to create art from science visualizations, with intriguing results"--
