introduction to Biology
c ountless biological processes enable the existence of all organisms and facilitate their interactions with the living and nonliving world
around them. The microscopic structures and intricate mechanisms that make up these processes—from those that regulate the heartbeat of a child to those that govern photosynthesis in a plant—illuminate much about the past and future of all life. By examining the biological basis of various life forms and their characteristic behavioral patterns, these comprehensive volumes illuminate the magnificent organization of the natural world.

introduction to Earth science
t he mosaic formed by Earth’s many terrains and geographic treasures reflects the incredible journey the planet has taken in the millennia since
it was formed. Fashioned from the natural forces and climatic conditions the Earth is subject to, the planet’s biomes—from its oceans to its deserts and rainforests—have nurtured a wide range of diverse plant and animal life. Loaded with stunning color images, these volumes provide a panoramic view of the planet’s extraordinary physical history and ecology, as well as the geologic and meteorological phenomena that have shaped it—and continue to do so today.

the solar system
c elestial bodies have intrigued the human imagination throughout the centuries. Planets that join Earth in rotating around our life-giving
Sun and the distant stars and galaxies that can be viewed only from a distance. Promising limitless opportunity for exploration and endless fuel for scientific inquiry, space offers new frontiers that demand to be discovered. As these absorbing volumes demonstrate, understanding the foundations of our world and the universe it inhabits begins by examining the elements of our own solar system the Sun, planets, moons, and other bodies whose relationships with each other reveal much about the cosmic origins of all matter.

geology: landforms, Minerals, and rocks
M inerals and rocks are remnants of the planet’s most ancient history and custodians of its geologic secrets. While a great deal remains
to be discovered about Earth’s origins and the earliest stages of its development, much of its past is indelibly chronicled in the inorganic material that comprises its surface and transforms its landscapes. These intriguing volumes examine the basic components of the planet—from topographic landforms to the molten rocks at Earth’s core—and the geologic processes that affect them, as well as the various disciplines dedicated to deciphering these relationships.
• Illustrations highlight key structures and concepts
• Charts detail significant landforms and mineral types

transportation and society
a t one time, the ability to travel was limited by the capacity of one’s own two feet and the geographic barriers that divided one place from
another. Ingenuity has led to increasingly sophisticated modes of transportation that have allowed humans to transcend physical and theoretical boundaries, via land, sea, and air.

Math Explained
T he universal language of numbers has allowed individuals to transcend cultural differences and make collaborative efforts to comprehend
the world mathematically. Though many of these mathematicians may never have met the predecessors who made their own work possible, their collective works form the foundations of mathematics as it is known today. This series introduces students not only to the theories and formulas that form the basis of each field of mathematics, but to the individuals who dedicated their lives to pushing numerical boundaries. Detailed diagrams provide visual summaries of complex concepts and make these books an asset to both to lovers of math and to those who may find math unapproachable.
• Engages students in both math and history
• Comprehensive coverage of both basic and complex ideas
• Accessible to all interest levels

impact on america: collective Biographies
t he formation and growth of any country involves a complex symphony of political, social, and cultural movements orchestrated by impassioned
individuals. Some seek the betterment of their society while others are intent on making a more personal mark. Between the discovery and settlement of the land, the Reconstruction era, and beyond, the United States saw many such actors, including those who fought for the right to govern themselves during the American Revolution and those who fought for states rights and the emancipation of an entire race in the American Civil War. These captivating volumes survey the lives of the political figures and social revolutionaries that shaped early U.S. history.

Health and Disease in Society
O ur physical wellbeing facilitates our ability to engage with—and enjoy—the world around us, and is directly related to quality of life. However,
even as life expectancies increase and scientists advance treatments and solutions to ailments that have long plagued societies around the world, new health concerns are constantly emerging to challenge our well-being as well as our current awareness of disease.

Introduction

7 Introduction 7
During the hot summer months of 1787, delegates from the American states met in Philadelphia and created
a new framework of government, called the United States Constitution. While the delegates recognized the need for a strong executive to govern the United States, they did not want an all-powerful monarch who might become a tyrant. Instead they created three branches of govern-ment—the executive, the legislature and the judiciary—each with specific powers, and each with the power to check and balance the other.
In Article II, the Constitution spells out the pow-ers of the President, the Chief Executive of the United States. They include the power to make treaties with for-eign governments and to appoint ambassadors, federal judges and other officials—but only with the consent of the U.S. Senate. The President is also Commander and Chief of the nation’s armed forces, but can only declare war with the approval of Congress. In 1789, as a result of the first presidential election, George Washington became President of the United States and John Adams, his Vice President. Washington named a small group of political leaders to his cabinet, including Alexander Hamilton, Secretary of the Treasury; Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of State; and Henry Knox, Secretary of War. The Constitution specified that the President’s term of office should be four years, although it did not state how many times a presi-dent could run for re-election. Washington chose to run in 1792 for a second four-year term. After winning the elec-tion, he retired at the end of his second term, setting a precedent followed by other presidents until the 20th century.
Under the Constitution, a president and vice president are not elected directly by the American voters. Instead, they vote for electors in their states, who, in turn, elect America’s two top executives. According to the

u.s. government: the separation of Powers
t he framers of the Constitution had consummate legal minds. Their desire for a government that would represent the needs of the many as well as

This thought-provoking series provides an exciting look into the three branches of the world’s leading democratic government. Primary source documents and interpretations introduce readers to leaders, ideas, and legal principles at work. Readers will learn about presidential interplay, from George Washington to Barack Obama.

A History of Western Civilization
B efore spawning the dual—and sometimes dueling—behemoths of democracy and capitalism that have become integral to much
of the Western world, the European continent was largely comprised of disparate villages, city-states, and kingdoms, with little to unite them. Over time, political, social, and economic philosophies emerged to transform kingdoms into empires. This engaging series takes a broad look at the events, movements, and ideas that created and sustained the countries of Europe, from prehistory through the Renaissance, from the modern era to the present European Union.

the Britannica guide to Ethics
l eading a principled existence demands grappling with questions whose answers are frequently unclear and examining the values that we most
vigorously defend. Even as we contend with the travails of daily life, we are constantly confronted with issues of moral import. These penetrative books consider the key developments in thinking on Western ethics and the thinkers throughout time who have challenged us to re-evaluate the standards we use to distinguish between right and wrong and the moral codes that form the backbone of human behavior.

the history of Philosophy
t he human mind has long hungered to understand deep truths. Though ideas of this nature are often impossible to explain definitively, numerous
individuals dedicate their lives to seeking answers that transcend the mechanical and approach the metaphysical. These absorbing books invite readers to pose their most probing questions alongside the philosophers who came before them and learn about the various strands of thought that developed over time in response. Students will also discover the interplay between philosophy and religion as well as the mathematical basis for much philosophical thought.

God’s Word to Humanity
chapter 2
There is something of the soul of the Prophet Muhammad in the Qur’an, the holy book of Islam
that tradition holds was originally a sonorous revelation from God imprinted upon the Prophet’s heart and only later written down. If the text of the Qur’an is comparable to words heard by the ear, the soul of the Prophet is like the air that carries the sound and allows it to be heard by humanity. According to a famous saying from him (known as hadith al-thaqalayn), Muhammad said that, when he departed from the world, he would leave behind two pre-cious gifts (thaqalayn): the Qur’an and his family. When asked by his wife ‘A’ishah how he should be remembered after his death, Muhammad replied, “By reciting the Qur’an.” The very subtle relationship between the Qur’an and the Prophet causes Muslims to feel his grace (barakah) whenever they read the Qur’an, which they nevertheless understand to be the pronouncement to humanity of the Word of God revealed through the agency of the archan-gel Gabriel to Muhammad, a pious but unlettered person, and uttered verbatim by him to those around him.
The Qur’an
The Qur’an is the central theophany (divine manifesta-tion) of Islam. Although most modern Muslims know it as the Holy Qur’an, many of them still refer to it as al-Qur’an al-karim or al-Qur’an al-majid, which can best be translated as “the Noble Qur’an” or “the Glorious Qur’an.” Composed in Arabic, Islam’s sacred liturgical language, the Qur’an is untranslatable. The name Qur’an is derived from the term al-qur’an, meaning “the recita-tion.” The scripture has many other names, each of which suggests an aspect of its significance for Muslims. Among those found in the text itself are al-furqan (“discern-ment”), umm al-kitab (the “mother book,” or “archetypal

the native american sourcebook
n ative American cultures and contributions predate those of the American majority, and yet they are often unfairly consigned to the
peripheries of the mainstream. The longevity of many Native American traditions is testament to the strength and endurance of these societies and their perseverance in the face of trials and persecution. This penetrating series explores the ideas and cultures indigenous to the Americas and sheds light on these frequently misunderstood peoples. The narratives in these books will leave readers with a more informed understanding of the Americans whose stories are integral to the fabric of history.
• Vivid illustrations highlight cultural traditions
• A detailed glossary explains terms and concepts

native american tribes
a s indigenous peoples of the “New World,” Native Americans had established working societies long before Europeans arrived on the shores of North
America. Each tribe had its own unique identity even as it shared certain traditions, customs, means of sustenance, housing patterns, and beliefs with neighboring groups in a given culture area. Each volume digs beneath the surface of more than 25 tribes to examine what life truly was like for American Indians before, during, and after European settlement.

the Britannica guide to religion
o ffering both personal fulfillment and practical guidance, religions often comprise a complex interplay of theology, history, mythology, moral
philosophy, and ritual. As many religions spread across the globe, they evolve over time and assume new cultural hues, thus creating “lived religions” whose practices, while anchored in their doctrinal foundations, blend in various facets of local traditions and beliefs. The key events, ideas, literature, figures, institutions, and customs central to the spiritual life of two such faiths—Christianity and Judaism—are considered in depth in these insightful volumes.
