Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Whispering Caverns and Attack of the AquapuffiesGeneral Kwan has lost his country-but he has no intention of giving up his dream of ruling the world.After escaping into the remote mountains of northern Mongolia, Kwan and his four loyal advisers disappear into a hidden network of caverns. Deep underground, he develops a secret weapon based on a strange scientific phenomenon involving lithium carbonate. Soon, mysterious events begin occurring thousands of miles away, and scientists struggle to understand what-or who-is causing them.At the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, scientist Aaron and his young interns, Pete, Randy, and Hank, begin piecing together the clues. Their search takes them from satellite data and thousands of experiments to a desperate international effort to locate General Kwan before his plan succeeds. But finding a man hidden beneath some of the most isolated mountains on Earth will require more than computers and technology. It will require curiosity, persistence, teamwork-and a willingness to notice the clues everyone else has overlooked.And General Kwan isn't finished.In Attack of the Aquapuffies, he returns with an even stranger scheme: seemingly harmless inflatable creatures called Aquapuffies. Colorful, amusing, and irresistible, they begin appearing in waters around the world. But there is something very wrong with these unusual creatures, and once again a puzzle that seems ridiculous at first becomes a very real threat.From the whispering caverns of Mongolia to the waters of San Francisco Bay, The Whispering Caverns and Attack of the Aquapuffies combines mystery, humor, science, suspense, and adventure in two connected stories about young people discovering that the best way to defeat a brilliant villain isn't to be smarter than everyone else-it's to think carefully and work together. The evil genius General Kwan plans to take over the world. Aaron, a scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, battles to save the world by brilliantly out-thinking General Kwan. Teamwork and creativity by Aaron give the world hope. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Legend of Bugsy McGeeMeet Bugsy McGee, an unlikely hero whose adventures turn the Old West upside down.Bugsy may look like an ordinary young cowboy, but there is nothing ordinary about the way he handles trouble. Armed with ingenuity, courage, a quick wit, and a collection of unexpected tricks, he faces outlaws, desperados, dangerous journeys, and seemingly impossible predicaments. When others reach for their six-shooters, Bugsy would rather outthink his adversaries.But Bugsy's adventures stretch far beyond the familiar world of dusty trails, frontier towns, and Western saloons. His travels bring him unexpected friendships, strange discoveries, and lessons drawn from people and places far removed from the American frontier. Again and again, he learns that wisdom can be a more powerful weapon than force-and that the best solution to a problem is often the one nobody else has imagined.Filled with action, humor, colorful characters, and surprising twists, The Legend of Bugsy McGee series combines the spirit of a classic Western with imaginative adventures that refuse to stay within the boundaries of time and place.These are stories about courage and friendship, but also about curiosity, resourcefulness, and learning to see the world differently-written for young readers and for adults who still enjoy a good yarn. An unconventional young cowboy defies frontier tropes by using sharp wit and clever tricks to outsmart dangerous outlaws. This spirited tale proves that intellect and curiosity are far more potent than any six-shooter. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Every impossible adventure begins with an even more impossible idea.What if Maxi, Laxi, Paxi, and Raxi created the world's most extraordinary resort?What if visitors could ski on a snow-covered mountain, stroll through a spring meadow, relax beneath a tropical sun, and explore a mysterious swamp-all without leaving the same island?And what if the boys became so busy improving their remarkable creation that they failed to notice the island beneath them was beginning to sink?Those questions became the beginning of The Impossible Resort.The Maxi Boys have already learned that a brilliant idea can carry them farther than they ever imagined.

Even when their grandest dream begins sinking beneath their feet, Maxi, Laxi, Paxi, and Raxi remain what they have always been: inventive, loyal, optimistic, and ready to turn disaster into their next remarkable idea.So come along to an island where every season has its own attraction, every attraction creates a new surprise, and nothing remains impossible for very long.Just don't be too surprised if your dream vacation becomes an unforgettable adventure.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - During the 1970s, young physicians learned medicine in a world of autonomy, responsibility, and uncertainty. Resident-driven hospital teams often made life-and-death decisions with limited supervision and few of the technological resources available today. In Making of a Physician, John E. Heffner, MD recounts his journey through that formative era, when bedside observation and clinical judgment often preceded advanced imaging, electronic records, and evidence-based guidelines. Through vivid stories of patients, mentors, therapeutic successes, and occasional missteps, he explores how physicians learned not only the science of medicine but also its craft. Blending memoir with the history of medical training and thoughtful reflection on professional development, this book examines what it meant to become a physician in an earlier generation-and what essential lessons from that experience remain relevant today. A story of mentorship, craftsmanship, and lifelong learning, Making of a Physician explores how doctors are shaped by their teachers, colleagues, patients, and families.…
