About the author:Sir Joseph John "J. J." Thomson, 1856 – 1940 was an English physicist. In 1897, Thomson showed that cathode rays were composed of a previously unknown negatively charged particle, and thus he is credited with the discovery and identification of the electron; and, in a broader sense, with the discovery of the first subatomic particle. Thomson is also credited with finding the first evidence for isotopes of a stable (non-radioactive) element in 1913, as part of his exploration into the composition of canal rays (positive ions). He invented the mass spectrometer.Thomson was awarded the 1906 Nobel Prize in Physics for the discovery of the electron and for his work on the conduction of electricity in gases.From inside the book:In these Lectures given at Yale University in May, 1903, I have attempted to discuss the bearing of the recent advances made in Electrical Science on our views of the Constitution of Matter and the Nature of Electricity; two questions which are probably so intimately connected, that the solution of the one would supply that of the other. A characteristic feature of recent Electrical Researches, such as the study and discovery of Cathode and Rontgen Rays and Radio-active Substances, has been the very especial degree in which they have involved the relation between Matter and Electricity.In choosing a subject for the Silliman Lectures, it seemed to me that a consideration of the bearing of recent work on this relationship might be suitable, especially as such a discussion suggests multitudes of questions which would furnish admirable subjects for further investigation by some of my hearers.Contents:CHAPTER- I FAQS REPRESENTATION OF THE ELECTRIC FIELD BY LINES OF FORCE CHAPTER II ELECTRICAL AND BOUND MASS CHAPTER III EFFECTS DUE TO THE ACCELERATION OF FARADAY TUBES CHAPTER IV THE ATOMIC STRUCTURE OF ELECTRICITY CHAPTER V THE CONSTITUTION OF THE ATOM CHAPTER VI RADIO-ACTIVITY AND. RADIO-ACTIVE SUBSTANCES This book published in 1904 has been reformatted for the Kindle and may contain an occasional defect from the original publication or from the reformatting.

Ex-con and art forger Liam Quinn is back in Philly, up to his neck in miffed family members, suspicious police officers and a best friend he's secretly crazy about -- and who may or may not feel the same. His old man -- a veteran cop -- has pulled some strings, landing Quinn a job as a freelance insurance investigator. When a gallery heist isn't what it seems and crooks start returning stolen paintings, Quinn starts running out of people to trust. The biggest mobster in town, a sweetheart named "Vin The Shin," is calling him out; a steady string of lowlifes want his head, and the local police think he's hiding something. But hey, when trouble comes knocking? That's when Quinn Checks In."L.H. Thomson did a great job with this novel. Quinn is not your ordinary Private Eye." - Reflections of A Bookworm"LH Thomson has hit the jackpot with his main character, Liam Quinn." - Diana Hockley

She has never met anyone outside of Beacon Hill where she lives-until the day a strange bird comes to the hill, stays a while, and then moves on. Soon after, Luna and her sisters are ready to fill their nests with eggs. To care for her eggs, Luna must sleep on the ground in her nest at night instead of in the trees, placing her life in danger. Her motherly instincts to protect her clutch of eggs come in handy when a fox causes chaos one night. But what will happen when the eggs finally hatch and reveal tiny baby turkeys? Wild About Luna is the delightful tale of a special turkey's adventures as she becomes a mother, fiercely protects her young, and realizes there is no place like home.
