Books with author Sam J. Miller

[Young Adult Fiction (Ages 12-17)]Perfect for fans of David Arnold and Robyn Schneider, Samuel Miller's stunning debut follows Arthur Louis Pullman III as he embarks on a cross-country train journey to chase the secrets of his namesake grandfather, a famous Salingeresque novelist. Arthur Louis Pullman III lives in his grandfather's shadow. The first Arthur Louis Pullman, an iconic Salingeresque author who wrote the American classic A World Away, died in Ohio a week after he disappeared from his family's California home. What happened in that week -- and how much his actions were influenced by his Alzheimer's -- remains a mystery. After Arthur is stripped of a college scholarship and begins to lose his grip on reality, he's sent away to live with his aunt and uncle. There, Arthur discovers a journal written by his grandfather, the narrator pining for something he can't quite understand and the final sentence containing a train route and a destination. Eager to escape his own demons, Arthur embarks on a cross-country train ride, guided only by cryptic clues left in his grandfather's dementia-influenced writing. But as Arthur gets closer to the real story, his journey is complicated by a shaky alliance with a strange girl who's keeping secrets of her own and by escalating run-ins with a dangerous Pullman fan base. Arthur's not the only one chasing a legacy, and how much will he risk to find out the truth?

About the Book Mathematics is the study of such problems as quantity, structure, space, and change. Mathematicians seek out and implement patterns to formulate new theories; they resolve the veracity of theories by applying mathematical proofs. When mathematical frameworks provide good replications of actual events, then mathematics can improve our predictions about natural phenomena. Using theoretical abstraction and logic, over thousands of years mathematics has developed from simple calculation and measurement, to the systematic study of the shapes and dynamics of physical objects.
