Slow LightSlow Light is a popular treatment of today's astonishing breakthroughs in the science of light. Even though we don't understand light's quantum mysteries, we can slow it to a stop and speed it up beyond its Einsteinian speed limit, 186,000 miles sec; use it for quantum telecommunications; teleport it; manipulate it to create invisibility; and perhaps generate hydrogen fusion power with it. All this is lucidly presented for non scientists who wonder
Slow Light is a popular treatment of today's astonishing breakthroughs in the science of light. Even though we don't understand light's quantum mysteries, we can slow it to a stop and speed it up beyond its Einsteinian speed limit, 186,000 miles/sec; use it for quantum telecommunications; teleport it; manipulate it to create invisibility; and perhaps generate hydrogen fusion power with it. All this is lucidly presented for non-scientists who wonder about teleportation, Harry Potter invisibility cloaks, and other fantastic outcomes. Slow Light shows how the real science and the fantasy inspire each other, and projects light's incredible future.Emory physicist Sidney Perkowitz discusses how we are harnessing the mysteries of light into technologies like lasers and fiber optics that are transforming our daily lives. Science-fiction fantasies like Harry Potter's invisibility cloak are turning into real possibilities. Please click here for more info.Shipping Notes

Great for all ages
Format: Hardcover
The first time I read this book was when I was student teaching. I was going through a time of change in my life and this book really hit me in my feelings. I started to tear up! I love this book so much that I bought my own personal copy of this book in 2016 and read it to my students every year. It is by far my favorite children's book.

Terrific seasonal book that can be read year-round
Format: Hardcover
I always love a seasonal book that can be read year-round, and much like Sweep, Little Tree is a wonderful fall book that isn’t so fall-themed it can only be read in September and October. A story of change, growing up, and letting go, a story of encouraging friends through words, presence, and patience, Little Tree will please children and adults alike! Ages 5-8.

So simple, yet so emotional.
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book initially because the author/illustrator is from my hometown, and because he is one of the best illustrators on the planet. I thought it would be cute - and it is adorable, but it really hits home. I am a mom who has a young adult child and one teenager. The time is quickly approaching when they will leave the nest and the story of the little tree holding tightly to his leaves just brought me to tears. It is a precious book and fitting for little children and adults alike.

This book is wonderful!!
Format: Hardcover
This book is wonderful!!! It discusses about the fear of letting go and how that can prevent one from growing and moving forward. Even adults can take away meaning from this book. I have bought this for a gift for a couple of friends' childrens and recommended to some teachers. Definitely worth adding to your child's personal library collection or to the classrooms.
