The History Hour Book order

This book is about two great scientists. Isaac Newton’s main body of work was as a physicist and mathematician. He was a part of a scientific revolution in the 17th century which would fundamentally change the way that people would see the world. In the field of optics, he would advance our understanding of light and how we saw it. Albert Einstein was an outstanding physician and mathematician of the 20th century. He was a pure genius who created a formula that would build a bomb capable of killing thousands at a time. Albert learned to play the violin. He could play a few notes on the piano or the violin, and then he would jot down notes on some theory. Einstein won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922. And much more! In mechanics Newton would create his famous three laws of motion but it’s in physics that he became most well-known for his understanding of gravity, and in mathematics for his discovery of calculus and his writing perhaps the single most important scientific book of all-time, the ‘Principia’ which is still referenced today. As far as the way Einstein lived his life, well, read on, and you be the judge to see if you think he had a full and happy life. Einstein’s story awaits you on the pages ahead.

The people of the Mayan civilization had many deities and engaged in human sacrifice. However, it was neither a sport nor so frequent a practice as seen in other cultures. The Maya were true believers in spiritual transformation and a supernatural journey that leads to the heaven-world of Tamoanchan. Thus, a human sacrifice wasn
