  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. This written text was created using AI. Back-End Development for Beginners: Build Powerful Server-Side Applications and Databases for Dynamic Websites helps young readers understand how servers and databases power modern websites. A milestone in server-side history occurred when the first web server software, CERN httpd, became public in 1991, showing how back-end work shaped the web. 
   
  Instead of telling every success story, the book zooms in on defining moments of failure, setback, and comeback to teach real problem-solving. That focus helps kids learn how to recover from mistakes, try different approaches, and build steady confidence. Parents can expect examples showing how a single fix or redesign changed the outcome of a project. 
   
  The book contains no illustrations, which encourages readers to visualize ideas and work through complex concepts in words. This approach expands vocabulary and prepares students for more advanced technical writing and documentation. 
   
  Readers will learn the practical building blocks of back-end work: request handling, APIs, data modeling, and secure authentication. The text explains why choices matter so kids can compare options and make better technical decisions. Clear examples of debugging and testing teach patience and a methodical approach. 
   
  Security basics like sanitizing input, protecting passwords, and thinking about user privacy are presented in plain language to emphasize safe habits. The book also highlights maintenance tasks like testing, updates, and backups so readers see how real projects last over time. Written in plain, direct language at an early-teen reading level, with short, focused chapters, it also stresses teamwork skills such as reading code, writing clear comments, and explaining solutions to others. Order today to give your child a clear, practical guide that builds both skill and resilience.

  CHARGE - Why Does Gravity Rule?

  Frank Close

  • 0

  Humans have long been aware of the electric and magnetic forces around us, and scientific investigation showed that the two are intimately connected as electromagnetism. Lightning shows how devastating electricity can be in nature, while humans learned to exploit the flow of negatively charged electrons that make up an electric current. In the early twentieth century, the experiments of Ernest Rutherford showed that at the heart of atoms lies a positively charged nucleus. The positive charge comes from protons. Atoms are neutral because the charges of the electron and proton cancel out. 
   
   
   
  The charges of the proton and electron are opposite and equal, even though the proton is bigger. But why are they equal? This is one of the deepest unresolved puzzles of physics. Frank Close takes us on a journey into the quantum subatomic world of particles. He describes the strong and weak forces that operate alongside electromagnetism, the color and flavor charges, as well as the parallels between them, giving hints of a deeper unity. Seeking an answer to why matter is neutral brings us to fundamental forces and particles, the Standard Model, the Higgs boson, and implications of grand unification for the stability of matter. Close packs in a rich account of our current understanding and the latest ambitious experiments to probe further, and test theoretical possibilities.

  When the Wheels Come Off - More...

  Brian Cunningham's popular first book, Under the Bonnet, was a colourful and humorous collection of memories of his time as a car mechanic in the 1970s and '80s. When he wrote it, he was sure he had put everything of interest down, but it turns out there were quite a few escapades he'd forgotten to mention. Time, then, for part two . . .
  
  When the Wheels Come Off is a joyous return, covering what he missed first time round: cars fixed and some broken, fads and crazes, crashes and scrapes and near misses, evolutionary dead-ends in technology, underhanded practices and downright skulduggery, run-ins with management, the tools used, the cars 'stolen' and scrapyards visited. A lively and engaging trip back to the workshop.
