    Astrogeology is the branch of geology that applies the principles and methods of Earth-based geological sciences to the study of celestial bodies, particularly planets, moons, and asteroids. It combines the exploration of planetary surfaces with an understanding of their internal structure, composition, and the forces that shape them. Astrogeology serves as a key discipline in unraveling the mysteries of the solar system and beyond, providing insights into the processes that govern the formation and evolution of planets and other celestial bodies. 
    The significance of astrogeology lies in its ability to broaden our knowledge of the universe and our place within it. By studying the geological features of other planets, moons, and small bodies, scientists can draw comparisons to Earth, shedding light on both the uniqueness and the commonalities of planets throughout the solar system. Understanding the geology of celestial bodies is crucial not only for scientific curiosity but also for practical purposes such as space exploration, resource mining, and the potential for human colonization of other worlds. 
    Throughout history, humanity has been intrigued by the heavens, with many early civilizations interpreting celestial phenomena through myth and observation. As space exploration advanced, the quest to understand the geology of other planets became central to unraveling the history of the solar system. The first space missions to the Moon, such as NASA's Apollo program, provided tangible geological data from an extraterrestrial body, leading to the realization that planetary bodies undergo similar geological processes to those observed on Earth, though often at a different scale or in altered environments. The study of these processes has since been expanded to other planets, including Mars, Venus, and the outer giants like Jupiter and Saturn.

    DESCRIPTION 
    In the modern era, we are dependent on technology for almost every aspect of our lives. Computers are a major part of this technology assisted life, as we have now developed ways to do most of the essential tasks on a computer. Computer science is no longer limited to theories and lectures, it has now become an important part of our lives. 
    
    Touchpad PLAY (Version 2.0) series, based on Windows 10 and MS Office 2016, is designed carefully keeping in mind the overall growth of the children. The simple and step-by-step approach used in this book makes the content very easy to understand for the students. 
    
    
    The students will face a global competition once they step out of the school so they should be updated with the latest technologies which holds a promising future in the times to come. The best way to learn is, to do it through fun filled activities. To make content interesting through the course of the book, we have included key features like Student Corner, Tech Funda, Clickipedia, Comp Caution, Exercise, In The Lab (Subject Enrichment), Teacher’s Corner, Worksheet, Test Sheet, Project Work, Explore More, Keyboard Shortcuts and Glossary. 
    
    Sample questions of Orange Global Olympiad (Cyber) have been included to promote awareness about the national level competition. 
    
    These features will ensure better learning, assessment, evaluation and enable children to take their knowledge beyond the classroom. 
    
    
    We hope that the book enables the children to learn the concepts with not only the purpose of gaining knowledge but also to be able to find its applications. We look forward to any suggestions for improving the book.

    Not long ago, J. Matthew Sleeth had a fantastic life and a great job as chief of the medical staff at a large hospital. He was living the American dream—until he saw an increasing number of his patients suffering from cancer, asthma, and other chronic diseases. He began to suspect that the Earth and its inhabitants were in deep trouble. Turning to Jesus for guidance, Sleeth discovered how the scriptural lessons of personal responsibility, simplicity, and stewardship could be applied to modern life. The Sleeths have since sold their big home and given away more than half of what they once owned. In Serve God, Save the Planet, Sleeth shares the joy of adopting a less materialistic, healthier lifestyle, stronger relationships, and richer spiritual lives. With the storytelling ease of James Herriot and the logical clarity of C. S. Lewis, Sleeth lays out the rationale for environmentally responsible life changes and a how-to guide for making those changes.“Creation is groaning. And Matthew Sleeth has responded. Serve God, Save the Planet is not an alarmist call of despair, but a hopeful invitation to re-imagine the way we live. Sleeth’s words have the urgency of an ER crisis coupled with the deep faith that the Church is ready to join God in healing the wounded world.”--Shane Claiborne, activist and author of The Irresistible Revolution.

    The two titles in this bundle are: 
    Agriculture - Agriculture stands at the heart of human civilization, sustaining populations, economies, and ecosystems around the globe. As the primary source of food and materials for countless industries, agriculture is fundamental to our daily lives. Yet, as demand for food and resources grows, traditional farming practices have come under scrutiny for their impact on land, water, and ecosystems. This situation has sparked a profound exploration into how agriculture can evolve to meet future needs without compromising environmental health or resource availability. In response to these challenges, sustainable agriculture has emerged as a guiding framework. Rather than depleting resources, sustainable agriculture seeks to work in harmony with nature, fostering productive systems that can endure and even improve over time.  
    Environmental Science - Environmental Science is an interdisciplinary field that integrates various scientific disciplines to study the natural world and the impact of human activities on it. This branch of science explores the complex interactions between living organisms, their physical surroundings, and the broader ecosystems they form. The primary goal of environmental science is to understand how natural systems function, identify environmental problems, and develop strategies for addressing these issues. At its core, environmental science seeks to answer fundamental questions about the earth's resources, how they are used, and how human actions influence the balance of ecosystems. It draws from biology, chemistry, physics, geology, and social sciences to provide a comprehensive understanding of the environment.
