String Theory takes on one of modern physics’ most complicated and enthralling candidates for the theory of everything—a possible universal answer to all applied sciences. By examining some of the fundamentals of physics such as electricity, magnetism, and light, as well as how these elements were discovered, the book analyzes how scientists have built the still unproven theory and seeks to effectively explore all the scientific opportunities its possible existence could provide.

After publishing her lauded book Silent Spring, Rachel Carson became a household name in America. A marine biologist by training, Carson became a dedicated conservationist and her environmental writings influenced generations. Students will examine Carson’s writing and research through the use of ample primary source evidence in order to better understand one of the most influential women in science in the twentieth century.
