John Granville's first book is unique on several counts. First, it's not simply a history of science, but rather a history of our evolving unerstanding of motion. It's unique in the detailed explanations given to common scientific riddles-explanations aimed to help students avoid catastrophic collisions with these concepts in college. It's unique in that it resents the philosophies on which the major scientific paradigm shifts rest. It's unique in its presentation from Thomas Kuhn's point of view (i.e., his concept of world view and paradigm shifts as presented in his classic work The Structure of Scientific Revolutions). The book begins with an informal discussion of Kuhn's notion of world view, and various concepts relevant to his thesis concerning the nature of scientific revolutions; but, the Discovery of Motion proper begins with ancient Egyptian and Greek preparations for Aristotle (here the dialectic of Parmenides and Plato are given special attention). A survey of Aristotle and his science of motion follows (i.e., his theory of nature and natural philosophy). Included in this part of the book are the works of such notables as Archimedes and Ptolemy. The Copernican revolution, including the works of Galileo, Kepler and Newton is, of course, presented from the viewpoint of Kuhn's paradigm shift. Four chapters concerning Newtonian motion are the highlight of the first half of the book. It is here Granville's original aim, of explaning puzzling scientific phenomena to young students, is realized-but now this material serves another purpose. These chapters not only clarify Newton's world view but expose phenomena that were virtually invisible to the peripatetics...and will eventually expose reasons for the ambivalence and frustration that accompany scientific revolutions. Granville then turns to philosophical developments that led to our modern view of the world. This part of the book covers the evolution of empiricism from Bacon to Hume (with Descartes' rationalism thrown in for contrast). Kant's epistemology concludes this philosophical survey, deliberately leading the plot back toward the classical viewpoint. Finally, developments of the nineteenth century that led to the so-called Second Scientific Revolution are considered. The final chapter is a unique presentation of Einstein's relativity theory, where the incompatibility of this theory with Newtonian physics, and the reason why relativity must take precedence, are discussed. Granville compares the opposition to the Copernican revolution with twentieth century opposition to the Einsteinian revolution. The book reveals that, after building detailed understanding of classical Newtonian phenomena, opposition to a shift of world view is an understandable human reaction.

The movement-exploration activities described in this book are designed to appeal to primary-level children's natural instinct toward imaginative play and discovery and offer opportunities to develop physical skills in a familiar environment. The discovery of the physical self involves body-part and body-surface identification, isolated movements of body parts, ability to balance, developing an understanding of one's relationship to the environment, manipulating an object and the body into different shapes, and serial movement. The activities involve movement with such items as beanbags, chairs, paper cups, and rubber bands. A problem-solving approach is taken by offering children challenges such as "How can you make your foot, knee, and arm touch together?" or "How can you balance a hat upside-down on your head while you tiptoe backward?". Correctness of solution is not a factor, nor are student responses recorded. Body-part identification, prepositional positions (beside, between, far away), locomotor skills, directional movement, quality of motion (big, fast, sneaky) and imagination ("pretend the towel is slippery'" are general skills emphasized in the various challenges. A chart references which activities will best develop which skills. (PB)

Effective Discovery: Techniques and Strategies That Work is a comprehensive practical guide to "paper" discovery and related undertakings—discovery conferences, plans, reports, and orders; disclosures; interrogatories; requests for production; physical and mental exams; requests for admission; electronic discovery; motions; and subpoenas. This informative and eminently readable text takes litigators through the stages of discovery, addressing: discover objectives, planning, strategies, ethics, and rules; when and how to use discovery devices alone and in combination; how to assess which discovery devices will work best in your circumstances; how to draft discovery designed to get needed information; how to respond when the other side is evading—or refusing—your discovery; proportionality—assessing when enough is enough, too much, or not nearly enough; what judges want and don’t want—and the Laws of Unintended Consequences and What Goes Around, Comes Around. The book is a companion to NITA’s best-selling The Effective Deposition. Together, the two volumes provide an in-depth guide to discovery in all its forms.
