World Population GrowthAlthough the population of the world in ancient times can only be very

roughly estimated, it is believed that there were perhaps 50 mil people in the world in 1000 bce. The United Nations Population Division estimates a �gure of 300 mil for 1 ce; this chart shows estimated population growth from that time onward as estimated by the UN.

While �gures for other centuries vary depending on source, all sources indicate that world population began growing more rapidly in the 18th and 19th centuries and grew much more rapidly in the 20th century. Acc-ording to UN estimates, the world population reached 1 bil in 1804; rose to 2 bil 123 years later, in 1927; to 3 bil 33 years after that, in 1960; to 4 bil in 1974; to 5 bil in 1987; and to 6 bil in 1999.

In midterm elections Nov. 2, 2010, Republicans picked up at least 60 seats in the House of Representatives, the most gained by either party since 1948, and well beyond the 39 the party needed for a majority. The turnover dealt a strong blow to the administration of Democratic Pres. Barack Obama and put committee chairmanships and leadership positions in Republican hands. House minority leader John Boehner (R, OH) became the presumed Speaker of the House. A number of veteran and moderate Democrats were voted out of of�ce.

In the Senate, Republicans fell short of the 10-seat gain needed for a majority, with Majority Leader Harry Reid (D, NV) fendingoff a challenge from Tea Party-backed candidate Sharron Angle (R). The GOP picked up six Democratic seats, including Pres.Obama’s former seat in Illinois, as well as those at stake in Arkansas, Indiana, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, withone state, Alaska, left to be decided in the weeks following the election.

The division of power between a Republican House and Democratic Senate and White House created challenges for both partiesand increased chances for gridlock. Congress appeared more polarized, with fewer moderate Blue Dog Democrats and more TeaParty-allied Republicans who had campaigned against Democratic policies, notably the health care reform legislation passed inMar. 2010. In a press conference on Nov. 3, Pres. Obama admitted he had received a “shellacking” and said he did not want torelitigate past disputes but would “work harder at building consensus.”

Republicans also gained in state governorships, especially in the Midwest, where they won in Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Ohio,and Wisconsin. In addition, the GOP claimed control of at least 55 of the nation’s 99 state legislative chambers, up from 36. Moststate legislatures will be authorized to redraw congressional districts in accordance with 2010 census results, and most governorshave veto power over these plans.

The Political ClimateThe weak economy left Democrats particularly vulner-

able in 2010. Obama had come to of�ce in Jan. 2009 amidhigh hopes. However, despite a $787 bil stimulus measure,passed by Congress in Feb. 2009, job recovery was anemic.The unemployment rate rose above 10% in Oct-Dec. 2009and remained static at just under 10% through most of 2010.Home foreclosures continued at a rapid rate, especially inSunbelt states.

A Gallup poll, among others, showed that the economy was the public’s number-one concern overall in Oct. It ranked con-sistently above health care and far above the war in Afghani-stan, a topic seldom brought up by candidates of either party. Democrats blamed the continued economic downturn on Bush administration policies and claimed that the stimulus and other measures—criticized by Republicans as costly and counter-productive (and by progressives as too unambitious)—kept the economy from sinking into depression.

Obama’s approval ratings had already fallen below 50% inJan. 2010 when Democrats received a big jolt: a little knownRepublican state senator, Scott Brown, won a special elec-tion for the seat long held by the late Sen. Ted Kennedy (D)in heavily Democratic Massachusetts. A lackluster cam-paign by state Atty. Gen. Martha Coakley (D) was partly toblame, while Brown’s campaign emphasized the candidate’spopulism and independence rather than his party label. Hismessage of �scal responsibility and promise to vote againstthe health care bill then pending in Congress also seemed toresonate. Brown gave the Republican Senate minority their41st vote, which could prevent Democrats from overridingRepublican �libusters.

Big MoneyThe nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics (CRP) esti-

mated that total spending on the 2010 congressional electionswould approach $4 bil, more than $1 bil more than was spenton the 2006 midterms. Most of the money ¦owed from threesources: individual House and Senate campaigns, nationalpolitical parties, and outside interest groups. Out of an esti-mated $3.2 bil raised by mid-Oct., about $1.7 bil came fromthe campaigns, $1.1 bil from the parties, and over $400 milfrom outside groups. The CRP estimated that Democrats andRepublicans were raising similar amounts of money from thecampaigns and parties combined, but that Republicans weregetting more money from special interest groups, such as theU.S. Chamber of Commerce, with pro-Republican groupsheavily outspending Democratic special interests.

Special interest groups were reaping bene�ts from a Jan. 2010 Supreme Court ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. On free speech grounds, the contro-versial 5-4 decision overturned some key campaign �nance restrictions and allowed corporations, labor unions, and other interest groups to use their own funds to �nance campaign ads (though not to contribute directly to individual campaigns).

The Tea PartyBrown received support from the Tea Party movement, as

would many other candidates in the 2010 general election. Theloosely organized populist coalition emerged in early 2009 asan outlet for anger over the government bailouts of �nancialinstitutions and the economic stimulus package, and gatheredstrength through social networking, rallies, and protests. TheTea Party tended to unite around �scal issues and belief in theoverreach of the federal government, but many of its activistswere also social conservatives. A CBS/NY Times poll found inApr. that around 18% of Americans supported the Tea Partymovement; of these, 50-60% were Republicans, with most ofthe rest calling themselves independents. More than six monthslater, 21% of voters said they had “strong support” for the TeaParty, and another 19% had “some support,” according to APexit polls on election day.

Tea Party-backed candidates saw mixed results in the 2010 general election. In Florida, Marco Rubio (R), a 39-year-old for-mer speaker of the state House, won the day for the Tea Party with 49% of the vote in a three-way race. Rubio defeated Rep. Kendrick Meek (D) and sitting Gov. Charlie Crist, a moderate Republican who had supported the economic stimulus bill and ran as an independent after dropping in Republican polls. The son of Cuban exiles, Rubio enjoyed Tea Party support thanks to his emphasis on �scal restraint and limited government in a state that was still troubled by the economic downturn and foreclosure crisis.

In Kentucky, ophthalmologist Rand Paul (R), a Tea Party favorite, easily outpolled state Atty. Gen. Jack Conway (D) in Nov. Like his father, U.S. Rep. Ron Paul (R, TX), Rand Paul campaigned as a libertarian who believes in radically reduced government. He came under �re brie¦y for expressing reserva-tions about the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which he said should not apply to private businesses. Conway’s controversial attack ad in Oct., bringing up a Rand Paul college incident supposedly implying worship of “Aqua Buddha,” may have back�red with voters, the majority of whom called the negative ad inappropri-ate in a late Oct. poll.

But while the Tea Party movement served to �re up the GOP base in some states, in others the Tea Party seemed to drag Republicans too far away from the center to attract independent voters. Some moderate candidates fell in Republican primaries to candidates with less experience who enjoyed Tea Party sup-port. In Delaware’s Senate GOP primary in Sept., Tea Party favorite Christine O’Donnell, a political neophyte endorsed by former Vice Pres. nominee Sarah Palin, eliminated Rep. and for-mer Gov. Mike Castle, who had been widely favored to win the seat. O’Donnell’s candidacy quickly boosted the lagging poll numbers for county executive Chris Coons (D). Lacking politi-cal experience and with rhetoric well to the right of blue-state Delaware, O’Donnell lost in Nov. by a wide margin.

A Tea Party-backed outsider also saw narrow defeat in the Nevada race between Sen. Harry Reid (D) and former state Assemblywoman Sharron Angle (R). The state had the highest unemployment and foreclosure rates in the nation, and Reid, always a lackluster campaigner, had become unpopular. He was saved with the help of strong Hispanic and union support—and

THE #1 BEST-SELLINGALMANAC FOR KIDS.

October 2010.

Throughout history, artists have painted pictures of nature (calledlandscapes), pictures of people (called portraits), and pictures of flowers in vases, food, and other objects (known as still lifes). Today many artists create pictures that do not look like anything in the real world. These are examples of abstract artC Photography, too, is a form of art. Photos record both the

commonplace and the exotic and help us look at events in new ways.C Sculpture is a three-dimensional form made from clay, stone, metal,

or other material. Sculptures can be large, like the Statue of Liberty. Some are realistic. Others have no form you can recognize.

C Contemporary artists today often use computers and video screens to create art. Some video art uses 20 or 30 video screens that show different colors or images to create one big work of art.

WHAT IS ART?The answer is up for debate. People who study this question are studying aesthetics (ess-THET-ics), which is a kind of philosophy. Usually art is something that an artist interprets for an audience. Art reveals something that you can see, that then makes you think and feel.

ART Q&A

DIFFERENT KINDS OF ART

WHEN I SEE A PAINTING IN A MUSEUM, WHAT MIGHT I SAY ABOUT IT?Look at the painting without thinking too hard about it. How does it make you feel? Happy, sad, confused, silly? Study the painting and try to discover the colors, shapes, and textures that create those feelings in you.

Look at the information card next to the work of art. Usually, it will tell you who painted it, when it was made, and what media (materials) were used. You can compare it to other works of art by the same artist, from the same time, or in the same medium.

IS ARTISTIC TALENT SOMETHING YOU ARE BORN WITH OR SOMETHING YOU CAN LEARN?Learning to draw is a skill like writing or playing a sport. Some people are naturally more talented, but anyone can learn to draw. Even people with severe physical disabilities can make masterpieces.

2 ICHIRO SUZUKI

1-0, Mariners.

At his second at-bat, in the third inning, Ichiro hit a single,

then promptly stole second. That time he was left stranded,

when Beltré struck out to end the inning. By the eighth inning,

the score was 2-2, and Ichiro was leading off again. What fol-

lowed was “pretty vintage” Ichiro, said Seattle manager Mike

Hargrove. Suzuki hit the top of a hard-breaking slider and

drove it all of about 15 feet (4.6 meters). By the time Yankee

catcher Kelly Stinnett (regular catcher Jorge Posada was on the

disabled list with a hurt finger) and Johnson converged on the

Ichiro Suzuki of the Seattle Mariners slid safely into second after stealing the base in the eighth inning of a game on July 19, 2006, against the New York Yankees. The hurried throw from Yankee catcher Kelly Stinnett bounced in front of second baseman Miguel Cairo (left)and rolled into center field. Suzuki took third base on the error.

Criminal Investigations

Consulting editor John L. French is a crimescene supervisor at the Baltimore Police CrimeLaboratory.

Crime is a fact of life, despite the best effortsof law enforcement officials to prevent it. Oncea crime is committed, police work to investi-gate, identify, and apprehend the culprit, andprovide the appropriate evidence needed for a conviction. Crime-fighting experts are con-stantly developing new techniques and tech-nologies to make it harder for criminals tocommit crimes or to escape unpunished whenthey do. Though these crime-fighting practicesare often dramatized in popular movies andtelevision shows, the true-life examples areoften even more fascinating.

Designed to be informative and entertaining,each title in the high-interest CriminalInvestigations set looks at a key area ofcrime, how and why it occurs, what investiga-tive techniques police use to prevent or solveit, and how it is processed by the legal sys-tem. Following an overview of the type ofcrime, successive chapters detail key cases,examining the evidence in each one andexplaining its significance. Special emphasis isplaced on landmark advances and precedents.Sidebars focus on vital aspects of investiga-tion, such as ballistics testing, documentauthentication, fingerprinting, and police pro-cedure. Each fact-based book presents casestudies in a “you-are-there” style and strivesto inspire readers’ imaginations.

The three-volume UnderstandingPhilosophy set introduces readers to theenduring questions asked by Western philoso-phers throughout time: Who am I? What hap-pens after I die? Why does evil exist? Is therea God? How did the universe come to be? Theillustrated volumes trace Western philosophy’sevolution from ancient and Hellenistic thoughtthrough the medieval and modern periods tocontemporary thinkers. Complemented by abibliography, index, glossary, and chaptersummaries, each engaging book also featuresshort biographies of key philosophers and thephilosophers they influenced.

Understanding Philosophy

Ancient and Hellenistic ThoughtAncient thinkers provided the foundationsof the philosophical process, examining theuniverse’s purpose, as well as humankind’splace within it. Ancient and HellenisticThought covers pre-Socratic, Classical, andHellenistic philosophers and their theories,illuminating some of the first and mostenduring answers given about the nature of the world and those who live in it. Theirprofound answers to these inquiries haveenlightened for more than 2,000 years.©2008 HC 978-0-7910-8739-8

Medieval and Modern PhilosophyMedieval and Modern Philosophy coversthe philosophical ideas of the medieval age as well as the Renaissance, theProtestant Reformation, and the ContinentalRationalists. Through thoughtful examina-tions of key philosophers and their theories,readers will learn about the exploration ofhumankind’s relationship with God, the riseof science as an influence in philosophicalthought, and the universal debate of Faithversus Reason.©2008 HC 978-0-7910-8740-4

Contemporary ThoughtFraming the evolution of post-Enlightenmentphilosophy, Contemporary Thought beginswith a discussion of the British Empiricistsand Kant’s analysis of the capacity of rea-son. Biographies and examinations of theIdealists, Materialists, Utilitarians,Individualists, Analytics, Phenomenologists,and Existentialists reveal how philosophersfrom each of these schools of thoughtsought to explain the increasingly moresecular and industrialized world of the 18th,19th, and 20th centuries. These thinkers’conclusions prove that modern-day philos-ophy has continued to deepen and expandhuman knowledge.©2008 HC 978-0-7910-8792-3

Booklist

Victoria will have included the loss of

many beautiful and obviously

irreplaceable species.

Popular Aquarium FishOwing to the wide range of species

available, cichlids have been popular

aquarium fish for over a hundred

years.At first, all were collected from

the wild. However, it soon became

obvious that many species could be

bred easily in aquariums.Therefore,

very soon, the percentage of captive-

bred cichlids increased dramatically.

It also became apparent that some

species produced different color and

fin varieties.These were therefore

selected and developed further, and

the popularity of cichlids rocketed.

Two types, angelfish and discus,

proved to be the best at producing

different variations on the basic

theme.As a result, numerous varieties

of both these fish are available, to the

extent that comparatively few are

now collected from the wild.

The same techniques have been

applied to other types of cichlids,

such as the African rift lake species.

However, these fish are so spectacular

and variable, anyway, that they have

not been developed to the same

73

BONY FISH

therefore found nowhere else; such

species are referred to as endemic.

Nile Perch DisasterIt is therefore a major tragedy that

many of the cichlids which are

endemic to Lake Victoria have been

wiped out following the introduction

of a large predatory fish, the Nile

perch, into the lake in the 1950s and

1960s.The perch was introduced as a

source of food for the lake people.

However, it devastated the stocks of

cichlids, and possibly as many as

50–90 percent have been eaten

according to some sources.

Ironically, as the stocks of cichlids

dwindled, the Nile perch had to turn

to other foods, such as shrimp, other

fish and, significantly, its own young.

Eventually, populations level

themselves out and a balance of sorts

is achieved. Unfortunately, part of the

cost of attaining this balance in Lake

72

CICHLIDS

DID YOU KNOW?

The Mozambique mouthbrooderhas been introduced into manycountries as a food fish but hasspread to the extent that it is nowconsidered a pest in certainareas.

Most cichlids have brown-tippedteeth which look as if they havebeen stained by the water or thefood they eat—although this is notthe case.

Some African rift lake cichlidsfeed on fish scales and fish eyes!

EGG DUMMIESMouthbrooding cichlids lay relatively few eggs,which must be fertilized. Unless this happens,the female will simply incubate a mouthful ofeggs that will never develop. The solution isboth simple and effective. Males have one ormore spots that look like eggs (egg dummies) ontheir belly (anal) fin (shown above). Every timethe female releases a few eggs, she turns roundand picks them up in her mouth. She also tries topick up the egg dummies on the male’s anal fin.This stimulates the male to release sperm, whichthe female also sucks in, thus fertilizing the eggsshe is already carrying in her mouth.

The African

moorii cichlid is

one of several

species that

broods the

developing eggs

in the mouth.

The red

flower horn is a

hybrid cichlid

created by mating

several other types

of cichlid together.

Angelfish are colorful residents of coral reefs thatchange their colors and patterns as they grow. Some-times, the differences between young and adults are sostriking that they look like totally different species.

ANGELFISH

Along with their close relatives, the butterflyfish,

angelfish are among the most visible inhabitants

of tropical coral reefs.Most occur in shallow water and

are therefore seen virtually on every reef dive, however

brief.This does not mean that all species occur in large

numbers, or in shallow water, however. Some, like the

masked angelfish, are not frequently seen on reef dives

because they live in deep water—in this case, the

preferred depth stretches from around 60 feet down to

275 feet. Others, like the resplendent angelfish, are not

often seen because they are truly rare, or are only

found in a few places—in this case, around Ascension

Island in the southeastern Pacific.

Summer BreedersIt is quite normal for a single male to have a harem

consisting of several females. During the breeding

season, which usually extends over the summer

months, he will breed with each of his females in turn

in spawning sessions lasting eight to ten minutes.

First, the male will mount a spectacular display some

distance off the bottom in which he stretches out all

his fins. One of the females will respond to this

invitation and will rise to meet him.As she approaches,

the male will nuzzle the female’s belly. Following this,

the pair will perform a short, high-speed swim during

which sperm and eggs are released.As soon as this

happens, the pair dash back to the shelter of the reef.

ANGELFISH

Family: Pomacanthidae

Order: Perciformes

Species: Around 85

Where do they live?: Widelydistributed in all tropical areas;nearly 90 percent of all angelfish arefound in the Indo-Pacific

Habitat: Most species occur inshallow, clear-water tropical reefs;a few are found in deeper water

Size: From 2.4 inches (6 cm) to24 inches (61 cm)

Coloration: Adults usually brightlycolored; juveniles often have a deep-blue body overlaid with white patterns

Diet: Most species feed oninvertebrates found on coral reefsand on algae, and a few feed onsmall swimming invertebrates(zooplankton)

Breeding: Eggs and sperm arereleased into the water and areabandoned; hatching takes 18 to 30hours; larvae live among the planktonfor a period

Status: Only 1 species, theresplendent angelfish, is believed tobe threatened in the wild

Fact File

The queen angelfish of the Caribbean and Atlantic

gets its name from the speckled, blue-ringed mark

above the head, which resembles a crown.

In AnimalCourtship, learn the various ways speciesattract mates, including by singing, dancing, glowing, and even attacking.by Krista West©2009 HC 978-1-60413-090-4

Animal DefensesInsects that look like leaves, snakes thatplay dead, fish that fly, and toads with poi-sonous skin—these animals are among themany creatures that defend themselves infascinating ways. Almost every animal ishunted as food by some other kind of ani-mal and has developed ways to defenditself against predators. Animal Defensespresents the wide variety of physical andbehavioral adaptations used by animals intheir struggle to survive and shows howscientists continue to make new discover-ies about the age-old maneuvering betweenpredator and prey.by Christina Wilsdon©2009 HC 978-1-60413-089-8

Animal Hunting and FeedingAll animals have to eat, but feeding behav-ior goes far beyond predators and prey.Animals have a variety of ways to find food.Some sit and wait for food to come to them.Others chase or trap their food. Other animals are scavengers and decomposers,breaking down the leftovers of other animals’meals. Animal Hunting and Feeding explainsthese various techniques as well as theimportance of food chains and food webs.by Natalie Goldstein©2009 HC 978-1-60413-143-7

Invasive Aquatic and Wetland AnimalsOne of the biggest threats to the SanFrancisco Bay’s estuarine community is a tiny crab with furry claws. The Chinesemitten crab may sound benign, but its voracious appetite and escalating popula-tion is compromising the ecology of thisonce-thriving system. Invasive Aquatic and Wetland Animals explains how thesecreatures are introduced, how they affectaquatic systems, and what is being done to contain them. ©2007 HC 978-0-7910-9129-6

Invasive MicrobesToday’s world of travel helps even the tiniest of organisms—microbes—find their way to new environments. Influenzavirus A,or avian influenza (also known as bird flu),which originated in Asia, has steadily madeits way to new countries as a result of commerce. This well-timed resource goesbeyond the headlines in explaining thepotentially devastating impact of invasiveviruses, bacteria, protists, and fungi. Thisbook evaluates scenarios for success in the escalating battle for containment.©2007 HC 978-0-7910-9131-9

Invasive Terrestrial AnimalsThe brown tree snake was introduced toGuam with little knowledge of how it wouldbehave in its new tropical environment.Today nine of the 12 forest bird species inGuam are extinct as a result of this snake’sintroduction. Like many invasive terrestrialanimals, the brown tree snake does not have a natural predator; as such, its popu-lation continues to grow. Invasive TerrestrialAnimals explores the role these invasiveland animals play and their impact onnative fauna and the local economies thatexpend enormous resources to containtheir explosive populations. ©2007 HC 978-0-7910-9127-2

Invasive Terrestrial PlantsInvasive terrestrial plants are responsible for drying up rivers, poisoning horses, andpushing native plants to extinction. Forexample, kudzu, from Japan, was planted in the U.S. as a forage crop and to controlerosion. Now this fast-growing vine issmothering native vegetation and taking over bridges and power lines throughoutthe South. Invasive Terrestrial Plants identi-fies the worst of these plant invaders,explaining the ecological and economic toll they exact, how they are introducedfrom all over the world, and what is beingdone to stop their spread. ©2007 HC 978-0-7910-9128-9


Invasive Aquatic and Wetland PlantsAquatic systems are some of the most bio-logically diverse; however, invasive plantsthat grow in these areas challenge thisdiversity. For example, purple loosestrife, a herbaceous perennial, is the equivalent of biological pavement when it invades awetland by displacing all native species and creating a stand so dense ducks canno longer use it to breed. Invasive Aquaticand Wetland Plants details the competitivestrategies of destructive plants in theseinaccessible areas, as well as the latesttechniques being used for their control.©2007 eBook 978-1-4381-1974-8

Society has a profound impact on the progressand acceptance of new science—and viceversa. For instance, over recent years, eventsindicate that citizens’ views have helped changethe focus of the research and developmentcarried out by both the U.S. Department ofAgriculture and the Environmental ProtectionAgency. Likewise, citizen actions have influ-enced the direction of the activities of organi-zations such as the World Bank in their effortsto improve agriculture and living conditions inthe developing nations of the world.

The Science and Society set not only high-lights the “what” of science, but also the“why,” the “how,” and the “who.” Each volumeprovides an accessible, authoritative view ofthe history and current state of a particularissue. With a focus on humanizing science,this set brings each subject—from air pollu-tion to nuclear power to natural medicines—to life by showing students all the factors thatmotivate research and revealing how scientistscompete and collaborate with one another.By exploring the connections between scienceand society, especially in controversial areas,each book illustrates both how society sup-ports science and how science in returnenhances society.

Many diseases and disorders have a geneticunderpinning. Sometimes, the relationshipbetween a defective gene and a disease is well known to scientists, as is the case inhemophilia, cystic fibrosis, and Huntington’sdisease. For many other diseases and disor-ders, it is believed that genes, together withenvironmental factors, cause the condition,such as for diabetes, asthma, and Parkinson’sdisease. In this full-color set, Genes andDisease describes what scientists know andwhat they hope to learn in the near futureabout the relationship between genes and disease. While discussing the technologiesand experimental methods that have led to our current understanding of a particular disorder, each title details the recent advancesin medicine and molecular biology that mayunlock the mysteries of genetic disease. Theset surveys existing and potential future treat-ments, explores possible cures, and covers theethical concerns of treating genetic diseases.Each title features additional references,suggestions for further reading, Web sites,a glossary, and an index.
