Analysis
A 163-page National Curriculum 2006 general science text whose twelve chapters had to be reconstructed from figure numbering and learning-outcome openers because the contents page did not survive OCR. It is one of the least eventful books in the corpus for social analysis: the only religious touch anywhere is a one-line credit that a Muslim scientist, Al-Haitham, invented the pinhole camera, which is what holds A1 at 2 rather than 1. The gender score of 5 is absence-based but unusually well founded for this corpus, because the book is English-medium and countable: five female tokens in 24,506 words. It is also the least activity-dense science book examined, with only five numbered activities against dozens in the equivalent Punjab and Sindh volumes, suggesting a demonstration-led rather than inquiry-led design. Treat the chapter list as approximate and remember that this is a reprint of a 2006-era book, not a current one.
Evidence tier
scanned English OCR — quotation permitted after re-verification by exact string match.
Measured scores
Axes not listed were not scored for this book — coverage is uneven by design. All axes run 1–5, where 1 is the secular/pluralist/open pole. See the method.
Evidence recorded 1
Three kinds, deliberately styled apart. A quotation is verbatim wording and is only ever taken from English-medium text. An observation describes structure or theme — the only kind permitted for Urdu and Sindhi material, which this project never quotes. An absence is a negative result: a probe was run and returned nothing, which is the weakest claim made anywhere on this site.

Every passage recorded for this book is shown above — nothing is withheld or truncated. Each item has a permanent anchor, so a single piece of evidence can be linked and disputed on its own.
Findings that cite this book 1
Contenthigh confidence
Punjab's six science books and eight readers contain no Muslim-scientist material at all, where Sindh and KP carry it across seven or eight books each. But the strand survives in Punjab's History 7, in a section on the Golden Age of Islam. It changed subject, not curriculum.
A finding states and cites; it does not argue. The argument is in the studies. Where a finding has counter-evidence it is printed above, in the same block, because a finding that hides its counter-evidence is a worse finding rather than a stronger one.

The checksum is of the exact file these findings were computed from, so anyone can prove they hold the same bytes. The retrieval date is when this copy was fetched to the project's own disk, not a formal web-archive capture. Boards and mirrors reprint and reorganise continuously, so a source link may not resolve, and may not serve the same edition if it does. The bibliographic record above — board, class, subject, medium, curriculum, edition, approval reference and page count — is what identifies the book; the link is a convenience. This project does not republish the PDF itself, for the copyright reasons set out in about.

The record ID is an accession number that happens to be readable. It never changes, even if the metadata encoded in it turns out to be wrong — if this book's board, class, subject or medium is corrected, the correction appears in the fields above and the ID stays as it is. That is the only way a link made today still resolves in ten years. The full rule is in the standards.

Challenge this record
If the edition is misidentified, a score does not survive its evidence, the source link is wrong, or a passage is unfairly characterised, that is worth reporting and will be acted on whether or not the correction suits the argument. Corrections are published in the corrections log, never quietly patched. This applies fully to the board that publishes this book: any reply will appear beside the finding it concerns, under the right of reply.
