Where can I find information on Hypothermia and Hyperthermia?

This is for a project for school. I am open to any and all sugestions.

You're cheating. In the time it took you to come here and post this question, you could have just typed in "hypothermia" and "hyperthermia" in the search field and already had the answer.

Here are 2 links, but you'll have to do the research yourself:

Hypothermia:
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/hypot...

Hyperthermia (or fever):
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/...

Remember "Po is Low"! Hypothermia means an abnormally low body temperature, and Hyperthermia is an abnormally high body temperature.
