En buddhistisk vinkel på Jesu liv, hvor de tre vise mænd opfatter Jesus som en reinkarnation af en nylig afdød lama
Jan was successfully living her dream as an artist. Although she had become an accomplished musician in her twenties, Jan's artistic endeavors evolved as a writer. She enjoyed endless days of creating new characters for her children's tales and, often, composed musical scores to the rhythm of her stories. As her art came to life, Jan most enjoyed time in the recording studio where she laid tracks of character voices, sound effects and music. She felt gratified and delighted as her dreams of fulfillment never seemed to end. Her health and fitness were top on her list of importance, so, despite her busy schedule, she insisted on making time for annual check-ups. In what seemed to be a successful physical in 1998, the unexpected result of a simple blood test shook her very foundation. Her safe balance of life was shaken by the fragility of the unknown. How can a healthy, vibrant thirty-seven-year-old woman be diagnosed with failing bone marrow? Invasive tests, performed by experts in their field, confirmed her life-threatening condition, offering no explanation and little treatment choice. She faced a grim prognosis. Jan longed for her life as a healthy woman and yearned for her carefree days of artistic expression. Desperate to fight for her life, she clung to her faith and bravely strayed from Western medicine, the only culture she'd ever known. With hope for survival and healing, Jan delved into an alternative medicine and distant culture, one she never dreamed would touch her life so dramatically. While desperately seeking answers to the cause of her condition, Jan unearthed life-changing news about the seaside town of Toms River, New Jersey where she'd spent much of her happy childhood. Her unexpected discovery surrounding Toms River's infamous groundwater contamination, which was designated a Superfund Site, led her to the answers she sought about her failing health and her childhood years. Jan's powerful story of faith, survival and incredible discovery of a distant culture led her on an unforgettable journey.

Public Capital Expenditure in OECD Countries
Jan-Egbert Sturm
Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd
1998
sidottu
This important book investigates the causes of the decline in public capital spending which has occurred in most OECD countries over the past 25 years, and estimates the macroeconomic consequences of this decline.Governments can improve the future living conditions of their citizens in various ways including stimulating private investment, increasing spending on education and health programmes, preserving the environment and adding to the stock of public capital. In Public Capital Spending in OECD Countries the author focuses on government investment in physical capital within a macroeconomic context. He examines the consequences of the decline in public investment on physical assets such as infrastructure and the environment. The past few years have witnessed a growing awareness that especially the stock of public capital has been neglected by many OECD governments. Such a reduction in public investment may lead to a decline in economic growth, and therefore it is vital that the fall in government spending is rigorously examined.Key features include:- a detailed and comprehensive review of existing literature.original empirical investigations using alternative techniques and different datasets.possible explanations for the trends in public capital spending.estimates of the effect of public capital spending on economic growth.

Brouwer's Cambridge Lectures on Intuitionism
Luitzen Egbertus Jan Brouwer
Cambridge University Press
2011
pokkari
Luitzen Egburtus Jan Brouwer founded a school of thought whose aim was to include mathematics within the framework of intuitionistic philosophy; mathematics was to be regarded as an essentially free development of the human mind. What emerged diverged considerably at some points from tradition, but intuitionism has survived well the struggle between contending schools in the foundations of mathematics and exact philosophy. Originally published in 1981, this monograph contains a series of lectures dealing with most of the fundamental topics such as choice sequences, the continuum, the fan theorem, order and well-order. Brouwer's own powerful style is evident throughout the work.
Introduction to Fluid Dynamics in Physics and Astrophysics
Hendrik Jan van Eerten
TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2024
nidottu
This textbook provides an accessible and self-contained introduction to the physics behind fluid dynamics; exploring the laws of nature describing three out of four fundamental states of matter (liquids, gases, and plasmas). Based on years of teaching of fluid dynamics theory and computation at advanced undergraduate level, it provides readers with the tools to understand and model fluid dynamical systems across a wide range of applications, from dense liquids to dilute space plasmas. The book covers the principles of fluid dynamics for an audience without prior exposure to fluid dynamics specifically. Discussion of relevant vector algebra, thermodynamics and electromagnetism is included, to ensure that the book is accessible both to readers experienced in these topics and readers starting from a basic understanding.Example applications are drawn both from astrophysics and physics, touching upon topical research such as relativistic blast waves from neutron star mergers and the implications of plasma nature of the atmosphere for present and future radio observatories. These are contrasted and complemented with examples from general physics (e.g. contrasting the incompressible nature of water with the dilute interstellar medium). It is an ideal textbook for advanced undergraduates studying the topic and will provide a solid foundation for further (postgraduate) studies into fluid dynamics in physics or astrophysics.Key Features:Introduction to fluid dynamics pitched at advanced undergraduate level, accessible to students who are still learning relevant mathematical techniquesIncludes over 60 exercises and selected worked solutions, in addition to timely examples and easily accessible numerical demonstrations written in C and python for readers to experiment with (https://github.com/hveerten/code_fluid_dynamics_book)Up-to-date selection of topics including fluid dynamics in special relativity and computational fluid dynamics, written by an expert in the field. The book covers all that is needed to independently write a finite-volume solver for Euler’s equations and/or reproduce the provided Python and C softwareCovers a wide range of applications in astrophysics, including first-order Fermi acceleration in shocks, accretion discs, self-similarity in cosmic explosions and interstellar turbulence

Challenging Extremist Views on Social Media
Jan-Jaap van Eerten; Bertjan Doosje
Routledge
2019
sidottu
This book is a timely and significant examination of the role of counter-messaging via social media as a potential means of preventing or countering radicalization to violent extremism. In recent years, extremist groups have developed increasingly sophisticated online communication strategies to spread their propaganda and promote their cause, enabling messages to be spread more rapidly and effectively. Counter-messaging has been promoted as one of the most important measures to neutralize online radicalizing influences and is intended to undermine the appeal of messages disseminated by violent extremist groups. While many such initiatives have been launched by Western governments, civil society actors, and private companies, there are many questions regarding their efficacy. Focusing predominantly on efforts countering Salafi-Jihadi extremism, this book examines how feasible it is to prevent or counter radicalization and violent extremism with counter-messaging efforts. It investigates important principles to consider when devising such a program. The authors provide both a comprehensive theoretical overview and a review of the available literature, as well as policy recommendations for governments and the role they can play in counter-narrative efforts.As this is the first book to critically examine the possibilities and pitfalls of using counter-messaging to prevent radicalization or stimulate de-radicalization, it is essential reading for policy makers and professionals dealing with this issue, as well as researchers in the field.

Ethnic Groups and Population Changes in Twentieth Century Eastern Europe
Piotr Eberhardt; Jan Owsinski
Routledge
2002
sidottu
This unique reference traces the changing borders and ethnic balances that characterized the history of Eastern Europe during the twentieth century. After a preliminary overview, the book divides Eastern Europe into five regions, from the Baltic to the Balkans, and closely analyzes the ethnic structure of each region's constituent units over time. Summary chapters at the end of the volume present a comprehensive ethno-demographic portrait of the region at the start of the century, between the two world wars, and from the post-World War II period to the century's end. The volume is richly illustrated with more than sixty figures, hundreds of tables, and multi-lingual indexes of place names and ethnic groups.
Taking continuous-time stochastic processes allowing for jumps as its starting and focal point, this book provides an accessible introduction to the stochastic calculus and control of semimartingales and explains the basic concepts of Mathematical Finance such as arbitrage theory, hedging, valuation principles, portfolio choice, and term structure modelling. It bridges thegap between introductory texts and the advanced literature in the field.Most textbooks on the subject are limited to diffusion-type models which cannot easily account for sudden price movements. Such abrupt changes, however, can often be observed in real markets. At the same time, purely discontinuous processes lead to a much wider variety of flexible and tractable models. This explains why processes with jumps have become an established tool in the statistics and mathematics of finance. Graduate students, researchers as well as practitioners will benefit from this monograph.
