Alvin Plantinga

Alvin Plantinga

Cambridge University Press
2007
pokkari
Few thinkers have had as much impact on contemporary philosophy as has Alvin Plantinga. The work of this quintessential analytic philosopher has in many respects set the tone for the debate in the fields of modal metaphysics and epistemology and he is arguably the most important philosopher of religion of our time. In this volume, a distinguished team of today's leading philosophers address the central aspects of Plantinga's philosophy - his views on natural theology; his responses to the problem of evil; his contributions to the field of modal metaphysics; the controversial evolutionary argument against naturalism; his model of epistemic warrant and his view of epistemic defeat; and his recent work on mind-body dualism. Also included is an appendix containing Plantinga's often referred to, but previously unpublished, lecture notes entitled 'Two Dozen (or so) Theistic Arguments', with a substantial preface to the appendix written by Plantinga specifically for this volume.

Here's the sixth book in the beloved and hilarious Alvin Ho chapter book series, which has been compared to Diary of a Wimpy Kid and is perfect for both beginning and reluctant readers. Alvin, an Asian American second grader who's afraid of everything, is taking his fears to a whole new level--or should we say, continent. On a trip to introduce brand-new baby Ho to relatives in China, Alvin's anxiety is at fever pitch. First there's the harrowing 16-hour plane ride; then there's a whole slew of cultural differences to contend with: eating lunch food for breakfast, kung fu lessons, and acupuncture treatment (yikes ). Not to mention the crowds that make it easy for a small boy to get lost. From Lenore Look and New York Times bestselling illustrator LeUyen Pham comes a drop-dead-funny and touching series with a truly unforgettable character.

He spent some time with the best teachers of the era and eventually started his own modern dance company, the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. This is the story of Alvin Ailey's life--a life that left its imprint as much on the history of the American people as on the history of modern dance.

With his first book for New Directions, Alvin Lustig began a partnership that would revolutionize the art of book cover design. Between 1941 and 1952, Lustig produced one masterpiece after another — stylized, fragmented, some combining multiple photographs, others drawn by hand in glorious abstraction.Each cover displayed an artistic unity where even the book’s title and author became simply one integral part, joined together by Lustig’s unerring sense of composition and his exquisite sense of color. Gorgeous and radically original,these designs immediately caught the public eye and became an iconic part of New Directions’ history.

Douglas V. Mastriano

The University Press of Kentucky

Alvin C. York (1887--1964) -- devout Christian, conscientious objector, and reluctant hero of World War I -- is one of America's most famous and celebrated soldiers. Known to generations through Gary Cooper's Academy Award-winning portrayal in the 1941 film Sergeant York, York is credited with the capture of 132 German soldiers on October 8, 1918, in the Meuse-Argonne region of France -- a deed for which he was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor.At war's end, the media glorified York's bravery but some members of the German military and a soldier from his own unit cast aspersions on his wartime heroics. Historians continue to debate whether York has received more recognition than he deserves. A fierce disagreement about the location of the battle in the Argonne forest has further complicated the soldier's legacy.In Alvin York, Douglas V. Mastriano sorts fact from myth in the first full-length biography of York in decades. He meticulously examines York's youth in the hills of east Tennessee, his service in the Great War, and his return to a quiet civilian life dedicated to charity. By reviewing artifacts recovered from the battlefield using military terrain analysis, forensic study, and research in both German and American archives, Mastriano reconstructs the events of October 8 and corroborates the recorded accounts. On the eve of the WWI centennial, Alvin York promises to be a major contribution to twentieth-century military history.

1720 East Woodrow Street: The Alvin W. Johnson Story

1720 East Woodrow Street: The Alvin W. Johnson Story

Alvin W. Johnson

Appte Publishing
2016
nidottu
1720 East Woodrow Street, The Alvin W. Johnson Story, is an unbelievable autobiography about four Johnson brothers growing up on East Woodrow Street in Tulsa with a mentally ill mother and a faithful preacher father. Sometimes hilarious and sometimes deeply moving, the story of four bad preacher's kids makes you shake your head in amazement that they all lived through it and found their destiny. Elder Johnson's destiny turned out to be prison ministry, but only after being incarcerated four different times before he saw the light and finally found Jesus. He started Lethal Weapon Prison Ministries because the "Lethal Weapon" against a lost life is Jesus. Elder Johnson tells the story of his mother from both sides-the tender side of "Momma Mac," as the neighbors called her, and the bizarre things she did when she was "sick," such as regular run-ins with the police. Their neighbors were afraid of her, with good cause, because she was known to pull a knife on you or throw boiling water on you once she was provoked. The author also honors the bond of love between his parents that survived the years of insanity because one man-his father-had made a marriage commitment to God for life.The book closes with the same words he speaks to prison inmates almost every week, words that call them forward to publicly start a new life with Jesus as Lord: He says, "Tomorrow isn't promised to anyone. This is the only time in your life that you can get it right." His hope and prayer is that this book will be distributed in prisons everywhere so that men and women in prison will find new hope and begin a new life, just as he did.This book is endorsed by the former president of Prison Fellowship, Garland Hunt, and nationally known Christian teacher and author Bishop Wellington Boone, both of whom have been in a unique position to watch Elder Johnson's life.http: //LethalWeaponMinistries.or
