Philosophy of Religion

Philosophy of Religion

Beverley Clack; Brian R. Clack

Polity Press
2008
sidottu
The first publication of Beverley Clack and Brian R. Clack’s exciting and innovative introduction to the philosophy of religion has been of enormous value to students, as well as providing a bold and refreshing alternative to the standard analytic approaches to the subject. This second edition retains the accessibility which made it popular for both teachers and students, while furthering its distinctive argument that emphasises the human dimension of religion. The text has been fully revised and updated. The traditional emphasis on the arguments for the existence of God is reflected in a newly extended and reworked investigation into natural theology. Recent developments in the subject are also reflected in updated chapters, and, in a move that highlights the originality of the authors’ approach, they offer a critical engagement with current world events. An entirely new concluding chapter interrogates the connection between religion and terror, and demonstrates how philosophy of religion might be conducted under the terrible shadow of 9/11. This new edition of The Philosophy of Religion will continue to be essential reading for all students and practitioners of the subject.

The definitive resource for learning and teaching challenging anatomy Rapid advances in medical research and technology have led to innovative medical procedures, and in turn, emerging trends in medical education. Novel developments highlight the importance of once seemingly irrelevant anatomic details, while also impacting the scope of anatomy curricula. To reflect these changes, each chapter in Atlas of Anatomy, Fifth Edition has been meticulously updated to ensure content is both relevant and reflective of the role of anatomy in contemporary medical practice. The book features seven anatomical sections with a total of 51 chapters, with updates, additions, and revisions incorporated throughout the more than 700 pages. The Table of Contents is enhanced with reader-friendly chapter and page references for all tables and clinical boxes. To mirror the current trend in muscular attachment terminology, origin and insertion are replaced with the more accurate and descriptive terms superior attachment/inferior attachment or proximal attachment/distal attachment. Over 2,100 illustrations unmatched in both the realistic depiction of anatomy and the three-dimensionality of the figures enhance recognition and memorization of structures. Key Features: NEW! Updated images reflect gender, racial, and ethnic diversityNEW! Reorganization of the neurovascular spreads in the abdomen and pelvis unitsNEW! Expansion of the sections on the female breast and perineumNEW! Added brainstem cross section layouts NEW! A list of common eponyms with their official anatomic equivalentsLike the widely acclaimed prior editions, this stunningly illustrated textbook provides an indispensable anatomy resource for medical and physical therapy students, as well as robust classroom teaching tool for anatomy courses.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Lewis Carroll; Brian R Basore

Evertype
2017
pokkari
Lewis Carroll is a pen-name: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson was the author's real name and he was lecturer in Mathematics at Christ Church, Oxford. Dodgson began the story on 4 July 1862, when he took a journey in a rowing boat on the river Thames in Oxford together with the Reverend Robinson Duckworth, with Alice Liddell (ten years of age) the daughter of the Dean of Christ Church, and with her two sisters, Lorina (thirteen years of age), and Edith (eight years of age). As is clear from the poem at the beginning of the book, the three girls asked Dodgson for a story and reluctantly at first he began to tell the first version of the story to them. There are many half-hidden references made to the five of them throughout the text of the book itself, which was published finally in 1865. The text for this edition makes some alterations to Lewis Carroll's final revised text in order to correct some incon-sistencies which remained, or which appear to have been introduced, by Carroll in 1897. In the Evertype definitive text the aim has been to establish (or re-establish) clarity and consistency where it was lacking, while conserving the idio-syncrasies of Carroll's writing which have delighted readers for a century and a half. The illustrations in this volume were prepared in 1977 by J. Michael Rolen.

John Wiley Sons Inc
2011
sidottu
The tools engineers need for effective thermal stress design Thermal stress concerns arise in many engineering situations, from aerospace structures to nuclear fuel rods to concrete highway slabs on a hot summer day. Having the tools to understand and alleviate these potential stresses is key for engineers in effectively executing a wide range of modern design tasks. Design for Thermal Stresses provides an accessible and balanced resource geared towards real-world applications. Presenting both the analysis and synthesis needed for accurate design, the book emphasizes key principles, techniques, and approaches for solving thermal stress problems. Moving from basic to advanced topics, chapters cover: Bars, beams, and trusses from a "strength of materials" perspective Plates, shells, and thick-walled vessels from a "theory of elasticity" perspective Thermal buckling in columns, beams, plates, and shells Written for students and working engineers, this book features numerous sample problems demonstrating concepts at work. In addition, appendices include important SI units, relevant material properties, and mathematical functions such as Bessel and Kelvin functions, as well as characteristics of matrices and determinants required for designing plates and shells. Suitable as either a working reference or an upper-level academic text, Design for Thermal Stresses gives students and professional engineers the information they need to meet today's thermal stress design challenges.

Television and Children

Television and Children

Jill L. McAleer; Brian R. Clifford; Barrie Gunter

Routledge Member of the Taylor and Francis Group
1995
nidottu
This book addresses the subject of children and television -- how they view it, what they think of specific programs, and how these likes and dislikes affect learning of the content presented. Broad in coverage, it looks at evaluation, comprehension, and impact in the drama, information and entertainment domains. In all cases, demographic and background experiences and knowledge are assessed for their contribution to learning, attitude/opinion change, and stability as a function of exposure to particular program content. Empirical investigations of police dramas, science programs, and quiz shows are conducted utilizing experimental methods and involving approximately 1,000 children in a series of studies. Related to existing research literature, this work confirms the view of the child/adolescent as an active viewer who is critical, constructive, and capable of learning from the television medium -- even when the program is clearly broadcast as entertainment rather than as education or information. This volume is unique in that it addresses questions of the relation between children and diverse television content in terms of its impact on social and informational schemas.
