A collection of articles from the Daily Telegraph's 1922 reporting on Howard Carter's discovery and excavation of the ancient Egyptian tomb of Tutankhamen.Howard Carter (1874-1939) was an English Egyptologist who discovered and led the excavation of Pharaoh Tutankhamen's tomb in November 1922. G. Elliot Smith wrote this series of articles for the Daily Telegraph, and they offer commentary on the wider meaning of the incredible discovery. Hidden by rubble and debris, the tomb remained largely intact for over 30 centuries, making it the best-preserved royal burial from ancient Egypt. Delve into the excitement of this renowned expedition and immerse yourself in Howard Carter's archaeological breakthrough.The chapters featured in this volume include: Exploration of the Theban Tombs of the KingsTutankhamenThe Significance of the DiscoveryThe Valley of the TombsThe Story of the FloodGetting to HeavenThe Ethics of Desecration

Sir George Darwin (1845–1912) was the second son and fifth child of Charles Darwin. After studying mathematics at Cambridge he read for the Bar, but soon returned to science and to Cambridge, where in 1883 he was appointed Plumian Professor of Astronomy and Experimental Philosophy. His family home is now the location of Darwin College. His work was concerned primarily with the effect of the sun and moon on tidal forces on Earth, and with the theoretical cosmogony which evolved from practical observation: he formulated the fission theory of the formation of the moon (that the moon was formed from still-molten matter pulled away from the Earth by solar tides). He also developed a theory of evolution for the Sun–Earth–Moon system based on mathematical analysis in geophysical theory. This volume of his collected papers covers oceanic tides and lunar disturbances of gravity.

This is the second edition of a work which first appeared in 1979. The first edition gave an interpretation of Paul's Letters to the Galatians which proceeded along the following lines: firstly, Paul's opponents at Galatia were Jewish Christians who believed that Gentiles had to accept the Law in order to be saved; secondly, that Paul first revealed his noncircumcision gospel to James, Cephas and John at the Jerusalem Conference; thirdly, Paul's view of justification by faith was seen in terms of Christ keeping faith with Abraham's promise that all nations would be blessed; and fourthly, that Paul considered Torah as binding upon Jewish Christians, but not upon Gentiles. In his second edition, the author brings the discussion into line with his present thinking, and proposes a more nuanced view of the Galatian opponents. These, he feels, did not all share the same opinions, although they were Jewish Christians. The chief discrepancy in their views consisted in the fact that some believed all Gentiles would be saved at the present time if they kept the Law, while others thought the Gentiles would be saved, rather, at the dawn of the age to come.
