The Christian Story

The Christian Story

Peter J Thompson

Authorhouse
2009
sidottu
The guide is a refreshingly different account of the Christian story and is ideally suited to young adults. It covers the main Christian events succinctly and links them in a way that makes the story come alive. The scope of the guide is comprehensive. It begins with a review of pre-Christian beliefs and what the ordinary people at the time of Jesus knew and understood. It ends with a review of what Christians believe today and some of the issues that are likely to be discussed in the next millennium. An introduction to the orthodox Christian story is given together with some contemporary interpretations of key events in the life of Jesus Christ. The guide endeavours to put the reader in a better position to form and evaluate his or her own beliefs. In the modern world, true and enduring faith can only be found through a sound understanding of the Christian story. Events and happenings that led those in the early Church to believe Jesus Christ was divine and the steps the Apostles took to spread the Gospel far and wide are explained. The formation of the Roman Catholic Church and its development are investigated, together with the ways the Reformation changed the direction of the Christian story. The more recent impact of science and social changes is also considered. An overview of the Church today helps the reader to understand the current structure and practices within the Church. The guide explains how different Christian denominations were taken to all parts of the world at the end of the medieval period. Finally, issues such as the nature of God and his kingdom, gender, and wealth in the context of today's Christian world are introduced so that the reader may be in a better position to take part in contemporary debate.

A Course in Homological Algebra

A Course in Homological Algebra

Peter J. Hilton; Urs Stammbach

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2012
nidottu
We have inserted, in this edition, an extra chapter (Chapter X) entitled "Some Applications and Recent Developments." The first section of this chapter describes how homological algebra arose by abstraction from algebraic topology and how it has contributed to the knowledge of topology. The other four sections describe applications of the methods and results of homological algebra to other parts of algebra. Most of the material presented in these four sections was not available when this text was first published. Naturally, the treatments in these five sections are somewhat cursory, the intention being to give the flavor of the homo­ logical methods rather than the details of the arguments and results. We would like to express our appreciation of help received in writing Chapter X; in particular, to Ross Geoghegan and Peter Kropholler (Section 3), and to Jacques Thevenaz (Sections 4 and 5). The only other changes consist of the correction of small errors and, of course, the enlargement of the Index.

Stability and Transition in Shear Flows

Stability and Transition in Shear Flows

Peter J. Schmid; Dan S. Henningson

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2012
nidottu
The field of hydrodynamic stability has a long history, going back to Rey­ nolds and Lord Rayleigh in the late 19th century. Because of its central role in many research efforts involving fluid flow, stability theory has grown into a mature discipline, firmly based on a large body of knowledge and a vast body of literature. The sheer size of this field has made it difficult for young researchers to access this exciting area of fluid dynamics. For this reason, writing a book on the subject of hydrodynamic stability theory and transition is a daunting endeavor, especially as any book on stability theory will have to follow into the footsteps of the classical treatises by Lin (1955), Betchov & Criminale (1967), Joseph (1971), and Drazin & Reid (1981). Each of these books has marked an important development in stability theory and has laid the foundation for many researchers to advance our understanding of stability and transition in shear flows.

Management Education in the Network Economy

Management Education in the Network Economy

Peter J. van Baalen; Lars T. Moratis

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2012
nidottu
In the network economy, concepts of management knowledge, management learning, and business school organization should change. Otherwise, they will not survive the 21st century. Different (f)actors are putting new demand upon providers of management education and traditional providers of management education are faced with new competitors. Moreover, the dynamics of the playing field have changed, as have approaches to (management) learning. Management Education in the Network Economy proposes the idea of networked business school to cope with these challenges. The book deals with the following subjects: 1) Current economic and organizational realities can best be viewed from the perspective of network organization; management knowledge and education should reflect these transformations to survive. 2) The idea and organization of (management) learning are revolutionizing, as well as the market for (management) education, which brings about huge changes for business schools. 3) Business school, particularly, should capitalize on these transformations and should strategically (re)organize and (re)position themselves to compete in the playing field for management education. 4) A networked learning environment is an integrative and effective learning environment for organizing management education in the 21st century network economy. 5) The networked business school is the organizational form to survive in the 21st century network economy, reflecting the environmental changes and demands, and to realize a competitive edge in the field of management education.

Scientist’s Guide to Poster Presentations

Scientist’s Guide to Poster Presentations

Peter J. Gosling

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2012
nidottu
Scientific information is increasingly being communicated at both national and international scientific conferences in the form of poster presentations. A recent international conference, for example, which involved nearly 500 delegates from over 50 different countries, included information presented in 331 posters. Recent experience has shown, however, that the presentational stan­ dard of such posters, even at the international level, varies immensely. Individuals presenting well-designed, eye-catching, and engaging post­ ers are at a distinct advantage in promoting their scientific information. In doing so, they also promote themselves as credible scientists, as well as promoting the reputation of their establishments and countries of origin. However, producing a poster of high quality requires considerable plan­ ning and the acquisition of specific presentational skills. This book provides detailed practical guidance on all aspects of pre­ senting scientific information in the form of posters. It is assumed that the presenter has access, either at home, at work, or through libraries, to a computer or word processor, a color printer, and photocopiers. The book is intended to help scientists to gain poster presentational skills in a man­ ner that enables adoption of an individualistic style of presenting infor­ mation in a credible fashion. The book has relevance internationally and is primarily targeted at research workers, including postgraduate students and all scientific professionals who are required to present visual commu­ nication of scientific information.

Process Simulation and Parametric Modeling for Strategic Project Management will offer CIOs, CTOs and Software Development Managers, IT Graduate Students an introduction to a set of technologies that will help them understand how to better plan software development projects, manage risk and have better insight into the complexities of the software development process.A novel methodology will be introduced that allows a software development manager to better plan and access risks in the early planning of a project. By providing a better model for early software development estimation and software development, managers will be better equipped to make more effective project portfolio investment choices. Moreover, the methodology will allow the software development manager to continually simulate scenarios throughout the lifecycle of the project and determine plausible alternatives before the risk becomes a reality.
