This book employs a global history approach to John Wesley’s (1703–1791) political and social tracts. It stresses the personal element in Wesley’s political thought, focusing on the twin themes of ‘liberty and loyalty’. Wesley’s political writings reflect on the impact of global conflicts on Britain and provide insight into the political responses of the broader religious world of the eighteenth century.They cover such topics as the nature and origin of political power, economy, taxes, trade, opposition to slavery and to smuggling, British rule in Ireland, relaxation of anti-Catholic Acts, and the American Revolution. Glen O’Brien argues that Wesley’s political foundations were less theological than they were social and personal. Political engagement was exercised as part of a social contract held together by a compact of trust.The book contributes to eighteenth-century religious history, and to Wesley Studies in particular, through a fresh engagement with primary sources and recent secondary literature in order to place Wesley’s writings in their global political context.
Project success is an elusive goal in every business or technical domain. Project failure usually results from unhandled risks to the technical, cost, and schedule aspects of the project. There are four primary root causes of project failure.Unrealistic performance expectation, with missing Measures of EffectivenessUnrealistic cost and schedule estimates based on inadequate risk adjusted growth modelsInadequate assessment of risk and unmitigated exposure to these risks without proper handling strategiesUnanticipated technical issues with alternative plans and solutions to maintain the effectiveness of the project processes and its deliverablesRisk Management provides a comprehensive overview of the people, principles, processes, and practices as the fundamental base upon which an effective risk management system resides. However, this does not guarantee effective risk management and successful projects and businesses. The first half of the book describes risk management processes, as well as a delineation between risk and hazards and how these are connected. The second half of the book provides industry examples of the approach to risk management in specific context and with specific approaches and artifacts where applicable.The book focuses on risks created by uncertainty, their identification, and the corrective and preventive actions needed to address these risks to increase the probability of project success. The book’s goal is to provide a context-driven framework, developing a foundation for a rational approach to risk management that makes adaptation to circumstances as easy as possible.

In King of Israel, Glen Carlin delves deeply into biblical eschatology, focusing on the ultimate survival of a fragment of Jewish people, known as the "remnant of Israel", who will be redeemed by their Messiah at the end of the Great Tribulation period. Mr. Carlin walks readers through the chronology of the persecution of the Jewish people by Satanic world powers. Led by the Antichrist, ten kingdoms invade the Holy Land during the Great Tribulation. The Israelites are forced to escape Jerusalem and Judea and their brethren Jews endure a worldwide expulsion from their adopted countries. Under the LORD's protection, they are gathered at Mount Nebo in the Middle East. There, they will recover the Ark of the Covenant and the Temple vessels removed by the prophet Jeremiah from Solomon's Temple. At Mt. Nebo, they also recover the body of Moses and are then led by the prophet Elijah into the wilderness, where they are reconciled with the LORD. Here they are given grace and the veil covering their eyes is lifted to recognize their Messiah, Jesus. At the battle of Armageddon, the remnant of Israel is victorious returning to possess the Promised Land. Built on scripture and historical research, King of Israel pulls together prophecy from the Old and New Testament, demonstrating the Grand Narrative of Redemption written by God and revealed through His Word. It's a fascinating storyline and a message of hope and promise to His people today and in the future.

Reforming Mendeleev's tabular periodic table in a circular form offers many options for reconsidering the basic building blocks of physical manifestation.In the second edition of this ground-breaking book Glen Atkinson builds upon Rudolf Steiner's indications and reveals an energetic framework for the chemical elements.
Rudolf Steiner's Nature Stories offer us a blueprint of the forces active in the cycles of the Seasons. This forms the basis upon which the tasks we face in Agriculture can be organized.First, we must see the processes within the cycle of the year, and then we can plot ways to work with these active processes, to overcome the problems that arise at specific times.Glen's 50 years' experience exploring Rudolf Steiner's suggestions, organizes his many stories and presents both Steiner's and his own remedies for working with the cycle of the seasons.These are Rudolf Steiner's Nature Stories, the solutions are presented in other essays in this series, available for free @ www.garudabd.org.
Includes all Errata as of January 2025. American Government 3e aligns with the topics and objectives of many government courses. Faculty involved in the project have endeavored to make government workings, issues, debates, and impacts meaningful and memorable to students while maintaining the conceptual coverage and rigor inherent in the subject. With this objective in mind, the content of this textbook has been developed and arranged to provide a logical progression from the fundamental principles of institutional design at the founding, to avenues of political participation, to thorough coverage of the political structures that constitute American government. The book builds upon what students have already learned and emphasizes connections between topics as well as between theory and applications. The goal of each section is to enable students not just to recognize concepts, but to work with them in ways that will be useful in later courses, future careers, and as engaged citizens. In order to help students understand the ways that government, society, and individuals interconnect, the revision includes more examples and details regarding the lived experiences of diverse groups and communities within the United States. The authors and reviewers sought to strike a balance between confronting the negative and harmful elements of American government, history, and current events, while demonstrating progress in overcoming them. In doing so, the approach seeks to provide instructors with ample opportunities to open discussions, extend and update concepts, and drive deeper engagement.

This book covers all the topics in construction that is tested for CSEC Mathematics. The basic concepts are introduced first and students need to work through these with the use of their geometric instruments. After students have mastered these basic concepts, there are problems that need the applications of two or more of these concepts. Finally, there are structured problems where students apply all their knowledge that was learnt in construction, to work through.This book is designed for anyone who has never done construction before. No previous knowledge was assumed, so forms 1, 2 and 3 students will benefit from this book. Repeater students will profit tremendously when they work through the contents of the book. Adults can also use the book if they want to develop new skills and knowledge. A tutor is not needed if someone wants to use the book independently. Teachers, who are giving crash courses, can use the book with their students and they will master this topic within a day or two depending on their level of attainment. I will advise students and Teachers to immediately do past paper questions on construction, as soon as they complete this book, because all the concepts will be fresh in their minds.
