J.R.R. Tolkien

J.R.R. Tolkien

Jeremy W Johnston

He Publishing
2023
pokkari
"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit." So begins J.R.R. Tolkien's marvellous tale of wizards, elves, dragons, and dwarves in the children's book, The Hobbit. Since Bilbo Baggins entered the hearts and minds of readers in 1937, millions of people around the world have gone on to read, watch, and study Tolkien's epic masterpieces The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion. Yet, in spite of the legacy and the world-wide fame of Tolkien's Middle-earth, many people know more about hobbits, trolls, and magic rings than they do about the man behind it all. So who was J.R.R. Tolkien, the maker of Middle-earth? In his own words, he says, "I am a Christian" and plainly states that he wrote The Lord of the Rings "to be consonant with Christian thought and belief." This is why Tolkien's Christian faith is the linchpin for fully understanding and appreciating his voluminous writings. This biography is intended to show readers that Tolkien's Christian faith was central to his life and work, personally, professionally, and-most importantly-creatively.

The Political Mapping of Cyberspace

The Political Mapping of Cyberspace

Jeremy W. Crampton

University of Chicago Press
2004
nidottu
As inherently spatial beings, our sense of space in cyberspace challenges all that is familiar in terms of our ability to define, organize, govern, and map social places. In The Political Mapping of Cyberspace, Jeremy Crampton shows that cyberspace is not the virtual reality we think it to be, but instead a rich geography of political practices and power relations. Using concepts and methods derived from the work of Michel Foucault, Crampton outlines a new mapping of cyberspace to help define the role of space in virtual worlds and to provide constructive ways in which humans can exist in another spatial dimension. He delineates the critical role maps play in constructing the medium as an object of knowledge and demonstrates that by processes of mapping we come to understand cyberspace. Maps, he argues, shape political thinking about cyberspace, and he deploys in-depth case studies of crime mapping, security maintenance, and geo-surveillance to show how we map ourselves onto cyberspace, inexorably, and indelibly. Offering a powerful reinterpretation of technology and contemporary life, this innovative book will be an essential touchstone for the study of cartography and cyberspace in the twenty-first century.

Witness Your Why: Evangelism for Every Church

Witness Your Why: Evangelism for Every Church

Jeremy W. Scott

Jeremy W. Scott
2018
nidottu
The largest and fasting growing religious group is those who answer "none" to religious preference. They are not against church, or faith, or God. They are indifferent. And overcoming indifference takes a different set of tools than most churches today are experienced with. Thankfully new church starts have been working on this issue for years and they have important things to share with every existing church. Witness Your Why is full of inspiration and practical advice to jump start outreach and evangelism in your church.

Michigan's Lumbertowns

Michigan's Lumbertowns

Jeremy W. Kilar

Wayne State University Press
1990
nidottu
Michigan's foremost lumbertowns, flourishing urban industrial centers in the late 19th century, faced economic calamity with the depletion of timber supplies by the end of the century. Turning to their own resources and reflecting individual cultural identities, Saginaw, Bay City, and Muskegon developed dissimilar strategies to sustain their urban industrial status. This study is a comprehensive history of these lumbertowns from their inception as frontier settlements to their emergence as reshaped industrial centers.Primarily an examination of the role of the entrepreneur in urban economic development, Michigan Lumbertowns considers the extent to which the entrepreneurial approach was influenced by each city's cultural-ethnic construct and its social history. More than a narrative history, it is a study of violence, business, and social change.

Shifting Worlds, Changing Minds

Shifting Worlds, Changing Minds

Jeremy W. Hayward

Shambhala Publications Inc
1987
pokkari
From the author of "Perceiving Ordinary Magic, " this book proposes that both science and Buddhism offer powerful insights into human nature that can help to bring about profound changes in our lives and our society. Jeremy Hayward argues that a radical uprooting of our beliefs about reality is necessary if we are to resolve our confusion about our world and ourselves. Only a profound examination of human perception--a process by which worlds and selves are created and re-created ever moment--will provide the clarity and confidence we seek. "Shifting Worlds, Changing Minds " is an in-depth, non-technical analysis of the perceptual process, drawing on the latest data from cognitive science--the "new science of mind." Added to these are insights gained from the Buddhist practice of mindfulness-awareness meditation. The results of this analysis and practice can free us from dependence on belief systems. We are presented with a genuine revolution in the understanding of consciousness, and the possibilities for awareness and compassion are revealed.

A Pastor's Introduction to Church Administration: Administering the 21st Century Church Effectively

A Pastor's Introduction to Church Administration: Administering the 21st Century Church Effectively

Jeremy W. Odom

Big O Publishing Group LLC
2016
nidottu
This invaluable resource may well be the last church administration or management book you may ever need. This book covers virtually every aspect of church administration. In "A Pastor's Introduction to Church Administration" Dr. Odom presents a great wealth of information for pastors who may not be so well-versed in the administration of the Church. Dr. Odom addresses in great detail topics such as "Church Business Meeting", "Church Discipline", "Church Strategy", "Church Councils", "Design of a Pastoral Staff" and various other topics dealing with the administration of the church. "A Pastor's Introduction to Church Administration" comes to the aid of both seasoned and new ministers alike entering into the pastorate. Dr. Odom petitions the reader to explore different facets involved in church administration. Several pastors have viewed church administration as a loathsome and cumbersome task for years upon years. While many identify it as their least favorite area of ministry, the consensus is that church administration requires the lengthiest amount of the pastor's time. This book will assist the pastor in creating and maintaining effective structures which will free up more of the pastor's time for what matters most--ministry.

A Dynamic Theory of Hylomorphism

A Dynamic Theory of Hylomorphism

Jeremy W. Skrzypek

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025
sidottu
This book introduces a novel hylomorphic theory of material objects, according to which material objects are understood as comprised or composed of both matter and activity, where activity plays the role of form. This theory, “hyloenergeism,” captures the dynamic nature of many of the objects of our experience, such as living organisms, better than other leading varieties of contemporary hylomorphism.Hylomorphism is the theory according to which material objects are understood as comprised or composed of two fundamental parts, components, aspects, or principles: matter and form. Many contemporary hylomorphists endorse a version according to which the form of a material object is understood as a certain kind of complex relation or structure realized in its material parts. Others endorse a version according to which the form of a material object is understood as a certain kind of power or disposition continuously activated in the object or in its material parts. This book argues against structural and dispositional varieties of hylomorphism in favor of a third approach: hyloenergeism. Drawing on various aspects of traditional Aristotelian hylomorphism and other contemporary occurrence-based theories of material objects, it argues that hyloenergeism has the resources to successfully avoid or resolve several major concerns for other competing hylomorphic views.A Dynamic Theory of Hylomorphism will appeal to researchers and graduate students working in metaphysics, ancient philosophy, and medieval philosophy.

Understanding Microbes

Understanding Microbes

Jeremy W. Dale

Wiley-Blackwell
2013
nidottu
We can’t see them, but microbes are the dominant form of life on Earth. They make up half of the world’s biomass. They were here billions of years before we were, and they will be here after we are gone. Without their activity, life as we know it would be impossible. Even within our own bodies, there are ten times as many bacterial cells as human cells. Understanding Microbes provides a clear, accessible introduction to this world of microbes. As well as looking at a selection of infectious diseases, including how they are prevented and treated, the book explores the importance of microbes in the environment, in the production and preservation of food, and their applications in biotechnology. This lively and engaging book provides the basics of microbiology, in a contemporary context. It will be equally useful for students across the biological, environmental and health sciences, and for the curious reader wanting to learn more about this fascinating subject. A highly-readable, concise introduction to the basics of microbiology placed in the context of the very latest developments in molecular biology and their impact on the microbial world.Numerous real-world examples range from how cows digest grass to the role of microbes in cancer and the impact of climate changeWell-illustrated in full colour throughout.Written by an Author with a proven track record in teaching, writing and research.
