There is much more to shame than its reputation as a negative emotional state. This clinical book delves into the role of shame in many complex issues such as personality disorders, anxiety, depression and addictions. In each example the authors show how an understanding of the positive side of shame can be translated into practical therapeutic interventions.
Originally published in 1929, this informative textbook, aimed at school students, provides a reliable introduction on the subject of light. The book was written because the subject, 'which, at the university, proves to be full of lively interest, is too often at school a dreary grind of thinly disguised geometry' and 'much of value is lost in this way'. Offering a vibrant account of electromagnetic theory of radiation and an 'explanation of nearly all the phenomena hitherto investigated', this book presents 'an alternative approach to the subject'. Chapters are detailed and broad in scope; chapter titles include, 'The behaviour of light', 'The velocity of light' and 'Sources of light'. Notably, the wave concept is used as the means of approach and multiple examples are included at the back for reference. This book will be of significant value to anyone with an interest in optics and the history of education.

Revolution and the Christian Faith
Vernon C Grounds; Mark O Hatfield
Wipf Stock Publishers
2007
pokkari
In this stirring book, Grounds has ably sketched the background against which the theology of revolution has emerged. Grounds puts it this way: I have sought to let the critics of the Establishment, Christian and secular alike, present in their own words the case for revolutionary change. I have also sought to let the revolutionary theologians set forth their interpretation of Christianity in detail. Quite literally, I have allowed them to speak for themselves. I have sought, further, to let Christian scholars who dissent from this new theology engage its proponents in debate. Very heavily I have drawn upon the work of Jacques Ellul, the towering French sociologist who is rapidly gaining in the United States the attention and respect which his rare fusion of professional distinction, intellectual power, and biblical commitment deserves. I shall feel amply regarded if through these pages he wins a wider readership among American evangelicals. An additional purpose has been to confront my own ecclesiastical tradition, that of Protestant orthodoxy, with the inexpressibly pressing need of permitting the anguish of our world to drive theological conservatism back to a New Testament discipleship which is nothing less than revolutionary. The Christian in particular must not remain insulated from the pace of revolutionary change that confronts us. Moreover, he need not be threatened by the appearance of instability in our social institutions. Somehow, many Christians have assumed that faith places them in a mandatory alliance with the political status quo. But this is not the message of the Bible. We are instructed never to place our security in the world's existing political and social institutions. . . . It is Christ Himself--He who has overcome the world--who provides the one and only basis for our security and hope in the future. -- from the Introduction by Mark O. Hatfield, former U.S. Senator Vernon C. Grounds (1928-2010), was Chancellor of Denver Seminary, a noted evangelical scholar, author, and educator. After graduating with the bachelor of arts degree from Rutgers University, Grounds received his divinity degree from Faith Theological Seminary, and his doctorate in philosophy from Drew University.
