Uncommon Sense: The Wisdom of James for Dispossessed Believers
ISBN: 9781936341665 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Wisdom is the dominant theme of James' letter-and it is difficult to imagine a greater or more important theme for readers today who live in a world that seems almost totally devoid of wisdom. Throughout the history of our country, Christians have enjoyed a majority status and the deference that goes with it, but that circumstance has changed dramatically in recent years. Being a Christian has shifted from being an asset to being a liability (socially speaking), with many associating our faith with bigotry, hypocrisy, and a judgmental spirit-and the situation doesn't seem likely to change in...

Church Discipline: God's Gift for a Healthier, Holier Church
ISBN: 9781936341740 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The topic of church discipline has had an odd history in Christian circles. At one time, it was considered an "identifying mark of the church," but in modern times it has fallen into disrepute and suffers general negligence. In this book Tommy South seeks to reverse that trend by offering a biblical and theological exposition of the practice of early Christian discipline and showing how it can (and ought to) be utilized by churches today. South's earlier work on this topic ("That We May Share His Holiness: A Fresh Approach to Church Discipline" Bible Guides, 1997]) was the only book at the...

Just Jesus: The Evidence of History
ISBN: 9781936341429 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Few people are able to ignore Jesus. He has devotees and detractors, but hardly anyone is neutral about him. But how much do we know about him? Whether we love him or loathe him, it only makes sense that we know what and whom we're talking about. JUST JESUS is about what we can know about Jesus. Jesus isn't just a religious idea but a phenomenon of history. That means we can and should ask about him all of the historical questions we can think of and see which ones can and can't be answered. Fortunately, we're able to learn a lot more about Jesus than most people think.

James Bond and Philosophy: Questions Are Forever
ISBN: 9780812696073 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) "Bond. James Bond." Since Sean Connery first uttered that iconic phrase in Dr. No, more than one quarter of the world's population has seen a 007 film. Witty and urbane, Bond seduces and kills with equal ease -- often, it seems, with equal enthusiasm. This enthusiasm, coupled with his freedom to do what is forbidden to everyone else, evokes fascinating philosophical questions. Here, 15 witty, thought-provoking essays discuss hidden issues in Bond's world, from his carnal pleasures to his license to kill. Among the lively topics explored are Bond's relation to existentialism, including...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Philosophy: Fear and Trembling in Sunnydale

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Twenty-three essays by young professional philosophers examine crucial ethical and metaphysical aspects of the Buffyverse (the world of Buffy). Though the show already attracted much scholarly attention, this is the first book to fully disinter the intellectual issues. Designed by Whedon as a multilevel story with most of its meanings deeply buried in heaps of heavy irony, Buffy the Vampire Slayer has replaced The X-Files as the show that explains to Americans the nature of the powerful forces of evil continually threatening to surge into our world of everyday decency and overwhelm it. In... Twenty-three essays by young professional philosophers examine crucial ethical and metaphysical aspects of the Buffyverse (the world of Buffy). Tho... |

ISBN: 9781032573885 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Organizations are using data, information and knowledge as a competitive weapon. Their data, information and knowledge are arguably their most valuable assets.

Theology and the Science of Moral Action: Virtue Ethics, Exemplarity, and Cognitive Neuroscience
ISBN: 9781138108783 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The past decade has witnessed a renaissance in scientific approaches to the study of morality. Once understood to be the domain of moral psychology, the newer approach to morality is largely interdisciplinary, driven in no small part by developments in behavioural economics and evolutionary biology, as well as advances in neuroscientific imaging capabilities, among other fields. To date, scientists studying moral cognition and behaviour have paid little attention to virtue theory, while virtue theorists have yet to acknowledge the new research results emerging from the new science of...

Generalized Linear Models and Extensions: Fourth Edition
ISBN: 9781597182256 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 598 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Generalized linear models (GLMs) extend linear regression to models with a non-Gaussian, or even discrete, response. GLM theory is predicated on the exponential family of distributions-a class so rich that it includes the commonly used logit, probit, and Poisson models. Although one can fit these models in Stata by using specialized commands (for example, logit for logit models), fitting them as GLMs with Stata's glm command offers some advantages. For example, model diagnostics may be calculated and interpreted similarly regardless of the assumed distribution. This text thoroughly...

Overcoming Intolerance in South Africa: Experiments in Democratic Persuasion

Gibson and Amanda Gouws investigate the degree to which the political culture of South Africa and the beliefs, values, and attitudes of ordinary people affect democratic reform. One set of values is of particular concern for their research: political tolerance. Gibson and Gouws contend that political tolerance is a crucial element of democratic political cultures in general. And it is perhaps more important than any other democratic value in polyglot South Africa.

Berkley
ISBN: 9781531667603 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Once a forbidding area of swamps and forests, Berkley was uninhabited until the early 19th century. In 1924, the Detroit News disparaged the "frontier community" and wrote that it "resembles a settlement in the oil waste of Wyoming." Still, forward-thinking residents thought Berkley had a bright future. Two factions with competing ideas raced with paperwork to the Oakland County Courthouse in Pontiac; the triumphant group, desiring a small town, camped out overnight to be the first in line. Later incorporated as a city in 1932, Berkley's history includes the invention of the Benjamin Grain...
