By championing the ideals of independence, evangelism, and conservism, the Southern Baptist Covention (SBC) has grown into the largest Protestant denomination in the country. The Convention's mass democratic form of church government, its influential annual meetings, and its sheer size have made it a barometer for Southern political and cultural shift. Its most recent shift has been starboard-toward fundamentalism and Republicanism.

While the Convention once ofered a happy home to Harry Truman, Jimmy Carter, and church-state...

This 1977 book shows the positions of the major continental areas during the past 220 million years as four series of computer-drawn maps.

The modern theoretical study of mechanics has a long history dating from the early part of the 17th century. The first major contribution to particle dynamics was made by Galileo with his elementary theory of the motion of a projectile. The fundamental importance of Galileo's approach lay in his attempt to relate theory and experimental evidence; at the time this was a new concept of scientific method. Prior to this breakthrough scientific theories of mechanics were put forward wholly on this basis of reason and the authoritative statement.

The updated versions of FORTRAN covered in this text, FORTRAN 90 and 77, remedy many of the faults of earlier FORTRAN, encouraging a wide range of program writing. Exercises with solutions are provided to illustrate the text.

The realm of ultra precision mechanisms, for example in controlling motion to small fractions of a micrometer, is encroaching into many fields of technology. This book aims to provide a bridge for those moving from either an engineering or physics background towards the challenges offered by ultraprecision mechanisms. Using case study examples, this book provides a guide to basic techniques and gives technical, analytical and practical information.

Now, in a single convenient volume, you can have all the information you need on real-world applications of electromagnetic theory, including the prediction, analysis, and measurement of electromagnetic fields and their effects. RADIO FREQUENCY PRINCIPLES and APPLICATIONS will guide you from the basics of electromagnetic theory to the full range of new and vital applications.

A practical, accessible introduction to advanced geometry Exceptionally well-written and filled with historical and bibliographic notes, Methods of Geometry presents a practical and proof-oriented approach. The author develops a wide range of subject areas at an intermediate level and explains how theories that underlie many fields of advanced mathematics ultimately lead to applications in science and engineering. Foundations, basic Euclidean geometry, and transformations are discussed in detail and applied to study advanced plane geometry, polyhedra, isometries, similarities, and symmetry....
