This book weaves a narrative that brilliantly illuminates the spiritual legacy and vibrant presence of God in the lives of missionaries connected to the Ambassadors for Christ, Inc. (AFC), those who inherited Leaman Place—the land of promise—and the author whom God called to write this book. It proclaims a powerful message: God is an ever-active, living presence, guiding us in the past and continuing to move in our lives today. We are instruments in His divine symphony, called to heed His commands. Through our obedience, God fulfills His will, enabling us to leave a profound and enduring impact that transcends our earthly existence. This legacy of faith magnifies the glory of God and inspires generations, calling nations to know Him and seek His face.
Under growing pressure from within and outside their economies, countries around the world have embarked upon wide-ranging programmes of financial reform. This handbook provides country studies of contemporary developments in financial reform in a selection of both developed and developing countries from Western Europe, North America, South America, Asia and Australia. The outcome is an account of the contemporary world-wide attempt to refashion the way in which the financial services industry (and especially the banking sector) is regulated and supervised.

Dynamic Variation in Second Language Acquisition makes a cutting-edge contribution to knowledge about how second language learners develop their second language. Drawing comprehensively on Processability Theory’s theoretical understanding that individual variation dynamically interacts with ordered stages of language acquisition, the book provides an informative, critical analysis of historical and contemporary debates about the role of variation in linguistic variation, particularly second language variation. Richly illustrated with a forensic year-long study of how eight adolescent learners of English vary in their acquisition of syntax and morphology, this monograph shows that learners vary in their timing of development between two distinct learner types along a continuum and without skipping stages. The book uncovers how learner variation is dynamic and quite (although not entirely) systematic and how this variation contributes to change in the second language. It will be essential reading for researchers, students, and practitioners.

China-expert Frank Dikötter toont de ware identiteit van wereldmacht China 'Een werk dat [...] iedereen zou moeten lezen die zich wil wapenen tegen al te makkelijke soundbites die experts elkaar vrijwel allemaal lijken na te zeggen.' ⬤⬤⬤⬤ NRC Al decennialang is de Volksrepubliek China bezig aan een ongekende opmars. Na het overlijden van Mao Zedong in 1976 raakte het land in een stroomversnelling op economisch gebied. Maar wat weten we nu echt over deze nieuwe grootmacht? Hoewel de economische groei onbetwistbaar is, blijkt veel informatie over de Chinese markt nog altijd onbetrouwbaar, incompleet of verdraaid. In deze nieuwe geschiedenis duikt historicus Frank Dikötter in de histo...
