In A Tale of Three Thirsty Cities: The Innovative Water Supply Systems of Toledo, London and Paris in the Second Half of the Sixteenth Century, Chaim Shulman presents an analysis of three projects of urban water supply systems carried out between 1560s–1610s. The technical and economic differences between these projects resulted from external conditions not directly related to the water supply problem. Although the same basic technology was apparently available at the time in all cases, the geographical, engineering, entrepreneurial and cultural nature of each region differed. The inhabitants’ wellbeing improvement achieved varied accordingly. Much broader insights are drawn on the policies of the three monarchies regarding the initiative of and support for grand scale public works in general.
What does Jesus mean when he says, "A disciple is not above his teacher, but each disciple, after being fully trained, will be like his teacher" (Luke 6:40)? This verse has been quoted, cited, and referenced in vast amounts of Christian education and discipleship literature. Nevertheless, the verse is nearly untouched in exegetical discussions with the exception of source-critical analyses. From this verse arises an undeveloped theme in the Gospel of Luke and the New Testament--the theme of likeness education. Using content analysis methodology, Luke 6:40--one of the keystone passages in Christian education literature--serves as the starting point for mining out the theme of likeness education in the New Testament. This study consists of three concentric areas of investigation: (1) Luke 6:40 and its immediate context, (2) Luke-Acts, and (3) the New Testament corpus.
『샬롬, 이 세상을 향한 하나님의 열정』은 외과 의사로서 Y국과 레바논에서 난민들을 위한 의료 사역, 현지 의사들과 간호사들을 훈련하기 위한 사역 등 무슬림들에게 하나님의 평화를 흘려보내고자 오랜 시간 노력한 저자의 실천과 성찰의 내용이 담겨 있다. 특히 샬롬의 의미를 성경적으로 조명함과 동시에 꾸란의 기록들과 민속적으로 내려온 질병에 대한 무슬림들의 관점을 다루면서 독자로 하여금 폭력과 전쟁으로 얼룩진 아랍 세계에 지금 가장 필요한 것은 샬롬, 즉 영육의 평화가 몹시 절실함을 알게 해준다. 또한 저자는 이 책에서 경험과 연구를 바탕으로 과거 의료 선교가 세계 선교에 어떠한 역할을 해왔으며, 앞으로의 변화에 맞춰 어떠한 모습으로 역할을 해나가야 하는지를 말하고 있는데, 이는 앞으로 의료 선교를 나갈 이들이나 단체가 의료 선교의 옳은 방향성을 점검하는 데 큰 도움이 될 것이다.
The need for an axiomatic treatment of homology and cohomology theory has long been felt by topologists. Professors Eilenberg and Steenrod present here for the first time an axiomatization of the complete transition from topology to algebra. Originally published in 1952. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
Materials and manufacturing techniques are a few of the vital processes in production industries. Most of the materials processing and manufacturing techniques currently used in industries are a major cause of environmental pollution and are hence unsustainable. This book provides in-depth knowledge about challenges faced during the processing of advanced materials and discusses possible ways to achieve sustainability in manufacturing. This book: Covers advances in cryogenic machining, optimization, and economical and energy assessment of machining Provides case studies and numerical design with analysis using computational fluid dynamics of minimum quantity lubrication mist droplets Reviews...
