Product Description
Confronting the Storms of Life; is a book that clearly speaks the heart of a Counselor. This is a book for anyone as it deals with what affects an average person irrespective of faith and belief. It builds the faith of the believers to where they can just hold on to God; when there seems not to be any answer to their questions. It provides a comfort for the present and a vision of hope for tomorrow even when conditions appear intractable, hopeless or even terminal.Non-Christians will find it a valuable introduction to God and Jesus Christ. They will hopefully feel the power of God and the grace of Jesus. It will hopefully serve as an invitation for coming into the family of God, through Jesus Christ.The author confronts issues from a practical life experience. His admonitions are thoughtful, insightful, honest and unvarnished. This is a book that will strengthen the weak; comfort the discomforted; lift up the down-hearted; and put a new spirit in the readers' walk and relationship with God. The subtitled, in words and spirit is a catalyst for Finding Comfort in Times of Need, to those who believe. ... Read more

A GREAT COMFORT TO READ
It is almost a given to expect palliatives and soft talk from friends and preachers when we encounter some crisis or painful event in our lives. What I found especially comforting about this book was that I was not just served the usual fare. Rather than give easy answers, it also took on head-long the difficult issue of righteous men and women who suffered, went through trying periods and kept their faith against all odds. One sees that there is comfort in overcoming as much as in the reality of God's presence right through our tribulations. The third chapter (It is the Bend and not the End) is especially faith building. The author's treatment in Chapter 4 of the events of 911 is the most balanced that I have read to date. I highly recommend this book for all - believers, non-believers and agnostics alike. ... Read more

Product Description
This pathbreaking study presents a new perspective on the role of derivation, the series of operations by which sentences are formed. Working within the Minimalist Program and focusing on English, the authors develop an original theory of generative syntax, providing illuminating new analyses of some central syntactic constructions. Two key questions are explored: first, can the Extended Projection Principle (EPP) be eliminated from Minimalist analysis without loss, and perhaps with a gain in empirical coverage; and second, is the construct 'A-Chain' similarly eliminable? The authors argue that neither EPP nor the A-chain is in fact a property of Universal Grammar, but rather their descriptive content can be deduced from independently motivated properties of lexical items, in accordance with overarching principles governing derivation. In investigating these questions, a range of new data is introduced, and existing data re-analyzed, presenting a pioneering challenge to fundamental assumptions in syntactic theory. ... Read more

The First Book In My Arsenal Against The Hep C Virus
As the Multicultural Outreach Coordinator for the Hepatitis C Association, I am truly excited about this book and all it has to offer to the African-American community. The information is easy to read, easy to understand, and relates well to its target audience.
Viral hepatitis - related cirrhosis is the leading cause for liver transplantation as well as the leading cause of liver cancer. There is no way we can transplant the anticipated
number of people who will develop cirrhosis, unless we diagnose folks earlier and treat them before the liver is irreversibly damaged or develop liver cancer. As African-Americans, we are most at risk from this disease, and not just from a medical angle, but socio-economically speaking, we will be adversely affected in every area of our lives.

This book is the wake-up call for African-Americans to take control of their health and lifestyle choices by getting tested early (NOW), and to become advocates for more research in this area.

Product Description

This ground-breaking study explores the treatment of the boundaries between poetry and historyin three epic literary works:Spenser's Faerie Queene, Samuel Daniel's Civil Wars, and Michael Drayton's Poly-Olbion. David Galbraith argues that each of the three national poems enters into a dialogue with classical and more contemporary predecessors and that this relationship has profound implications for understanding the English Renaissance. He explores the importance for each poem of various aspects of the relationship between England and Rome and the significance of the recurring spatial metaphors by which the territories of poetry and history are constituted, negotiated, and traversed.By presenting historically and theoretically inflected readings of the poems, Galbraith gives new interpretation to important problems of allegory and poetic imitation. ...

Product Description
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Samuel Daniel," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Samuel Daniel in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Samuel Daniel when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Samuel Daniel, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more
