Two landmark books - I Am Divine, So Are You and Behold, I Make All Things New - attempted to correct that misconception by putting forth perspectives on sexuality from Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Judaism, Islam and Christianity. They recast religion as an ally, not an adversary, of queer emancipation. ![]() High-k Materials in Multi-Gate FET Devices (Science, Technology, and Management) by Shubham Tayal, Parveen Singla English | September 17, 2021 | ISBN: 0367639688 | 176 pages | PDF | 27 MB High-k Materials in Multi-Gate FET Devices focuses on high-k materials for advanced FET devices.
