 Salma Said Ali, "Transit to Heaven" English | ISBN: 1905991061 | 2015 | 144 pages | EPUB, MOBI | 248 KB + 310 KB Salma Said Ali was brought up as a devout Muslim on the island of Zanzibar. Following the failure of her first marriage she re-married and moved with her husband to England. Here through the prophetic ministry of one man, accompanied by various dreams and other heavenly signs she became convinced that Jesus (Issa), whom she had always believed to be one of the prophets of God, is in fact the divine Son of God - God made human - and was baptised. After several years as a secret believer she eventually confessed this to her family, facing the rejection that she knew would come but bearing it for the sake of her new faith. A fascinating account of Salma's journey to Christian faith and insight into the life of a Muslim woman honestly seeking God.  Jens Schroter, "Torah, Temple, Land: Constructions of Judaism in Antiquity " English | ISBN: 3161598539 | 2021 | 323 pages | PDF | 3 MB The present volume contains the proceedings of a conference held in October 2018 at Humboldt University Berlin. The articles reflect the different categories of describing Judaism of the Second Temple Period in view of their sustainability in characterising an ancient religious community in different historical situations and discuss relevant (re)constructions of ancient Judaism in the history of scholarship. Since the Persian period, ancient Judaism existed in a world which was in constant flux regarding its political, social, and religious contexts. Consequently, Judaism was subject to permanent processes of change in its self-perception as well as its external perception. In all complexity, however, the Torah, the Temple(s) as a place where heaven meets the earth, and the 'holy' or 'promised' land as the dwelling place of God's people can be regarded as institutions to which all kinds of Judaism in the Babylonian and Egyptian dispora as well in Israel/Palestine were related in some way or another.  Bill Bradley, "Time Present, Time Past: A Memoir" English | 1997 | ISBN: 0679768157, 0679444882 | EPUB | pages: 480 | 2.7 mb During his terms in the U.S. Senate, Bill Bradley won a national reputation for thoughtfulness, decency, and a willingness to take controversial positions on issues ranging from tax reform to the rights of Native Americans. All these qualities inform this best-selling memoir, in which Bradley assesses his political career and the experiences that shaped his convictions, and looks beyond them to consider the state of the American union on the eve of the 21st century. Time Present, Time Past offers an intimate portrait of the day-to-day working of the Senate: how legislation gets passed and sometimes thwarted; how money is raised and at what cost. But Bradley also writes about deeper questions: What does it means to be an American in an ago of dwindling opportunities and increasing inequality? How much can we expect from our public servants? What do we owe our fellow citizens? The result is a genuinely revelatory book, informed by intelligence, compassion, and unprecedented candor.

 Theoretical Study on Graphite and Lithium Metal as Anode Materials for Next-Generation Rechargeable Batteries English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811389136 | 75 Pages | PDF (True) | 3.31 MB This thesis describes in-depth theoretical efforts to understand the reaction mechanism of graphite and lithium metal as anodes for next-generation rechargeable batteries. The first part deals with Na intercalation chemistry in graphite, whose understanding is crucial for utilizing graphite as an anode for Na-ion batteries. The author demonstrates that Na ion intercalation in graphite is thermodynamically unstable because of the unfavorable Na-graphene interaction. To address this issue, the inclusion of screening moieties, such as solvents, is suggested and proven to enable reversible Na-solvent cointercalation in graphite. Furthermore, the author provides the correlation between the intercalation behavior and the properties of solvents, suggesting a general strategy to tailor the electrochemical intercalation chemistry. The second part addresses the Li dendrite growth issue, which is preventing practical application of Li metal anodes. A continuum mechanics study considering various experimental conditions reveals the origins of irregular growth of Li metal. The findings provide crucial clues for developing effective counter strategies to control the Li metal growth, which will advance the application of high-energy-density Li metal anodes.  David Hine, "The regulation of standards in British public life: Doing the right thing?" English | ISBN: 0719097134 | 2016 | 312 pages | EPUB | 2 MB One of the most profound changes in British public life over the last twenty years has been the increasing concern with probity and standards. Some of that concern has been the product of scandals such as the cash for questions affair and the expenses scandal; some of it reflects the erosion of trust in politicians and in traditional approaches to government and administration. The book analyses the way new machinery and new rules have been put in place in different parts of the public sector as a protection against corruption and conflict of interest and as a spur to raising standards. It provides the first full-length treatment of the evolving integrity agenda in the United Kingdom.
