Free Download Hannah Kay, "Thinking Biblically about Islam: Genesis, Transfiguration, Transformation"
English | 2016 | ISBN: 1783689129 | EPUB | pages: 346 | 3.1 mb
In this careful double exposition of the Bible and Islam, Ida Glaser and Hannah Kay emphasize godly attitudes, loving action and a deep appreciation of God's grace and goodness as essential traits of any Christian. The authors walk the reader through two underlying frameworks necessary to think biblically about Islam. The first is to understand the dynamic of religion in people's lives through Genesis 4-11's account of the world after 'the fall', and hence to understand Bible stories within the religious contexts in which they occurred. The second is at the heart of the book - the idea that Islam inverts the exaltation of Christ above the prophets in the narrative of the transfiguration in Luke 9 and 10. Examining the themes of the land, zeal, law and the cross in these chapters of Luke's Gospel and the Old Testament stories of Moses and Elijah, we are led to better understand the Bible, Islam and God's heart towards Muslims.

Free Download Theory and Simulation Experimental Technology of Oil Generation From Nonmarine Source Rocks in China
English | 2025 | ISBN: 9819631440 | 317 Pages | PDF (True) | 31 MB
Guided by organic geochemical methodologies, this book conducts a comparative analysis of the characteristics of oil source rocks deposited across various geological eras within typical continental oil-bearing basins, revisits several issues concerning the oil generation theory of continental oil source rocks, and reshapes organic geochemical thinking methods and simulation experimental techniques, challenging the traditionally dominant "artificial petroleum" theory and experimental techniques. The book is divided into three parts: "Introduction," "Characteristics of Oil Source Rocks in Typical Continental Oil-Bearing Basins in China," and "Simulation Experiments on Oil Generation of Continental Oil Source Rocks," encompassing a total of 12 chapters and 143 figures. It delves into the petroleum geological evolution during the stages of continuous subsidence, overall uplift and denudation, and full shrinkage in major basins such as the Junggar, Ordos, Sichuan, Songliao, and Bohai Bay. The book analyzes the characteristics of the main oil source rocks, develops an oil generation simulation instrument for continental oil source rocks, establishes the experimental technology for low-temperature catalytic cracking of source rocks to simulate oil generation, and reveals the oil generation mechanism of the "geological molecular sieve" and favorable conditions for oil generation in source rocks. It offers new ideas and methods for the evaluation of petroleum resources in continental oil-bearing basins and can be a reference for researchers engaged in petroleum geological and geochemical research, as well as teachers and students working in related fields.

Free Download Theatre Symposium, Vol. 22 : Broadway and Beyond: Commercial Theatre Considered By David S. Thompson; Erin Scheibe; Jane Barnette; Dean Adams; John Patrick Bray; Tony Gunn; Boone J. Hopkins; Jae Kyoung Kim; Jacek Mikolajczyk; George Pate
2014 | 139 Pages | ISBN: 0817370099 | PDF | 1 MB
That theatre is a business remains a truth often ignored by theatre insiders and consumers of the performing arts alike. The essays in "Theatre Symposium, Volume 22" explore theatre as a commercial enterprise both historically and as a continuing part of the creation, production, and presentation of contemporary live performance. a The eleven contributors to this fascinating collection illuminate many aspects of commercial theatre and how best to examine it. George Pate analyzes the high-stakes implication of a melodramatic legal battle. Christine Woodworth recounts the difficulties encountered by British actresses near the turn of the twentieth century, while Boone J. Hopkins considers newly found images of Margo Jones along with the commercial appeal they represent. a The volume continues with articles that follow developments with ties to commercial theatre, such as the interplay between Broadway companies and regional theatres, musical productions in communist Poland, and the influence of Korean popular culture on theatre and the unique production arrangements that have resulted. Other essays investigate alternative concepts related to commercial themes with regard to audience interaction and the burgeoning world of geek theatre. a Edited by David S. Thompson, this latest publication by the largest regional theatre organization in the United States collects the most current scholarship on theatre history and theory. "

Free Download The Universal CoeffIcient Theorem for $C^*$-Algebras with Finite Complexity (Memoirs of the European Mathematical Society) by Rufus Willett, Guoliang Yu
English | February 15, 2024 | ISBN: 3985470669 | 108 pages | PDF | 0.88 Mb
A $C^*$-algebra satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem (UCT) of Rosenberg and Schochet if it is equivalent in Kasparov's $K$-theory to a commutative $C^*$-algebra. This book is motivated by the problem of establishing the range of validity of the UCT, and in particular, whether the UCT holds for all nuclear $C^*$-algebras. The authors introduce the idea of a $C^*$-algebra that "decomposes" over a class $\mathcal{C}$ of $C^*$-algebras. Roughly, this means that locally there are approximately central elements that approximately cut the $C^*$-algebra into two $C^*$-sub-algebras from $C$ that have well-behaved intersection. The authors show that if a $C^*$-algebra decomposes over the class of nuclear, UCT $C^*$-algebras, then it satisfies the UCT. The argument is based on a Mayer-Vietoris principle in the framework of controlled $K$-theory; the latter was introduced by the authors in an earlier work. Nuclearity is used via Kasparov's Hilbert module version of Voiculescu's theorem, and Haagerup's theorem that nuclear $C^*$-algebras are amenable. The authors say that a $C^*$-algebra has finite complexity if it is in the smallest class of $C^*$-algebras containing the finite-dimensional $C^*$-algebras, and closed under decomposability; their main result implies that all $C^*$-algebras in this class satisfy the UCT. The class of $C^*$-algebras with finite complexity is large, and comes with an ordinal-number invariant measuring the complexity level. They conjecture that a $C^*$-algebra of finite nuclear dimension and real rank zero has finite complexity; this (and several other related conjectures) would imply the UCT for all separable nuclear $C^*$-algebras. The authors also give new local formulations of the UCT, and some other necessary and sufficient conditions for the UCT to hold for all nuclear $C^*$-algebras.
