A key focus is the Dani people of Irian Jaya, who transitioned from the Stone Age to modernity, embracing the gospel of Jesus and their role as His helpers, illustrating the profound impact of spiritual awakening across cultures and generations.
Designed for advanced electronics engineering technology students, this textbook features nine chapters filled with multiple solved examples. It also offers thirteen advanced laboratory experiments, covering topics such as ST fiber termination and optical crosstalk, providing practical applications to enhance learning and understanding of complex concepts in the field.
The textbook provides a foundational exploration of three key areas in physics: thermodynamics, special relativity, and quantum mechanics. Each topic is presented in a way that emphasizes core principles and concepts, making complex ideas accessible to readers. It aims to equip students with a solid understanding of these fundamental aspects of physics, fostering a deeper appreciation of the subject.
The history of World War One is already well known and understood - or is it? Marking the centenary of this tragic episode in world history, author John Dekker give an insightful and uncompromising 'revisionist' account of the leading characters and personalities behind Britain's entry into the First World War. In doing so, Dekker asks disturbing questions of a socio-political culture that first of all nurtured and promoted a privileged elite into positions of unquestioned power and authority, and then deferred to their often-capricious and self-serving decisions - decisions that would end up costing millions their lives. Secrecy, subterfuge and propaganda were not the only tools used to convince trusting citizens of their solemn 'duty' - ordinary citizens who, to this day, continue to pay dearly for the lessons yet to be properly learnt. "This book will be essential reading for anyone who wants to know why so many British men were killed and wounded on the Western Front between 1914 and 1918 - the politics of Edwardian defence were devious, populated by men who put service ahead of country, and self above all." A review by Professor Andrew Lambert, Department of War Studies, Kings College, London, UK.
