Lifting the Scientific Veil has been written to afford the nonscience student the same meaningful opportunity to explore germane scientific topics as is generally given the science student to learn about the humanities and social sciences. Since nonscientists are generally responsible for making laws, financing research, or, at the very least, for voting, it is essential that they understand the significant impact that science has on everyday life. The book is designed to introduce nonscientists in an informative and comprehensible manner to four of the most significant scientific theories of the twentieth century: the big bang, quantum physics, relativity, and evolution. After each theory is explained informally, the book shows how that theory and related technology impact upon one's personal life. Legal and political aspects of these theories are explored as well as philosophical and theological implications.

Global challenges fill the news today. It's not always easy to balance fear with hope. That's why this book points to resources for optimism and action.

Seven Keys that will open the Book of Revelation to the Jesus follower of the first century and the twenty-first century with practical application and life lessons. This study cuts through the confusion and honors the library of Scripture through the ages. Writing on the Revelation of Jesus Christ is not just a daunting challenge but a humbling experience. The Scriptures are clear that there is nothing new under the sun; and I do not think my efforts are so unique as having not been considered before now. But I do hope to reintroduce The Revelation and this reality of a fresh and possibly renewed perspective into the conversation. My motive is to bring Gods amazing disclosure back into the Christian conversation devotionally and practically. I dont want to just make a point, I want to make a difference.

This collection of contemporary criticism explores her concern with racial and gender issues and analyzes her in relation to other major modern authors, her philosophical and religious speculations, and her preoccupation with the process of fiction-making. These classics provide a broad look at critical argument about Toni Morrison's meanings and significance during the past 10 years. From the formative effects of learning one's Otherness as a result of majority perception, to the apocalyptic implications of racial memory, to the moral and psychologically constructive act of storytelling, to the structural function served by improvisational jazz music, to the imagery associated with both flight and naming, to the uniquely female experience of community-major issues raised by Morrison's body of work are explicated here.
