This book considers three defining movements driven from London and
within the region that describe the experience of the Church of
England in New England between 1686 and 1786. It explores the
radical imperial political and religious change that occurred in
Puritan New England following the late seventeenth-century
introduction of a new charter for the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the
Anglican Church in Boston and the public declaration of several
Yale 'apostates' at the 1722 college commencement exercises. These
events transformed the religious circumstances of New England and
fuelled new attention and interest in London for the national
church in early America. The political leadership, controversial
ideas and forces in London and Boston during the run-up to and in
the course of the War for Independence, was witnessed by and
affected the Church of England in New England. The book appeals to
students and researchers of English History, British Imperial
History, Early American History and Religious History.

Examines the controversial establishment of the first Anglican
Church in Boston in 1686, and how later, political leaders John
Adams, Samuel Adams, and John Wilkes exploited the disputes as
political dynamite together with taxation, trade, and the
quartering of troops: topics which John Adams later recalled as
causes of the American Revolution.

A concise treatment of topics from group theory and representation theory for use in a one-term course. Focussing on the non-commutative side of the field, this advanced textbook emphasizes the general linear group as the most important group and example.Readers are expected to be familiar with groups, rings, and fields, and to have a solid knowledge of linear algebra. Close to 200 exercises of varying difficulty serve both to reinforce the main concept of the text and to introduce the reader to additional topics.
The story of the origins of the first Anglican congregation
established in Boston and New England, Kings Chapel, is
significantly shaped by the gradually emerging imperial policies of
the government of Charles II during the late seventeenth century.
It is a transatlantic account influenced largely by two forces, one
in London, driven by the members of the Board of Trade and
Plantations, and the other in Boston, driven by a handful of
merchants with active and productive commercial ties with London
and Bristol trading firms. Extending the Church of England to
Puritan Boston after the revocation in 1684 of the Massachusetts
Bay Colony's first charter and the creation of the province as a
royal jurisdiction was received reluctantly by the town's
residents, who considered it a novel, abrupt, and unwanted
political and ecclesiastical act. This was not merely the extension
of a religious group from the Old World to the New, for the Church
of England was granted great political and cultural authority
through the laws of England's unwritten constitution.
The book contains an extensive repertory. It includes all that is
really valuable in homeopathy in the treatment of diarrhoea. This
book has saved thousands of lives.

This collection of important new research in 19th-century media
history represents some salient, recent developments in the field.
Taking as its theme, the ways the media serves to define
identities--national, ethnic, professional, gender, and textual,
the volume addresses serials in the UK, the US, and Australia. High
culture rubs shoulders with the popular press, text with image,
feminist periodicals and masculine, gay, and domestic serials.
Theory and history combine in research by scholars of international
repute.

This annual publication is devoted to the advancement of ethics
research and education in the profession and practice of
accounting. It aims to advance innovative and applied ethics
research in all accounting-related disciplines on a global basis;
to improve ethics education in and throughout the professional
accounting and management curricula at the undergraduate and
graduate levels; and to provide a source of information for the
professional eccounting and auditing community for integrating
ethics and good business practices in public firms, business
corporations, and governmental organizations. This annual's primary
objective is to provide a forum for business leaders and educators
to discuss and debate the plethora of ethical issues that affect
accounting organizations and the financial community in the USA and
abroad. It includes commentary and editorials from accounting
practitioners, standard setters and regulators. Papers are
empirical or theoretical in nature, and draw upon paradigms in
related disciplines such as philosophy, psychology, theology,
economics and sociology. Volume 2 includes a section on the public
interest considerations of ethical obligations of CPAs in
advertising and solicitation. Other subjects covered include:
ethics violations in the accountancy profession; applying
behavioural models as prescriptions for ethics in accountancy
practice and education; auditor's responsibility to the public; and
the impact of ethics education in accountancy curricula.

Ironically, although times were harder back then, the late 1970's
are still remembered by many as an era when things were at their
very best. And normally this would stand true...except now. The
year is 1977, and an entire city is being terrorized; Teenage
girls, all of them African American with exceptional beauty, are
being stalked and killed. The killer leaves them behind in an
unbelievable, clueless trail of death and mutilation with Detroit's
finest struggling just to keep up with the total body count.
Meanwhile, Darren Miles tells the most unusual but real life story
about family and friends and their hardships and happiness, a story
that could very well hit home for you too. It unfolds in a
seemingly endless number of bizarre events with family members and
friends who vary in such ways from being heroic and the most law
abiding citizens, to the kind of people who will forever be
mischievous and promiscuous. Nevertheless, after noting the
obvious, that anyone is capable of murder, one of them will turn
out to be the cold blooded killer everybody's been so afraid of
whom the police can't seem to find.
