"A brilliant study of the Hebrew prophets, one of the most
penetrating works . . . [of] our time."-- Will Herberg From the
legendary twentieth-century Jewish Theologian and author of Man is
Not Alone and God in Search of Man, comes a beautiful new hardcover
edition of Abraham Heschel's masterwork of Biblical scholarship,
The Prophets. When it was first published in 1962, The Prophets was
hailed as a masterpiece. Since then, Heschel's classic work has
stood the test of time. The Prophets provides a unique opportunity
for readers of all faiths to gain a fresh perspective and deep
knowledge of the Old Testament and Israel's ancient prophetic
movement. Heschel's profound understanding of the prophets and
detailed examinations of them, including Amos, Hosea, Isahiah,
Micah, and Jeremiah, offers crucial insights into the philosophy of
religion that continue to hold relevance for modern scholars and
laymen alike.
This book explores the latest data dealing with mechanosensitive
channels research results. It was compiled by a group of
internationally recognized scientists leading in the field of
mechanosensitive ion channels or mechanically gated channels and
signaling cascades research. Key problems of cell mechanobiology
are also discussed. As a whole, the volume dwells on the major
issues of mechanical stress influencing the ion channels and
intracellular signaling pathways.
This book presents the latest findings in mechanosensitive ion
channel research compiled by a number of internationally recognized
experts in the field of mechanosensitivity, specializing in
mechanosensitive or mechanically gated ion channels and the
underlying mechanosensitive signaling cascades. The book provides a
comprehensive description of mechanotransduction, which is defined
as the biochemical response of cells to mechanical stimulation, and
provides the reader with the latest vision of signaling cascades.
Descriptions of the most widely used experimental models, the
methods of choice and references to experimental protocols, the
latest experimental findings and current vision, and potential
problems in data interpretation, will be of considerable use to all
those interested in this field of research.

One of the world's most illustrious and influential theologians
here confronts one of the crucial philosophical and religious
questions of our time: the nature and role of man. In these three
lectures, originally delivered in somewhat different form as The
Raymond Fred West Memorial Lectures at Stanford University in May
1963, Dr. Heschel inquires into the logic of being human: What is
meant by being human? What are the grounds on which to justify a
human being's claim to being human?
In the author's words, "We have never been as openmouthed and
inquisitive, never as astonished and embarrassed at our ignorance
about man. We know what he makes, but we do not konw wha he is or
what to expect of him. Is it not conceivable that our entire
civilization is built upon a minsinterpretation of man? Or that the
tragedy of man is due to the fact that he is a being who has
forgotten the question: Who is Man? The failure to identify
himself, to know what is authentic human existence, leads him to
assume a false identity, to pretending to be what he is unable to
be or to not accepting what is at the very root of his being.
Ignorance about man is not lack of knowledge, but false knowledge."
