Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

This book introduces the reader to the management consultancy
technique of Organizational Role Analysis--a technique with the
immensely practical purpose of helping managers to stay "in role
and on task." As such, it provides a coherent, superbly illustrated
framework for in-depth coaching. The ORA method is grounded in a
process of consultation that derives from the conjunction of open
systems theory, and psychodynamic understandings of human behavior.
It enables the collaborative resolution of the mental and emotional
tensions represented in the client's work role as he/she strives to
manage the dynamics between the organization-in-the-mind and the
organization-in-reality.While the method of Organizational Role
Analysis presented in this book has been evolving for three
decades, published accounts of the work have been sparse,
spasmodic, and relatively obscure. This book brings together the
work of experienced practitioners from around the globe who
illuminate the guiding concepts with lively, practical examples
that illustrate the variety of ways in which managers can receive
coaching in-depth. These accounts are complemented by an extensive
bibliography for further reading.Contributors: John Bazalgette,

Newton, Bruce Reed, and Burkard Sievers
Jesus was quite clear that we must lose our life before we find it.
This book gives a hopeful and realistic look at what losing our
life entails, articulating how "growth" in the Christian life is
not our ascent to God but the process by which our eyes are opened
to the beauty God has already given to us. It is a book about
descending into God, and into our own inner depths, about the deep
waters of the Christian faith. "Put out into the deep and let your
nets down for a catch." (Luke 5:4) We live in a world that values
productivity and success, and we vainly imagine that God expects us
to be spiritually productive and successful, too. It doesn't matter
how much we talk about grace, our conversation is often narrowly
focused on what we need to do for God-so much so that we often
block the work God longs to do in us. This book does not articulate
God's work as a process by which we become spiritually strong, but
rather as the process by which we embrace our weakness as the place
where we most fully experience God's perfect strength (2
Corinthians 12:9).
For John Newton, one of Christendom's greatest hymn writers and
writer of "Amazing Grace," God's matchless grace was intensely
personal. Saved from a life of slave trading, John Newton was fully
aware of the "depths from which he was pulled."
In this autobiography, revised and updated for today's readers
by Dennis Hillman, Newton relates the events that led him from
unimaginable sin and spiritual bondage to a life of ministry and
renewal--transformed by God's amazing and inexhaustible grace.
Discover the timeless story of John Newton's conversion and the
true meaning of the familiar words, "Amazing grace! How sweet the
sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now am
found; was blind, but now I see."
I have stood by their side in the grim conflict,"" wrote Union
Captain John Chamberlin. ""Woe to the nation that long upholds
their rights from them."" Chamberlin, commander of the 1st
Louisiana Native Guard, spent nearly five years in the South during
and after the Civil War. A well read, observant and articulate
writer, his letters and diaries record his unique perspective on
commanding black soldiers and engineers in the Corps d'Afrique.
More than an everyday account of camp life and battles,
Chamberlin's writings-here presented in historical context-give an
insider's view of the Union army's relationship with black troops
and the political and social implications of wartime events. Late
in the war, his correspondence focused on a schoolmate, Anna
Bullock, and their burgeoning relationship.
Its momentum building, the "Jesus Movement" is unfolding, with
Episcopalians longing to embody our branch of the movement in the
world. John Newton's contribution is this look at God's reckless
love. His aim is not for the head, but for the heart, to connect
people with their passion and love for Jesus Christ, reawakening
what may be dormant, because ultimately, it is not clever ideas but
passion that mobilizes people. The Jesus Movement is not about our
move toward God, but about a God who is for us in Christ Jesus,
constantly moving toward fragile and broken humanity, recklessly
loving us in all seasons and circumstances. Newton draws heavily
from the gospels, and speaks to the grace of God in Jesus Christ.
Each chapter begins with a gospel passage used to challenge the way
we think about God, love, morality, grace, mission, evangelism, and
the church. Three discussion questions in each chapter and the book
can be used as a 10-week study, with groups discussing two chapters
at a time. Chapters are intentionally short, and each unpacks a
specific episode in Jesus's life that illuminates the reckless love
of God in Christ.
A fresh, new voice in the Episcopal Church addresses traditionally
un-Episcopal questions that Episcopalians (and Christians in
general) are asking today * An emergent, yet Anglican and orthodox,
perspective on Biblical theology, grounded in today's context of
human behavior * Includes questions for reflection and study by
individuals and groups New Clothes speaks to two very specific
challenges we face at this unique time in the life of the church.
It would seem we are equally ineffective at transforming the lives
of the "un-churched" world as we are the established, declining
"churched" world. Whereas one group is altogether unfamiliar with
the Gospel, many sleepy pew sitters have become overly familiar
with it! And both cases leave people stuck. This new book lays out
the orthodox Christian message of hope in a way that speaks to each
group. Using modern psychological and biblical knowledge to refresh
historic Christian doctrines, including those of creation, sin,
atonement, spiritual rebirth, and resurrection, it offers a
springboard into practical measures we can take now to enter this
story so that we might be transformed. It is the book the church
needs as we re-imagine Christian life in the 21st century.
Coaching In Depth introduces the reader to the management
consultancy technique of Organizational Role Analysis (ORA); a
technique with the immensely practical purpose of helping managers
to stay "in role and on task". The ORA method is grounded in a
process of consultation that derives from the conjunction of open
systems theory and psychodynamic understandings of human behaviour.
It enables the collaborative resolution of the mental and emotional

"Computers in Translation" is a comprehensive guide to the
practical issues surrounding machine translation and computer-based
translation tools. Translators, system designers, system operators
and researchers present the facts about machine translation: its
history, its successes, its limitations and its potential. Three
chapters deal with actual machine translation applications,
discussing installations including the METEO system, used in Canada
to translate weather forecasts and weather reports, and the system
used in the Foreign Technology Division of the US Air Force. This
book should be of interest to academics and postgraduates studying
translation studies, language and linguistics, and to technical
publications managers, translators and technical authors.
