This is a clear guide to the German financial system. It begins
by outlining its historical development, emphasising the growth of
close ties between the banking system and industry, and goes on to
describe in details the nature of the credit institutions in
general and the money and capital markets.
The book emphasizes the crucial role played by the autonomy of
the Bundesbank and it explains with clear illustrations the
instruments available to it to conduct monetary policy. It analyses
the type of monetary target adopted by the Bundesbank in the early
1970s and deals with the transferability of the West German
financial system to other countries. Wherever relevant, parallels
and differences between that system and the ones operating in the
US and UK are pointed out.

""What I particularly appreciated as I read through these texts is
that each one is an engaging meditation that combines sound
theology with poetic skill. I think they would be an enrichment to
any worshiping community and certainly food for personal reflection
and prayer."" The Most Rev. Frank T. Griswold, Presiding Bishop of
the Episcopal Church Before Michael Hudson was ordained, he was a
successful songwriter in the Contemporary Christian field with 75
hymns to his credit. As his journey led him to become a liberal
Anglican, he turned his considerable skill at matching text and
tune to writing hymn texts. He began a spiritual discipline of
writing a text for each of the gospels of the three-year cycle of
Scripture readings. The result is a collection of 153 beautiful,
evocative, and very singable poetic hymn texts. Each text can be
sung to at least one familiar hymn tune, making the material easily
accessible to congregations. A hymn tune index and a thematic index
provide additional planning possibilities. Based on the Episcopal
lectionary in the Book of Common Prayer, hymn tunes are suggested
for each text and are indexed metrically so that substitutions may
be made when necessary. Songs may be reproduced for congregational
use.
Men today have locked horns with their toughest issue: reclaiming
the full potential of manhood. Bestselling author Dr. Larry Crabb
asks, What gives manhood definition and meaning? In this updated
and expanded edition of The Silence of Adam, Crabb and his
colleagues, biblical scholar Don Hudson and counselor Al Andrews,
offer a fresh look at how God designed men. The book deals
thoughtfully and honestly with men's ongoing struggles and exposes
the difficulties they have in relationships. It presents the rich
calling men have to reveal God in ways uniquely masculine. And it
summons them beyond their paralyzing fear of failure to bold
risk-taking, courageous action, deep spirituality, and full-hearted
living. This new edition includes: Epilogue from Dr. Larry Crabb
