Contentment, Prosperity, and God's Glory (Paperback): Jeremiah Burroughs Contentment, Prosperity, and God's Glory (Paperback)
Jeremiah Burroughs; Edited by Philip L. Simpson
R260 R213 Discovery Miles 2 130 Save R47 (18%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

"Why is it difficult to be content when you have so much?

On the surface, it seems unnecessary to instruct someone to be content in times of prosperity. However, times of prosperity and abundance provide some of the strongest temptations to pull our hearts away from God. Jeremiah Burroughs was keenly aware that the riches of this world compete for our affections and challenge our contentment in Christ. Originally prepared as an appendix to The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment, this book provides an important conclusion to Burroughs's sermon series on Philippians 4:11 12: "I have learned in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need."

The Syntax of the Albanian Verb Complex (Paperback): Philip L Hubbard The Syntax of the Albanian Verb Complex (Paperback)
Philip L Hubbard
R1,071 Discovery Miles 10 710 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This work, first published in 1985, is an analysis of the syntax of the Albanian verb complex. The term "verb complex" is defined here as the verb stem and its conjugational endings, together with the perfect auxiliaries and verb clitics. In a wider sense the verb includes the verb and its central arguments: subject, direct object, and indirect object. The analysis is presented in a somewhat expanded version of the relational grammar framework of Perlmutter and Postal (1977). It is argued that by assuming the existence of multiple levels in the syntactic structure of a clause, it is possible to account for the distribution of active and non-active verb forms over the various constructions of Albanian with a single generalisation. This title will be of interest to students of language and linguistics.

East Meets West - Banking, Commerce and Investment in the Ottoman Empire (Paperback): Monica Pohle Fraser East Meets West - Banking, Commerce and Investment in the Ottoman Empire (Paperback)
Monica Pohle Fraser; Edited by Philip L Cottrell
R1,592 Discovery Miles 15 920 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Bringing together cultural, economic and social historians from across Europe and beyond, this volume offers a consideration from a number of perspectives of the principal forces that further integrated the Ottoman Empire and Western Europe during the first century of industrialisation. The essays not only review and analyse the commercial, financial and monetary factors, negative as well as positive, that bore upon the region's initial stages of modern transformation, but also provide a ready introduction to major aspects of the economy and society of the Ottoman Empire in the nineteenth century. Beginning with two chapters providing the context to the development of Ottoman relations with Western Europe up to the second half of the nineteenth century, the collection then moves on to explore more specific questions of trade links, the impact of improved transportation and communications, the development and changing nature of Ottoman finance and banking, as well as European investment in Turkey. The outcome is a broad ranging consideration of how all these issues played a fundamental role in the final decades of the Ottoman Empire and the emergence of Turkey as a modern state with links to both east and west. The essays in this collection derive from the EABFH colloquium held in the Imperial Mint, Istanbul, in October 1999.

The third edition of this major work provides a systematic, comparative assessment of the efforts of a selection of major countries, including the US, to deal with immigration and immigration issues--paying particular attention to the ever-widening gap between their migration policy goals and outcomes.
Retaining its comprehensive coverage of nations built by immigrants and those with a more recent history of immigration, the new edition pays particular attention to the tensions created by post-colonial immigration, and explores how countries have attempted to control the entry and employment of legal and illegal Third World immigrants, how they cope with the social and economic integration of these new waves of immigrants, and how they deal with forced migration.

James F. Hollifield, Philip L Martin, Pia M. Orrenius, François Héran
R909 Discovery Miles 9 090 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The fourth edition of this classic work provides a systematic, comparative assessment of the efforts of major immigrant-receiving countries and the European Union to manage migration, paying particular attention to the dilemmas of immigration control and immigrant integration. Retaining its comprehensive coverage of nations built by immigrants—the so-called settler societies of the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand— the new edition explores how former imperial powers—France, Britain and the Netherlands—struggle to cope with the legacies of colonialism, how social democracies like Germany and the Scandinavian countries balance the costs and benefits of migration while maintaining strong welfare states, and how more recent countries of immigration in Southern Europe—Italy, Spain, and Greece—cope with new found diversity and the pressures of border control in a highly integrated European Union. The fourth edition offers up-to-date analysis of the comparative politics of immigration and citizenship, the rise of reactive populism and a new nativism, and the challenge of managing migration and mobility in an age of pandemic, exploring how countries cope with a surge in asylum seeking and the struggle to integrate large and culturally diverse foreign populations.

The Structure of Biological Membranes (Hardcover, 3rd edition): Philip L. Yeagle The Structure of Biological Membranes (Hardcover, 3rd edition)
Philip L. Yeagle
R6,412 Discovery Miles 64 120 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Biological membranes provide the fundamental structure of cells and viruses. Because much of what happens in a cell or in a virus occurs on, in, or across biological membranes, the study of membranes has rapidly permeated the fields of biology, pharmaceutical chemistry, and materials science. The Structure of Biological Membranes, Third Edition provides readers with an understanding of membrane structure and function that is rooted in the history of the field and brought to the forefront of current knowledge.

The first part of the book focuses on the fundamentals of lipid bilayers and membrane proteins. Three introductory chapters supply those new to the field with the tools and conceptual framework with which to approach the state-of-the-art chapters that follow. The second part of the book presents in-depth analyses of focused subjects within the study of membranes, covering topics that include:

  • Phase behavior of lipid bilayers
  • Lipid bilayers as an isolated structure
  • Cholesterol's role in cell biology
  • Lateral organization of membranes
  • The role of membrane lipids in initial membrane protein folding
  • Membrane protein synthesis and assembly of oligomeric membrane proteins
  • Membrane protein stability with relationships to function and protein turnover
  • Membrane protein function using a transport protein
  • Interactions between membrane proteins and membrane lipids

A final chapter pulls together many of the topics, examining in detail the complexity inherent in the synthesis and assembly of lipids and proteins in mitochondrial membranes. With contributions from leading researchers, this completely revised and updated third edition reflects recent advances in the field of biological membranes. It offers a valuable resource for students, as well as structural biologists, biophysicists, cell biologists, biochemists, and researchers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

What's New in This Edition:

  • Three accessible chapters introduce students to the field of biological membranes
  • Completely revised and updated chapters present current topics in membrane research

Bryan Rennie, Philip L. Tite
R4,156 Discovery Miles 41 560 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

September 11 and the subsequent War on Terror continues to cast a long shadow over the world. Religion, Terror and Violence brings together a group of distinguished scholars from a range of backgrounds and disciplines to explore the claim that acts of violence - most spectacularly the attack of September 11, 2001 and the international reaction to it - were intimately linked to cultural and social authorizing processes that could be called 'religious.'

This book provides a nuanced but incisive insight into the reaction of the discipline of religious studies to the post 9/11 world.
