The Bible, as we hold it today, is esteemed by many religious
institutions and especially Conservative Christians to be the
inspired, inerrant Word of God. This doctrinal position affirms
that the Bible is unlike all other books or collections of works in
that it is free of error due to having been "given by inspiration
of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for
correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God
may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works" (2 Tim.
3:16, 17). While no other text can claim this same unique
authority, the Apostolic Fathers included in this volume (also
called the Ante-Nicene Fathers), covers the Early Christian
writings from the beginning of Christianity until the promulgation
of the Nicene Creed at the First Council of Nicaea, which was
convened in Bithynia by the Roman Emperor Constantine I in AD 325.
As such, writings contained in this volume of The Researchers
Library of Ancient Texts (Volume Two: The Apostolic Fathers:
Includes Clement, Anthenagorus, Mathetes, Polycarp, Ignatius,
Barnabas, Papias, Justin Martyr, and Irenaeus), provides literature
that follows the chronology of New Testament texts, which
frequently are used or assigned as supplemental works within
academic settings to help students and scholars discover or better
understand cultural and historical context of the early Christian
Church. These ancient texts provide commentators valuable insight
into what many ancient Jews and early Christians believed when,
"God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past
unto the fathers by the prophets" (Heb. 1:1). The Researchers
Library of Ancient Texts is therefore intended to be a supplemental
resource for assisting serious researchers and students in the
study of the Bible and the early Church age. Contained in this
volume: The works of Clement, Anthenagorus, Mathetes, Polycarp,
Ignatius, Barnabas, Papias, Justin Martyr, and Irenaeus.
The business, commercial and public-sector world has changed
dramatically since John Oakland wrote the first edition of
Statistical Process Control - a practical guide in the
mid-eighties. Then people were rediscovering statistical methods of
'quality control' and the book responded to an often desperate need
to find out about the techniques and use them on data. Pressure
over time from organizations supplying directly to the consumer,
typically in the automotive and high technology sectors, forced
those in charge of the supplying production and service operations
to think more about preventing problems than how to find and fix
them. Subsequent editions retained the 'took kit' approach of the
first but included some of the 'philosophy' behind the techniques
and their use. The theme which runs throughout the 7th edition is
still processes - that require understanding, have variation, must
be properly controlled, have a capability, and need improvement -
the five sections of this new edition. SPC never has been and never
will be simply a 'took kit' and in this book the authors provide,
not only the instructional guide for the tools, but communicate the
management practices which have become so vital to success in
organizations throughout the world. The book is supported by the
authors' extensive and latest consulting work within thousands of
organisations worldwide. Fully updated to include real-life case
studies, new research based on client work from an array of
industries, and integration with the latest computer methods and
Minitab software, the book also retains its valued textbook quality
through clear learning objectives and end of chapter discussion
questions. It can still serve as a textbook for both student and
practicing engineers, scientists, technologists, managers and for
anyone wishing to understand or implement modern statistical
process control techniques.
Rather than approach debate primarily as a form of interscholastic
competition, this unique book identifies it as an activity that
occurs in many settings: scientific conferences, newspaper op-ed
pages, classrooms, courts of law, and everyday domestic life.
Debate is discussed as an integral part of academic inquiry in all
disciplines. As in all fields of study, various competing views are
advanced and supported; Debate and Critical Analysis is designed to
better prepare the student to assess and engage them. This text
posits four characteristics of true debate -- argument development,
clash, extension, and perspective -- which form the basic structure
of the book. Each concept or aspect of argument covered is
illustrated by an example drawn from contemporary or historical
sources, allowing the reader to actually see the techniques and
strategies at work. All popular forms of competitive debate,
including "policy," "Lincoln-Douglas," "value-oriented," and
"parliamentary," are discussed in detail -- as embedded in the
actual topical controversies with which they are concerned. In this
way, the student can learn the structures, reasoning processes, and
strategies that may be employed, as well as the practical affairs
of debating, from brief-writing to the flowsheet.
