The new edition aims to simplify the math, emphasize the theory,
and consolidate the information needed by electrical engineers and
technicians who support operations, maintenance, protective relay
systems, and betterment projects for generating stations and

electrical phenomenon and then provides additional insights into
electrical theory. Single phase and three phase electrical theory
is explained in a simplified manner that is not presented in other
books. All chapters have been expanded and updated, with the
inclusion of an entirely new chapter.
The Siesta Key Awakening is a quest concerning one man's yearning
to find his future. Tom Edwards, one of NYPD's finest detectives
and disillusioned, is searching for life's meaning, and struggling
to maintain direction. Duty bound to serve and protect, and not the
typical detective, his life is disarray. Tom is a ticking "time
bomb," with no hope, and suffering from a double loss. Tom has
haunting dreams of a woman. He knows what he wants, but how far
will he go to find her?
Law professors Thomas E. Baker and Timothy W. Floyd asked some of
their legal colleagues to respond to this provocative question:
"Can a good Christian be a good lawyer?" Here are twenty-one highly
personal narratives that answer the question of how each writer
tries, sometimes but not always successfully, to be both a good
Christian and a good lawyer. How does a lawyer called to live the
Gospel of Jesus Christ reconcile his or her faith with the secular
calling to the legal profession? The editors did not set out to
provide some kind of final resolution or unified consensus.
Instead, they have compiled a remarkable collection of reflections
by lawyers, judges, and academics who represent many different
branches of Christianity. The reader is likely to find many role
models to emulate and the inspiration to continue to fight the good
fight in these accounts grounded in legal and Christian thought.
Reading about these real-life ethical dilemmas, conflicting
loyalties, and personal difficulties offers the reassurance that
others have shared their ongoing struggle to rhyme their career
with their faith. Although every lawyer will find Can a Good
Christian Be a Good Lawyer? especially meaningful, these essays
speak to all persons of faith who strive to practice their beliefs
in their work.
These 21 personal narratives answer the question of how each writer
tries, sometimes but not always successfully, to be both a good
Christian and a good lawyer. Reading about these real-life ethical
dilemmas, conflicting loyalties, and personal difficulties should
offer reassurance.
