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.
What if the commonly held beliefs concerning the Antichrist are
mistaken? The Antichrist and the Second Coming looks at the
Antichrist and the Second Advent of Christ from a preterist (i.e.,
past fulfillment) perspective and provides a unified interpretation
of the little horn, the prince to come, the king of the North, the
man of lawlessness, and the beast. This is the second in a two
volume set on the Antichrist; it focuses on the book of Revelation.
This edition stands on its own and is recommended reading even if
you have not read the first volume (which focuses on Daniel and 2
Thessalonians). McKenzie shows how the Antichrist was ultimately a
spiritual ruler from the abyss (Rev. 11:7) that worked through
Titus in his three-and-a-half-year destruction of the Jewish nation
(AD 67-70; cf. Dan. 9:26). This spirit of Antichrist was about to
come out of the abyss in the first century (Rev. 17:8 NASB) and was
destroyed by the Second Advent of Jesus in AD 70 (a spiritual
event). Continue reading to see how McKenzie convincingly makes the
biblical case for this fascinating and controversial position, and
what it means for us today. Dr. Duncan McKenzie is a licensed
psychologist (Ph.D. in psychology) who lives in Los Angeles,
California. He has been studying Bible prophecy for the past
twenty-five years and has been researching and writing this two
volume set for the last twelve years.

taken him in a very different direction.
This concise, clear and handy-sized volume, aimed at the
undergraduate level, provides an introduction to the observation,
description and identifi cation in thin section, using the
polarizing microscope, of samples of the commonlyoccurring rocks
and minerals. Illustrated with a wealth of full colour thin section
photomicrographs, and with the original images enhanced by new
examples and a revised text, the book explains how to observe
mineral and rock samples under the microscope. The book highlights
the important diagnostic features of minerals and deals with all
rock types - igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic - each with equal
emphasis and authority, giving students the knowledge and confi
dence to begin to identify specimens for themselves. While intended
for students in geology, geography, civil engineering and materials
science, the book stands on its own as a beautiful collection of
photomicrographs and a permanent source of reference and
fascination for all those interested in the nature and science of
the world of rocks and minerals.
Professor McKenzie proposes and formulates a method composed of
operational procedures designed to facilitate the evaluation of
economic projects and policies. This method is discussed fully,
illustrated by simple examples, and compared with alternative
procedures. An outline of a computer program that enables readers
to undertake their own calculations is included. In order to
present the approach clearly, the author provides an exposition of
the fundamental ideas and the main alternative approaches to the
problem. These rely on various forms of index numbers and consumer
surplus. However, as is well known, such measures are not capable
of correctly ordering the various alternatives under consideration,
except under highly unrealist assumptions. In this book the author
suggests the abandonment of this traditional approach based on the
concept of 'willingness-to-pay' or the conpensating variation.
Instead, the measure that Samuelson has called the 'money-metric'
should become the cornerstone of applied welfare economics.
'Hurray for Mackenzie and Guilford for at last we have a pictorial
guide to the rock-forming minerals! . . . such feasts of colour in
mineralogy books are rare . . . an admirable guide' New Scientist
Provides a very clear guide to sedimentary rock types as seen under
the microscope supported by practical aspects of slide preparation.

A great many of the most important developments in modern
economics were first revealed in the pages of Econometrica. This
selection of readings from that journal is the third in a series
and contains its editors' choice of the best articles in the
general area of macroeconomics and capital theory that appeared in
issues dating from 1935 to 1966. A broad range of topics is covered
in the 27 articles selected in order to indicate the general extent
of the field. A few of the articles were microeconomic in their
original intent but have a clear influence on later macroeconomic
theory.
Influential neoclassical economist Lionel McKenzie has made major
contributions to postwar economic thought in the fields of
equilibrium, trade, and capital accumulation. This selection of his
papers traces the development of his thinking in these three
crucial areas.McKenzie's early academic life took him to Duke,
Princeton, Oxford, the University of Chicago, and the Cowles
Commission. In 1957, he went to the University of Rochester to head
the economics department there, and he remains at Rochester, now
Wilson Professor Emeritus of Economics. McKenzie's most significant
research was undertaken during a period that saw the development of
the major themes of neoclassical economics and the use of
fundamental mathematical methods to do so. McKenzie contributed to
both aspects of this research program. He helped shape the
direction of the field and, at Rochester, influenced generations of
future scholars. In 2002, The MIT Press published McKenzie's
Classical General Equilibrium Theory, a detailed summary of the
model and methodology. This book, collecting his most important
papers in the form in which they were originally published, can be
seen as a companion to that one. The many state-of-the-art results
achieved in McKenzie's original papers present sophisticated
theoretical work that will continue to be important to future
developments in the discipline.
