Promise and Prayer

The Biblical Writings in the Light of Speech-Act Theory

By: Anthony C. Thiselton

In the Bible, promise and prayer are essential and connected components of the inter-personal relationship between God and his people. And both promise and prayer are kinds of action undertaken by means of speaking, utterances philosophers refer to as speech acts. In the case of promises this is clear: they constitute firm commitments to act in certain ways under appropriate conditions. This book considers biblical examples of divine promise, from both Old and New Testaments. All speech acts depend upon institutional facts, and Thiselton argues that in the biblical writings Divine promises are based on the prior institution of God's covenant. That same covenant forms the institutional context of prayer. Thiselton shows how different kinds of prayer--blessing, thanksgiving and praise, petition and intercession--count as speech acts in different ways and to different degrees.

The New Retirementality

Planning Your Life and Living Your Dreams-- at Any Age You Want

By: Mitch Anthony

Sipping martinis and playing golf may be your dream of an ideal retirement, but chances are that's not where you'll end up. Because your retirement may span 30 years or longer, endless days of leisure can quickly lead to boredom, depression, and discontent. What is appealing to most of us is a life of fulfillment and purpose, one in which "retirement" plays an important role-the passage from one stage of life to another. When The New Retirementality was originally published, dot-coms were still darlings, terrorism was not a daily reality, and corporate corruption had not sapped our trust. Whether by choice or not, most of us now realize that we probably won't experience the same retirement our parents did-nor do we necessarily want to. That's good news! The New Retirementality is the ability to achieve the freedom to pursue your own goals, at your own pace, on your own terms...regardless of your age. In this newly revised second edition of the book that defined what retirement will look like in the future, you will learn how to retire on purpose, with purpose-and change your life. Book jacket.

Adhesion and Adhesives

Science and Technology

By: Anthony J. Kinloch

Over the last decade, or so, the growth in the use of adhesives, especially in ever more technically demanding applications, has been rapid and many major developments in the technology of adhesives have been reported. This growth has also led to attention being focused on somewhat more basic studies of the science of adhesion and adhesives, and in recent years our level of fundamental knowledge concerning the formation and mechanical performance of adhesive joints has increased dramatically. Such studies have, of course, been aided greatly by the development of the tools at the disposal of the investigators. For example, specific surface analytical techniques, such as X-ray photoelectron and secondary-ion mass spectroscopy, and the increasingly sophisticated methods of stress analysis and fracture mechanics have been put to good use in furthering our understanding of the science of adhesion and adhesives. The present book attempts to review the multidisciplined subject of adhesion and adhesives, considering both the science and technology involved in the formation and mechanical performance of adhesive joints. The author would like to thank his friends and colleagues for useful discus sions and help in the preparation of this book. I am particularly grateful to P. Cawley, J. Comyn, W. A. Lees, A. C. Roulin-Moloney, W. C. Wake, J. G. Williams and R. J. Young who have read and commented on various chapters and P. Farr for preparing the diagrams.
