The Name Quest

Explore the Names of God to Grow in Faith and Get to Know Him Better

By: John Avery

“Leaves no ‘stone’ unturned in its author’s search for names, titles and descriptions of the persons of the Trinity found in the Bible.” —Ronald F. Youngblood, American biblical scholar and general editor of Nelson’s Illustrated Bible Dictionary The names of God are like a rainbow—each name expresses part of the spectrum of the character and attributes of God. Along the way, the author tenderly answers tough questions: Which of the Hebrew names of God is His personal name—Yahweh or Jehovah? What does it mean to pray in Jesus’ name? How can we relate to the Holy God and the Judge? Why is a God of love called the “Jealous God?” What does it mean to call Jesus the Messiah? The Name Quest mentions all the names of God in the Bible while explaining their significance in ordinary language. “No one has ever met God completely or exhaustively. But God invites you to know Him. Like a clear trail in a forest, the names of God lead you deeper into the heart of God. In his book, The Name Quest, John Avery leads us deeper into God’s heart. Enjoy the journey!” —Floyd McClung, International Director, All Nations. “What’s in a name? John Avery takes us on the ultimate exploration of the Ultimate Name. With both exhaustive research and engaging narrative, John’s work and wit will be a blessing to any sojourner’s quest. Layperson, teacher, and serious seeker alike will be challenged and edified.” —Sam Skillern, Salem Leadership Foundation “The Name Quest, is both light heartedly delightful and deeply thoughtful. It engages the theological mind with a fresh and lively tone.” —Cheryl Bear-Barnetson, Native Musician and Foursquare Pastoral Overseer, Canada

The Science of War

Canadian Scientists and Allied Military Technology During the Second World War

By: Donald Avery

The Second World War, with its emphasis on innovative weapons and defence technology, brought about massive changes in the role of scientists in Canada, the United States, and Great Britain. Canadian scientists, working through the auspices of the National Research Council and the Department of National Defence, made important contributions to the development of alliance warfare. Before 1939, Canada had only a minute military establishment and a limited industrial and academic capacity for research and development. With the outbreak of war, all this changed dramatically. This book explains how and why Canada was able to play in the big leagues of military technology, including the development of radar, RDX explosives, proximity fuses, chemical and biological warfare, and the atomic bomb. It also investigates the evolution of the Canadian national security state, which attempted to protect defence secrets both from the Axis powers and from Canada's wartime ally, the Soviet Union. The Science of War provides both a cross-disciplinary overview of the scientific and military activity of this period in several countries and a fascinating analysis of what the author calls 'Big Science' in Canada.

Pathogens for War

Biological Weapons, Canadian Life Scientists, and North American Biodefence

By: Donald H. Avery

Pathogens for War explores how Canada and its allies have attempted to deal with the threat of germ warfare, one of the most fearful weapons of mass destruction, since the Second World War. In addressing this subject, distinguished historian Donald Avery investigates the relationship between bioweapons, poison gas, and nuclear devices, as well as the connection between bioattacks and natural disease pandemics. Avery emphasizes the crucially important activities of Canadian biodefence scientists – beginning with Nobel Laureate Frederick Banting – at both the national level and through cooperative projects within the framework of an elaborate alliance system. Delving into history through a rich collection of declassified documents, Pathogens for War also devotes several chapters to the contemporary challenges of bioterrorism and disease pandemics from both national and international perspectives. As such, readers will not only learn about Canada’s secret involvement with biological warfare, but will also gain new insights into current debates about the peril of bioweapons – one of today’s greatest threats to world peace.

The Hawthorn Archive

Letters from the Utopian Margins

By: Avery F. Gordon

The Hawthorn Archive, named after the richly fabled tree, has long welcomed the participants in the various Euro-American social struggles against slavery, racial capitalism, imperialism, and authoritarian forms of order. The Archive is not a library or a research collection in the conventional sense but rather a disorganized and fugitive space for the development of a political consciousness of being indifferent to the deadly forms of power that characterize our society. Housed by the Archive are autonomous radicals, runaways, abolitionists, commoners, and dreamers who no longer live as obedient or merely resistant subjects. In this innovative, genre- and format-bending publication, Avery F. Gordon, the “keeper” of the Archive, presents a selection of its documents—original and compelling essays, letters, cultural analyses, images, photographs, conversations, friendship exchanges, and collaborations with various artists. Gordon creatively uses the imaginary of the Archive to explore the utopian elements found in a variety of resistive and defiant activity in the past and in the present, zeroing in on Marxist critical theory and the black radical tradition. Fusing critical theory with creative writing in a historical context, The Hawthorn Archive represents voices from the utopian margins, where fact, fiction, theory, and image converge. Reminiscent of the later fictions of Italo Calvino or Walter Benjamin’s Arcades Project, The Hawthorn Archive is a groundbreaking work that defies strict disciplinary, methodological, and aesthetic boundaries. And like Ghostly Matters: Haunting and the Sociological Imagination, which established Gordon as one of the most influential interdisciplinary scholars of the humanities and social sciences in recent years, it provides a kaleidoscopic analysis of power and effect. The Hawthorn Archive’s experimental format and inventive synthesis of critical theory and creative writing make way for a powerful reconception of what counts as social change and political action, offering creative inspiration and critical tools to artists, activists, scholars across various disciplines, and general readers alike.

A new fate awaits, despite the danger Paisley Fitzwilliam is not supposed to be alive. Her stars told her she was going to die, and she did—stabbed by the Dark Dragon. Against all logic, she has come back through the Veil and now has to deal with the wreck that was left behind. Her mother is dead and her brother, Dax, has been taken by the fierce and mysterious dragon riders, the Krigare. To make matters more complicated, Paisley receives a message that the Chief Designer wants to gift her a second set of stars. A new track to follow in life. A fresh start after her rebirth—something the Chief Designer has never offered before. But the stars have brought Paisley nothing but pain, and she no longer wants anything to do with them. She just wants to rescue her brother and stay safe from the Dark Dragon. And so Paisley begins the journey to the icy Northern Realms accompanied by her trusted friends. Her plan is to bring their new Dragon Guard companion, Hal Northman, home to the north and pray that the Krigare will give her Dax in exchange for him. She only hopes that they make it before Dax is further imperiled. Paisley must trust her instincts to forge her own path if she is going to survive the dangers ahead.

American Drawings and Watercolors in the Metropolitan Museum of Art

By: Kevin J. Avery,Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, N.Y.)

The Metropolitan Museum began acquiring American drawings and watercolors in 1880, just ten years after its founding. Since then it has amassed more than 1,500 works executed by American artists during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in watercolor, pastel, chalk, ink, graphite, gouache, and charcoal. This volume documents the draftsmanship of more than 150 known artists before 1835 and that of about 60 unidentified artists of the period. It includes drawings and watercolors by such American masters as John Singleton Copley, John Trumbull, John Vanderlyn, Thomas Cole, Asher Brown Durand, George Inness, and James Abbott McNeill Whistler. Because the 504 works illustrate such a wide range of media, techniques, and styles, this publication is a veritable history of American drawing from the eighteenth through most of the nineteenth century."--Metropolitan Museum of Art website.

The Water Wonders Journey

An Adventure in Water Conservation

By: Avery Starling

The Water Wonders Journey: An Adventure in Water Conservation In the serene village of Green Meadows, young Luna is always curious about the world around her, particularly the wonders of water. Her fascination grows when she meets Dewy, a magical and cheerful water droplet who becomes her guide in an extraordinary adventure. Dewy introduces Luna to the amazing journey of water in nature, starting with the water cycle. Together, Luna and Dewy explore the high mountains where snow melts into streams, travel through rivers that nourish forests and fields, and see how water evaporates to form clouds. Dewy's explanations turn into engaging stories, helping Luna understand the vital role water plays in sustaining life on Earth. Along the way, she learns about the interconnectedness of nature and the importance of preserving water resources. Their journey takes a serious turn as they visit regions plagued by water scarcity. Luna sees the struggles of communities and animals in arid lands, where every drop of water is precious. She witnesses the effects of pollution and climate change on rivers and wetlands, understanding that these issues threaten the survival of many. These experiences ignite a deep passion in Luna to find solutions for water conservation. In Africa, Luna discovers innovative technologies that bring hope to water-scarce regions. She marvels at solar-powered wells that tap into underground water sources and rainwater harvesting systems that collect and purify rain. Dewy shows her fog nets that capture water from the air and advanced filtration systems that make river water drinkable. These technologies transform lives, providing clean water to communities that once struggled. Luna visits villages where these technologies have been successfully implemented. She sees solar panels powering water pumps and gardens flourishing with recycled water. The community efforts she observes demonstrate that water conservation requires collective action and innovation. Inspired by these examples, Luna returns to Green Meadows with a determination to make a difference. Back home, Luna shares her newfound knowledge with her friends and family. Together, they start implementing the technologies she learned about. They set up rainwater harvesting systems, establish community gardens, and plant trees to protect water sources. The village soon thrives, with a steady flow of clean water, lush gardens, and more time for children to attend school and play. Luna’s village becomes a model of sustainability, showing how even small actions can lead to significant changes. She learns that water is not just a resource but the foundation of life and community well-being. Dewy’s guidance helps her understand the importance of every drop and the impact of innovation and collaboration. "The Water Wonders Journey: An Adventure in Water Conservation" is a captivating tale of exploration, learning, and action. Through Luna’s eyes, readers discover the beauty and importance of water, the challenges of conserving it, and the incredible solutions that can turn scarcity into abundance. Luna’s journey inspires young readers to become water guardians in their own communities, fostering a legacy of sustainability and hope.

Local Density Approximations in Quantum Chemistry and Solid State Physics

By: Jens Peder Dahl,John Avery

The· simplest picture of an atom, a molecule or a solid is the picture of its distribution of charge. It is obtained by specifying the positions of the atomic nuclei and by showing how the density, p(E), of the electronic charge-cloud varies from place to place. A much more detailed picture is provided by the many-electron wavefunction. This quantity shows not only the arrangement of the electrons with respect to the nuclei, but also the arrangement of the electrons with respect to each other, and it allows the evaluation of the total energy and other properties. The many-electron wavefunction is in principle obtained by solving the many-electron Schrodinger equation for the motion of the interacting electrons under the influ ence of the nuclei, but in practice the equation is unsolvable, and it is necessary to proceed by methods of approximation. Needless to say, .such methods will as a rule depend on the complexity of the system considered.

John A Collected Essays 1

By: John S Avery

This book contains a collection of essays and articles by John Scales Avery discussing the severe problems and challenges which the world faces during the 21st century. Human civilization and the biosphere are threatened by catastrophic climate change. Unless rapid steps are taken to replace fossil fuels by 100% renewable energy, we risk passing a tipping point beyond which uncontrollable feedback loops could produce a 6th extinction event comparable to those observed in the geological record. Another serious threat to human civilization and the biosphere is the danger of a catastrophic thermonuclear war. Over a long period of time there is an ever-increasing risk that such a war will occur by accident or miscalculation. Thirdly, there is threat of an extremely serious and widespread famine, produced by the climate change, rapidly-growing populations, and the end of the fossil fuel era. We must urgently address all three challenges.
