Big Brains and the Human Superorganism

Big Brains and the Human Superorganism

Why Special Brains Appear in Hominids and Other Social Animals

By: Niccolo Leo Caldararo

This book examines why humans have big brains, what big brains enable us to do, and how specialized brains are associated with eusociality in animals. It explores why brains expanded so slowly, and then why they stopped growing. This book whittles down the theories on brain size evolution to a few that represent testable hypotheses to identify logical and practical explanations for the phenomenon. At the core of this book is data derived from original, previously unpublished research on brain size in a number of social mammals. This data supports the idea that evolution of the brain in humans is the result of social interaction. This book also traces the products of the social brain: ideology, religion, urban life, housing, and learning and adapting to dense complex social interactions. It uniquely compares brain evolution in social animals across the animal kingdom, and examines the nature of the human brain and its evolution within the social and historical context of complex human social structures.

The Marine Corps and the State Department

Enduring Partners in United States Foreign Policy, 1798-2007

By: Leo J. Daugherty III

This work is a complete history of the partnership between the Department of State and the United States Marine Corps. From its formation in 1775, the Corps developed a close working relationship with the diplomatic service of the Continental Congress and later, in 1798, with the newly created United States Department of State. The Marines accompanied U.S. diplomats to France in 1778 and worked closely with the State Department during the Barbary Wars and the opening of China. In 1905, an executive order by Theodore Roosevelt established a Marine Legation Guard, and the Corps played an increasingly important role in embassies across the globe. Today, the war on terrorism highlights this important relationship as Marines guard some of the most dangerous embassies in the world.

Systematic Theology, Volume 2, Second Edition

Biblical, Historical, and Evangelical

By: James Leo Garrett Jr.

Rivals the major systematic theologies of this century." --Baptist History and Heritage Journal, July 1996 "One of the characteristics of Garrett's system that needs especially to be noted is its balanced, judicious, and nearly invariably objective presentation of materials. While holding true to the teachings of his own Baptist faith, Garrett so carefully and judiciously presents alternatives . . . that teachers and students from other confessional and denominational positions will find his work instructive." --Consensus, 1997 "If one is searching for an extensive exposition of the biblical foundations and historical developments of the various loci of systematic theology, there is no more complete presentation in a relatively short work than this . . . Pastors will especially find this feature to be a real help in teaching theology . . . [It is] an indispensable contribution to the task of systematic theology." --Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society, September 1999 "Many students and pastors will find all they need here, and will in addition be helped to relate their knowledge to recent developments in the theological world." --The Churchman: A Journal of Anglican Theology, 1991 "A gold mine of helpful material." --The Christian Century, May 29-June 5, 1991 "No book that I know is more loaded with biblical and theological facts than this one. The prodigious research that must have gone into the preparation of this volume is truly mind-boggling." --Faith and Mission, Fall 1991 "Garrett has provided a massive and scholarly systematic theology from a thoroughly conservative and comprehensive viewpoint. The work is well documented in both biblical and historical scholarship and will prove to be a classic." --William Hendrickson, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary "One of the most comprehensive, concise books of its type available; it should receive wide use in the classroom and in the study." --Robert H. Culpepper, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

Jews in Early Mississippi

By: Leo Turitz,Evelyn Turitz

Who were the Jews who came to Mississippi in the early years of statehood? Why did they come? What endowment did they leave as they contributed to the enrichment of Mississippi life? Answers to these and many other questions are given in this collection of vintage photographs and commentaries compiled and written by Rabbi and Mrs. Turitz. Their collection of more than 400 photographs depicting the history of Mississippi Jewry between the 1840s and 1900 is organized geographically, beginning in southwest Mississippi. Here Jewish influence was perhaps strongest in early times. From these communities Jews followed trade routes upriver through Natchez, Vicksburg, and the Delta, and throughout the state. These Jews left a heritage of major business concerns, including nationally known hotels and department stores. Their interest in religion, education, and the arts enriched towns and communities with schools, temples, and opera houses. In the Turitzes' account of Mississippi Jewry there are individual stories about remarkable Jewish families. The lasting influence of these men and women remains indelibly in the towns where they lived and worked.

Baptist Theology

A Four-century Study

By: James Leo Garrett

This title offers a comprehensive analysis of Baptist theology. Embracing in one common trajectory the major Baptist confessions of faith, the major Baptist theologians, and the principal Baptist theological movements and controversies, this book spans four centuries of Baptist doctrinal history. Acknowledging first the pre-1609 roots (patristic, medieval, and Reformational) of Baptist theology, it examines the Arminian versus Calvinist issues that were first expressed by the General Baptists and the Particular Baptists; that dominated English and American Baptist theology during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries from Helwys and Smyth and from Bunyan and Kiffin to Gill, Fuller, Backus, and Boyce; and, that were quickened by the 'awakenings' and the missionary movement. Concurrently there were the Baptist defense of the Baptist distinctives vis-a-vis the pedobaptist world and the unfolding of a strong Baptist confessional tradition. Then during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries the liberal versus evangelical issues became dominant with Hovey, Strong, Rauschenbusch, and Henry in the North and Mullins, Conner, Hobbs, and Criswell in the South even as a distinctive Baptist Landmarkism developed, the discipline of biblical theology was practiced and a structured ecumenism was pursued. Missiology both impacted Baptist theology and took it to all the continents, where it became increasingly indigenous. Conscious that Baptists belong to the free churches and to the believers' churches, a new generation of Baptist theologians at the advent of the twenty-first century appears somewhat more Calvinist than Arminian and decidedly more evangelical than liberal.

By the Gift and Power of God

The Last Dispensation

By: Leo Kappa

Although Christian academics such as Dr. Stephen Webb, Margaret Barker, and Richard Mouw classify the Latter-Day Saints as Christian, most ordinary, believing Christians remain unaware of just how very Christ-centered the LDS Church is and what a strong position the church holds scripturally and theologically. Many Christians today have never had the opportunity to consider the numerous Bible prophecies fulfilled by the Book of Mormon, the prophet Joseph Smith, the historic Christian apostasy, and the prophecies of Gods great and marvelous latter-day work, which is a new dispensation to set things rightnamely the restoration we announce to the world. Christians everywhere must be informed about what God has done for them in these times and why it was necessary as we all prepare for the glorious return of our Lord Jesus with a vast host of angels to judge the earth.

Modern life isn't easy and it never has been.

Roy Rogers' golden palomino, Trigger, was the perhaps the most famous horse in film--more popular than the man himself among certain fans. In its expanded second edition, this detailed look at the animals and men who created the legend of "the smartest horse in the movies" examines the life story of the original Trigger--and his doubles, particularly Little Trigger, the extraordinary trick horse. Movies in which Trigger appeared without Rogers are discussed. More than 200 photographs (90 new to this edition) and 30,000 words of additional material are included, covering unresolved aspects of Trigger's story, controversies surrounding the sale of the Roy Roger's Museum collection and the fate of his legacy.

God and Government in the Ghetto

The Politics of Church-State Collaboration in Black America

By: Michael Leo Owens

In recent years, as government agencies have encouraged faith-based organizations to help ensure social welfare, many black churches have received grants to provide services to their neighborhoods’ poorest residents. This collaboration, activist churches explain, is a way of enacting their faith and helping their neighborhoods. But as Michael Leo Owens demonstrates in God and Government in the Ghetto, this alliance also serves as a means for black clergy to reaffirm their political leadership and reposition moral authority in black civil society. Drawing on both survey data and fieldwork in New York City, Owens reveals that African American churches can use these newly forged connections with public agencies to influence policy and government responsiveness in a way that reaches beyond traditional electoral or protest politics. The churches and neighborhoods, Owens argues, can see a real benefit from that influence—but it may come at the expense of less involvement at the grassroots. Anyone with a stake in the changing strategies employed by churches as they fight for social justice will find God and Government in the Ghetto compelling reading.

George Clinton

An American Founding Father and American Independence

By: Leo V. Kanawada Jr.

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

George Clinton

An American Founding Father and American Independence

By: Leo V. Kanawada Jr.

In this enlightening snapshot of the early political life of George Clinton who unfortunately is overlooked by many colonial historians as one of America’s Founding Fathers, Leo Kanawada provides an enthralling case study based on trustworthy historical evidence and credible research of this prominent New York leader and his decision concerning American independence. Most New Yorkers even most New York patriot leaders emphatically oppose independence as late as July of 1776. Even Clinton himself hedges and vacillates on the question of independence. This much is certain: Clinton does not openly advocate independence, either in the Continental Congress or in New York, prior to the Declaration of Independence; he has no systematic “democratic” program worked out for his colony; and even prior to his election as governor of New York, he advocates no revolutionary changes for New York. To say that Clinton is a radical and that his decision regarding independence springs from an impulse for democratic reform in New York, is misleading. Rather, the key to understanding the emergence of Clinton rests primarily with Clinton’s popularity as a military commander. In the years ahead, Clinton becomes the longest serving governor (21 years) in our nation’s history. As an antifederalist and as vice president of the United States for eight years under Jefferson and Madison, he is recognized nationally when he openly challenges Hamilton and his Federalist papers with his own “Cato” letters. In them, as governor, he advocates forcefully for states’ rights, a Bill of Rights, a limited central government, and for programs to alleviate the growing economic hardships facing the country’s poor. All this while cautioning the nation about the glaring dangers in the rise of a powerful, political aristocratic class and the pitfalls of a strong presidency under the recently adopted United States Constitution.

The Unknown English Torah Commentator: Marcus M. Kalisch Genesis 1-22

By: Michael Leo Samuel

Rabbi Michael Leo Samuel has once again made a significant contribution to Jewish scholarship entitled “The Unknown English Torah Commentator: Marcus M. Kalisch on Genesis 1-22.” This work promises to be a new trailblazing series introducing readers to the thinking and teachings of Marcus Kalisch (1828-1885). Kalisch integrated the best of Judaic scholarship with the ideas of philosophy, anthropology, comparative literature, linguistics, and classical literature is unique. People of all faith and religious traditions will enjoy reading about Kalisch’s novel interpretations of the Bible’s most beloved tales. Kalisch always sought to make the ethical lessons of the Pentateuch meaningful for the average reader, rabbi, or scholar. The graphical illustrations add an artistic flare to the commentary, captivating the writer’s heart and imagination. ~Rabbi Dr. Israel Drazin, Onkelos on the Torah: Understanding the Biblical Text Marcus Kalisch wrote one of the first extensive commentaries on the Torah to have been written in English. Kalisch ranks as one of the most extraordinary exegetes who ever lived. His expansive command of rabbinical, theological, linguistic, classical, and historical sources was nothing less than kaleidoscopic. Despite having composed his outstanding work over 175 years ago, his thoughts and inspirational content can deeply enrich any biblical student, scholar, or teacher. Kalisch possessed a complete mastery of ancient Jewish texts and could cite the writings of Euripides as easily as he could quote the Talmud. Rabbi Michael Leo Samuel has done a stellar job distilling the best of Kalisch’s sophisticated thought. Kalisch’s ideas deserve to be disseminated to our era and beyond. ~Rabbi Dr. Bernhard Rosenberg, Echoes of the Holocaust: Survivors and Their Children and Grandchildren Speak Out Rabbi Michael Leo Samuel is the son of a Holocaust survivor. He holds two rabbinic ordinations from the Tomchei Temimim Lubavitch Yeshiva of 770 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn and holds a D. Min. degree from the San Francisco Theological Seminary. He is an avid student of the Greek classics, Biblical and Talmudic scholarship, Jungian Psychology, Western Medieval Theology, Modern Philosophy, and 20th century psychology. He is the author of The Lord Is My Shepherd: The Theology of the Caring God (1996), Birth and Rebirth Through Genesis (2010), A Shepherd’s Song: Psalm 23 and the Shepherd Metaphor In Jewish Thought (2014), Rediscovering Philo of Alexandria: A First Century Jewish Commentator (Volumes, 1-5), (2014-2018), Maimonides’ Hidden Torah Commentary (Volumes 1-5) and Gentle Judaic Wisdom for a Troubled World (2019).

Shorebirds

An Illustrated Behavioural Ecology

By: Jan van de Kam,Bruno Ens,Theunis Piersma,Leo Zwarts

Shorebirds are the most visible inhabitants of coastal wetlands worldwide. Many undertake spectacularly long flights between their wintering and breeding grounds, embodying the miracle of long-distance migration in a profound way. In this illustrated behavioural ecology the migration, feeding and breeding of these birds are explained in a comprehensive but simple and visually stunning form. The core of the book is based on studies of shorebirds and other waterbirds (such as ducks, geese and gulls) that migrate along the East Atlantic Flyway. The emphasis is on those using the Dutch, German and Danish Wadden Sea; examples from the rest of the world are also included. The authors are experts in the fields of bird migration, shorebird behaviour and intertidal ecology, and have contributed much to our current understanding of these subjects. The 300 magnificent portraits of waterbirds in action were taken by Jan van de Kam, one of The Netherlands' foremost wildlife photographers.

Corporate Criminal Investigations and Prosecutions

By: Leo R. Tsao,Daniel S. Kahn,Eugene Soltes

Buy a new version of this textbook and receive access to the Connected eBook on CasebookConnect, including: lifetime access to the online ebook with highlight, annotation, and search capabilities, plus an outline tool and other helpful resources. Connected eBooks provide what you need most to be successful in your law school classes. Corporate Criminal Investigations and Prosecutions provides readers a comprehensive understanding of the process behind the investigation, prosecution, and resolution of criminal charges against organizations. Over the past two decades, corporate criminal liability has developed into one of the fastest-growing and most dynamic areas of legal practice. The growth of corporate criminal enforcement has correlated with a broad shift in how the government investigates and resolves corporate criminal violations. As a result of these developments, the practice of investigating, prosecuting, and resolving corporate criminal cases has many significant differences from other areas of criminal or civil law. Notably, one of the most significant aspects that distinguishes corporate criminal practice is that much of it occurs outside of the formal judicial system; nearly all DOJ corporate criminal matters are resolved through negotiated settlements, and very few cases involve court proceedings or go to trial. As a result, many parts of this practice remain relatively unknown to students and practitioners. Until now.
