Old Stories & Forgotten Lessons

The Bible Storybook for Adults (Volume I)

By: Dr. R.W. Stallings

The message the world hears from the church in America is confusing. Many of us have drifted so far from biblical teaching that those seeking our help cannot find it in the church. The picture of God we present is so removed from biblical truth that even our own children are without foundation and are leaving in great numbers. I do not believe the non–churched world has rejected biblical truth, but rather have never heard the compelling, unfiltered gospel truth preached with love. When we discard the biblical text and do not teach it to our people we give away the power to truly help those needing the church. The church must make Her own peace with God before the world can hear the voice of God from the church. Old Stories & Forgotten Lessons is a storybook written for adults from the book of Genesis, covering the first of the four historical divisions in the Old Testament. Each story is set in time and place and is complete in itself and each contains lessons for living as God’s people in a secular world. For a quick review, look at the Content pages in the front of the book, each story is highlighted and lessons are given.

The Life and Times of A D Blumlein

By: R. W. Burns

Despite his accidental death in June 1942 at the age of 38, Alan Dower Blumlein was unquestionably one of the century s most creative engineers and filed some 140 patents. He was the driving force and inspiration behind a vast number of fundamental innovations in the fields of radar, electronics and sound recording, amongst which he held perhaps the landmark patent enabling stereo sound. Surprisingly, until 1999 there had been no biographies of this remarkable man. The IEE is proud to rectify this by publication of this scholarly treatment of Blumlein's life, which includes a foreword by his eldest son.

Saving the Neighborhood

Saving the Neighborhood

Racially Restrictive Covenants, Law, and Social Norms

By: Richard R. W. Brooks,Carol M. Rose

Saving the Neighborhood tells the charged, still controversial story of the rise and fall of racially restrictive covenants in America, and offers rare insight into the ways legal and social norms reinforce one another, acting with pernicious efficacy to codify and perpetuate intolerance. The early 1900s saw an unprecedented migration of African Americans leaving the rural South in search of better work and equal citizenship. In reaction, many white communities instituted property agreements—covenants—designed to limit ownership and residency according to race. Restrictive covenants quickly became a powerful legal guarantor of segregation, their authority facing serious challenge only in 1948, when the Supreme Court declared them legally unenforceable in Shelley v. Kraemer. Although the ruling was a shock to courts that had upheld covenants for decades, it failed to end their influence. In this incisive study, Richard Brooks and Carol Rose unpack why. At root, covenants were social signals. Their greatest use lay in reassuring the white residents that they shared the same goal, while sending a warning to would-be minority entrants: keep out. The authors uncover how loosely knit urban and suburban communities, fearing ethnic mixing or even “tipping,” were fair game to a new class of entrepreneurs who catered to their fears while exacerbating the message encoded in covenants: that black residents threatened white property values. Legal racial covenants expressed and bestowed an aura of legitimacy upon the wish of many white neighborhoods to exclude minorities. Sadly for American race relations, their legacy still lingers.

Hot to Trot

An Agatha Raisin Mystery

By: M. C. Beaton,R.W. Green

Beloved New York Times bestseller M. C. Beaton's cranky, crafty Agatha Raisin—now the star of a hit T.V. show—is back on the case again in Hot to Trot. When Private Detective Agatha Raisin learns that her friend and one-time lover Charles Fraith is to be married to a mysterious socialite, Miss Mary Brown-Field, she sees it as her duty to find out what she can about the woman. Coming up empty, Agatha—out of selfless concern for Charles, of course—does the only sensible thing she can think of: she crashes their wedding, which ends in a public altercation. Nursing a hangover the next morning, she gets a phone call from Charles, with even more disturbing news: Mary has been murdered. Agatha takes on the case, and quickly becomes entrenched in the competitive equestrian world, in which Mary had been enmeshed—as well as the victim’s surprisingly violent past. Agatha finds no shortage of motives among a wide range of characters, from Mary's old riding competitors, to enemies from her schoolgirl days, to her surly father, who threatens Agatha to mind her own business. Meanwhile, the police department has its money on another suspect: Agatha. Will she track down the criminal in time, or end up behind bars herself?

Modern Japan

By: Louis G. Perez,R. W. Purdy

Organized by theme, this comprehensive encyclopedia examines all aspects of life in Japan, from geography and government to food and etiquette and much more. Japan, or the "Land of the Rising Sun," is home to more than 126 million people, nearly 10 million of whom live in Tokyo alone. How did this tiny island nation become such a powerhouse in the 21st century, and where will it go from here? Modern Japan examines history and contemporary life through thematic entries organized into chapters covering such topics as geography; history; government and politics; economy; religion and thought; social classes and ethnicity; gender, marriage, and sexuality; education; language; etiquette; literature and drama; art and architecture; music and dance; food; leisure and sports; and media and popular culture. Each chapter contains an overview of the topic and alphabetized entries on examples of each theme. A chronology covers from prehistoric times to the present, and special appendices offer profiles of a typical day in the life of representative members of Japanese society, key facts and figures about Japan, and a holiday chart. This volume is ideal for students researching Japan, as well as general readers interested in learning more about the country.

Confronting Reality

An Introduction to Television Documentary

By: R. W. Kilborn,John Izod

This lively introduction to television documentaries spotlights their history, production and reception, principal forms and functions and their adaptation to today’s programming needs. What impact has television's growing commercialisation had on the type of documentary broadcast? What has led to the introduction of an increasing number of hybridised forms? These questions are addressed within an examination of the role of institutions, documentary’s 'special relationship' with the real, and an insight into how audiences interpret the documentaries they view. Confronting reality has been written with the requirements of media studies students in mind, yet it is a must for everyone concerned with recording reality in the fast-changing world of television today.

The Baghdad Express

By: R. W. Greenacre

It is 2003 and two private security companies, Redline in the UK and Eagle in the US are preparing to go to Iraq. Redline’s leader Westerby is dreaming of a world where the sun never sets on the Empire and has bought himself a pith helmet and a monocle. Eagle’s boss, Flint, wants to make up for not going to Vietnam, while his second in command TJ is dreaming of a new boat. Westerby’s reluctant recruit, Carlingford, wants to escape his dead end job and sense of failure and find some meaning in his life.Once in Iraq our characters meet in a compound in a Baghdad suburb to build a theme park. Carlingford finds love amongst the dust and the madness but his loyalties are divided when Larry McKinley, the bombastic, six shooter toting U.S television reporter he is protecting is kidnapped. McKinley came to straighten out the ‘liberal media’s lies’ about Iraq but instead finds himself chained up in the cellar of librarian-turned-unlikely-insurgent Samir.As Iraq descends into chaos, an unsafe second-hand roller coaster, to be renamed the Baghdad Express, is rising from the ashes, but not everyone is fooled by this low culture masquerading as freedom and progress. When Carlingford finally rides the Baghdad Express he can see from its summit the truth about the war; the violence, incompetence, greed and deceit. The only thing keeping him in Iraq now is his love for CPA spin doctor Suria, but even his love is dying before the truth of what they have done to a country.The Baghdad Express is in turns bawdy, satirical, farcical and downright funny but ultimately, like the war itself, a story of tragedy and waste. Come ride The Baghdad Express – what will you see?

The Life of Nelson Mandela

By: R.W. Green

A wonderful, fully-illustrated celebration of the life of one of the most inspiring and respected leaders of our time. This book pays tribute to the life of Nelson Mandela with a unique collection of photographs from throughout his life. Mandela has become a household name, respected by everyone everywhere, from grandmothers to schoolchildren. Not so many people would recognize his other names, and he is a man who has been known by many names throughout his life. Nelson Rolihlahla Dalibhunga Mandela came from what most people would regard as a poor background, yet his family were aristocrats among the Xhosa people of the Transkei in South Africa. From the time he was a boy he was destined, as his father before him had been, to become an advisor at the court of the Xhosa king, but no one could have predicted that young Rolihlahla would one day become an outlaw known as "The Black Pimpernel" or a statesman of international standing—President Mandela.

Life, Love and Afterlife

By: R. W. Bostwick

From a very young age, I knew there was something more out there in the universe than just us. I could hear or see things that most people could not; something was guiding me through this life journey. I sought to find the answers to the questions that puzzled my mind (Why do we die? What is death? Where do we go?) and then with my own NDE (near-death experience), past life regression, and witness to a soul entering the human body, and the pieces to the puzzle started to fall into place. The understanding came through loving, losing the physical presence of the human body, and learning how to communicate with the other sidebeyond the veil and spirit world. For all of those who believe in life after death and for those who do not believe in life after death, there is a new awakening upon us. Lets open our eyes to all the possibilities our lives have to offer. We are never alone. And so it is.

Surpassing the Crucible

A Story of Inspiring Leadership and Teamwork

By: R.W. Riley

The fight over the “one army concept” is at its peak. Some in the active army believed the concept would never work. Weekend warriors couldn’t be reliable enough to be integrated into the army’s demanding worldwide missions. In 1989, the National Guard’s Second Battalion 220th Infantry needed to perform well at the prestigious Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC) at Fort Chaffee, Arkansas. The men and officers of the Second Battalion were going to be tested by the army’s best-trained professional opposing force at the infantry’s ultimate proving ground. They had to perform well. Everyone was watching. But this wasn’t your average National Guard unit. Their consistent superior performance during the last several years prompted the National Guard leadership to select them to represent the Guard on this national stage. There are countless distinct challenges for National Guard units that active duty units don’t face. This story describes how the battalion’s exceptional leadership is able to overcome these challenges to turn their unique situation into an advantage. Can the battalion prove to everyone that the “one army concept” works? If so, then what’s next?

History of Protective Tariff Laws

This book, first published in 1888 and reprinted in 1974, offers a history of US protective tariffs and their consequences for that country’s international trade, particularly with Great Britain. Its aim was to present to the reader the arguments for and against the opposing principles of protection and free trade, and in this it is successful – the book is a comprehensive analysis of the issue, seen from a time when the debate was perhaps at its most intense.
