The Predicaments of Publicness

An Inquiry Into the Conceptual Ambiguity of Public Administration

By: Udo Pesch

As governmental goods and resources continue to undergo privatization, many wonder just what is “public” about public administration. The Predicaments of Publicness traces the development of this dilemma in modern political and social thought and then applies those theoretical findings to some of the most relevant practical issues in current public administration. Some organizations, Pesch asserts, remain outside of the public/private schism, and The Predicaments of Publicness will provide readers—both citizens and civil servants—with essential guideposts for negotiating these new arenas.

The First One Hundred Years of Christianity

An Introduction to Its History, Literature, and Development

By: Udo Schnelle

Beginning as a marginal group in Galilee, the movement initiated by Jesus of Nazareth became a world religion within 100 years. Why, among various religious movements, did Christianity succeed? This major work by internationally renowned scholar Udo Schnelle traces the historical, cultural, and theological influences and developments of the early years of the Christian movement. It shows how Christianity provided an intellectual framework, a literature, and socialization among converts that led to its enduring influence. Senior New Testament scholar James Thompson offers a clear, fluent English translation of the successful German edition.

The Spiritual Awakening

Entanglement in the Dimensions of Space-Time

By: Udo Oladipupo

This is an enchanted book about reality bounded by the spiritual realm, science, and science fiction. Science fiction because such sciences are simply processes we are yet to understand or instruments yet to be discovered or created. There are some sciences I believe even transcend human understanding. All these make up our world in different dimensions of reality. Understanding gravity in its strongest and weakest point is important in reading this book, or then again, you could just sit back and enjoy how entertaining this book is.

Plant-Plant Allelopathic Interactions II

Laboratory Bioassays for Water-Soluble Compounds with an Emphasis on Phenolic Acids

By: Udo Blum

This volume presents detailed descriptions and analyses of the underlying features, issues and suppositions associated with seed and seedling laboratory bioassays presented in a previous volume. It is, however, broader in scope and substance in that the information provided is relevant to all water-soluble compounds released to soil by putative allelopathic living plants and their litter and residues. It is ultimately an attempt to update and expand the practical guidelines for designing laboratory bioassays that have previously been provided in the literature with the hope that the designs of future seed and seedling laboratory bioassays will become more relevant to field systems. Standard references have been included to provide background and additional details. This volume has been written specifically for researchers and their graduate students who are interested in studying plant-plant allelopathic interactions.

Theology of the New Testament

By: Udo Schnelle

For a few decades, jet packs seemed to be everywhere: on Gilligan’s Island, Lost in Space, Thunderball, and even the opening ceremony of the 1984 Olympics. Inventors promised we’d all be flying with them now, enabling us to zoom around effortlessly in the sky and getting us to work without traffic jams and trains. What happened to the jet pack? In The Great American Jet Pack, Steve Lehto gives us the definitive history of this and related devices, explaining how the technology arose, how it works, and why we don’t have them in our garages today. These individual lift devices, as they were blandly labeled by the government men who financed much of their development, answered man’s desire to simply step outside and take flight. No runways, no wings, no pilot’s license were required. Soaring through the air with the wind in your face and landing anyplace there was room to stand—could this be done? Yes, it could be, and it was. But the jet pack was perhaps the most overpromised technology of all time. From the rocket belt to the jet belt to the flying platform and all the way to Yves Rossy’s 21st-century free flights using a jet-powered wing, this book profiles the inventors and pilots, the hucksters and cheats, the businessmen and soldiers who were involved with these machines. And it finally tells a great American story of a technology whose promise may, one day, yet come to fruition.

News as Changing Texts

Corpora, Methodologies and Analysis (Second Edition)

By: Udo Fries,Nicholas Brownlees,Roberto Facchinetti

The updated and revised edition of this volume maintains its focus on the dialectic interrelation between ‘news’ and ‘change’. News is intended as a textual type in its evolutionary – and revolutionary – development, while change is discussed with reference to the form, content and structure of news texts. The news texts in question range from the first forms of periodical news in the seventeenth century up to the news blogs and social media of the present day. Divided into four chapters, representing key historical moments in the process of news writing, each chapter makes use of a set of corpora specifically designed to suit the needs of scholars working in those particular fields. Topics that the authors examine include pronominal usage and the interrelationship between news writer and reader, heads and headlines, the language of advertisements and other text classes, the trend towards conversationalization, and impartiality and ‘perspective’ in modern-day news. These and other topics, coupled with the varying corpora that are exploited to analyse them, call into question basic methodological issues that are examined from different perspectives. Throughout the volume, the authors contextualise the news publications of the day so as to better understand the continuous process of adjustment and renewal that news texts are subject to over time.

At A Cross Road

Church Troubled: Consumerism & Simplicity

By: Venerable, Dr. Felix Udo Anyasor

At A Cross Road: Church Troubled: Consumerism & Simplicity By: Venerable, Dr. Felix Udo Anyasor There are some Ideological and structural vices of life, and when not given attention, may spread like cancer. Consumerism was known to be a societal and secular vice, in a sense, and also one of the engendering factors to corruption in the governmental and some business areas. But when consumerism finds its way into the church, where worshippers are supposedly spiritually edified, then the world itself is in trouble. "When the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?"(Psalm 11:3). Venerable, Dr. Felix Udo Anyasor provides an in-depth look into the church today, and the many terrible effects consumerism has on the individual members and church community as a whole. He provides guidance on how to overcome this proverbial tumor, to walk in love as Jesus; making sacrifices on the mortal plane to save souls now, and the afterlife.

This Is Bioethics

An Introduction

By: Ruth F. Chadwick,Udo Schuklenk

Should editing the human genome be allowed? What are the ethical implications of social restrictions during a pandemic? Is it ethical to use animals in clinical research? Is prioritizing COVID-19 treatment increasing deaths from other causes? Bioethics is a dynamic field of inquiry that draws on interdisciplinary expertise and methodology to address normative issues in healthcare, medicine, biomedical research, biotechnology, public health, and the environment. This Is Bioethics is an ideal introductory textbook for students new to the field, exploring the fundamental questions, concepts, and issues within this rapidly evolving area of study. Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, this accessible volume helps students consider both traditional and cutting-edge questions, develop informed and defensible answers, and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of a diverse range of ethical positions in medicine. The authors avoid complex technical terms and jargon in favor of an easy-to-follow, informal writing style with engaging chapters designed to stimulate student interest and encourage class discussion. The book also features a deep dive into the realm of global public health ethics, including the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It considers topics like triage decision-making, the proportionality of society's response to COVID-19, whether doctors have a professional obligation to treat COVID-19 patients, and whether vaccines for this virus should be mandatory. A timely addition to the acclaimed This Is Philosophy series, This Is Bioethics is the ideal primary textbook for undergraduate bioethics and practical ethics courses, and is a must-have reference for students in philosophy, biology, biochemistry, and medicine.

The Testimony of the Son of Man and the Beginning of His Millennial Reign on Earth

Volume Two by Dr. Solomon Udo Solomon (Captain of the Called Ones)

By: Dr. Solomon Udo Solomon

The Testimony of the Son of Man and the Beginning of His Millennial Reign on Earth Vol. II by Dr. Solomon Udo Solomon The theme of The Testimony of the Son of Man is the restoration of the everlasting Gospel of the Kingdom of God on Earth, as was brought down by Yeshua the Lamb of Yahweh, for the redemption of the entire humanity. The impetus to write this series of books came to the author by a dream of inspiration. In that dream, Dr. Solomon Udo Solomon was directed to preach only what Jesus taught the world. Dr. Solomon went through the Synoptic Gospels first, then the Epistles of the accredited witnesses, and finally the Book of Revelations. Dr. Solomon’s understanding was quickened. Finally, he decided to read the letters of Saul of Tarsus. He saw a whole world of contradictions from what Jesus, as the Son of Man, taught the world. Dr. Solomon then understood why the Lord laid emphasis on what He Himself taught the world, as well as the very essence of the mandate given to him. Dr. Solomon understood the need to inform the world of his revelations. This is in keeping with what Jesus Himself said: “And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached to all nations as a witness against them, and then shall the end come.” The Gospel of the Kingdom, which is the Gospel of ‘Lawfulness and Peace,’ is what Jesus Himself taught the world in His words, examples and customs. The present messages in churches and other organizations are composites of wheat and tares, because of their choice to flout the Lord’s order in the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 28, verse 20, under the purported inspiration of their false prophet. This work is in strict consistency with the mandate that was given to Dr. Solomon. The readers will know that there was a gross distortion of the Mission of Yeshua the Lamb of Yahweh to the world, especially His actual work of redemption. The cross of the murderers, which is being extolled, has no contribution to make for the redemption of mankind. This work is intended to free those who care to accept it from the sin of accomplice, which has constituted a plague to the whole world. The false information peddled by the false prophet, will eventually be discarded to pave way for the New World Order, which rests squarely on what the Lamb of Yahweh bequeathed to the world. This is the much-needed foundation for the Lord’s return to set His Millennial Government on Earth. This work shall awaken the consciousness in the elects to preach only what the Lord Himself taught the world, notwithstanding the temptation to believe and propagate the unscriptural letters of Saul of Tarsus.

Computer System and Network Security

By: Gregory B. White,Eric A. Fisch,Udo W. Pooch

Computer System and Network Security provides the reader with a basic understanding of the issues involved in the security of computer systems and networks. Introductory in nature, this important new book covers all aspects related to the growing field of computer security. Such complete coverage in a single text has previously been unavailable, and college professors and students, as well as professionals responsible for system security, will find this unique book a valuable source of information, either as a textbook or as a general reference. Computer System and Network Security discusses existing and potential threats to computer systems and networks and outlines the basic actions that are generally taken to protect them. The first two chapters of the text introduce the reader to the field of computer security, covering fundamental issues and objectives. The next several chapters describe security models, authentication issues, access control, intrusion detection, and damage control. Later chapters address network and database security and systems/networks connected to wide-area networks and internetworks. Other topics include firewalls, cryptography, malicious software, and security standards. The book includes case studies with information about incidents involving computer security, illustrating the problems and potential damage that can be caused when security fails. This unique reference/textbook covers all aspects of computer and network security, filling an obvious gap in the existing literature.

Culturing Bioscience

A Case Study in the Anthropology of Science

By: Udo Krautwurst

Charting the rise and fall of an experimental biomedical facility at a North American university, Culturing Bioscience offers a fascinating glimpse into scientific culture and the social and political context in which that culture operates. Krautwurst nests the discussion of scientific culture within a series of levels from the lab to the global political economy. In the process he explores a number of topics, including: the social impact of technology; researchers' relationships with sophisticated equipment; what scientists actually do in a laboratory; what role science plays in the contemporary university; and the way bioscience interacts with local, regional, and global governments. The result is a rich case study that illustrates a host of contemporary issues in the social study of science.

Convincing Rebel Fighters to Disarm

UN Information Operations in the Democratic Republic of Congo

By: Jacob Udo-Udo Jacob

One of the key mission objectives of the UN Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUC) was to disarm and repatriate foreign combatants in the eastern region of the country. To achieve this, MONUC adopted a „push and pull" strategy. This involved applying military pressure while at the same time offering opportunities for voluntary disarmament and repatriation for armed combatants of the elusive but deadly Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) – a predominantly Rwandan Hutu armed group in eastern DRC. As part of its "pull" strategy, MONUC embarked on one of the most sophisticated Information Operations (IO) campaigns in UN history with the core objective of convincing thousands of individual combatants and commanders of the FDLR to voluntarily disarm and join the UN’s Demobilization, Disarmament, Repatriation, Resettlement and Reintegration programme (DDRRR). This book is derived from studies of the narratives, coordination and effectiveness of the UN’s IO in support of DDRRR and how the UN has integrated IO as part of its Mission peace support operations. This book advances contemporary understanding of the relative importance of communication models and their interactions within conflict settings. It provides instruments with which conflict and communication analysts can compare predictions and rationalize Information impacts for future conflicts. About the author Dr. Jacob Udo-Udo Jacob teaches Communications & Media Studies at the American University of Nigeria. He earned his PhD in Communication Studies from the University of Leeds, United Kingdom

Complexity Metrics in Engineering Design

Managing the Structure of Design Processes

By: Matthias Kreimeyer,Udo Lindemann

This book presents the results of several years’ research work on how to characterize complexity in engineering design with a specific regard to dependency modeling. The 52 complexity metrics that are presented show different facets of how complexity takes shape in design processes. The metrics are supported by a modeling method and a measurement framework to employ the metrics in a goal-oriented manner. The detailed description of all involved metrics and models makes it possible to apply the analysis approach to common process modeling methodologies. Three case studies from automotive process management illustrate the application to facilitate the transfer to other cases in an industrial context. The comprehensive appendix supplies additional details and checklists for structural analysis to generate a complete overview of current means of structural analysis.

Distributed Simulation

By: John A. Hamilton,David A. Nash,Udo W. Pooch

Simulation is a multi-disciplinary field, and significant simulation research is dispersed across multiple fields of study. Distributed computer systems, software design methods, and new simulation techniques offer synergistic multipliers when joined together in a distributed simulation. Systems of most interest to the simulation practitioner are often the most difficult to model and implement. Distributed Simulation brings together the many complex technologies for distributed simulation. There is strong emphasis on emerging simulation methodologies, including object-oriented, multilevel, and multi-resolution simulation. Finally, one concise text provides a strong foundation for the development of high fidelity simulations in heterogeneous distributed computing environments!

PEDOT

Principles and Applications of an Intrinsically Conductive Polymer

By: Andreas Elschner,Stephan Kirchmeyer,Wilfried Lovenich,Udo Merker,Knud Reuter

While there is information available in handbooks on polythiophene chemistry and physics, until now, few if any books have focused exclusively on the most forwardly developed electrically conductive polymer, Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-otherwise known as PEDOT. This resource provides full chemical, physical, and technical information about this important conducting polymer, discussing basic knowledge and exploring its technical applications. Presented information is based on information generated at universities and through academic research, as well as by industrial scientists, providing a complete picture of the experimental and the practical aspects of this important polymer.

A Transdisciplinary Introduction to the World of Cybernetics

Basics, Models, Theories and Practical Examples

By: E. W. Udo Küppers

This introduction to the world of cybernetics provides the basics and discusses the most important thought leaders, models as well as theories. Practical examples from the fields of biology, ecology, technology, society, and politics are used to illustrate the theoretical material. Questions at the end of the chapters stimulate reflection, and the author does not owe the answers. A central theme in all cybernetic considerations and a guiding theme of the book are information exchange and communication.

The Iron Oxides

Structure, Properties, Reactions, Occurrences and Uses

By: Rochelle M. Cornell,Udo Schwertmann

This book brings together in one, compact volume all aspects of the available information about the iron oxides. It presents a coherent, up to date account of the properties, reactions and mechanisms of formation of these compounds. In addition, there are chapters dealing with iron oxides in rocks and soils, as biominerals and as corrosion products together with methods of synthesis and the numerous application of these compounds. Their role in the environment is also discussed. The authors are experts in the field of iron oxides and have worked on all the topics covered. Much recent data from the authors' own laboratories is included and opportunities for further research are indicated. Special features are the electron micrographs and colour plates together with the many different spectra used to illustrate properties and aspects of behaviour. Numerous tables and graphs enable trends and relationships to be seen at a glance. The book concludes with an extensive bibliography. This book should prove invaluable to industry and to all researchers who, whatever their background and level of experience, are interested in this rapidly expanding field. It is an essential volume for any scientific library and is now in its second, completely revised and extended edition!
