Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Fiction and nonfiction books and movies speculate about end-of-the-world scenarios, proposing a rogue's gallery of corrupt leaders and a host of chilling, apocalyptic theories. Disillusioned by the crippled state of our Church and our world, people are increasingly placing faith in prophecies that claim to know details and dates about upcoming chastisements. Will the "final confrontation" include unprecedented bloodshed or the subtle trickery of seduction (or both)? Have the current intellectual, political, and sexual "liberation" movements - including within the Church - created the platform required for the Antichrist to emerge? In an age of diabolical disorientation, this captivating book provides much-needed clarity on relevant biblical prophecies - from Old Testament times to St. Paul and Revelation - and writings of early Church Fathers and Doctors of the Church, including Sts. Augustine, Gregory the Great, Jerome, and Thomas Aquinas. This prescient book will enlighten you on whether there is more than one Antichrist, the types of leaders and societies that Cardinal Newman believed would be forerunners of the Antichrist, and how long the Antichrist will reign. You will also explore the Church's teaching on millenarianism and the prospect that the reign of the Antichrist is drawing closer. A valuable and timely resource, this book will aid you in understanding views on the Antichrist through history and how they are linked to predictions about the end of the world, the Second Coming of Christ, the role of false prophets, and the devices the evil one uses to cultivate apostasy. You will also discover: What the persecution of the Antichrist will entail and events foretelling his coming, How to avoid being deceived by the Antichrist, The significance of sacrilege, idolatry, and the "abomination of desolation", The consequences of attacks on the Holy Eucharist, the Sacred Liturgy, and the Blessed Mother, The correlation (if any) between Rome and the Antichrist, How contemporary heresies, occultism, and immorality plant the seeds for evil Book jacket.…

Over the course of 200+ pages you'll learn how to set up a new project properly, how web APIs work under the hood, and advanced testing and deployment techniques. Three separate projects are built from scratch with progressively more advanced features including a Library API, Todo API, and Blog API.

Django for APIs is a best-practices guide to building powerful Python-based web APIs with a minimal amount of code.Reviews"When readers interested in web development ask me what to read next after Python Crash Course, I refer them to Will's books: Django for Beginners, Django for APIs, and Django for Professionals. I highly recommend you check out his work."-ERIC MATTHES, author of Python Crash Course"If you're looking for a guide into the world of Django, then the three-step of Django for Beginners, Django for APIs, and Django for Professionals is ideal: get up and running, get into APIs, which are a cornerstone of modern app development, and then add the bits you need to your fledging app into production, from databases and static files, to user accounts and security. It's a long road. Will's books are an awesome companion."-CARLTON GIBSON, Django Fellow and Django REST Framework core contributor"A fantastic resource for web development with Django and Python. I highly recommended them"-JEFF TRIPLETT, Python Software Foundation Director, DEFNA President, and REVSYS Partner "Django for Beginners is my go-to recommendation whenever anyone asks how to learn Django. It starts with a friendly and patient approach but manages to cover all the core fundamentals, dives into deployment, and has extensive coverage of testing. If you are looking for one book to master Django, this is it!"-ANNA MAKARUDZE, former President of the Django Software Foundation "A fantastic on-ramp to this brilliant web framework. Django for Beginners doesn't just talk about building sites with Django, it walks you through five of them. Get in the reps!"-ADAM JOHNSON, Django Project Steering Council member and author of two intermediate Django books "Choosing a book for your Django learning journey is a big commitment of your time and energy. That's why it matters who the author is and the intended audience. I've known Will for many years and he's deeply embedded in the Django community. He is a former Board Member of the Django Software Foundation and cohost of the 5-years running DjangoChat podcast. This means he's thought a lot about how people learn and use Django. That goes way beyond just reading the docs and doing a tutorial." -MICHAEL KENNEDY, host of Talk Python and Python Bytes podcasts, founder of Talk Python Training.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. We are living in an era whose atmosphere is saturated with the flames of hatred. It is an age of violence whose tempo of disruption is so rapidly escalating that there is scarcely a city anywhere in the world where humans can be assured of normal, physical security."So wrote visionary bestselling author Fr. Vincent Miceli, S.J., whose classic book Roots of Violence breaks open the philosophical roots of violence from a Christian perspective. What is the taproot that is causing the metastasizing delirium for violence we're seeing today? It is the attack against God. It is hatred of truth.The refusal to serve God was the rallying cry Satan used to incite violence and rebellion among the angels as they stood trial in the vestibule of Heaven. Miceli explains that Christ Himself testified that this "father of lies was a murderer from the beginning," thus making the connection between hatred of truth and lust for violence. Christ warned the Pharisees that men who reject God's plan for their salvation are destined to imitate Satan's deeds.In these gripping pages, Fr. Miceli reveals: How we are living in the Age of the Persistent LieThe fundamental aspect of violence that must be identified to conquer its plagueThe greatest lie of all -- and how you can refute itFive elements that constitute the nature of violence per St. Thomas AquinasWhat is really behind the metaphysics of murder (Can you guess?)Two ways modern violence is different from historical violenceThe connection between avarice, which causes other vices, and violenceTwo crimes that warrant God's vengeance against individuals and groupsFr. Miceli further lays out for you how Nietzsche was the prophet who foresaw and foretold the coming of the beast of violence. Indeed, he heralded its greatest commandment, whose faithful practice would create a society of savages. "The time has come," he wrote, "to oppose morality with immorality, to call what priests call good, evil, and what they call evil, good. The time has come for the transvaluation of all values."Drawing from shocking examples of violence from biblical to recent times, Fr. Miceli describes the significance of these events in light of truth and reason and explains how Christians should respond. You will find the seven conditions for a just war, the difference between violence and terrorism, an appendix with excerpts from St. John Paul II's writings on violence, and more.…
