Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Dr. Kuhn has written a book about her life and travels as a foreign language teacher. In essence, it is a book of memories, autobiographical in nature. She describes many of the 45 trips in detail, but she also groups many of the trips togeher. In 1973 when she began taking students to Europe, she had a good background of working with students and knowing how they think and act. (or so she thought) There is an interesting list of things to take, where to put the items, where they can be bought and the prices of the items. There is also a list of personal rules and regulations that were required of all students. They were called Mademoiselle's Rules or Mlle's Rules. Then there is a comprehensive list of Trip Procedures, giving all the do's and don't's of traveling. Students were allowed to 'sample' beer and alcohol as long as their parents had signed a permission slip, but students will always try to outthink the teacher and circumvent the procedures. Dr. Kuhn describes many of the things that went wrong on both student trips and adult trips, along with things that didn't seem funny at the time, but in retrospect seem humorous today.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In For the Love of Rome, John Ferris conveys his excitement in discovering the city of Rome through language that moves those unfamiliar with the enchanted city, as well as those who have often been there.

As Ferris said, 'The book is about our experiences in [mid-1960s and -1970s] Rome, what drew my wife and me there, and what we learned by seeing and reading.' The style is witty, amusing, and unfailingly interesting as he relates historical anecdotes and reveals Rome's impact on various major figures, including Charles Dickens, James Joyce, and many more.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Myths in the Bible grew out of the controversy over the Bible. Is every word the factual truth, just like God gave it to the men whom He inspired to write it Or is it a book of myths written by the hand of man to tell us what happened to them when they met God The answer hinges on the meaning of myth which is a special way of telling a story to show how God gets His point across to man. So myth is truth, but truth that is not dependent on facts to undergird it. Myths in the Bible tells the truth about God and man in the struggle of life. Myth is God's Hand reaching out to man. It is man trying to get a hold on God's Hand. It is God and man, hand in hand, facing life on this earth.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - It takes courage beyond belief to sneak out in the night to dig in the garbage for scraps to keep from starving when you know you would be killed if you were caught, or to crawl through ice and snow to freedom because the muscles in your legs atrophied from sitting in a hay mow for almost two years. To defect to the west, leaving all your family behind, not knowing when or if you'll ever see them again, or to endure the work, starvation diet, and beatings of concentration camp life also were courageous acts. However, these and other challenges were everyday living for millions such as those in this book. While those around them fell victim to WWII atrocities and did not survive, these people fought hard and won the right to live.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Design of Biological organisms (forms) are determined by design codes. They are made by invariant proteins. The codes control all regulative processes that are involved in development and differentiation. All structural and functional aspects of a developed organism, the patterns of its reproduction, behavior and the potentials need it for its adaptation are determined by its design code. Design codes cannot tolerate mutations, thus no biological organism can be transformed into another.Mutation of a design code protein can lead to initiation of Cancer. New biological organisms can emerge through reprogramming of an existing design code. Design Code Theory, I hope, encourage the protein-sequence analysts to compare the sequence, the secondary, and tertiary structures of invariant protein to help establish a primary list of design code proteins.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Mitral stenosis is due to thickening and immobility of the mitral valve leaflets, resulting in obstruction in blood flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Have we medicated our faith Have we replaced our faith in God with quick fixes When we are sick, do we reach for the medicine only Or do we also reach toward heaven to the One who made us There has been a consistent increase in the amount of medications Americans are consuming over the past decades, and the numbers continue to increase. If faith increased at the rate that the intake of prescription drugs increased, miracles would become the norm, and healing would be an everyday occurrence. When Jesus was on the earth, faith in His ability to heal, out measured medications. Now we have more medicines than we have faith. The scales have tipped over. Jesus proposed this question to the disciples. 'Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth ' It seems that the world's faith in God continues to diminish instead of growing. When the Lord returns to the earth, I pray that He will find faith in the earth. The Lord is not against His children seeking the help of physicians and medicines, but He also wants His children to seek His help and 'Don't medicate your faith!'.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In this book, Marthus-Adden Zimboiant has portrayed the characteristics of Satan (the old Serpent who deceives the nation) using the three of the world-known snakes, namely cobra, emerald bora, and anaconda as the main characters. Revelation 20:2 refers to the dragon as the serpent of old who is the devil and Satan. Created by God, but not equal to God, he defies God and despises truth and was given limited power. He Commands a hierarchy of demons and masquerades as 'an angel of light.' With this book, you will be able to overcome the deceptions of Satan. As a matter of fact, you will understand why Satan came to steal, kill and destroy, but he lost access to faithful, redeemed Christians. Truly, Satan rules the masses outside God's protection. He tries to hide the actual truth about our God, twists Scriptures to fit his purposes and offers counterfeit promises he can't fulfil. He always seeks an 'opportune time' to tempt us. However, Sir Marthus has perfectly revealed the craftiness of Satan, which will let you understand why Apostle Peter said: 'Be sober; be vigilant; because your adversary, the devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.' (1 Peter 5:8) and to which Apostle Paul also added 'Do not sin: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place [lest you give a foothold] to the devil.' (Ephesians 4:26-27) 'Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7).…
