Book Description

In Evolution: Fact, Fiction, or Fancy, Dr. Bernard J. Ficarra poses provocative questions that challenge the accepted theories of evolution.

When originally published in 1859, Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species was a landmark volume that defied the most deeply ingrained beliefs of the western world. It altered the way we view science and philosophy, and continues to be studied as an important historical document and theoretical text.

Now, another groundbreaking inquiry rekindles the classic debate that has never been resolved. This cogent exploration examines Darwin's work in the context of its time, questioning whether his derivative speculations on natural selection and biological origins were embraced more out of fashion than out of sound scientific methodology.

In his probing search to find evidence supporting his claims of the evolutionists, Dr. Bernard J. Ficarra has compiled a complex study that will once again stimulate controversy as it challenges the conventional thinking of our day.

Book Description

First published in 1971, this highly popular text is devoted to the interdisciplinary area of critical phenomena, with an emphasis on liquid-gas and ferromagnetic transitions. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students in thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, and solid state physics, as well as researchers in physics, mathematics, chemistry, and materials science, will welcome this paperback edition of Stanley's acclaimed text.

A classic of critical phenomena.......2000-04-12

"Introduction to phase transitions and critical phenomena" can be considered a classic in the subject, and, despite its first edition is now nearly thirty years old, and some of the results presented have been worked out in more detail along these years, I highly recommend it as an introduction to the subject. One fundamental advantage of the book that makes it different from newer teatrises like "The Theory of Critical Phenomena" by Binney et al (1992), is that it allows a

"softer" interface with "classical" thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, which is very convenient for beginners. Another important feature is the systematic "compromise" with the experiment, quite rare in theoretically-oriented books: it covers from the classic experiment of the critical point in the cyclohexane-aniline system, to the description of various spectrometers. Of course, "modern" topics in critical phenomena such as percolation are not examined and should be consulted in newer books. I might also criticize some lacks in the subject index; for example, the excellent survey of critical exponents in Binney's index is not matched in this book.

Book Description

This text gives a detailed account of various techniques that are used in the study of dynamics of continuous systems, near as well as far from equilibrium. The analytic methods covered include diagrammatic perturbation theory, various forms of the renormalization group and self-consistent mode coupling. Dynamic critical phenomena near a second order phase transition, phase ordering dynamics, dynamics of surface growth and turbulence form the backbone of the book.
Applications to a wide variety of systems (e.g. magnets, ordinary fluids, superfluids) are provided covering diverse transport properties (diffusion, sound).

Book Description

This book reviews some of the classic aspects in the theory of phase transitions and critical phenomena, which has a long history. Recently, these aspects are attracting much attention due to essential new contributions. The topics presented in this book include: mathematical theory of the Ising model; equilibrium and non-equilibrium criticality of one-dimensional quantum spin chains; influence of structural disorder on the critical behaviour of the Potts model; criticality, fractality and multifractality of linked polymers; field-theoretical approaches in the superconducting phase transitions.

The book is based on the review lectures that were given in Lviv (Ukraine) in March 2002 at the "Ising lectures" — a traditional annual workshop on phase transitions and critical phenomena which aims to bring together scientists working in the field of phase transitions with university students and those who are interested in the subject.

Book Description

The field of phase transitions and critical phenomena continues to be active in research, producing a steady stream of interesting and fruitful results. It has moved into a central place in condensed matter studies.
Statistical physics, and more specifically, the theory of transitions between states of matter, more or less defines what we know about 'everyday' matter and its transformations.
The major aim of this serial is to provide review articles that can serve as standard references for research workers in the field, and for graduate students and others wishing to obtain reliable information on important recent developments.

Good "books" of books.......2007-08-24

Although this "book" of enoch is important, the section divsions are important and IGNORED in this version.

The Lost Book O Enoch.......2007-08-09

I watched a show on the history channel called Banned from the bible and it gave me insite on different books that were not included in the bible. The book of enoch was one of them. After buying and reading the book it gave me a more understanding of bible prophecy.

GOOD BOOK.......2007-08-04

Hard to follow the first time I read it. Second time made alot more sense.

Well written, but questionable content.......2007-08-02

I feel the author did a good job in putting this manuscript together. The book starts out in genuine old testament style that smacks of authenticity. However, as the book goes on the style changes somewhat, seems to lose its solid beginnings and drifts off into the mystic. It is obviously a composite work that has been corrupted through the centuries by a barrage of gnostic and imaginative authors. No doubt there is some original text of Enoch in here, but weeding out the bunk is a difficult, if not impossible task.

Nevertheless, on the parts that do not contradict scripture, it offers information not readily found anywhere else, especially at its beginning. Ideas that were helpful to me included the origin of the nephilim, defining the "sons of God", and the identities of the fallen angels who commited this attempt to create a hybrid spawn and foil the prophecy of redemption and judgement through the seed of man.

I recommend that christians who read this work do so cautiously. The information in here is intriguing; no doubt some of it is credible, but the work has become corrupted through the ages and it is obvious that this is why it was not included in the divinely inspired biblical scripture.

2004 translation of the Ethiopian Version of Enoch's Prophesies.......2007-08-01

The translator of the Book of Enoch considers "2 Enoch" (the Slavonic version) as corrupted and inferior, therefore exclusively using "1 Enoch", the Ethiopian version. He uses plain, modern English, merging different previous translators, occasionally providing alternative vocabulary in brackets. The respective Western Bible sections are included which are referencing this obviously prior source. Some interpretation possibilities are provided, which are exactly that: possibilities.

The Book of Enoch is - among other subjects - about transgressions of angels and humans alike. Written in the Old Testament style, God/Jah appears to be vengeful and unforgiving on the surface. However, mystics will be able to see that differently. For example, there are hints about the sin of separation and that the flooded animals/humans/angels aren't destroyed, but now assembled/returned with good mind again to a joyful Jah/God. Those who blind separations experience death/perishable years of existence.

Accordingly, violence, hunger for power and greed gets condemmed. Which is a central theme in the rest of the Bible/the Western Bible, but got misinterpreted a lot in order to downpress and exploit at least three minorities, i.e. doing exactly the opposite from that which had been written. In that line the Book of Enoch clarifies that a petition on behalf of the ones condemmed is not given, even if they speak all the words from God's writings.

Interesting for RastafarI the condemnation of kings in this Ethiopian Bible canon, as Haile Selassie-I (King of Kings), abolished himself as a literal king as a concept of human society. Also the lengthy section of the sheep and wolves methaphor will be of special interest to RastafarI.

No less intriguing the search for knowledge in contrast to idol worship (the latter of which is interpretable also as beliefs of separations, veneration of gold, power etc). As an example, the Book of Enoch is against astrology, but elaborates intensely on astronomy. Suggesting a very different trend from the Western Bible translations, omissions and concepts.
