Download or read book Think written by John Piper and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book to help Christians to think about thinking. Focusing on the life of the mind helps us to know God better, love him more, and care for the world. Along with an emphasis on emotions and the experience of God, we also need to practise careful thinking about God. Piper contends that 'thinking is indispensable on the path to passion for God'. So how are we to maintain a healthy balance of mind and heart, thinking and feeling? Piper urges us to think for the glory of God. He demonstrates from Scripture that glorifying God with our minds and hearts is not either-or, but both-and. Thinking carefully about God fuels passion and affections for God. Likewise, Christ-exalting emotion leads to disciplined thinking. Readers will be reminded that 'the mind serves to know the truth that fuels the fires of the heart'.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wald's book is clearly the first textbook on general relativity with a totally modern point of view; and it succeeds very well where others are only partially successful. The book includes full discussions of many problems of current interest which are not treated in any extant book, and all these matters are considered with perception and understanding."—S. Chandrasekhar "A tour de force: lucid, straightforward, mathematically rigorous, exacting in the analysis of the theory in its physical aspect."—L. P. Hughston, Times Higher Education Supplement "Truly excellent. . . . A sophisticated text of manageable size that will probably be read by every student of relativity, astrophysics, and field theory for years to come."—James W. York, Physics Today

Download or read book The Nurturing of New Educational Researchers written by María de Ibarrola and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Five educational researchers, coming from a variety of higher education institutions, academic disciplines, and cultural backgrounds, met together over a three-year period to discuss the present and future of doctoral education and training in the field of education. Their hope was that the product of their discussions would enable educators and policy makers around the world to rethink, restructure, and even design new programs to prepare the rising generation of educational researchers in their countries. These differences in academic, national, and institutional perspectives led to a variety of ways, even conflicting ones, in which the quality of doctoral education and training could be improved. Based on our discussion, we came to the conclusion that there are no universal solutions to the problems involved in setting up and operating a quality doctoral program. Rather, educators would be wise to be aware of the alternatives at their disposal and make informed choices based on an understanding of the larger societal and political contexts in their states, regions, or nations. To facilitate this decision-making process, we have chosen to conclude with a set of key questions that should be addressed by those seeking to examine and improve their doctoral programs in education and briefly describe some of the alternative ways of answering these questions. Instead of passively absorbing a unified position, then, the reader is invited to join the dialogue that has taken place (and is still taking place) between and among the authors. To exemplify such a dialogue, each chapter is followed by one or two commentaries written by members of the group. We would encourage the reader to write commentaries on the individual chapters (and perhaps the commentaries), thereby engaging in a dialogue with the authors on a fairly personal level.

Download or read book Ser m dico ayer hoy y ma ana written by Alberto Agrest and published by Libros del Zorzal. This book was released on 2020 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mi ayer, al que me referiré en este libro, es 1947, año en el que me gradué. En ese entonces, ser médico significaba haber adquirido los conocimientos teóricos en la facultad y los prácticos en los hospitales. El conocimiento médico avanzaba de a pie y con paso de paseo. Los médicos podían ser clínicos y cirujanos, y abarcar varias especialidades. Ser médico hoy es muy diferente. A la responsabilidad ética de antaño hacia la propia conciencia, se ha sumado la responsabilidad legal respecto de pacientes muchas veces hostiles y estimulados por abogados poco escrupulosos. Mañana (un mañana que ya es hoy) se le añadirá todavía la responsabilidad económica, exigida por quienes gerencian los sistemas de salud. Así, cualquier clínico, además de enfrentar problemas activos de un paciente concreto, deberá enfrentar –ya lo hace hoy–problemas probabilísticos. Ayer, hoy y mañana no son sólo cambios cronológicos, sino también variaciones de pautas culturales. Sabemos que no podemos detener el tiempo; aun así, podemos defender de la erosión las pautas culturales que creemos dignas. Hasta hace algunas décadas, el médico vivía la pauta cultural de la entrega generosa y la sabiduría, que hoy debe cambiar por la de la efectividad y la eficiencia. El esfuerzo debe apuntar, entonces, a conciliar ambas culturas; el desafío es cómo hacerlo. Alberto Agrest Sus escritos, que deberían ser de lectura obligada para quienes se dedican a la medicina y más aún para las nuevas generaciones que planean hacerlo, lo han convertido ya en un clásico de la reflexión sobre el destino de la medicina contemporánea. Guillermo Jaim Etcheverry
Download or read book Re Imagining Community and Civil Society in Latin America and the Caribbean written by Roberta Rice and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American and Caribbean communities and civil societies are undergoing a rapid process of transformation. Instead of pervasive social atomization, political apathy, and hollowed-out democracies, which have become the norm in some parts of the world, this region is witnessing an emerging collaboration between community, civil society, and government that is revitalizing democracy. This book argues that a key explanation lies in the powerful and positive relationship between community and civil society that exists in the region. The ideas of community and civil society tend to be studied separately, as analytically distinct concepts however, this volume seeks to explore their potential to work together. A unique contribution of the work is the space for dialogue it creates between the social sciences and the humanities. Many of the studies included in the volume are based on primary fieldwork and place-based case studies. Others relate literature, music and film to important theoretical works, providing a new direction in interdisciplinary studies, and highlighting the role that the arts play in community revival and broader processes of social change. A truly multi-disciplinary book bridging established notions of civil society and community through an authentically interdisciplinary approach to the topic.
