Download or read book Diamonds and War written by David De Vries and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on previously unexamined historical documents found in archives in Belgium, England, Israel, the Netherlands, and the United States, this book is the first in English to tell the story of the formation of one of the world's main strongholds of diamond production and trade in Palestine during the 1930s and 1940s. The history of the diamond-cutting industry, characterized by a long-standing Jewish presence, is discussed as a social history embedded in the international political economy of its times; the genesis of the industry in Palestine is placed on a broad continuum within the geographic and economic dislocations of Dutch, Belgian, and German diamond-cutting centers. In providing a micro-historical and interdisciplinary perspective, the story of the diamond industry in Mandate Palestine proposes a more nuanced picture of the uncritical approach to the strict boundaries of ethnic-based occupational communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author will take us through the process of the Holy Spirit's work in a life that is hungry and thirsty for the hidden riches of the Father. We must yield to the Father's call to this diamond-kind of character, which brings the heat of His light into the deepest part of our nature. This absolute light of God will expose, sift, and analyze, even to the depth of our nature, and it will judge the thought and the intent of our heart. ". . .these pages are filled with words of anointing and power! The depth and knowledge of the Word coupled with pellucid analogies of the diamond-kind of character has sparked my desire to pursue this character in my everyday walk with the Lord and with those around me." Kalan Lowery "From the very first chapter of this book, I sensed God's presence. This book is filled with treasures of great worth and reading it was definitely a life changing experience." Tina Esqueff "In reading this book, I found that I could not put it down, and that it caused a deep introspection. The anointing on each page caused me to question the make-up of my own character. I believe that as you read this book, it will cause you to examine your life and your character." Rev. Wayne Priest "...Diamonds in a World of Glass will be a book in my library that I will read again and again. Rev. Adkins unveils hidden treasures, 'diamonds' from the Word of God for us to plainly see." Rev. Stacey Scaife

Download or read book Diamond written by N. S. Hellerstein and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about ''diamond'', a logic of paradox. In diamond, a statement can be true yet false; an ''imaginary'' state, midway between being and non-being. Diamond''s imaginary values solve many logical paradoxes unsolvable in two-valued boolean logic. In this volume, paradoxes by Russell, Cantor, Berry and Zeno are all resolved. This book has three sections: Paradox Logic, which covers the classic paradoxes of mathematical logic, shows how they can be resolved in this new system; The Second Paradox, which relates diamond to Boolean logic and the Spencer-Brown modulator; and Metamathematical Dilemma, which relates diamond to Godelian meta-mathematics and dilemma games.

Download or read book Vanishing Sands written by Orrin H. Pilkey and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-12 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time of accelerating sea level rise and increasingly intensifying storms, the world’s sandy beaches and dunes have never been more crucial to protecting coastal environments. Yet, in order to meet the demands of large-scale construction projects, sand mining is stripping beaches and dunes, destroying environments, and exploiting labor in the process. The authors of Vanishing Sands track the devastating impact of legal and illegal sand mining over the past twenty years, ranging from Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean to South America and the eastern United States. They show how sand mining has reached crisis levels: beach, dune, and river ecosystems are in danger of being lost forever, while organized crime groups use deadly force to protect their illegal mining operations. Calling for immediate and widespread resistance to sand mining, the authors demonstrate that its cessation is paramount for saving not only beaches, dunes, and associated environments but also lives and tourism economies everywhere.
