A brief history of the Christian church.

America's research universities consistently dominate global rankings but may be entrenched in a model that no longer accomplishes their purposes. With their multiple roles of discovery, teaching, and public service, these institutions represent the gold standard in American higher education, but their evolution since the nineteenth century has been only incremental. The need for a new and complementary model that offers accessibility to an academic platform underpinned by knowledge production is critical to our well-being and economic competitiveness.
Michael Crow, president of Arizona State University and an outspoken advocate for reinventing the public research university, conceived the New American University model when he moved from Columbia University to Arizona State in 2002. Following a comprehensive reconceptualization spanning more than a decade, ASU has emerged as an international academic and research powerhouse that serves as the foundational prototype for the new model. Crow has led the… Read More

This book was published decades ago yet is still a great reference for visitors to the southwest who want to learn about cactus, but don't want to strain their brains. Reg Manning was a popular cartoonist and long-time desert dweller. He distills a lot of information about the desert and its unique flora into a small book. The use of whimsical cartoons entertains and instructs.

The Riverside Press CambridgeThe plan of this book is not only to present a simple outline of the chief events in the history of ancient Greece, but also to picture the customs of the people, their manner of living and thinking and feeling. So far as the size and scope of the little volume will permit, the names of those who were masters in art and literature are introduced, not in separate chapters as mere adjuncts to political history, but in their natural connection with the annals of their times, and ever in accordance with Plutarch's dictum, ^' Often an action of small note, a short saying or a jest, shall distinguish a person's real character more than the greatest sieges or the most important battles." In treating of the wars of Greece, I have followed their course as briefly as possible, and have given the space often allotted to details of battles to characteristic stories of some of the famous leaders, or a description of some one military operation that illustrates the difference between… Read More

Library Journal (2003-11-15):In full-time ministry for more than 20 years, Meyer has created more than 50 inspirational books, 240 audiocassette albums and 90 videos. Her latest daily devotional volume is deeply sincere but unevenly executed. Beginning with the entries about the importance of forming"Godly habits," Meyer's book covers a variety of uplifting subjects, such as divine love and grace. The book also includes practical and encouraging suggestions such as"Don't Procrastinate,""Set Priorities,""Love Someone Today" and"Appreciate Correction," all of which she backs up with quotations from scripture. One of her typical instructions reads,"Don't misuse the power of words by talking too much about your faith or talking too little about your faith. Choose kind and gentle words that lift people and quiet gossip and strife." However, Meyer's clear-headed advice is often muddied by the book's distracting way of combining exegesis with quotation. The translations of each day's Biblical reading make… Read More

Great love stories thrive on sacrifice. Throughout The Twilight Saga (Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse), Stephenie Meyer has emulated great love stories--Romeo and Juliet, Wuthering Heights--with the fated, yet perpetually doomed love of Bella (the human girl) and Edward (the vampire who feeds on animals instead of humans). In Breaking Dawn, the fourth and final installment in the series, Bella's story plays out in some unexpected ways. The ongoing conflicts that made this series so compelling--a human girl in love with a vampire, a werewolf in love with a human girl, the generations-long feud between werewolves and vampires--resolve pretty quickly, apparently so that Meyer could focus on Bella's latest opportunity for self-sacrifice: giving her life for someone she loves even more than Edward. How close she comes to actually making that sacrifice is questionable, which is a big shift from the earlier books. Even though you knew Bella would make it through somehow, the threats to her life, and to her… Read More
