Описание: By means of a Kierkegaardian critique of postmodernism, Ronald L. Hall argues that the postmodernist flirtation with Kierkegaard ignores the existential import of his thought. Word and Spirit offers a novel interpretation of Kierkegaard's conception of the self, according to which spirit is essentially linked to the speech act. In an extended interpretation of Kierkegaard's Either/Or, Hall uses insights from Austin, Wittgenstein, Polanyi, and Poteat to fill out and explicate Kierkegaard's views in the context of modern language philosophy. The enriched concept of the speech act represented by the Hebrew idea of dabhar frames Hall's critique of irony, romanticism, Don Giovanni, Faust, the demonic, music, and ultimately, postmodernisim in a Kierkegaardian mode. The result of the modern suspicion of speech, Hall concludes, is a demonic, musical spiritlessness.

Описание:
A great book that reflects a personal expression of life through poetry and short stories. The poems are not a series of love sonnets, although there are moments, but geared more toward images and opinions formed in living life here and abroad. I love history and desire it be told by those who lived it rather than those who wish it differently. The writings add small details to the lives of prominent figures, e.g., Bobby Kennedy, Muhammad Ali, and Linda Carter (Wonder Woman), where history has touched me. There are also wonderful personal stories of growing up in Kentucky.
This is the authors second book that follows the fictional thriller The Russian, a book that develops the lives of CIA operative Sam Mountain and his nemesis Nikolai Baskov, an assassin working to influence world policy on behalf of the President of Russia.

Описание: The Definitive Guide to Petroleum Reservoir Engineering-Now Fully Updated to Reflect New Technologies and Easier Calculation Methods
Craft and Hawkins' classic introduction to petroleum reservoir engineering is now fully updated for new technologies and methods, preparing students and practitioners to succeed in the modern industry. In Applied Petroleum Reservoir Engineering, Third Edition, renowned expert Ronald E. Terry and project engineer J. Brandon Rogers review the history of reservoir engineering, define key terms, carefully introduce the material balance approach, and show how to apply it with many types of reservoirs. Next, they introduce key principles of fluid flow, water influx, and advanced recovery (including hydrofracturing). Throughout, they present field examples demonstrating the use of material balance and history matching to predict reservoir performance. For the first time, this edition relies on Microsoft Excel with VBA to make calculations easier and more intuitive. This edition features
Extensive updates to reflect modern practices and technologies, including gas condensate reservoirs, water flooding, and enhanced oil recovery
Clearer, more complete introductions to vocabulary and concepts- including a more extensive glossary
Several complete application examples, including single-phase gas, gas-condensate, undersaturated oil, and saturated oil reservoirs
Calculation examples using Microsoft Excel with VBA throughout
Many new example and practice problems using actual well data
A revamped history-matching case study project that integrates key topics and asks readers to predict future well production

Описание:
The authors commemorate their ancestors, descendants, and heritage with honor as a memorial stone for their children and their children's children so they will know from whence they have come in this family history.
That history includes Madison and Ella Ward, both born in the mid-1800s, married in 1876, and who raised eight children on one acre with one mule. They stood on their Christian faith and believed in God.
Through their love and strength of family, they survived the degradation of post-slavery America to prosper and become - six generations later - among the most respected landowners in Alabama. We Are the Wards preserves the Ward family legacy, inspires future generations, and encourages other families to follow their vision.
The strength of the Wards, as for most black families since slavery, has been critical to surviving an inhumane system whose legacy has lived on via the Black Codes, Jim Crowism, and institutional racism.
While each generation will be bombarded with new challenges, new value systems, and new lifestyles, families can find success by refusing to compromise their Christian values - just like the Wards.
