John Maynard Keynes: Keynesianism into the Twenty-First Century

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This important volume sheds new light on the ideas and policies of John Maynard Keynes. It presents nineteen contributions from an outstanding group of international economists who aim to understand Keynes as an economist whose work is still influential in both academic research and in more popular economic thought. Although it is over fifty years since John Maynard Keynes passed away, and over sixty years ago that The General Theory was published, his ideas and policies continue to exert an enormous influence on academic economics, as well as being used to solve economic problems faced in the world today, and no doubt, the years to come. The decline of interest in Keynes and his policies during the 1970s has been replaced in the late eighties and nineties by a revival in academic interest, as well as the use of his policy suggestions to solve current economic problems. Divided into five sections, this book considers not only Keynes`s theoretical contributions, but… [detailed...]

John McCain: A Biography (Greenwood Biographies)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A rebel and risk-taker from childhood, John McCain-son and grandson of admirals-nevertheless chose to follow the traditional path marked out for him in the military. Nearly six years in a North Vietnamese prison tested his resolve and proved his extraordinary resilience and will to survive. Coming to Congress, McCain found that making his way in politics demanded a different set of survival skills, and he grew accustomed to the corridors of power while striving to keep his independence. This lively biography traces McCain`s unlikely ascent to the verge of attaining the nation`s highest office while never ceasing to challenge himself and others to `serve a cause greater than self-interest.` [detailed...]

John Monash: A Biography

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe military valor, scholarship, and entrepreneurial leadership of Sir John Monash are recounted in this biography of one of Australia`s most famous public figures. While his academic prowess in the fields of literature, music, theater, language, and Jewish scholarship distinguished him at the University of Melbourne, Monash gained national fame during World War I when he was one of the few senior allied generals to emerge from Gallipoli with his reputation unscathed. His pioneering use of reinforced concrete, leadership of the state electricity commission, and work to secure the Gippsland`s huge brown coal deposits were signatures of his domestic economic leadership. This revealing portrait provides a glimpse of the intensely personal and introspective man behind the confident leader. [detailed...]

Description: Book Description1927. America`s familiarity with stories of men of humble origin who have won success, is such as to foster an easy indifference. Individuals made the history of our country, individuals who led groups. This story is but a bright thread in the tapestry of the history of the Northwest. In one life generalization ceases and the particulars which make history personal and vivid are preeminent. Hence, biographies. Perhaps this story may be a stimulus, a signpost on the way all travel. If one little Canadian boy reads the message of the somber pines, others may read and run the race. [detailed...]

John Owen: Reformed Catholic, Renaissance Man

2007 y.
Publisher: Ashgate
Description: John Owen is considered one of the sharpest theological minds of the seventeenth century and a significant theologian in his own right, particularly in terms of his contributions to pneumatology, christology, and ecclesiology. Carl Trueman presents a major study of the key elements of John Owen`s writings and his theology. Presenting his theology in its historical context, Trueman explores the significance of Owen`s work in ongoing debates on seventeenth century theology, and examines the contexts within which Owen`s theology was formulated and the shape of his mind in relation to the intellectual culture of his day - particularly in contemporary philosophy, literature and theology. Examining Owen`s theology from pneumatological, political and eschatological perspectives, Trueman highlights the trinitarian structure of his theology and how his theological work informed his understanding of practical Christianity. With the current resurgence of interest in seventeenth century Reformed… [detailed...]

John Paul II: A Pope for the People

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionA quarter of a century ago, the Catholic Church surprised the world by electing its first Polish pope, 58-year-old Karol Wojtyla, known as John Paul II. The pontiff`s charisma has made him a beloved figure even as he has struggled to represent and unite the disparate factions of the modern Catholic community. Published in cooperation with Der Stern , Germany`s widest-selling weekly magazine, this timely book portrays the pope`s complex personality and politics through texts by five internationally renowned authors, accompanied by a series of stunning photographs that survey his life and work. John Paul II`s leadership has inspired both enormous respect and constant debate. His portrait as a generally modern pope-who travels widely and makes use of the latest in communication media to explore existential questions of our time-stands in contrast to his conservative views on such issues as abortion, birth control, and the ordination of women.

John Paul Jones: America`s First Sea Warrior

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This fresh look at America?s first sea warrior avoids both the hero worship of the past and the recent, inaccurate deconstructionist views of John Paul Jones?s astonishing life. The author goes beyond a narrow naval context to establish Jones as a key player in the American Revolution, something not done by previous biographers, and explains what drove him to his achievements. At the same time, Admiral Joseph Callo fully examines Jones?s dramatic military achievements?including his improbable victory off Flamborough Head in the Continental ship Bonhomme Richard?but in the context of the times rather than as stand-alone events. The book also looks at some interesting but lesser-known aspects of Jones?s naval career, including his relationships with such civilian leaders as Benjamin Franklin. How Jones handled those often-difficult dealings, Callo maintains, contributed to the nation?s concept of civilian control of the military. Suggesting that Jones might well be the first U.S….

Description: Book DescriptionWilliam Oddie, Editor A distinguished list of Catholic writers present their unique insights on the extraordinary achievements of the 25 years of Pope John Paul II`s pontificate. This prestigious group of writers make a strong case that this has not been merely an exceptional pontificate but one of the few epoch-making pontificates in Christian history. The nine writers include Aidan Nichols, O.P., John Saward, Rodger Charles, S.J., Ian Kerr, and Leonie Caldecott. This book establishes clearly that Pope John Paul II is not only an historical figure whose actions and personal qualities have effected one of the great turning points in human affairs, but he is also one of those rare beings who possesses the vision and intensity of focus thatcompel the authors to say not only that he is an exceptional pope, but something much more: that here, truly, is Joannes Paulus Magnus: John Paul the Great. Far from being a reactionary, this has been a pope of startling originality… [detailed...]

John Peel: Margrave of the Marshes

2007 y.
Publisher: Chicago Review Press
Description: When he died in 2004, John Peel was in the middle of writing his memoir, which was completed by his wife, Sheila Ravenscroft, with help from their four children. His compelling autobiography details his life as the most influential DJ in rock history. At BBC’s Radio 1, Peel helmed his own show from 1968 until his death, and first introduced UK listeners to reggae, punk, and hip-hop. T-Rex, David Bowie, the Faces, the Sex Pistols, Fairport Convention, Pink Floyd, the Clash, the Buzzcocks, the Cure, Joy Division, the Wedding Present, Def Leppard, Pulp, the Smiths, and the White Stripes have all credited Peel as a major boost to their careers. This intimate portrait of the man and his music provides firsthand remembrances of many of these acts and illuminates how this modest and unassuming man singlehandedly changed the course of rock’n’roll.

John Piper in the 1930s: Abstraction on the Beach

2003 y.
Publisher: Merrell
Description: John Piper was one of the leading Modernist artists of the twentieth century whose work was not only at the forefront of artistic developments but also appealed directly to a wide public. Marking the centenary of Piper`s birth in 1903, this book dramatically uncovers the various shifts in his early career while working largely on the south coast of England, from a lyrical, painterly style and lively use of collage, inspired by Picasso and Braque, into pure abstraction, in keeping with International Modernism. The second half of the 1930s saw the order and harmony of Piper`s work unsettled by the onset of war, and with it a return to representation in an attempt to find a contemporary idiom with which to express his romantic love of the past. The tension between abstraction and realism in Piper`s work of the period is engagingly told and stunningly illustrated in this, the first in-depth exploration of the artist`s formative years.

John Ransom Philips

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The ancient Egyptians were the first to examine the afterlife in a book composed between 1567 and 1085 BCE. This collection of funerary texts has historically been referred to as the `Book of the Dead` or `Book of Going Forth by Day`. For the Egyptians, the `Book of the Dead` was a vital part of the quest for immortality. Millennia later, the second `Book of the Dead`, written in Tibet dating from the eighth century CE, tells a similar tale, but this journey has an entirely different end - rebirth here on earth, instead of in another world. `John Ransom Phillips: A Contemporary Book of the Dead` charts and affirms the Egyptian tradition of preparing for the afterlife by celebrating our earthly existence in all its fullness. Using watercolors on papyrus - an echo of the `Book of the Dead` incantations written on papyrus scrolls buried with mummies in ancient Egypt - this collection of colorful paintings creates a contemporary interpretation of how human beings contemplate their earthly… [detailed...]
