The volume brings together unique analysis by renowned experts in the telecommunications field.

Jeffrey`s arrival, unplanned but greatly anticipated, sparked a few adjustments in this family long removed from diaper duty, but Jeffrey was obviously a special gift. Eight weeks later, life took a completely unexpected downward spiral into the depths of despair when Jeffrey was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), a rare, progressive genetic neuromuscular disease with deadly ramifications. The neurologist handed over the utterly devastating news that Jeffrey had a severe case of the most destructive form without a morsel of hope that anything could be done to thwart the effects of the killer disease. Faced with the nightmare that their baby was expected to die within two years and that there was no treatment or cure, Randy and Helen took their faith in God to a higher level and embarked on a quest to defy SMA and its… [detailed...]

The Jericho Principle: How Companies Use Strategic Collaboration to Find New Sources of Value

Publisher: —
Description: `In the spirit of Christensen and with the urgency of Foster and Kaplan, Welborn and Kasten have dissected one of the critical challenges facing business leadership in times of great uncertainty: the collaborative imperative. Applying Ronald Coase?sseminal work on transaction costs to an economic environment increasingly characterized by Robert Metcalfe?s theory of the value of networks, they conclude: ?in times where uncertainty is the rule rather than the exception, we must find ways todrive down the transaction cost of innovation.? This creates a collaborative imperative that is both ?inexorably necessary and inherently risky.? Realizing the opportunity and managing the attendant risk of collaboration is the vital subject that comprises the body of this book. This is neither theoretician?s tome nor overwritten journalistic screed, The Jericho Principle is a serious analytical contribution for the practitioner ?about implementing strategy, not… [detailed...]

The Jesus Family Tomb: The Evidence Behind the Discovery No One Wanted to Find

2008 y.
Publisher: HarperOne
Description: `The Jesus Family Tomb` tells the story of what may very well be the greatest archaeological find of all time - the discovery of the family tomb of Jesus of Nazareth. Following the accidental bulldozing of a tomb during the building of a housing complex in suburban Jerusalem in 1980, archaeologists from the Israeli Antiquities Authority were immediately called to the scene. Inside, the archaeologists found ten ossuaries - limestone boxes that served as first-century coffins. Six had inscriptions, including Jesus, son of Joseph, two Marys, and Judah, son of Jesus. The team concluded that the unusual group of names was merely coincidence. After removing and cataloging the ossuaries, they left the tomb to the builders to finish what they had already started. Twenty-five years later, Simcha Jacobovici, an Emmy award-winning journalist, tracked down the ossuaries in the Israeli Antiquities Authority`s warehouse and decided to investigate this remarkable collection of names….

Description: What if everything we have been told about the origins of Christianity is a lie? What if a small group had always known the truth and had kept it hidden… until now? What if there is evidence that Jesus Christ survived the crucifixion? In `Holy Blood, Holy Grail` Michael Baigent and his co-authors Henry Lincoln and Richard Leigh stunned the world with a controversial theory that Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene married and founded a holy bloodline. The book became an international publishing phenomenon and was one of the sources for Dan Brown`s novel `The Da Vinci Code`. Now, with two additional decades of research behind him, Baigent`s The Jesus Papers presents explosive new evidence that challenges everything we know about the life and death of Jesus.
