Understanding the Koran : A Quick Christian Guide to the Muslim Holy Book

2004 y.
Publisher: Zondervan
Description: What You Should Know about Islam`s Holy Book How is it like the Bible? How is it different? Why is it important? Muslims believe the Koran exists as a literal book in heaven and was dictated to the prophet Muhammad by the angel Gabriel. It is only the length of the New Testament, yet a fifth of the world claims it is the complete revelation of God. To most Americans, though, the Koran remains a mystery. Did you know that the Koran teaches the virgin birth and miracle-filled, prophetic ministry of Jesus? Claims to fully embrace his teachings? Reveres Abraham, Moses, Jonah, and other biblical prophets? Find out how the Koran resembles the Bible-and the drastic ways in which it differs. Understanding the Koran gives you a fascinating essential grasp of Islam`s holy book: where it came from, what it teaches, how Muslims view it, and how the Allah of the Koran compares with the God of the Bible. Cherished as the final, perfect revelation of God`s will by 1.2 billion Muslims worldwide, the… [detailed...]

Understanding the Middle East Peace Process: Israeli Academia and the Struggle for Identity (Routledge Studies on the Arab-Israeli Conflict)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Tracing the evolution of the Israeli academic debate over history, politics, and collective identity, `Understanding the Middle East Peace Process` examines the Middle East peace process since Oslo and follows the discursive struggle over Israeli collective identity. Based on interviews with key protagonists, this book gives a detailed analysis of the interrelatedness of academic debate, societal discourse, and collective identity against the background of major political events in Israel. It charts the ascendancy and expansion of post-Zionism, outlines the emergence of neo-Zionism from the political right, and the re-appropriation of Zionism in light of the new political climate of peace-making. Ghazi-Bouillon provides a new perspective on the failure of the New Historians to revolutionize Israeli intellectual life and the failure of post-Zionism to revolutionize Israeli political life, whilst assessing neo-Zionism`s potential to do both. Asima A. Ghazi-Bouillon obtained her… [detailed...]

Understanding the Shared Situation Awareness Process: A Communication Framework for Improved Team Performance

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Situation awareness (SA) has been defined as the extent to which a person receives and processes real world stimuli in order to form a mental model of a given situation. This stimuli is continuously interpreted to form a conception of what is going on around us. Shared situation awareness (SSA) is defined as the overlap in individual situation awareness among two or more people at a given moment in time and space. In small group settings high-level SSA occurs when this overlap is robust, accurate and ongoing. This construct is a crucial success factor for small groups engaged in complex tasks. Previous research has focused on the results of groups that have high degrees of SSA. Less attention has been given to the process of SSA formation and maintenance. This paper refocuses existing theories to develop a communication process designed to improve SSA in task-oriented groups. A training regimen to acquire key skills is also developed and tested. The end goal was to develop a clear… [detailed...]
