Book Description
Have you heard people say, “Fearing God doesn’t mean to be afraid of Him but to be in awe of Him and revere Him?” I have, too. But what if it’s more than that? And what if this fear can change our lives? We are living in dark, chaotic times where sin is raging in the world and our hearts. Even many in churches who say they love God are fighting habitual sins. What if our sin problem is a fear problem? In my grief, I searched Scripture, asking the Lord for a deeper understanding of the fear of God. He revealed a powerful point of clarification—fearing God is not only a mindset but a way of life. It’s not just how we feel or what we think about God but how we respond visibly to His glory. With Scripture as its foundation and authority, Holy Gravity explores the connection between our sanctification and the fear of God. God’s people are to be set apart; our greatest distinction from the world is our fear of God manifested in holy living. Through a relationship with Jesus Christ, God frees us from sin, maturing us by the Holy Spirit in visible ways. In this place of God-focused fear, we can offer the hope of Christ to the world and one another. I pray you will find that God intends our fear of Him to transform our lives and make us holy. “Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.” Ecclesiastes 12:13

Book Description
Adding some 20 percent to the original content, this is a completely updated edition of Steven Weisenburger's indispensable guide to Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow. Weisenburger takes the reader page by page, often line by line, through the welter of historical references, scientific data, cultural fragments, anthropological research, jokes, and puns around which Pynchon wove his story. Weisenburger fully annotates Pynchon's use of languages ranging from Russian and Hebrew to such subdialects of English as 1940s street talk, drug lingo, and military slang as well as the more obscure terminology of black magic, Rosicrucianism, and Pavlovian psychology. The Companion also reveals the underlying organization of Gravity's Rainbow--how the book's myriad references form patterns of meaning and structure that have eluded both admirers and critics of the novel. The Companion is keyed to the pages of the principal American editions of Gravity's Rainbow: Viking/Penguin (1973), Bantam (1974), and the special, repaginated Penguin paperback (2000) honoring the novel as one of twenty "Great Books of the Twentieth Century."

Book Description
The novel Snowdrop Waltz is a warm defense of poor people in Stavanger in the 1870s. “I’ve wanted to describe life stories, struggling young people with an unbending will to live. Just as snowdrops break their way through the snow,” says author Dag Gustav Gundersen. The latter half of the nineteenth century is also a particularly interesting period. The emergence of modern Norway began. And in Stavanger, everything peaked because the economy and living conditions fluctuated far more here than most other places. The herring disappeared, the tall-ship area ended, and the sardine-canning industry emerged. “I describe ordinary people and am trying to portray society as it looked from below—from the point of so desperately poor people that we can hardly comprehend now 130 years after,” says Storla. Simultaneously with the distress, Stavanger experienced a major revival, and new beliefs are challenging the old. This also plays a central role in Snowdrop Waltz. “The famous author Alexander Kielland made a unilaterally negative description of the layman movement in his novels, a portrait that in many ways has been allowed to be unchallenged. However, there are a rich source material documenting the importance of the layman—temperance—and later labor movements; they can hardly be overstated when it comes to their importance to social development and democracy. At the chapel, Bethany arose the previously unthinkable communion between people of both sexes and different classes. Ordinary people spoke up in the meetings, and were able to advocate their views and proclaim their faith,” says Storla.

Book Description
An ideal introduction to Einstein's general theory of relativity This unique textbook provides an accessible introduction to Einstein's general theory of relativity, a subject of breathtaking beauty and supreme importance in physics. With his trademark blend of wit and incisiveness, A. Zee guides readers from the fundamentals of Newtonian mechanics to the most exciting frontiers of research today, including de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spacetimes, Kaluza-Klein theory, and brane worlds. Unlike other books on Einstein gravity, this book emphasizes the action principle and group theory as guides in constructing physical theories. Zee treats various topics in a spiral style that is easy on beginners, and includes anecdotes from the history of physics that will appeal to students and experts alike. He takes a friendly approach to the required mathematics, yet does not shy away from more advanced mathematical topics such as differential forms. The extensive discussion of black holes includes rotating and extremal black holes and Hawking radiation. The ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate students, Einstein Gravity in a Nutshell also provides an essential resource for professional physicists and is accessible to anyone familiar with classical mechanics and electromagnetism. It features numerous exercises as well as detailed appendices covering a multitude of topics not readily found elsewhere.
