Barnes, Peter, Capitalism 3.0: A Guide to Reclaiming the Commons, Berrett-Koehler Publishers 2006 Amazon Editorial Reviews Book Description 'In Capitalism 3.0, Peter Barnes redefines the debate about the costs and benefits of the operating system known as the free market. Despite clunky features, early versions of capitalism were somewhat successful. The current model, however, is packed with proprietary features that benefit a lucky few while threatening to crash the system for everyone else. Far from being "free," the market is accessible only to huge corporations that reap the benefits while passing the costs on to the consumer. Barnes maps out a better way. Drawn from his own career as a highly successful entrepreneur, the author's vision of capitalism includes alternatives to the current profit-driven corporate approach, new legal entities, and a more responsible use of markets and property rights. Capitalism 3.0 offers viable solutions to some of the country�s most pressing economic, environmental, and social concerns.'

Highly recommended for all who think about and study theology.' Elizabeth Johnson CSJ, Fordham University.

Phillips, E G, A Course of Analysis, Cambridge University Press 1962 From the Preface to the first edition: 'The main purpose of this book is to give a logical connected account of the subject, by starting with the definition of 'Number' and proceeding in what appears to be a natural sequence of steps. Since modern Analysis requires great precision of statement and demands form the student a very clear understanding of its fundamental principles, I have aimed at presenting the subject in such a way as to make every important concept clearly understood. ...'

Thiering, Barbara, Jesus the Man: A new interpretation from the Dead Sea scrolls, Acacia Press 1993 'Some will see her as an anti-Christ, a mischievous scholar determined to destroy Christianity. To others she will be a source of comfort and peace, enabling them to live Christian lives without having to accept as fact Jesus's divinity, his miracles, the virgin birth and resurrection.'

Hillsong Church Hillsong Church 'WHAT WE BELIEVE We believe that the Bible is God's Word. It is accurate, authoritative and applicable to our every day lives. We believe in one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy. We believe that sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life. We believe that in order to receive forgiveness and the 'new birth' we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives. We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptised in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts, including speaking in tongues. We believe that God has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives which is to worship God, fulfil our role in the Church and serve the community in which we live. We believe that God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and prosperous lives in order to help others more effectively. We believe that our eternal destination of either Heaven or hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised.' back
