Book Description
The hidden seeds of the Christian renewal in China today include the outstanding Chinese Christians in Salt and Light 2, a dozen new life stories with lively anecdotes and photographs. These reformers made lasting contributions that shaped modern China. Working out of the limelight in their professions, they had quiet but powerful influence on early twentieth-century civil society. Motivated by their faith, they modeled essential virtues. This series helps recover a lost Christian heritage linked closely to a legacy of East-West cooperation in an earlier global era.

Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - At certain moments during the days that followed the degree of tension her relationship with Ditmar had achieved tested the limits of Janet's ingenuity and powers of resistance. Yet the sense of mastery at being able to hold such a man in leash was by no means unpleasurable to a young woman of her vitality and spirit. There was always the excitement that the leash might break - and then what? Here was a situation, she knew instinctively, that could not last, one fraught with all sorts of possibilities, intoxicating or abhorrent to contemplate; and for that very reason fascinating. When she was away from Ditmar and tried to think about it she fell into an abject perplexity, so full was it of anomalies and contradictions, of conflicting impulses; so far beyond her knowledge and experience. For Janet had been born in an age which is rapidly discarding blanket morality and taboos, which has as yet to achieve the morality of scientific knowledge, of the individual instance. Tradition, convention, the awful examples portrayed for gain in the movies, even her mother's pessimistic attitude in regard to the freedom with which the sexes mingle to-day were powerless to influence her. The thought, however, that she might fundamentally resemble her sister Lise, despite a fancied superiority, did occasionally shake her and bring about a revulsion against Ditmar. Janet's problem was in truth, though she failed so to specialize it, the supreme problem of our time: what is the path to self-realization? how achieve emancipation from the commonplace?

Book Description
Salt and Light presents the life stories of outstanding Chinese Christians who, as early modernizers, promoted China's nation building and moral progress in the early twentieth century. Lively anecdotes and photographs highlight the strong character of ten pioneers in the modern professions of education, medicine, journalism, and diplomacy. These professionals were motivated by faith to introduce practical social reforms and build up China's civil society. They modeled and promoted virtues essential to social progress during the golden age of Chinese Protestantism. Their stories touch on themes important in today's global era: patterns of cooperation between foreign and Chinese partners, the contributions to China of Western-educated professionals, Christianity's role in furthering East-West understanding and exchanges, and the transnational nature of modern Chinese Christianity. The editors and authors articulate the importance of recovering China's Christian heritage as part of world Christianity. Contributors: Connie Shemo, Fuk-Tsang Ying, Elizabeth Littell-Lamb, Guowei Wright, Peter Tze Ming Ng, and Mary Jo Waelchli

Book Description
This book uses art photography as a point of departure for learning about physics, while also using physics as a point of departure for asking fundamental questions about the nature of photography as an art. Although not a how-to manual, the topics center around hands-on applications, sometimes illustrated by photographic processes that are inexpensive and easily accessible to students (including a versatile new process developed by the author, and first described in print in this series). A central theme is the connection between the physical interaction of light and matter on the one hand, and the artistry of the photographic processes and their results on the other. One half of Energy and Color focuses on the physics of energy, power, illuminance, and intensity of light, and how these relate to the photographic exposure, including a detailed example that follows the emission of light from the sun all the way through to the formation of the image in the camera. These concepts are described in both their traditional manner, but also using very-low sensitivity photography as an example, which brings the physical concepts to the fore in a visible way, whereas they are often hidden with ordinary high-speed photographic detectors. Energy and Color also considers color in terms of the spectrum of light, how it interacts with the subject, and how the camera's light detector interacts with the image focused upon it. But of equal concern is the only partially-understood and sometimes unexpected ways in which the human eye/brain interprets this spectral stimulus as color. The volume covers basic photographic subjects such as shutter, aperture, ISO, metering and exposure value, but also given their relations to the larger themes of the book less familiar topics such as the Jones-Condit equation, Lambertian versus isotropic reflections, reflection and response curves, and the opponent-process model of color perception. Although written at a beginning undergraduate level, the topics are chosen for their role in a more general discussion of the relation between science and art that is of interest to readers of all backgrounds and levels of expertise.

Book Description
This Research Topic is the second volume of its kind. Please see the publications of the first collection here. Cannabis has been used in even the oldest traditional medicines available. In the last century, somewhat negative attention has prevailed when it comes to the psychotropic and addictive effects and abuse potential; for this reason Cannabis has been banned and is illegal in many countries. In recent years, however, there has been a more in-depth evaluation of the legalization of cannabinoids for medical use in several countries following heightened media attention and reports of effectiveness, although not always thoroughly backed up by scientific evidence. In fact, up to now the results from studies discussing the efficacy of the medical use of Cannabis are sometimes contradictory and not always conclusive. Some factors fueling this inconclusiveness include the heterogeneous nature of the studied populations, different Cannabis preparations and dosages, studies with uncontrolled settings and different routes of administration. Moreover, these uncertainties are partly derived from legislative restrictions which, over time, have severely limited the conduction of rigorous, controlled, and comparable studies. The official introduction of pharmaceutical grade Cannabis inflorescences for medicinal purposes has allowed physicians and pharmacists respectively to legally prescribe and prepare several Cannabis preparations. Such products are currently being administered to patients without their efficacy being evaluated in controlled studies: for each patient the composition and route of administration may be different. In addition, many advanced administration systems have been developed or are still under development, but few clinical trials have been completed. This second volume welcomes submissions of Original Research and Review articles building on and focusing on the in-depth analysis of the legal, technological and pharmacological aspects related to the medical use of chemically characterized Cannabis-based formulations. Studies carried out in the past or still in progress will also be considered to assess what evolution there has been in using Cannabis to treat diseases or conditions. We invite submissions dealing with the following themes, including but not limited to: • Cannabis-based formulations: current and future applications in therapy. • Legal, technological, and pharmacological aspects related to the medical use of Cannabis. • Non-clinical evidence supporting therapeutic applications of Cannabis (including in vivo, in invitro and in silico studies) Important note for Authors : Only studies dealing with highly purified, chemically characterized Cannabis containing formulations, where the chemical structure and purity must be precisely described by appropriate analytical methods will be considered for review in Experimental Pharmacology and Drug Discovery. The following studies can be accepted for review in Ethnopharmacology if the extract is characterised in sufficient detail as is needed for a licensed medicine (see here.) (I) Clinical Trial articles will be accepted for review only in the case that they are randomized, double-blinded, and placebo controlled. (II) Any studies relating to advanced formulations or galenic preparations to better evaluate the potential effects of their application in future therapies.
