Book Description
In the last months of 1947, as World War II came to a close, Walter Brattain and his physicist colleagues at Bell labs were reorganised into a solid-state research group. They theorised that new experiments with semiconducting silicon could produce a more efficient amplifier which would bring huge improvements in telecommunications. Little did they know that their experimental results would revolutionise the emerging world of micro-electronics, fuelling far-reaching advances in technology, be applied to new "computing" machines and lead to December 1947 being dubbed the "miracle month". They also had little idea that many people would go to great lengths to get their hands on Brattain's laboratory notebook to uncover the secrets of this research and turn them to other sinister uses as the cold war got underway. Who were these people, who was funding them and how did they keep getting one step ahead of Bell's security? Brattain was forced to encode all of his findings - including his suspicions about his colleague and rival, William Shockley. Discover from the puzzles and riddles in his lab book what he had stumbled upon and the decoy trail that he left to foil his infiltrators.As you work through and solve each of the 40 puzzles, visit the unique website URL for each puzzle to collect the key for a correct answer. Write them down in the book as you'll need these to solve further puzzles and ultimately piece the story together. You'll need an internet connected device with a browser, but no special app.You may need to think laterally to solve for the word or number answer in each puzzle. Walter left clues on the pages - everything was intentional. The keys are words or numbers that will be used later on in the book.You don't need to understand the subject matter, but it will be intriguing to the more technically minded. You'll be prompted to write, draw, combine pages, listen and move puzzle pieces around. Some puzzles you may see straight away, others will be a journey of discovery and mystery as you get into the story to find the correct answer.

Find Your Miracle

Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Discover the miracle you’ve been looking for through an exploration of nine miracles of Jesus, each filled with meaning, insight, and discovery for all who desperately need a miracle of their own. Healing the blind. Walking on water. Calming the storm. Feeding thousands with a few loaves and fish. Every miracle Jesus performed was for a purpose. There was provision for that specific moment in time. But what if each miracle was also embedded with the promise of future provision…for you? In Find Your Miracle, New York Times best-selling authors Kerry and Chris Shook take a fresh look at nine of Jesus’s most incredible times of healing and supernatural intervention. The Shooks unpack these moments in modern language to usher you into the pain, desperation, breakthrough, and miracle of each encounter. Plus they reveal a “miracle map” that connects that moment long ago to our needs today for revelation, transformation, and restoration. Weaving together the biblical narrative with contemporary real-life application, Kerry and Chris Shook arrange these New Testament miracles under four overarching descriptions of Jesus the Miracle Worker: the Healer, the Provider, the Storm Chaser, and the Life Giver. Rather than running from our overwhelming situations, the Shooks encourage us to remain steady, fully trusting that Jesus stands ready to guide us to the miracle we most need, and possibly least expect.

The Legitimacy of Miracle
Author: Robert A. Larmer
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 0739184229
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 229
Book Description
The core contention of The Legitimacy of Miracle is that a priori philosophical dismissals of the possibility or probability of justified belief in miracles fail. Whether or not it is rational to believe that events best understood as miracles actually occur is not to be decided on the basis of armchair theorizing, but rather on the basis of meticulous examination of the evidence. Such examination, however, needs to be set free from unwarranted assumptions that miracles are “impossible, improbable, or improper.” Philosophical analysis can play an important role in clearing away conceptual underbrush and question-begging presuppositions, but it cannot take the place of detailed consideration of historical and contemporary evidence. Robert Larmer demonstrates that the proper role of philosophy, as regards to the belief in miracles, is to provide an in-principle rejection of in-principle arguments either for or against. The arguments contained in this book will be of particular interest to students and scholars of philosophy, theology, history, and religious studies, though it is written in a style accessible to anyone interested in a philosophical examination of belief in miracles.

A Remembrance of His Wonders
Author: David I. Shyovitz
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 0812293975
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
The twelfth and thirteenth centuries witnessed an explosion of Christian interest in the meaning and workings of the natural world—a "discovery of nature" that profoundly reshaped the intellectual currents and spiritual contours of European society—yet to all appearances, the Jews of medieval northern Europe (Ashkenaz) were oblivious to the shifts reshaping their surrounding culture. Scholars have long assumed that rather than exploring or contemplating the natural world, the Jews of medieval Ashkenaz were preoccupied solely with the supernatural and otherworldly: magic and mysticism, demonology and divination, as well as the zombies, werewolves, dragons, flying camels, and other monstrous and wondrous creatures that destabilized any pretense of a consistent and encompassing natural order. In A Remembrance of His Wonders, David I. Shyovitz disputes this long-standing and far-reaching consensus. Analyzing a wide array of neglected Ashkenazic writings on the natural world in general, and the human body in particular, Shyovitz shows how Jews in Ashkenaz integrated regnant scientific, magical, and mystical currents into a sophisticated exploration of the boundaries between nature and the supernatural. Ashkenazic beliefs and practices that have often been seen as signs of credulity and superstition in fact mirrored—and drew upon—contemporaneous Christian debates over the relationship between God and the natural world. In charting these parallels between Jewish and Christian thought, Shyovitz focuses especially upon the mediating role of polemical texts and encounters that served as mechanisms for the transmission of religious doctrines, scientific facts, and cultural mores. Medieval Jews' preoccupation with the apparently "supernatural" reflected neither ignorance nor intellectual isolation but rather a determined effort to understand nature's inner workings and outer limits and to integrate and interrogate the theologies and ideologies of the broader European Christian society.
