What does the Bible really tell us about the heavenly host? Everyone knows that angels have wings, usually carry harps, and that each of us has our own personal guardian angel, right? We all have some preconceptions about angels from movies, television shows, and other media, but you might be surprised to know that a lot of those notions aren't based on anything from the Bible. If you read Luke 1:26-38 and imagine the angel Gabriel standing before Mary with neatly folded white wings, you're not getting that picture from anything the Bible itself says. What the Bible really says about angels is overlooked or filtered through popular myths. This book was written to help change that. It's a book about the loyal members of God's heavenly host, and while most people associate them with the word angel, that's just one of many terms the Bible uses for supernatural beings. In The Unseen Realm, Michael Heiser opened the eyes of thousands to seeing the Bible through the s...

Ist das, was wir sehen, fühlen und anfassen können, alles, was unsere Realität ausmacht? Oder gibt es vielleicht eine viel größere, allumfassende Realität, deren Teil wir sind? Im erweiterten Bewusstseinszustand einer tiefen, hypnotischen Trance erlebt Manfred Schneider den direkten Kontakt zu seinem Unterbewusstsein. Hier eröffnen sich ihm die Dimensionen seiner unendlichen Seele, Dimensionen, die er bewusst nie für möglich gehalten hätte. Er fühlt, dass er als individuelle Seele vollständig angenommen, vollständig geliebt und mit allem verbunden ist. Er weiß, dass sein Unterbewusstsein aus dieser Verbindung heraus die Realität des Lebens lenkt und dass es diese jederzeit ändern kann. Fasziniert und tief bewegt von dem, was er während der Hypnose erlebt hat und fasziniert davon, dass sich seine zuvor erdrückenden Probleme vollständig aufgelöst haben, bittet er um verständliche Erklärungen hierfür. Diese werden ihm auf Basis der neuesten Erkenntnisse der Physik, der Sterbeforschung und...

Henrik Fexeus uses his expert psychology knowledge to teach the reader how to hone their social skills, perfect for fans of Dale Carnegie. Research has increasingly shown that nonverbal communication prowess is absolutely essential in seemingly unrelated areas of our lives (investment decisions, salary levels, etc.). However, as our society becomes more modernised and we incorporate new forms of technology into our daily interactions, we are becoming less and less capable of understanding one another as we should. In The Art of Social Excellence, Henrik Fexeus combines his own expert knowledge as a mentalist with psychology studies to create a complete guide to social interaction. He covers it all: from overcoming your conversational fears in a large group of people, to excelling in the workplace, to winning an argument with your partner. He breaks down various rhetorical strategies in detail and provides helpful steps and checklists for the reader to check their progress in a social e...

Software is everywhere today, but countless software products and projects die a slow death without ever making any impact. The result is a tremendous amount of time and money wasted due to wrong assumptions, lack of focus, poor communication of objectives, lack of understanding and misalignment with overall goals.

This handbook is a practical guide to impact mapping, a simple yet incredibly effective method for collaborative strategic planning that helps organisations make an impact with software.

El "Neolítico" en la Península Ibérica ha sido estudiado de forma tradicional desde un enfoque historicista que a partir de los años setenta se ha pretendido sustituir por los presupuestos téoricos-metodológicos de la Nueva Arqueología. Sin embargo, el incremento de los datos no ha ido acompañado sustancialmente por un cambio cualitativo sobre el conocimiento que podamos tener acerca del desarrollo de las primeras comunidades agrícolas-ganaderas y sus procesos de cambio. En la región Sureste de la Península Ibérica, el mayor protagonismo en la Prehistoria ha estado centrado en las llamadas "Cultura de Los Millares" y "Cultura de El Argar". Tan sólo contamos con una mayor información del "Neolítico" en su fase final, la llamada "Cultura de Almería", de la que aún no se ha concretado su significado y contenido, debido a la aceptación general de tales "culturas" u "horizontes". Dada la importancia del Sureste peninsul...

Technology has long been an essential consideration in public discussions of the environment, with the focus overwhelmingly on creating new tools and techniques. In more recent years, however, activists, researchers, and policymakers have increasingly turned to mobilizing older technologies in their pursuit of sustainability. In fascinating case studies ranging from the Early Modern secondhand trade to utopian visions of human-powered vehicles, the contributions gathered here explore the historical fortunes of two such technologies-bicycling and waste recycling-tracing their development over time and providing valuable context for the policy successes and failures of today.

Kein anderes Unternehmen spiegelt das Wirtschaftswunder nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg besser wider als Volkswagen. Mit dem internationalen Erfolg des legendären VW Käfer begann der Aufstieg der Bundesrepublik zum Exportweltmeister. Doch der von Ingenieur Ferdinand Porsche im Auftrag Hitlers im Niemandsland zwischen Hannover und Berlin angesiedelte Autobauer durchlief extreme Höhen und Tiefen: In den 1970ern, den 1990ern, den frühen 2000er-Jahren war die wirtschaftliche Lage des Wolfsburger Konzerns bedrohlich - und sie ist es auch jetzt wieder. Sein Wohl und Wehe spiegelte sich stets in der Politik, mit der er aufs Engste verflochten ist. Kann das Unternehmen mit seinem erzpatriarchalischen Fundament den nötigen radikalen Wandel vollziehen? Mark C. Schneider gibt einen tiefen Einblick in die Entwicklung und Kultur des Autokonzerns und zeigt, wie viel auf dem Spiel steht: für Volkswagen, Mitarbeiter, Aktionäre und Deutschland. Product...
