The path to heaven runs through Israel is the first part of a trilogy that tells the life of seven generations of a Jewish family that, in the midst of joys and sadness, gets closer to Eretz Israel, to fulfill the dream of return to the land that God bequeathed them four thousand years ago.The characters are ordinary beings, whose lives take place in Eastern Europe, especially in the former Russian Empire, where discrimination against Jews was more accentuated than in other latitud...

God’s Fingerprints is a story of fulfilled promises and the unlimited reach of God in our lives. Dive deep into the incredible testimony of Alfonso Gomez, a pastor’s son. When he was five years old his father had a vision of Alfonso all grown up and preaching in Colombia South America. As Alfonso grew up in the central valley of California this vision seemed further away from ever becoming a reality. With a dark cloud coming over his generation with gangs, drugs, and alcohol, he doubted he...

Public Economics: A Concise Introduction provides a concise and non-technical overview of the role of government in the economy.Using the questions ‘why?’, ‘what for?’ and ‘how?’, the text initially surveys the place of the public sector in a market economy. It then considers the possible reasons which could justify government involvement. Next, the book examines the aims of state economic activity, and the instruments which a government has at its disposal. Lastly, the fi...

This introduction to cryptography employs a programming-oriented approach to study the most important cryptographic schemes in current use and the main cryptanalytic attacks against them. Discussion of the theoretical aspects, emphasizing precise security definitions based on methodological tools such as complexity and randomness, and of the mathematical aspects, with emphasis on number-theoretic algorithms and their applications to cryptography and cryptanalysis, is integrated with the pr...

This edited volume focuses on the host-guest chemistry of organic molecules and inorganic systems during synthesis (structure-direction). Organic molecules have been used for many years in the synthesis of zeolitic nanoporous frameworks. The addition of these organic molecules to the zeolite synthesis mixtures provokes a particular ordering of the inorganic units around them that directs the crystallization pathway towards a particular framework type; hence they are called structure-direct...
