In addition to well-known texts such as Aristotle's Poetics, Horace's Art of Poetry, and Longinus's On Sublimity, the book includes complete versions of Aristotle's Rhetoric Book...

The study of apocalyptic has been David Russell's life-work, and over the years, with the discovery of new material and ongoing study, he has reassessed his earlier interpretation in a number of respects. This new book, written with all the freshness that made his Between the Testaments a classic which is still widely read today, provides a short but comprehensive guide to the latest state of research into apocalyptic. After identifying and re...

`The whole book may be most warmly recommended to all who desire something more informative than a blank page between the Old Testament and the New.' Church Times `The discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls has focussed attention afresh on this period, and Principal Russell's up-to-date review of it is both opportune and welcome. He writes out of a deep knowledge of his subiect, and his book, which is a model of compression, is clearly written an...

D. C. Russell's fanaticism with cinema, especially the horror genre, fuelled in part by studying Film Studies in London, England, is a passion that, when coupled with a great interest in psychoanalysis, has led to a creative outlet. D. C. Russell has written an array of stories, the first being the horror/thriller Ned's Prey, whereby the story factors in some psychological theories underneath its tale and hopes to create in reading something o...

Moving mesh methods are an effective, mesh-adaptation-based approach for the numerical solution of mathematical models of physical phenomena. Currently there exist three main strategies for mesh adaptation, namely, to use mesh subdivision,   local high order approximation (sometimes combined with mesh subdivision), and mesh movement. The latter type of adaptive mesh method has been less well studied, both computationally and theoretically. Thi...

This 1989 book provides an introduction to the immensely important area of computer networking.

A marked characteristic of Judaism in the centuries surrounding the time of Jesus was its `pseudepigraphical' writing, books which did not bear the name of their actual author but were attributed to figures from the past, particularly patriarchs and prophets. In this book Dr Russell shows the developments in the understanding of the character and function of these figures as they appear from the pseudepigrapha. He begins by looking at develop...

Twenty-five years ago, Dr Russell wrote Between the Testaments. Warmly welcomed by reviewers and readers alike, it soon became established as an individual introduction to the period from Malachi to Matthew, and has since been reprinted nine times. Now it is joined by this second volume, in the same format, examining topics which might have been dealt with in the first volume but were not. Its aim is to complement and supplement what was writt...

If it ain't one thing it's another" was a catchy phrase I often heard growing up. At the time, I didn't give it much thought, except that I heard it a lot. But fast forward a few decades, and I get it, in life, there's always going to be something! I recently heard a pastor say as he delivered the eulogy for a young man who had battled addiction most of his life: "We all have issues. And if you are sitting out there in your pew thinking that y...
