Extreme Tactical Leadership
Explores the experiences of twelve battalion commanders, revealing the leadership skills and principles required to succeed in extreme combat environments. Combat is extreme leadership, requiring the utmost of an organizational leader. Complex combat operations require competent and confident leaders, and while combat constantly evolves with technological advances, the requirement for combat leaders remains. A battalion—comprising a headquarters and multiple companies or batteries—is the backbone of tactical combat operations. The position of battalion commander exemplifies organizational leadership—a combination of personal leadership and resource management. Commanding such a unit in...
Journeying in the Wilderness
In Journeying in the Wilderness, author Terri Martinson Elton observes that faith formation in the church setting is contextual, and multiple forces are coming together today to create seismic contextual changes at record speed. These changes are disrupting aspects of our lives, challenging assumptions, and dislodging personal and communal practices. For the church to take seriously its call to form faith in each generation, it must be attentive to current contextual realities. Elton places confessional understanding of faith in dialogue with five contextually altering forces in order to provide a pathway for congregations to reimagine faith formation in the midst of twenty-first-century realities. The use of stories, nontechnical language, and biblical perspectives make this work accessible for congregational leaders and others who seek to explore new directions in forming faith. Processes and practices are offered to help both leaders and congregations contextualize their approach to their particular settings. Each chapter includes leadership competencies, shared practices, and group discussion questions.
Hosted by God
It is common to experience moments when we feel discouraged, confused, or plain angry at the circumstances of our lives. What if these moments are gifts meant to awaken us to something deeper and better than our own machinations? Instead of stuffing away these uncomfortable emotions and ploughing on, we can embrace a new approach to living: one where God graciously hosts us through life’s ebbs and flows towards wholeness and flourishing. Through pastoral insight, authentic testimonies, a fresh look at popular scriptural stories, poetry, and reflection questions, Jenni Ho-Huan invites us to ponder and posture ourselves to really live, with a new paradigm: it is God’s gracious hospitality that undergirds all of life, and he calls us to partner him to create better communities of love and grace.

Cancer Immunology
This book focusing on the immunopathology of cancers is published as part of the three-volume Springer series Cancer Immunology, which aims to provide an up-to-date, clinically relevant review of cancer immunology and immunotherapy. Readers will find detailed descriptions of the interactions between cancerous cells and various components of the innate and adaptive immune system. The principal focus, however, is very much on clinical aspects, the aim being to educate clinicians in the clinical implications of the latest research and novel developments in the field. In the new edition of this very well received book, first published in 2015, the original chapters have been significantly updated and additional chapters included on, for example, current knowledge on the roles of T-helper cells and NK cells in tumor immunity, the part played by oncoviruses in the development of various cancers, and the applications of fluorescent in situ hybridization, bioluminescence, and cancer molecular and functional imaging. Cancer Immunology: A Translational Medicine Context will be of special value to clinical immunologists, hematologists, and oncologists.
