This man had remained on the same spot helpless, hopeless, abandoned, rejected, impotent and unforgiven for 38 years! (That was even before Jesus was born). He had no man to help him. He stayed by the well of blessings and miracles for 38 years, yet all was not well with him. Many knew he had an ugly past. Some had forgotten about him. Most never knew who he was. To his family, he has been forgotten. To the society, he was no longer relevant. The Bible even never mentioned his name. But one day, Jesus was going to the Temple and stopped by to attend to him. He did not even know Jesus. Why would Jesus stop because of a man who had an ugly past? Why would Jesus stop because of such a man who never have faith to be healed nor ever knew Jesus? Why would Jesus stop because of a man who is unforgiving and unforgiven? Jesus stopped and asked this man a simple but heart-searching question: "DO YOU WANT TO GET WELL?" This book is specially written for three reasons. • To find peace in God's forgiveness • To find peace in forgiving others • To find peace in forgiving yourself The healing begins when the silence is broken. "DO YOU WANT TO GET WELL?"
This book introduces the near crisis phase of conflict and escalation. These time-sensitive disputes between states, and even with violent non-state actors, do not involve significant risk of military escalation, at least in the moment. Investigating how and why some near crises escalate, while others do not, requires an explanation of the different dynamics of international disputes and the policy tools that states and international institutions can employ. We ask an expanded set of questions about specific cases and general patterns of conflict behavior, such as: why did Israeli leaders respond to Hezbollah’s 2006 cross-border raid with escalation, resulting in the Second Lebanon War, wh...
Seconds to Midnight is a concise history of nuclear weapons, tracing their development from the scientific breakthroughs of the 1930s to the Cold War arms race between East and West, and on to today’s nuclear hotspots in India, North Korea, Taiwan, and Iran. The book also explores efforts to contain this danger through international treaties, scientific advocacy, and public protest movements—responses to what remains one of the most serious threats to global security and human survival. By providing essential context, the book helps readers understand the urgency of today’s nuclear dilemmas.
Julian P. Perry Robinson (1941-2020) made a unique contribution to protecting the world from the misuse of chemistry and biology. A trained chemist and patent lawyer, he applied his specialist knowledge to better understand the nature of chemical and biological warfare (CBW) and how best to prevent this. He pioneered open source methods that enabled him to engage with, and inform, national and international policy making, working across the natural and social sciences, and with diverse sectors, including governments, international organizations, and non-governmental research, advocacy and trade groups. His influence can be seen in the achievement and implementation of the Biological Weapons Convention and Chemical Weapons Convention, and in his influence on CBW scholarship. This book details his life and work through chapters by people that knew him best – his widow, a close colleague, his son, and a dear friend – alongside reprints of a selection of his publications chosen by his research partners, family and friends, and a bibliography of his CBW writings.
The impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) are often framed as an uncontrollable wave of technological change. But AI's trajectory is not preordained—its governance is a human choice, one that hinges on global institutions that are effective, coherent, and resilient to AI's own disruptions. As AI systems grow more powerful, states and international institutions today face mounting pressure to address their impacts. How can they govern this changing technology, in a rapidly changing world, using tools that may themselves be altered by AI? Architectures of Global AI Governance provides the conceptual and practical tools to tackle this question. Drawing from technology law, global governance...
