Designed for those undertaking research for the first time, the second edition of The Researcher's Toolkit is a practical and accessible guide for all those partaking in small-scale research. Jargon-free, it covers the entire research process, from defining a research topic or question through to its completion.
Ecology is the science of ecosystems, of habitats, of our world and its future. In the latest New Naturalist, ecologist David M. Wilkinson explains key ideas of this crucial branch of science, using Britain's ecosystems to illustrate each point.
Hutchings and Wilkinson explain the key elements of Stephen Hawking's physical and mathematical theories, consider their philosophical and religious implications, and relate his ideas to traditional Judaeo-Christian concepts of God.
Part of Birlinn's series of Scottish Historical Guides, Dr. Caldwell's book draws on a great deal of primary research and local knowledge to create a detailed account of the history of these relic strewn Hebridean Islands. Essential reading for local and tourist alike.
"Creation by God is perhaps the most fundamental message of the Bible. Human beings have always been faced with the question of why anything exists at all. This theme of creation is found not only in the early chapters of Genesis, but runs throughout the Bible." "David Wilkinson captures something of the rich tapestry of creation as disclosed in the pages of Scripture. With the eyes of a theologian and a cosmologist he looks at the message of creation in representative biblical passages. He brings the texts into lively conversation with contemporary concerns. In particular, he explores the beginning, the songs, the fulfilment, the lessons and the Lord of creation."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
