Developments in Hydraulic Conductivity Research
by Oagile Dikinya

This book provides the state of the art of the investigation and the in-depth analysis of hydraulic conductivity from the theoretical to semi-empirical models perspective as well as policy development associated with management of land resources emanating from drainage-problem soils.

How To Write A Great Query Letter

How To Write A Great Query Letter
by Noah Lukeman

Many books have been written about the query letter. But few have been written by literary agents, who receive thousands of queries each year and who grapple with them on a daily basis.

New York literary agent Noah Lukeman, President of Lukeman Literary Management Ltd and author of three critically-acclaimed books on the craft of writing, has read thousands of query letters during his years as a literary agent. In this book, he offers his insights on the query letter, sharing an insider’s perspective, giving insights and practical tips about what works and what doesn’

Thy Will Be Done: Sickness, Faith, and the God Who Heals

Thy Will Be Done: Sickness, Faith, and the God Who Heals
by Johann Christoph Blumhardt, and Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt

In a world where medical advances seem to promise cures for everything, its tempting to believe that we can live free of pain. But we know that even the best medicine cannot forestall death and decay, or solve the riddles of mental and emotional illness. All of us will get sick, and all of us will die.How, then, to respond to the inevitability of suffering? And how to help those who live in fear of disease; people who spend their waking hours worrying about what the doctor said, or asking God to remove real or perceived burdens? With childlike confidence in the possibility of miracles and a deep trust that the Creator is supremely wise and good, the Blumhardts point us away from our woes and to Jesus. As the Great Physician, he offers lasting comfort and healing without cost. And even in the face of agonizing death, Jesus lifts us out of our misery and restores our souls by offering the peace that passes all
