This book introduces a method for modeling engineered systems to persons with a background in mathematics but little or no experience in engineering or physics. The idea emerged from a graduate course that the author taught in the mathematics department at the University of Memphis. Using the method presented here, his mathematics students finished the semester being able to look at an engineering diagram and write its governing equations. The importance of teaching mathematics students the essentials of systems modeling was highlighted in a Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) Review letter by Ulrich Rude, Karen Willcox, Lois Curfman McInnes, and Hans De Sterck (Research and Education in Computational Science and Engineering, SIAM Review, vol. 60, no. 3, pgs. 707754, 2018). They argue that undergraduate and graduate education in mathematics must include "simulation and modeling, including physics-based models". This book meets that requirement with a modeling method that can be grasped in its essentials as a set of rules for constructing graphs. Once the essentials are firmly in hand, you will learn how the physical interpretation of a graph allows these rules to be translated into specific engineering domains: electrical and hydraulic circuits, translating and rotating planar mechanical systems, and models that are a mixture of these domains.

In a world governed by algorithms and cold logic, faith has become a relic. But on the frozen, wind-swept cliffs of Yorkshire, within the ancient walls of Whitby Abbey, an event is about to unfold that will shatter the foundations of both science and belief.What if the Second Coming was not foretold in the clouds, but coded into a machine?Prepare to enter a world where humanitys oldest hope is reborn in its newest creation.

Based on existing research results both domestically and internationally, this book investigates the laws of variation in blasting vibration, as well as the propagation patterns and characteristics of blasting seismic waves. By dividing blasting areas into near and far zones, the study examines the laws governing blasting vibration frequency variations in rock masses based on numerical calculations and analyses of the maximum and minimum values of blasting vibration velocity. For blasting vibration fields with undesirable inclusions, it conducts a comparative analysis of blasting vibration velocity and displacement through simulation calculations and provides engineering verification. For presplitting blasting vibration in rock masses under joint conditions, it conducts modeling and simulation calculations on presplitting blasting with different angle joint structures and draws conclusions of production guidance significance. The research process and results have considerable practical value and can provide important guidance for the design and implementation of engineering blasting.

What if the greatest illusion in human history wasnt political, scientific, or religiousbut geometric?For centuries, the world was taught to trust fixed shapes, equal sides, and rigid forms as the foundation of truth. From Euclids symmetry to Newtons clockwork universe, an entire civilization was built on the belief that order requires centralization, stability requires sameness, and reality must conform to perfect, unchanging structure.But nothing in the living universe obeys this lie.Life bends. Space curves. Fields breathe.And humanity is awakening to a deeper geometryone that has been hidden in plain sight.The Geometry of a Lie reveals how the old world was shaped by mechanical thinking and how that mental architecture became politics, empire, identity, and global unipolarity. It shows how biology, consciousness, ecosystems, and cosmic structure all reject rigid formsand how the multipolar reality emerging today is not chaos, but coherence returning.In this groundbreaking, smooth-flowing exploration, Michael A. Dente takes the reader through:The hidden psychology of Euclids symmetryNewtons geometry of domination and the rise of unipolar powerTopology, fractals, and the elastic nature of realityThe biology of decentralization and why life refuses central controlThe collapse of the old center and the rise of a multipolar worldThe emergence of the multipolar humanan identity built on elasticity, not rigidityThis is not a book about math.It is a book about how geometry shaped humanitys mind, how that mind created a rigid world, and why that world is finally dissolving into something more organic, more coherent, and more alive.A universe that once seemed mechanical now reveals itself as a fielda living topology of many centers, many intelligences, many ways of being.The Geometry of a Lie is a guide to understanding that transformationand a map into the new consciousness rising.

Some stories begin with a meeting.Theirs began before birth.He has lived with a quiet echo in his chest for as long as he can remember a subtle pull toward a presence he cannot name. Not longing, not fantasy, but memory. A memory that feels older than his life, older than this world.She has lived her days in motion, running from a loneliness she cant explain. Until a strangers presence stops her in her tracks, awakening something she thought shed buried long ago.When they meet, time holds its breath.Their connection is not sudden infatuation nor whimsical fate. It is deeper. Older. A quiet recognition that feels like stepping into a room both have visited in dreams.As their evenings unfold through soft confessions, trembling truths, and a gentleness neither expected a hidden metaphysical truth begins to surface:They did not meet for the first time.They remembered.Set in a world where Archiviam the library of pre-birth agreements pulses beneath ordinary life, this novel blends intimacy with spiritual depth, weaving a story of two souls crossing from fear into trust, from loneliness into connection, from memory into love.Tender, poetic, and quietly transformative, The One Who Remembered Me Before I Was Born is a love story about returning not to a person, but to the piece of yourself written before you took your first breath.

With new interviews with Bernadette Peters, Melissa Manchester, Christine Andreas, Michael Jay, Dean Pitchford and Lenora Nemetz, complete discographies and songographies, a detailed listing of his best songs, and chockful of rare photos, award-winning author Lawrence Schulman explores the life and career of the late singer-songwriter Peter Allen, whose music is the centerpiece of this groundbreaking work, which aims to put him in the Pantheon of American composers of the Great New American Songbook."For me, this book was a surprise and a discovery. I knew nothing about Peter Allen until I read it. For those who remember him, this book will enrich your knowledge of his origins, his songs and his public reception. For those for whom the name means nothing, Lawrence Schulman has come to the rescue with this brilliant account of a singular talent of the twentieth century. Reading it, I was completely absorbed. Singer, performer, extraordinary songwriter: Peter Allen was all three, but until now, he has never received the acclaim he deserves for his writing. Schulmans book sparkles, not just with facts but with personal anecdotes that move, sadden, and even thrill. Quotes from those who worked with Allen, from those who knew him but never did, as well as reflections on his homosexuality these details and more add a special intimacy to what could have been yet another nod to a bygone singer. Photographs of Allens childhood, family and friends, and performances complete the portrait. Bravo to Schulman for restoring this unique musical artist to life! This book is a treasure." JANE EVELYN ATWOOD, photographer"A significant contribution to the story and history of popular music that grips the reader." RICHARD ESTES, painter"Lawrence Schulman returns with skill, knowledge, creativity, and an analytical mind exhibited in his Judy Garland book to introduce us to another extraordinary singer, Peter Allen, whose phenomenal talent as a songwriter was equally unique." MELITA WESTERLUND, sculptor"Lawrence Schulman extends his depth of appreciation and knowledge to the vibrant songs and performances of the Australian singer-songwriter Peter Allen. With Schulman, we enter the realm of rich writing and insights--well known through his essays on Judy Garlandthat heighten the pleasure of listening to Allen, who died far too young." JUDITH GOLDSTEIN, founder of Humanity in ActionLAWRENCE SCHULMAN is the author of the 2-volume Garland: Thats Beyond Entertainment Reflections on Judy Garland (2023) and FREE: Words on Music by a Hi-Def Critic in an MP3 World (2024), both published by BearManor Media. Peter Allen: The Boy from Oz in the Key of Camp (2025) is his third work for BearManor and is based on his Fall 2023 ARSC Journal original article, which won the 2024 ARSC Journal Best Article Award. Author, music producer, critic and translator, Schulman translated from the French Bertrand Tessiers 2023 Garland biography Splendor and Downfall of a Legend and has translated for the French website OpusHD.net since 2007. He has written reviews and articles for the ARSC Journal since 1994 on everything from Frank Sinatra to Bernard Herrmann and has also produced countless CD boxsets and written the liner notes for most of them.

Wannabe Bible Prophecies: Revised and Expanded Second Edition argues that most of the so-called "prophecies" in the Bible were simply narratives written after the events, and Christian writers changed the story to fit and convince the faithful that the earlier Hebrew texts were fulfilled. This book aim is to analyze the problems in the interpretations of the biblical verses that have been changed, mistranslated, and reinterpreted to support new ideas that did not exist in the original writings. The reader will discover a lot about the creation of Virgin Birth story, how the "Suffering Servant" of Isaiah had been repurposed, and passages edited or reframed to appear as prophecy fulfilled. The book shows a very clear pattern of manipulation and the turning of "ordinary" scriptures into "prophecies," through cunning wording, selective quoting, and recycled myths.This is not an attack on anyones faith. It is an invitation to think critically and examine what the biblical authors actually wrote, what later editors changed, and how those changes shaped what millions believe today. It is an opportunity for believers and non believers alike, to engage with the biblical texts critically by examining the translations and interpretations within the text. The current edition, highlights and provides more examples and clear reasoning, which facilitate the understanding of what goes into the making of prophecy, showing how easily a mistakenly interpreted verse can become a "divine prediction."Readers of Wannabe Bible Prophecies will be convinced to cross-examine the proof, challenge the commonly accepted teachings, and trace back to the actual events the verses that have been cited for ages as the source of supernatural foresight. The truth will prevail over tradition.
