Moderne Algebra is a two-volume German textbook on graduate abstract algebra by Bartel Leendert van der Waerden (1930, 1931), originally based on lectures given by Emil Artin in 1926 and by Emmy Noether (1929) from 1924 to 1928. The English translation of 1949–1950 had the title Modern algebra, though a later extensively revised edition in 1970 had the title Algebra. The book was one of the first textbooks to use an abstract axiomatic approach to groups, rings, and fields, and was by far the most successful, becoming the standard reference for graduate algebra for several decades. It "had a tremendous impact, and is widely considered to be the major text on algebra in the twentieth century"[1] There is a detailed discussion of the sources used for writing the book in van der Waerden (1975).

"She rubbed her arms – goose pimples. She stroked her long hair, fingering the ringlets and stared at her sandals; a slight girl, slender brown in a fine white garment that reached her ankles. Gold rings on her fingers and a bracelet of elephant hair. Around her neck a broad necklace of lapsis lazuli. What had she done? How had she offended the Pharoah? His was absolute power. This was his, the land of Egypt, the crops, the labourers, the priests and scribes, the royal wives and the royal concubines" Plus the story of The Golden Fish, a story from India of magic and the soul out of the body. Retold from the Golden Bough. [more]

"ENNEAS - Hero Quest" was extracted from the book ENNEAS (Subtitle: Das Enneagramm Gurdjieffs - Sein universales systemisches Prozessmodell.) and deals with the Hero's Journey in combination with the Enneagram. This fusion of Gurdjieff's Enneagram with Joseph Campbell's "Hero's Journey", contains the key to designing your own development and transformation processes. Thus the Enneagram becomes a practical instrument of thinking, learning and personal inner growth. On a "more secular" level, the logic of the Enneagram, combined with the archetypal Hero's Journey, provides novels in particular with a solid foundation for an exciting narrative structure used in such successful films as Star Wars, The Lion King and The Lord of the Rings.

Vor McQuade lagen etwa hundertzwanzig Meilen durch die Felswüste; und er musste von sich und seinem Pferd das Letzte fordern, um zu verhindern, dass eine Truppe Freiwilliger, die der Tucson-Ring zusammenstellte, zu einem blutigen Rachefeldzug in die Gebiete der Chiricahuas zog. Hinter dem Kopfgeldjäger lag ein mörderischer Kampf gegen vier Coltschwinger des Tucson-Rings. Er und Gray Wolf hatten das höllische Quartett auf zwei Mann reduziert, die jedoch beide verwundet und außer Gefecht gesetzt waren. Tausend Strapazen und Entbehrungen erwarteten McQuade; Hitze, Staub, Klapperschlangen, Skorpione und – Apachen. Wenn er es nicht schaffte, war sicherlich ein brutales Gemetzel die Folge, das vielen Weißen und Roten den Tod bringen und neuem Hass Nahrung geben würde. Cover: STEVE MAYER [more]

The priestly breastplate (Hebrew: חֹשֶׁן Hoshen/Choshen) was a sacred breastplate worn by the High Priest of the Israelites, according to the Book of Exodus. In the biblical account, the breastplate is sometimes termed the breastplate of judgement, because the Urim and Thummim, which were used in divination, were placed within it. Hebrew Bible According to the description in Exodus, this breastplate was attached to the ephod by gold chains/cords tied to the gold rings on the ephod's shoulder straps, and by blue ribbon tied to the gold rings at the lower parts of the ephod (Exodus 28:15-19). The biblical description states that the breastplate was also to be made from the same material as the Ephod - embroidered linen - and was to be a square, a cubit in width, two layers thick, and with four rows of three engraved gems each embedded upon it, each jewel being framed in gold. The description states that the square breastplate was to be formed from two equal rectangular pieces of cloth - suggesting that its appearance was similar to a backless waistcoat, with a pouch inside to contain the Urim and Thummim. The term for the breastplate, hoshen, appears to be connected either to its function or to its appearance; some scholars think that it is probably derived from Hebrew hasuna, meaning "beautiful," while others think that it is more likely to derive from Hebrew sinus, meaning "a fold for containing something." According to the Talmud, the wearing of the Hoshen atoned for the sin of errors in judgement on the part of the Children of Israel (B.Zevachim 88b). [more]
