THE CONFESSING CHURCH --CONCLUSION --TIMELINE FOR THE HISTORY OF CALVINISM --NOTES --FURTHER READING --INDEXThis briskly told history of Reformed Protestantism takes these churches through their entire 500-year history-from sixteenth-century Zurich and Geneva to modern locations as far flung as Seoul and São Paulo. D. G. Hart explores specifically the social and political developments that enabled Calvinism to establish a global presence. Hart's approach features significant episodes in the institutional history of Calvinism that are responsible for its contemporary profile. He traces the political and religious circumstances that first created space for Reformed churches in Europe and later contributed to Calvinism's expansion around the world. He discusses the effects of the American and French Revolutions on ecclesiastical establishments as well as nineteenth- and twentieth-century communions, particularly in Scotland, the Netherlands, the United States, and Germany, that directly challenged church dependence on the state. Raising important questions about secularization, religious freedom, privatization of faith, and the place of religion in public life, this book will appeal not only to readers with interests in the history of religion but also in the role of religion in political and social life today.Reformed ChurchHistoryCalvinismHistoryElectronic books.Reformed ChurchHistory.CalvinismHistory.284/.209Hart D.

Renowned scientists Lorenzo Farina and Sergio Rinaldi introduce readers to the world of positive linear systems in their rigorous but highly accessible book, rich in applications, examples, and figures.This professional reference is divided into three main parts: The first part contains the definitions and basic properties of pPure and Applied Mathematics: A Wiley Series of Texts, Monographs and TractsPositive systemsNon-negative matricesLinear systemsPositive systems.Non-negative matrices.Linear systems.003.74512.9512.9434Farina Lorenzo1963-9304Rinaldi S(Sergio),1940-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910830516703321Positive linear systems2230601UNINA
