"THE HEAVENS ARE TELLING THE GLORY OF GOD; AND THE FIRMAMENT PROCLAIMS HIS HANDIWORK."-Psalm 19:1

Few of us can venture outside on a clear, dark night and not pause for a silent, reflective look at the stars. For countless centuries people have felt a sense of wonder about the heavens. How did our universe come into being? Has it always been here? Is our existence due to random chance or supernatural design? Is God "out there"? If so, what is He like?

Traditionally, the church has answered such questions with Scripture, while science has contributed theories and formulas of its own. Torn between a deep respect for church doctrines and an intellectual need for answers that support what their senses are telling them, many Christians have avoided such discussions altogether.

Actually, the two sides are no longer that far apart. In The Creator and the Cosmos, astrophysicist Dr. Hugh Ross explains how recent scientific measurements of the universe have clearly pointed to the existence of God. Whether you're looking for scientific support for your faith or new reasons to believe, The Creator and the Cosmos will enable you to see the Creator for yourself.

"A compelling summary of scientific evidence that supports belief in God and the Word of God, written on a level even the non-technically trained lay person can understand."-Walter L. Bradley, professor and head of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University

"In The Creator and the Cosmos, Dr. Hugh Ross shows how recent cosmological discoveries clearly indicate the universe was created with many characteristics fine-tuned for our life. Though many scientists may resist the logical conclusion, the Creator implied by the scientific evidence is exactly consistent with the God revealed in the Bible."-Dr. Kyle M. Cudworth, Yerkes Observatory, University of Chicago

"The Creator and the Cosmos constitutes a remarkable journey through the most recent scientific findings, providing overwhelming support for design in our universe. Dr. Ross has documented the evidence for design in our universe in such a thorough yet readable style that it will prove to be of great value both to the science student as well as to the interested layperson."-Dr. David H. Rogstad, physicist, Caltech Jet Propulsion Laboratory TABLE OF CONTENTS: Chapter 1: The Awe-Inspiring Night Sky Chapter 2: My Skeptical Inquiry Chapter 3: The Discovery of the Century Chapter 4: The Matter Mystery Chapter 5: The Beautiful Fit Chapter 6: Einstein's Challenge Chapter 7: Closing Loopholes-Round One Chapter 8: Closing Loopholes-Round Two Chapter 9: Science Discovers Time Before Time Chapter 10: A God Outside of Time, But Knowable Chapter 11: A Brief Look at A Brief History of Time Chapter 12: A Modern-Day Goliath Chapter 13: The Divine Watchmaker Chapter 14: A "Just Right" Universe Chapter 15: Earth-The Place for Life Chapter 16: Building Life Chapter 17: Extra-Dimensional Power Chapter 18: The Point

"...highly recommended is Craig Ward's POPULAR LIES ABOUT GRAPHIC DESIGN (9788415391357, $16.95), which comes from an award-winning designer who identifies and refutes popular lies in the field of graphic design.

"Graphic design is steeped in rules both good and bad. In this brilliant book, Craig Ward discusses how and why these popular myths came to be.

Let's make some great art (Paperback) has "Design"

As a child I had a old fashioned activity book or two, which I loved. My favorite was a 1960s from my mother to me. It employs me on many, many days. The best part of this book was that a few of the fun had activities a component, to leave a lasting lesson. I gained knowledge from some of the activities that I still keep. But most of the activities were trade-oriented, which should be only time fillers.

Fast forward to the discovery of this wonderful, well thought-out book by Marion Deuchars, time to fill and fill the minds of adults and children.

From the outset, this beautifully packaged book invites casual browser, parents and children have lots of fun and learn a lot.

The book the greatest appeal is in its ability to deliver. Deuchars like recognizable and highly valued artistic style (I learned as an important artist in her own right), this book presents itself as a simple, consumables and accessible, but we has a depth and quality benefit but still we can not determine. In other words, not almost knowing that we learn things are, because it's so much fun. Here is the most famous and important artists and art to meet as usual a big serving of healthy veggies hidden in a meal, to devour the children. In the same way that we learn to vegetables than adults enjoy, have children know the potential of this great art to appreciate.

Also encourages children in many ways to be creative. I think that is great and I imagine childhood bedrooms, desks of the parents, and the occasional refrigerator large galleries for this book. Schön.

I have given the book, a niece and my nephew, but not after a lot involved in the pages.

Geometrical Design Coloring Book (Dover Design Coloring Books) (Paperback) newly tagged "design"

AppId is over the quota
AppId is over the quota
This book doesn't offer many design variations & is too simplistic for my tastes. While a few were great optical illusion type (and therefore almost worth the price), there are less than 5 complex designs, the rest are exact repeats with slightly different sized elements, angles, or another simple element added. Boring for those who want a challenge & dislike repeating same theme/concept/design. For no-brainer type meditations where you don't want to focus too much on demands of the design, it would be good, as well as for beginners or those intimidated with too many choices. Of course, some will say there aren't many options for variety because of the geometric theme's limits--but the same could be said for mandala adult coloring books, yet there are an unlimited number of designs & levels of challenge in all the mandala books, that is not found in any of the geometric ones, so far.

The designs were decent quality paper & lines, not best nor worst. See my other mandala/coloring book reviews for more details on the best choices from the 8 sampled (bought & still use). I especially recommend "Power Mandalas" (BEST of all offerings here), but NOT "Classic Mandalas" (low quality design, simple & boring).

HINT: Photocopy, scan & print, or trace each page-design onto good quality craft, watercolor and/or acid-free paper, because you WILL want to frame ALL of your completed work/designs in "Power Mandalas" and still be able to go back & re-do certain ones repeatedly :-) This same hint applies to all of the adult coloring books.
Have fun!

Presentation Patterns: Techniques for Crafting Better Presentations (Paperback) newly tagged "design"

AppId is over the quota
AppId is over the quota

Presentation Patterns is the first book on presentations that categorizes and organizes the building blocks (or patterns) that you’ll need to communicate effectively using presentation tools like Keynote and PowerPoint.

Patterns are like the lower-level steps found inside recipes; they are the techniques you must master to be considered a master chef or master presenter. You can use the patterns in this book to construct your own recipes for different contexts, such as business meetings, technical demonstrations, scientific expositions, and keynotes, just to name a few.

Although there are no such things as antirecipes, this book shows you lots of antipatterns—things you should avoid doing in presentations. Modern presentation tools often encourage ineffective presentation techniques, but this book shows you how to avoid them.

Each pattern is introduced with a memorable name, a definition, and a brief explanation of motivation. Readers learn where the pattern applies, the consequences of applying it, and how to apply it. The authors also identify critical antipatterns: clichés, fallacies, and design mistakes that cause presentations to disappoint. These problems are easy to avoid—once you know how.

Presentation Patterns will help you

Plan what you’ll say, who you’ll say it to, how long you’ll talk, and where you’ll presentPerfectly calibrate your presentation to your audienceUse the storyteller’s “narrative arc” to full advantageStrengthen your credibility—and avoid mistakes that hurt itHone your message before you ever touch presentation softwareIncorporate visuals that support your message instead of hindering itCreate highly effective “infodecks” that work when you’re not able to deliver a talk in personConstruct slides that really communicate and avoid “Ant Fonts,” “Floodmarks,” “Alienating Artifacts,” and other errorsMaster 13 powerful techniques for delivering your presentation with power, authority, and clarity 

Whether you use this book as a handy reference or read it from start to finish, it will be a revelation: an entirely new language for systematically planning, creating, and delivering more powerful presentations. You’ll quickly find it indispensable—no matter what you’re presenting, who your audiences are, or what message you’re driving home.
