When it comes to serious Bible study a popular question is, "Where do I start?" Another questions is, "How can I understand my Bible?" This book is written to help answer these and other questions about how to effectively study the 66 books of the Holy Bible. In 13 lessons I have set forth the basic principles of Hermeneutics in an easy to understand language and format. Through a study and application of these principles your personal Bible study will become enjoyable and have more meaning. To gain maximum benefits from this book, I suggest that you study it in a class. It is designed to be studied by persons of all ages. Each chapter has numerous discussion questions and applications. I have taught this material in congregational classes, in Hermeneutic courses in Schools of Preaching, and Bible college classes. My prayer is that this book will help you to "Study to show yourself approved unto God" (2 Timothy 2:15, KJV).

Yes, this is another book on counseling. But before you dismiss it as just like all the rest, I assure you it is not. This book is designed to be a digest textbook for both the counselor and counselee. It covers the basic and essential facts both need to know. For those who desire to use it as a teaching and training text, I have included application exercises at the end of each of the 16 lessons. There are 7 cases studies for those who really want to apply what is taught. There are 3 major sections in the book covering the fundamentals of biblical counseling. There is no attempt or desire to present a worldly or secular approach to counseling. We want to know how would Jesus counsel in a given situation. The Bible is God's counseling manual; it "provides us with all things that pertain to life and godliness" (1 Peter 1:3). This book may also be used to counsel self with sound biblical principles. It would make a great study in a Bible class where members are desirous of learning some Bible ways to help others.

The Chemistry of Oxygen deals with the chemistry of oxygen and covers topics ranging from atoms and ions to oxides, water, and oxygen fluorides. Hydrogen peroxide, peroxides and related compounds, and ozone and related species are also discussed, along with other species containing O3 and O4 groups. This book is comprised of nine chapters and opens with a historical background on oxygen, including its discovery, as well as its properties, isotopes, occurrence and extraction, toxic effects, and production and uses. The next chapter is devoted to oxygen atoms and ions, with emphasis on the reactions of ionized species derived from oxygen atoms and molecules. The reader is then introduced to oxides and their acid-base character, structure, allotropy, thermodynamics, and geometrical effects; physical and chemical properties of water; chemical and physical properties of oxygen fluorides; and hydrogen peroxide, its properties, molecular structure, and uses. Subsequent chapters focus on peroxides and related compounds; ozone and related species; and other species containing O3 and O4 groups. This monograph will be a valuable source of information for inorganic chemists.
