There has never been a more important time for a study of the social, economic and political origins of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, three important world religions which share a common root. This book takes as its starting point the idea that gods, angels, miracles and other supernatural phenomena do not exist in the real world and therefore cannot explain the origins of these faiths. It looks instead at the material conditions at appropriate periods in antiquity and the social and economic forces at work, and it examines the historicity of key figures like Moses, Jesus and Mohammed. This is a unique book which draws on the research, knowledge and expertise of hundreds of historians, archaeologists and scholars, to create a synthesis that is completely coherent and at the same time is based on real-world social conditions. It is a book by a non-believer for other non-believers, and it will be a revelatory read, even to those already of an atheist, agnostic or secularist persuasion.

The Origins of Judaism, Christianity and Islam

FORMAT (Fortran Matrix Abstraction Technique) is a digital computer program system consisting of three distinct programs written entirely in Fortran IV. The system provides for generation, manipulating, printing, and plotting of large order (i.e., 2000) matrices commonly used in state-of-the-art structural analyses. Phase I of the system automatically generates matrices required in the thermomechanical analysis of structures by the Force or Displacement Methods including those necessary in joining, symmetric/antisymmetric r reaction disconnect, vibration, and stability analyses. Modules for converting continuous-to-discrete loads, and analytic-to-discrete geometry and for maintenance of a master case data file are also provided to minimize input data requirements. Phase II provides an abstraction capability to effect basic matrix algebra via the standard matrix operations (e.g., add, multiply, etc.), and several control operations (e.g., save and print matrices, etc.). The sequence of operations is user designated. Phase III provides for self-explanatory report form printing of matrix data resulting from Force or Displacement Method analyses, and a nominal graphical display capability for matrix and geometry data.
