Although the word ‘worship’ features extensively in Scripture, it is difficult to find a Bible verse that could be used as a definition. The general feeling is that it is more easily experienced than explained!This simple, biblical, practical and concise study by Jack Hay explains the purpose and significance of worship and goes back to the first mention of worship in our Bible. The author gives good guidance on how we should prepare for worship, and provides “case studies” of examples of acts of worship that took place in Scripture. Some chapters are devoted to explaining the institution of the Lord’s Supper and explain the reasons why we should follow this command given to us by the Lord Jesus Himself.Whilst this book is not an exhaustive study, it will be a challenge to those interested in deepening their understanding and will help reconnect to the real purpose and meaning of worship.

This open access book serves as a reference for the key elements and their significance of Klaus Hasselmann''s work on climate science and on ocean wave research, all based on a rigorous and deeply physical thinking. It summarizes the original articles (mostly from the 1970 and 1980s; some of which are hard to find nowadays) and brings them in a present-day context. From 1975 until 2000, he was (founding) Director of the Max Planck Institute of Meteorology, which he made to one of the world-leading academic institutions. He first made the issue of anthropogenic climate change accessible to analysis and prediction and later transformed climate science into a significant factor in forming public policy. The book is written by co-workers and colleagues of Klaus Hasselmann, who—many under his immediate supervision—joined him in this effort. With this background, they present the key achievements and assess the significance of these for the present state of knowledge and scientific practice.
