Summary

Age Chronology Methods explores how we determine the age of historical and geological events, objects, and civilizations. It's a comprehensive look at scientific dating, essential for reconstructing the past and understanding our world. The book covers a range of dating methods, from radiometric dating like carbon-14 dating, which relies on the predictable decay of radioactive isotopes, to incremental methods like dendrochronology, which analyzes tree rings. It also delves into relative dating, such as stratigraphy, which orders events based on layer positioning, highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of age determination, connecting physics, chemistry, geology, archaeology, and history.

 
The book starts with the concept of time and its measurement, then introduces radiometric dating, incremental dating, and relative dating techniques. Each section includes real-world case studies, such as dating ancient human remains or volcanic eruptions. The book uniquely emphasizes the importance of an interdisciplinary approach to understanding age chronology.

 
By examining these methods, the book empowers readers to critically evaluate evidence and appreciate the complexities of scientific dating.

    Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Finalist - Multicultural
God calls Latinas to lives of influence. He created his Latina daughters to partner with him, live into the incredible plans he has for eachof us, and walk in his grace and strength to help change this world. But many of us have heard cultural messages that make us doubt our adequacy. We have not seen many Latina women in positions of leadership, and we need more mentors and role models.
Natalia Kohn, Noemi Vega Quiñones, and Kristy Garza Robinson share their own journeys as Latinas and leaders. They find mentorship in twelve inspirational women of the Bible including Esther, Rahab, Mary, and Lydia, who navigated challenges of brokenness and suffering, being bicultural, and crossing borders. As we deepen our spiritual and ethnic identities, we grow in intimacy with God and others and become better equipped to influence others for the kingdom. The insights here will helpany who seek to empower Latinas in leadership.
You are not alone on this journey. Join your sisters and partner with our heavenly Father as you become the Latina leader God has called you to be.
