Beschreibung

Rise of Microfilm explores the history of microfilm, a 20th-century technology that profoundly impacted information access and preservation. It examines how this invention, initially conceived in the 1800s, revolutionized various sectors, including libraries, archives, businesses, and intelligence agencies. The book argues that microfilm's adoption led to fundamental shifts in information management, democratizing access to knowledge and enabling efficient handling of vast data volumes. Microfilm provided a compact, durable, and cost-effective solution, addressing the challenges of managing paper-based records, especially during the World Wars.

 
The book uniquely investigates microfilm's technological evolution, its adoption across industries, and its socio-political implications. For instance, microfilm enabled institutions to preserve fragile historical documents and businesses to efficiently store critical records. The narrative begins with the origins of microphotography, then explores its historical context and impact, and concludes by considering its decline with the rise of digital technologies.

 
By using diverse evidence such as patents, archival documents, and oral histories, Rise of Microfilm presents a comprehensive account of this transformative technology and its enduring legacy.

    The Dead Sea Scrolls preserved fifteen copies of a book most Christians have never heard of. The Ethiopian church never stopped reading it. 
    The Book of Jubilees opens on Sinai — but not the Sinai you know. An angel arrives. Not to deliver the Ten Commandments. To dictate something older: the complete history of creation, organized according to a fifty-year jubilee cycle, grounded in a 364-day solar calendar written on heavenly tablets before the world began. 
    Fifteen Hebrew manuscripts were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls — more copies than most books of the Hebrew Bible. The Qumran community cited Jubilees by name as canonical authority and broke with the Jerusalem Temple over the calendar it mandates. Paul's most puzzling claim in Galatians — that the Law was given through angels — makes complete sense once you know this book. So does the Hebrews Melchizedek Christology. So does the jubilee announcement of Luke 4. And so does the Ethiopian church's solar calendar, its fifty-five-day Lent, and its twelve annual feasts for each archangel. 
    The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church never lost Jubilees. It reads it as the thirteenth book of its Old Testament — the eternal Law, the angelic governance of nations, the jubilee structure of history, the solar calendar as divine revelation. These are the foundations of the world that produced both the Dead Sea Scrolls and the New Testament, preserved in Ge'ez because one church in the mountains of East Africa never broke the chain. 
    Jubilees and Sacred Time is Volume 3 of The Bible of the Ethiopians — the first comprehensive English-language series on the world's largest Christian Bible. Reading the New Testament without Jubilees is like reading Paul without understanding the Torah. 
    The angel told Moses to write from the beginning of creation. The Ethiopian church kept what Moses wrote. The Dead Sea Scrolls confirmed it was real. 
    It is time to read it.

    The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up became a #1 New York Times bestseller for simple reasons… 
    (Notice: This is a SUMMARY of Marie Kondo’s bestseller, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing) 
    Marie Kondo’s unique approach to tidying changes lives. Both her book, The Life-changing Magic of Tidying, and her Netflix series have caught the attention – and application – of millions. And those millions sing her praises. 
    How has this petite Japanese woman persuaded so many people to joyfully and eagerly do what parents have been begging their children to do for ages? Why are people posting pictures on Instagram and Facebook of neatly folded shirts and shorts, lined up in drawers like soldiers, awaiting the opportunity to be put to use by their owner? Is there any way that you, too, could implement her system in your own home and life? 
    Millions of people have learned from the woman The London Times calls “Japan’s preeminent guru of tidiness, a warrior princess in the war on clutter.” You’ll learn why you can’t seem to stay organized no matter what you’ve tried, in which order to tidy your items, and how to tidy them well (including the KonMari folding technique). You’ll come to understand how and why tidying up can revolutionize your entire life and build the ability to discern what brings you joy. 
    If you truly resonate with Marie Kondo’s concepts we implore you to buy her full audiobook once you’re done!
