Book Description
The underlying concept of the paper is that the amount of precipitation required for the near-normal operation of the established economy of an area during some stated period is dependent on the average climate of the area and on the prevailing meteorological conditions both during and preceding the month or period in question. A method for computing this required precipitation is demonstrated.

Epoch
Author: Peter Carroll
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780992848828
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
" This really is a pantheon for the present day: up-to-date technowizard artwork, a commentary which soars over millennia of tradition, picking out what is useful and relevant at the present, and icons which sum up what deities from the whole span of Western and not-so-Western culture have cumulatively come to mean. This is a book to which goddesses and gods, historically so sensitive about their images, should be happy to belong." Professor Ronald Hutton - Fellow of the British Academy " Not content to release a new grimoire, the Chancellor of Arcanorium College has produced three. Oh, also, one of them is a Necronomicon. Elemental, Planetary, and Lovecraftian grimoires are joined by an accompanying tome of digitally and painstakingly rendered icons. The Portals of Chaos, and its Chaobala systemisation, marks a particularly cohesive collection of Carroll's work. But it also contains much exciting new material. Exploration of bi-planetary sorcery - a central component of Renaissance magic somewhat absent in modern occult discourse - is a particularly important feature. Epoch is a useful resource both for those just starting out and for experienced magicians. There is something here to excite and challenge occultists of many different dispositions and practices. " Alexander Cummins - Author of 'The Starry Rubric' "The enormous scope of the theory expounded within, coupled with the extraordinary pictures (which are better than anything of this ilk since Freida got down with her paintbrushes), provoke many thoughts as well as providing a neat summary of some complex ideas. Simultaneously a history and a prediction, it casts a spell covering spacetime and beyond, allowing your magick to have results." Nikki Wyrd -Author of 'The Book of Baphomet' Pulled together, it is a fantastic cohesion of ideas in need of cohering, doubly so because the cohesion makes no claims to antiquity and doesn't have to fit with either Neoplatonic emanations or Sanskrit body centres. Getting your head around the Chaobala is getting your head around a substantially updated magical cosmology. If that kind of thing is your jam, this kind of book is your toast. Gordon White - Runesoup Without a doubt, the Epoch will have a great influence on the chaos magick paradigm and modern magick in general for years to come. I think every magician, even if they have their own correspondences, should examine the Chaobola system for its elegance and breadth. James Wilber - Scroll of Thoth

Sociology and Organization Theory
Author: John Hassard
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521484589
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
It has been claimed that organization theory is in a state of crisis. This book traces the history of the orthodox systems theory paradigm in organization studies from its foundations to its recent deconstruction by postmodernists. The analysis offers general support for the "sociology-in-crisis" thesis, but takes issue with one of its main propositions, that paradigms are incommensurable. It is argued that paradigms are porous rather than hermetic phenomena, a fact that has profound implications for the theory building process.
