The art of Bonsai originated in China over 1,000 years ago and has been pursued and developed ever since. Bonsai specimens are ordinary trees and shrubs, crafted by a system of pruning roots and branches and training branches by tying with wire. A single bonsai may only be a foot tall, but looks identical to a full-grown tree. This book is essential to anyone wishing to pursue the ancient art, with invaluable advice to ensure the trees are kept alive and healthy. Bonsai outlines the constant and proper care that will allow the bonsai to blend with its container in a natural and aesthetically pleasing manner. Everything from watering to wiring, placement to pruning, and specialist advice on individual species such as maples and pines is fully explained. Learn about this special oriental art from an acknowledged expert and discover just what makes it such a rewarding hobby.

You Mean to Say You Don’t Know the Meaning of * Monophysitism * Hypostatic Union * Infralapsarian * Traducianism * Chiliastic * Pneumatomachian Cheer up! You don’t have to have thousand-dollar vocabulary in order to grasp the priceless basics of Christianity. Christianity 101 bridges the gap between biblical scholarship and people who want to understand the Christian faith. This book presents eight basic doctrines of Christianity--The Bible, God, Christ, Holy Spirit, Human Beings, Redemption, The Church, and The Last Things--in clear, simple language that gives seasoned Christians a fresh understanding of the Bible and its teachings and puts new Christians on familiar terms with Christian doctrine. Gilbert Bilezikian does not shape his analysis of these doctrines in the worn-out, rationalistic categories of older systematic theologies, but in vibrant, dynamic language designed to communicate biblical truths to contemporary believers.
