	The WELL: Joshua Piven, "The Escape Artists"
		The minor-league ballplayer you profile, Josh, is an interesting exception in the book.
		No, Chuck retired from baseball after the 2006 season (after the book was already written) and, though keeping his hand in via coaching, has joined the fire department.
		However, don't forget that unlike everyone else in the book, his life has revolved around his escape (that is, baseball) since he was three years old.

	Book of Joshua - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in both the Hebrew Tanakh and the Old Testament of the Christian Bible.
		Modern critical scholars argue that Joshua was probably written in the late monarchic or early post-exilic age, either from the JEDP sources that they believe were responsible for the Pentateuch, or by one of the prophets of the eighth century BCE.
		The book of Joshua contains a history of the Israelites from the death of Moses to that of Joshua.

	Book of Joshua
		The Book of Joshua forms part of the Deuteronomistic History, the collective name given by scholars to the books of Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, 1 and 2 Samuel, and 1 and 2 Kings, all of which appear to have been compiled by the same editor or editors.
		Joshua is based on earlier sources, however; some parts of the text date from the premonarchial period.
		As long as these books contained, in the main, the only known accounts of the events they mention, there was some plausibility in the theory that perhaps these accounts were written rather to teach moral lessons than to preserve an exact knowledge of events.

		As well the Book of Joshua tells us that Moses assigned both the land of the Ammonites and the Moabites to the tribes, and that this land was parceled out by Joshua after the conquest was complete.

		In the book of Judges we are told that they could not defeat those iron chariots, and indeed, as you read along into the fourth chapter you find that the Israelites were being cruelly oppressed for decades by an enemy who were are told had 900 iron chariots.

		Joshua was the successor of Moses, and performed the same miracle in parting the waters of the Jordan that Moses did to enable his people to pass through the Red Sea.
		He not only subsidized the atmosphere to overpower his enemies, but he commanded the sun and the moon to stand still to lengthen the day and to lighten the night until this victory was complete.

	USCCB - NAB - Joshua - Introduction
		The purpose of the book is to demonstrate God's fidelity in giving to the Israelites the land he had promised them for an inheritance (Genesis 15:18-20; Joshua 1:2-4; 21:41-43; 23:14-16).
		The book closes with a narrative about the tribes east of the Jordan (Jos 22), a warning speech by Joshua (Jos 23), and a renewal at Shechem (Jos 24) of the covenant with the Lord, already affirmed there near the beginning of the conquest (Joshua 8:30-35).
		Like the books which precede it, the Book of Joshua was built up by a long and complex process of editing traditional materials.

		Once you know the day that someone receives a book, you know a lot more about them…they’ll probably read that book within two weeks and will be ready to get rid of it after that.
		One of the primary ideas in my new book, Designing for the Social Web is a similar kind of lifecycle, what I call the “Usage Lifecycle”.
		One of the problems I’ve seen over and over (and I’ve been guilty of this myself) is to recognize the stages while talking to people face to face, answering their questions, but then failing to bake that knowledge into the interface itself.
