Silenced: How Apostasy and Blasphemy Codes Are Choking Freedom Worldwide
ISBN: 9780199812288 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The fatwa against Salman Rushdie awakened many westerners to the danger of being accused of blasphemy in the Muslim world. As this eye-opening volume reveals, accusations of "blasphemy," "apostasy," or "insulting Islam" are increasingly used by authoritarian governments and extremist forces in the Muslim world to acquire and consolidate power. These charges, which traditionally carry a punishment of death, have proved effective in intimidating not only converts and heterodox groups, but also political and religious reformers. In his foreword, the late Indonesian President Wahid observes that...

Radical Islam's Rules: The Worldwide Spread of Extreme Shari'a Law
ISBN: 9780742543621 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 225 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A major feature of the rise of Islamism in the Middle East, Asia, Africa and parts of the West is the rapid growth of a starkly repressive version of Islamic shari'a law, often fueled by funds and support from Saudi Arabia. The central purpose of Islamists, including terrorists, is to impose such law in all Muslim lands, and then throughout the world in a new Caliphate. Despite its importance, this worldwide growth of extreme shari'a is under-documented and little understood. By a comparative study over the last twenty-five years of Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, Sudan, Nigeria, Malaysia, and...

A Nautical Story Writer: The Life and Works of Matthew Henry Barker, 'The Old Sailor'
ISBN: 9781845198398 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 498 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The fictional nautical story was extremely popular in the period stretching from the mid 1820s to about 1850. The best known writer in this field was undoubtedly Frederick Marryat, but the stories of Matthew Henry Barker (1790-1846), 'The Old Sailor', rivalled those of his contemporary in popularity. Both authors are in the first rank of writers of nautical fiction, but it is generally acknowledged that Barker's descriptions of the man-of-war's man, the forecastle Jack Tar, are without equal. Although several biographies of Marryat have been published, very little relating to Barker's life...

Blind Spot: When Journalists Don't Get Religion
ISBN: 9780195374377 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why do the media so often miss or misunderstand major news stories? One reason is that, in today's complex and pervasively religious world, understanding religion is vital in accurately reporting and interpreting current events. The authors of Blind Spot argue that all too frequently journalists and commentators do not take religion seriously and therefore fail to grasp the religious context of the news. Blind Spot's essays examine news stories reported by major media sources in which key religious dimensions were ignored, overlooked, or misrepresented. These stories...

A Complex Integral Realist Perspective: Towards a New Axial Vision
ISBN: 9781138803824 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book sketches the contours of a vision that moves beyond the dominant paradigm or worldview that underlies and governs modernity (and postmodernity). It does so by drawing on the remarkable leap in human consciousness that occurred during the Axial Age and on a cross-pollination of what are arguably the three most comprehensive integrative metatheories available today: Complex thought, integral theory and critical realism i.e. a complex integral realism. By deploying the three integrative metatheories this book recounts how the seeds of a number of biases within the Western tradition...

The Tail : How England's schools fail one child in five - and what can be done
ISBN: 9781781251676 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. At the heart of the debate about state-provided education in the UK lies a shocking fact: one child in five leaves school in England without basic skills in literacy and numeracy. Despite the best efforts of reformers and rapidly improving results in academies and elsewhere, even some of the best schools are struggling to help the 'tail' - the lowest-achieving twenty or thirty per cent of pupils. Throughout Britain, other schools, local authorities and even regions are trapped in a rut of low ambition and poor performance and seem unable to address the problem. The young people in the tail...

The Time Is at Hand!: The Rosicrucian Nature of Goethe's Fairy Tale of the Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily and the Mystery Dramas of Rudo
ISBN: 9780880104005 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1795 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe produced his tale of tales--The fairytale of "The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily," an extraordinary masterwork that is unique among Goethe's works.

Among those influenced by it was Rudolf Steiner, whose mystery dramas employ similar themes.
The authors begin by placing the fairytale against the background of Goethe's life and cultural setting. They then discuss its... In 1795 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe produced his tale of tales--The fairytale of "The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily," an extraordinary masterwork ...
