Pill
ISBN: 9781501341946 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. “You are what you eat.” Never is this truer than when we use medications, from beta blockers and aspirin to Viagra and epidurals—and especially psychotropic pills that transform our minds as well as our bodies. Meditating on how modern medicine increasingly measures out human identity not in T. S. Eliot’s proverbial coffee spoons but in 1mg-, 5mg-, or 300mg-doses, Pill traces the uncanny presence of psychiatric pills through science, medicine, autobiography, television,...

The Greeks and the British in the Levant, 1800-1960s: Between Empires and Nations
ISBN: 9781472467805 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the concept of the Levant as a component of the regional and international system during the age of imperialism. At its heart is a focus on the experience of Greek-speaking societies and, above all, the independent state of Greece that came into existence in 1830. A key sub-theme running through the account is the Anglo-Hellenic connection stemming from an enhanced British presence in the Eastern Mediterranean from the 1830s and 1840s, and in particular its relationship to the Greek polity. Within this framework the emergence of the idea of Greater Greece is integrated...

Global Culture: Consciousness and Connectivity
ISBN: 9781472423498 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The current discourse of globalization is overwhelmingly centred upon the interconnectedness, or connectivity, of the contemporary world; to the great neglect of the issues of global culture and global consciousness. With contemporary worldwide culture increasingly characterized by such themes as astronomy, cosmology, space travel and exploration, there is an increasing disjuncture between academic concern with connectivity, on the one hand, and culture and consciousness of the place of planet earth in the cosmos as a whole, on the other. This book addresses this deficiency from a variety of...

Helping Jesus Fulfill Prophecy
ISBN: 9781498228985 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 426 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It's obvious that Jesus fulfilled prophecies about the promised Messiah--or so the gospels make it seem. But the real story is more complex, and more compelling. In hindsight we can see that Jesus had help fulfilling prophecy. The gospel writers skillfully manipulated prophecies--carefully lifting them out of context, creatively reinterpreting them, even rewriting them--to match what Jesus would do in fulfilling them. The evangelists also used the prophecies themselves to shape the very stories that show their fulfillment. This book describes in detail how Christian authors ""helped"" Jesus...

Fundamentalism and Secularization
ISBN: 9781350228689 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Fundamentalism and Secularization, Egyptian philosopher Mourad Wahba traces the historical origins of fundamentalism and secularization as ideas and practices in order to theorize their symbiotic relationship, and how it is impacted by global capitalism and, more recently, postmodernism. This gives voice to an argument from within the Islamic world that is very different to that given platform in the mainstream, showing that fundamentalism does not arise normally and naturally from Islam but is a complex phenomenon linked to modernization and the development of capitalism in dependent...

Approaching the World's Religions, Volume 1
ISBN: 9781498295949 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Philosophically Thinking about World Religions is different from other works in the discipline today. It deviates from the typical approaches used for the study of world religions. Its goal is to engage readers in thinking hard about world religions, not about the data surrounding those traditions. By focusing on philosophical questions, each reader should be challenged to do their own investigations that may reveal the heart of these traditions. Another stance that this project takes that distinguishes it from other texts in the discipline is that it advocates an inclusivist perspective...

In a world in which everyone is ""Christian,"" evangelical theology provides a balanced position between fundamentalism and liberalism. While theological debates within the family will occur, to be evangelical is a breath of fresh air for many. However, we do not live in such a world. We do find ourselves living in a secular, global society. It is secular because no religious organization dictates how we live our lives. It is global for at least two reasons. First, our technology brings us immediately in contact...

Narratives of Disenchantment and Secularization: Critiquing Max Weber's Idea of Modernity
ISBN: 9781350327757 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What does it really mean to be modern? The contributors to this collection offer critical attempts both to re-read Max Weber's historical idea of disenchantment and to develop further his understanding of what the contested relationship between modernity and religion represents. The approach is distinctive because it focuses on disenchantment as key to understanding those aspects of modern society and culture that Weber diagnosed. This is in opposition to approaches that focus on secularization, narrowly construed as the rise of secularism or the divide between religion and politics, and...
