Obama Takes Readers On A Compelling Journey From His Earliest Political Aspirations To The Pivotal Iowa Caucus Victory That Demonstrated The Power Of Grassroots Activism To The Watershed Night Of November 4, 2008, When He Was Elected 44th President Of The United States, Becoming The First African American To Hold The Nation's Highest Office. Reflecting On The Presidency, He Offers A Unique And Thoughtful Exploration Of Both The Awesome Reach And The Limits Of Presidential Power, As Well As Singular Insights Into The Dynamics Of U.s. Partisan Politics And International Diplomacy. Obama Brings Readers Inside The Oval Office And The White House Situation Room, And To Moscow, Cairo, Beijing, And Points Beyond. We Are Privy To His Thoughts As He Assembles His Cabinet, Wrestles With A Global Financial Crisis, Takes The Measure Of Vladimir Putin, Overcomes Seemingly Insurmountable Odds To Secure Passage Of The Affordable Care Act, Clashes With Generals About U.s. Strategy In Afghanistan, Tackles Wall Street Reform, Responds To The Devastating Deepwater Horizon Blowout, And Authorizes Operation Neptune's Spear, Which Leads To The Death Of Osama Bin Laden. A Promised Land Is Extraordinarily Intimate And Introspective--the Story Of One Man's Bet With History, The Faith Of A Community Organizer Tested On The World Stage. Obama Is Candid About The Balancing Act Of Running For Office As A Black American, Bearing The Expectations Of A Generation Buoyed By Messages Of Hope And Change, And Meeting The Moral Challenges Of High-stakes Decision-making. He Is Frank About The Forces That Opposed Him At Home And Abroad, Open About How Living In The White House Affected His Wife And Daughters, And Unafraid To Reveal Self-doubt And Disappointment. Yet He Never Wavers From His Belief That Inside The Great, Ongoing American Experiment, Progress Is Always Possible. This Beautifully Written And Powerful Book Captures Barack Obama's Conviction That Democracy Is Not A Gift From On High But Something Founded On Empathy And Common Understanding And Built Together, Day By Day. -- Provided By Publisher.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Social Sciences\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Government\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnited States\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eExecutive Branch\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Crown","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45260967739582,"sku":"1524763160-4","price":18.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used - Very Good","offer_id":45260967772350,"sku":"1524763160-3","price":20.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used - Acceptable","offer_id":45260967805118,"sku":"1524763160-5","price":13.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used - Like New","offer_id":49267361906878,"sku":"1524763160-2","price":27.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used - Poor","offer_id":49267361939646,"sku":"1524763160-6","price":10.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/91-6R0VxRiL.jpg?v=1754075837"},{"product_id":"1138786535","title":"Europe 1783-1914","description":"\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe third edition of \u003ci\u003eEurope 1783-1914\u003c\/i\u003e provides a comprehensive overview of Europe from the outbreak of the French Revolution to the origins of the First World War.

How Do Seemingly Normal People Become Participants In Genocide? Why Do Some Individuals Come To The Rescue Of Members Of Targeted Groups, While Others Just Passively Observe Their Victimization? And How Do Perpetrators And Bystanders Later Come To Terms With The Choices That They Made? These Questions Have Long Vexed Scholars And Laypeople Alike, And They Have Not Decreased In Urgency As We Enter The Twenty-first Century. In This Book, Prominent Social Psychologists Use The Principles Derived From Contemporary Research In Their Field To Try To She Light On The Behavior Of The Perpetrators Of Genocide. The Primary Focus Of This Volume Is On The Holocaust, Or The Jewish Catastrophe Of The 1930s An 1940s, But The Conclusions Reached Have Relevance For Attempts To Understand Any Episode Of Mass Killing. Among The Topics Covered (and Summarized In The Epilogue) Are How Crises And Difidult Life Conditions Might Set The Stage For Violent Intergroup Conflict; Why Some Groups Are More Likely Than Others To Be Selected As Scapegoats; How Certain Cultural Values And Beliefs Could Facilitate The Initiation Of Genocide; The Roles Of Conformity And Obedience To Authority In Shaping Behavior; How Engaging In Violent Behavior Makes It Easier To For One To Aggress Again; The Evidence For A Genocide Prone Personality; And How Perpetrators Deceive Themselves About What They Have Done. The Book Does Not Culminate In A Grand Theory Of Intergroup Violence; Instead, It Seels To Provide The Reader With New Ways Of Making Sense Of The Horrors Of Genocide. In Other Words, The Goal Of All Of The Contributors Is To Provide Us With At Least Some Of The Knowledge That We Will Need To Anticipate And Prevent Future Such Tragic Episodes.

Was it murder or self-defense? For nearly a decade, the shooting and its aftermath reverberated throughout this hauntingly beautiful city of moss-hung oaks and shaded squares. John Berendt's sharply observed, suspenseful, and witty narrative reads like a thoroughly engrossing novel, and yet it is a work of nonfiction. Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman's Card Club; the turbulent young redneck gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the \"soul of pampered self-absorption\"; the...\u003c\/p\u003e Library Journal \u003cp\u003eIt's difficult to categorize this book. On one level, it is a travelogue, recounting former \u003ci\u003eNew York\u003c\/i\u003e magazine editor Berendt's eight years in Savannah, Georgia, that beautifully preserved hothouse of the South where eccentric characters like black drag queen Lady Chablis and charming con man Joe Odom blossom in rich profusion. It is also a true-crime tale, the saga of antiques dealer Jim Williams whose 1981 shooting of his sometime lover Danny Hansford in the historic Mercer House obsesses Savannah denizens; they watch as Williams endures four trials and is eventually acquitted, only to die of a heart attack a few months later, haunted (some say) by Hansford's vengeful ghost. Although non-fiction, Berendt's book reads like a novel (he admits he has taken 'certain storytelling liberties'), and this reviewer sometimes wondered where the truth ends and the fiction begins.

Public baths, in fact, were one of the few places where large numbers of Romans gathered daily in an informal context. They went to meet friends, drink wine, pick up sexual partners, and generally while away the idle afternoon hours. Despite the disapproval of the morally superior, the popularity of the baths endured for over a millennium and spread to every corner of the Roman world.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis book is the first to study the Roman public bathing experience primarily as a historical, social, and cultural phenomenon rather than a technological or architectural one. As a result, many issues are developed here that have to date been addressed only superficially. Fagan reconstructs what a trip to a Roman bath was like. He asks when and why the baths became popular at Rome, who built and maintained the abundant bathing establishments, and what sociological function the baths played in the Roman empire's rigidly hierarchical social order.\u003cbr\u003e\nTo throw light on these everyday topics the author deploys a wide variety of evidence, including literary allusions; the remains of the baths themselves, graffiti scribbled on bathroom walls; and, above all, formal inscriptions that throw light on the ubiquitous bathing culture.\u003cbr\u003e\nIn the course of this study Fagan challenges some widely held beliefs about baths, ranging from such broad notions of baths as palaces of public hygiene or places where the social identity of the bathers broke down, to more mundane matters such as the habitual donning of bathing costumes.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis volume will be of great interest for those studying luxury and public ostentation, municipal life, and the meaning of Roman leisure. Comparative evidence from other bathing cultures will also interest social anthropologists and historical sociologists.\u003cbr\u003e\nGarret Fagan is Assistant Professor of Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies, Pennsylvania State University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistory\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eWorld\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"University of Michigan Press","offers":[{"title":"Used - Acceptable","offer_id":49258296606910,"sku":"0472088653-5","price":17.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/41jU9-qkAaL._SL500.jpg?v=1754077580"},{"product_id":"0878406352","title":"The Origins of Moral Theology in the United States: Three Different Approaches (Moral Traditions series)","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eCharles E. Curran presents the first in-depth analysis of the origins of Catholic moral theology in the United States, focusing on three significant figures in the late nineteenth century and demonstrating that methodological pluralism and theological diversity existed in the Church even then.\u003cbr\u003eCurran begins by tracing the historical development of moral theology, especially as presented in nineteenth-century manuals of moral theology, which offered a legal model of morality including a heavy emphasis on canon law. He then probes the different approaches and ideas of three important writers: Aloysius Sabetti, a Jesuit who was a typical, as well as the most influential, American manualist; Thomas J. Bouquillon, first chair of moral theology at Catholic University of America, a neoscholastic who criticized the manuals' approach as narrow and incomplete for failing to address principles, virtues, and the connection to systematic theology; and clerical educator John B. Hogan, a casuist who developed a more inductive and historically conscious methodology.\u003cbr\u003eCurran describes how all three men dealt in different ways with the increasing role of authoritative teachings in moral theology from the Vatican. He also shows how they reflected their American context and the views of their own time on women and sexuality.\u003cbr\u003eSo little attention has been paid to the development of moral theology in this country that these authors are unknown to many scholars.

Coursing through Austerity Britain is an astonishing variety of voices - vivid, unselfconscious, and unaware of what the future holds. A Chingford housewife endures the tribulations of rationing; a retired schoolteacher observes during a royal visit how well-fed the Queen looks; a pernickety civil servant in Bristol is oblivious to anyone's troubles but his own. An array of working-class witnesses describe how life in post-war Britain is, with little regard for liberal niceties or the feelings of their 'betters'. Many of these voices will stay with the reader in future volumes, jostling alongside well-known figures like John Arlott (here making his first radio broadcast, still in police uniform), Glenda Jackson (taking the 11+) and Doris Lessing, newly arrived from Africa, struck by the levelling poverty of postwar Britain. David Kynaston weaves a sophisticated narrative of how the victorious 1945 Labour government shaped the political, economic and social landscape for the next three decades.Deeply researched, often amusing and always intensely entertaining and readable, the first volume of David Kynaston's ambitious history offers an entirely fresh perspective on Britain during those six momentous years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistory\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eWorld\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Bloomsbury Paperbacks","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45261654687934,"sku":"0747599238-4","price":3.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/81iDcunssXL.jpg?v=1754080564"},{"product_id":"0773522549","title":"Making Public Pasts: The Contested Terrain of Montreal's Public Memories, 1891-1930 (Volume 14) (Studies on the History of Quebec\/Études d’histoire du Quebec)","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eAlan Gordon Shows That While Individual Memory Is Crucial To Establishing And Maintaining Identity, Public Memory Is Contested Terrain - Official Customs And Traditions, Monuments, Historic Sites, And The Celebration Of Anniversaries And Festivals Serve To Order Individual And Collective Perceptions Of The Past.

Popular impressions of those years prior to the Second World War were shaped by the single outstanding personality of that conflict, Winston Spencer Churchill. Churchill depicted himself as a political prophet, exiled into the wilderness prior to 1939 by those who did not want to hear of the growing threats to peace in Europe. Although it is a familiar story, it is one we need to unlearn as the truth is somewhat murkier. \u003cbr\u003eThe End is Nigh is a tale of relentless intrigue, burning ambition, and the bitter rivalry in British politics during the years preceding the Second World War. Journeying from the corridors of Whitehall to the smoking rooms of Parliament, and from aircraft factories to summit meetings with Hitler, the book offers a fresh and provocative interpretation of one of the most crucial moments of British history. It assembles a cast of iconic characters--Churchill, Neville Chamberlain, Stanley Baldwin, Clement Attlee, Anthony Eden, Ernest Bevin, and more--to explore the dangerous interaction between high politics at Westminster and the formulation of national strategy in a world primed to explode.\u003cbr\u003eIn the twenty-first century we are accustomed to being cynical about politicians, mistrusting what they say and wondering about their real motives, but Robert Crowcroft argues that this was always the character of democratic politics. In The End is Nigh he challenges some of the most resilient public myths of recent decades--myths that, even now, remain an important component of Britain's self-image.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistory\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEurope\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eGreat Britain\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMilitary\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eWorld War II\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eWorld\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBook details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crowcroft, Robert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e hardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Illustrated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oxford University Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 320\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780198823698\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":49258321412286,"sku":"019882369X-4","price":14.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/71j93mwIF-L.jpg?v=1754080690"},{"product_id":"0300250711","title":"Amritsar 1919: An Empire of Fear and the Making of a Massacre","description":"\n\n\u003cb\u003eA powerful reassessment of a seminal moment in the history of India and the British Empire—the Amritsar Massacre—to mark its 100th anniversary\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Amritsar Massacre of 1919 was a seminal moment in the history of the British Empire, yet it remains poorly understood.

For the first time, seven Soviet admirals, along with leading naval historian Dr. Gary Weir, reveal the successful spying missions, the technological breakthroughs, the confrontations with U.S. forces, and the undersea disasters that killed many hundreds of sailors.With decades of experience on submarines or commanding submarine fleets, these seven senior admirals, many highly decorated, give us the inside stories. They detail the undersea successes such as the blockade of the U.S. submarine base in Bangor, Washington, and the innovative surveillance techniques they developed to trail the U.S. Sixth fleet in the Mediterranean. They reveal the development of the first nuclear submarines, profiling Dr. Peregudov, the father of the Soviet nuclear submarine and the internecine battles among Soviet bureaucrats that led to the deaths of many Russian sailors. And they give first hand accounts of deadly confrontations, such as the sinking of K-219, off Bermuda and the collision of USS Taurog and the Soviet K-108, including unpublished photos of the incident's aftermath. Rising Tide also reveals the many catastrophes and the occasional heroic rescues, and answers many questions surrounding the sensational loss of the Kursk, the most advanced vessel in the Russian fleet.Covering submarines from the first advanced diesel subs in the 1950s to the Kursk in 2000, with the authority only senior naval officials could deliver, Rising Tide is the complete story of the Soviet side of the gripping, secret life of the submariners in the Cold War.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngineering \u0026amp; Transportation\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eEngineering\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"Used - Poor","offer_id":45261683261630,"sku":"0465091121-6","price":12.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/71RwS4en7_L.jpg?v=1754080826"},{"product_id":"0195087070","title":"The Oxford History of the Biblical World","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eExamines The History, Art, Architecture, Languages, Literatures, Society, And Religion Of Biblical Israel And Early Judaism And Christianity.

Four years after No Future Without Forgiveness, Tutu's reflection on his role as Chairman of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission, comes this deeply personal book that Tutu calls \"a cumulative expression of my life's work.\" Each chapter begins \"Dear Child of God,\" and goes on to reflect on vulnerability, transfiguration and the human condition with winding anecdotes from Tutu's personal and public life, stories he delivers with his trademark humor and a deceptive simplicity. For example, when Tutu says we are all one family, what emerges is not some churchy optimism, but a highly developed theology of relationship, what Tutu has earlier called ubuntu (\"a person is a person through other people\"), with political as well as interpersonal implications. This book is highly readable, perhaps because, like other Tutu books, it is culled in large part from lectures and sermons delivered in Tutu's very public life. That this book aims for more than an afternoon tea becomes clear at its close: we are God's partners, Tutu exhorts. We are humanized or dehumanized in and through our actions toward others. Tutu grounds this appeal most concretely, ending with a list of Web sites from organizations that need more partners for their outreach.

Jensen comes across in volume I as a provocative but personable philosopher-activist who in lyrical and witty writing bemoans species extinction, sullied air quality, shrinking icecaps, expanding deserts and vanishing forests wrought by humans. But Jensen believes this culture will not undergo any sort of voluntary transformation to a sane and sustainable way of living. Civilization, he says in volume II, is killing the planet, so [c]ivilization needs to be brought down now. Jensen dwells through several chapters on the need to destroy tens of thousands of river dams, whether with pickax-wielding citizen armies or through the use of well-placed explosive charges; other chapters consider how simple it would be to paralyze the American capitalist system if small activist cells were to disrupt railway, highway, pipeline and other elements of commercial infrastructure. Jensen clearly feels a close connection to nature, writes movingly about the hoped-for return of the salmon, the trees, the grizzly bears. But he has become so disgusted with what he calls civilization that he has more compassion for the salmon than for his fellow humans.

Her Wise And Provocative Columns Helped Make Sense Of A Cultural Transformation.”—national Magazine Award Citation, 2018 “the Most Brilliant Voice On Feminism In This Country.”—anne Lamott, Author Of Bird By Bird From Rebecca Traister, The New York Times Bestselling Author Of All The Single Ladies Comes A Vital, Incisive Exploration Into The Transformative Power Of Female Anger And Its Ability To Transcend Into A Political Movement. In The Year 2018, It Seems As If Women’s Anger Has Suddenly Erupted Into The Public Conversation. But Long Before Pantsuit Nation, Before The Women’s March, And Before The #metoo Movement, Women’s Anger Was Not Only Politically Catalytic—but Politically Problematic. The Story Of Female Fury And Its Cultural Significance Demonstrates The Long History Of Bitter Resentment That Has Enshrouded Women’s Slow Rise To Political Power In America, As Well As The Ways That Anger Is Received When It Comes From Women As Opposed To When It Comes From Men. With Eloquence And Fervor, Rebecca Tracks The History Of Female Anger As Political Fuel—from Suffragettes Marching On The White House To Office Workers Vacating Their Buildings After Clarence Thomas Was Confirmed To The Supreme Court. Here Traister Explores Women’s Anger At Both Men And Other Women; Anger Between Ideological Allies And Foes; The Varied Ways Anger Is Perceived Based On Its Owner; As Well As The History Of Caricaturing And Delegitimizing Female Anger; And The Way Women’s Collective Fury Has Become Transformative Political Fuel—as Is Most Certainly Occurring Today.

As his bride, Lucie, was about to be sold down the river, Thornton Blackburn planned a daring―and successful―daylight escape from their Louisville masters. Pursued to Michigan, the couple was captured and sentenced to return to Kentucky in chains. But Detroit's black community rallied to their cause in the Blackburn Riots of 1833, the first racial uprising in the city's history. Thornton and Lucie were spirited across the river to Canada, but their safety proved illusory when Michigan's governor demanded their extradition. Canada's defense of the Blackburns set the tone for all future diplomatic relations with the United States over the thorny issue of the fugitive slave, and confirmed the British colony as the main terminus of the Underground Railroad. The Blackburns settled in Toronto, where they founded the city's first taxi business, but they never forgot the millions who still suffered in slavery. Working with prominent abolitionists, Thornton and Lucie made their home a haven for runaways. When they died in the 1890s with no descendants to pass on their fascinating tale, it was lost to history.

After the Civil War, the northern evangelicals split, eventually causing a conflict between fundamentalists and modernists. Only after the second World War would conservative evangelicalism gain momentum, thanks in large part to Billy Graham's countrywide revivals. Fitzgerald shows how the conflict between religious conservatives and others led to national culture wars and a Southern Republican stronghold, and how a new generation of evangelicals is challenging the Christian right by preaching social justice and the common good. Fitzgerald suggests that because evangelicals are splintering, America, the most religious of developed nations, will eventually look more like secular Europe. -- The great awakenings and the Evangelical empire -- Evangelicals North and South -- Liberals and conservatives in the post-Civil War North -- The fundamentalist-modernist conflict --The separatists -- Billy Graham and modern evangelicalism -- Pentecostals and Southern Baptists -- Evangelicals in the 1960s -- The fundamentalist uprising in the South -- Jerry Falwell and the moral majority -- The political realignment of the South -- The thinkers of the Christian right -- Pat Robertson: politics and miracles -- The Christian coalition and the Republican Party -- The Christian right and George W.

While the gospel is exploding throughout the global south, Western civilization faces militant assaults from aggressive secularism and radical Islam. Will the church resist the seductive shaping power of advanced modernity? More than ever, Christians must resist the negative cultural forces of our day with fortitude and winsomeness. What is needed is followers of Christ who are willing to face reality without flinching and respond with a faithfulness that is unwavering. Os Guinness describes these Christians as \"impossible people,\" those who have \"hearts that can melt with compassion, but with faces like flint and backbones of steel who are unmanipulable, unbribable, undeterrable and unclubbable, without ever losing the gentleness, the mercy, the grace and the compassion of our Lord.\" Few accounts of the challenge of today are more realistic, and few calls to Christian courage are more timely, resolute―and hopeful.

And how does it all end? \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this major new work, Fareed Zakaria masterfully investigates eras that have shattered and shaped humanity. Three such periods hold profound lessons for today. First, in the seventeenth-century Netherlands, a series of transformations made that tiny land the richest in the world--and created modern politics as we know it today. Next, the French Revolution, an explosive era that devoured its ideological children and left a bloody legacy that haunts us to this day. Finally, the mother of all revolutions, the Industrial Revolution, which catapulted Great Britain and the US to global dominance and created the modern world. Against these paradigm-shifting historical eras, Zakaria describes our current situation, unpacking the four revolutions we are living through now: in globalization, technology, identity, and geopolitics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs few public intellectuals can, Zakaria combines intellectual range, deep historical insight, and uncanny prescience to once again reframe and illuminate a turbulent present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Social Sciences\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocial Sciences\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eViolence in Society\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"W.

Combing the library of St. Catherine’s Monastery at Mount Sinai, they found a neglected palimpsest: beneath an unpreposessing life of female saints, they detected what remains to this day among the earliest known copies of the Gospels, a version in ancient Syriac , the language spoken by Jesus.\u003ci\u003eThe Sisters of Sinai\u003c\/i\u003eis the enthralling account of how two ladies in middle age and without university degrees uncovered and translated this text, bringing a great biblical treasure to world attention.\u003cbr\u003e Janet Soskice takes us, via the lives of Agnes and Margaret Smith, on a quintessentially Victorian adventure. It is partly a physical journey: when Westerners generally feared to tread in the region, the sisters Smith traversed the Middle East, sleeping in tents, enduring temperamental camels and unscrupulous dragomen, and facing uncertain welcome from monks deceived by earlier travellers. It is also a journey of the mind: in an era when religious faith was under attack, when new discoveries in science and archaeology were rewriting the accepted understanding of the Bible’s origins as well as those of humankind, a great contribution to knowledge was made by two whose only natural advantage was an astonishing gift for languages, modern as well as classical. Finally, and most movingly, it is a progress of the human spirit. Unwilling to let their lack of formal training or the disdain and jealousy of male scholars stand in their way, Agnes and Margaret became renowned scriptural authorities, in joyful pursuit of their lifelong passions for adventure and learning. Here, rousingly recounted, is the story of two unlikely and unsung heroines of the continuing effort to discover the Bible as originally written.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReligion \u0026amp; Spirituality\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChristian Books \u0026amp; Bibles\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBible Study \u0026amp; Reference\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew Testament\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eCommentaries\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistory\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eWorld\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTravel\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eTravel Writing\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiographies \u0026amp; Memoirs\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eTravelers \u0026amp; Explorers\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBook details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soskice, Janet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e hardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Knopf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 336\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781400041336\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Knopf","offers":[{"title":"Used - Poor","offer_id":45261842186430,"sku":"1400041333-6","price":15.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/512aRVct7ML._SL500.jpg?v=1754082986"},{"product_id":"0375424571","title":"Reading Jesus: A Writer's Encounter with the Gospels","description":"\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eReading Jesus\u003c\/i\u003e is a personal journey through the fundamental Biblical stories.

If you share that sort of fluid curiosity in sacred matters, take this book and eat it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistory\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorld\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReligious\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Pantheon","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45261842514110,"sku":"0375424571-4","price":6.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/41nY1PSAbEL._SL500.jpg?v=1754082996"},{"product_id":"1578267846","title":"Cowboy Wisdom: Over 200 Quotes about the Old West","description":"\n\n\u003cb\u003eAn inspiring collection of over 200 favorite quotations about the Old West.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom Roy Rogers to Will Rogers, Gene Autry to John Wayne, cowboys have always been a part of America.\u003cbr\u003e Now, \u003ci\u003eCowboy Wisdom\u003c\/i\u003e collects over 200 essential quotes from history, myth and culture about the defining era of the Wild West, including humor, wise words, and powerful quotations. \u003ci\u003eCowboy Wisdom\u003c\/i\u003e is great for the lover of the cowboy days, western movies, and Americana.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCowboy Wisdom\u003c\/i\u003e presents a carefully curated collection of fun, ribald, and classic quotes celebrating the spirit of the days gone by.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReference\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eQuotations\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Hatherleigh Press","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45261848150206,"sku":"1578267846-4","price":5.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/71PcsIz0n6L.jpg?v=1754083301"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/collections\/books-history-world.oembed?page=19","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
